Three horses to include in a treble on Thursday

Storming George (2.25 Doncaster)

This six-year-old thrives at the track and can make a winning start in handicap company. Trained by Neil King, he took a bumper here last year and got off the mark over hurdles by 12 lengths at the course in December, having ran well in a deep Newbury contest before then. He was out of his depth in Grade 1 company last time, but a rating of 125 over hurdles could be workable.

Lunar Orbit (2.35 Huntingdon)

This four-year-old could be well-treated as he bids to keep his winning run going in the 2m novice handicap hurdle. Trained by Warren Greatrex, he's generally encouraging and put it all together when off the mark at Market Rasen last time. Some of the rivals behind him have held up the form with runner-up efforts since, and a rating of 108 is feasible.

Gentleman Bill (3.35 Doncaster)

This eight-year-old can shrug off top weight and get off the mark over fences in the 2m4½f handicap chase. Trained by Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero, he ran a fine race on chasing debut at Aintree behind Jordans Cross, who has won at Cheltenham twice since. He put behind a poor effort at Haydock when staying on to be third at Wetherby in December, and this trip may bring more out of him.
