3/1

Comment: Lightly raced point winner (2m4f, good to soft) who won easily over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) in March and was a promising second on last month's chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good), where he was clear with the 10-11 favourite; open to further improvement; firmly in calculations.

Comment: 9yo who returned to form to post two convincing wins over C&D (good) last month; also effective on good to soft ground; he's now on a career-high mark following an 8lb rise for last time, and this is a hotter race, but he had bundles to spare and could still be ahead of the handicapper.

15/2

Comment: Tailed off over fences last year on final two runs for Donald McCain and he wasn't back to his best over hurdles on last month's stable debut; however, he may have needed that run and this point, bumper and novice hurdle winner, who went close in a chase last May, is not written off.

Comment: No threat to his market rival at Tipperary (good to yielding) two months ago but beat the other 14; tongue tied that day but not this afternoon; has changed hands and left Tom Cooper; the form has received multiple boosts and he probably has a huge shout on this British debut.

Comment: Landed an Irish maiden point (good) in May and eight-runner bumper at Market Rasen (soft) eight weeks ago; now tongue tied first time; giving the weight away today seems to demand improvement but he was sent off 5-4 favourite last time and had to battle, so he remains one to take seriously, including with rain in the recent forecast.

Comment: Second foal; half-brother to low-grade hurdle winner Barra Blue; dam well beaten half-sister to winners Ruby Rambler (useful 2m hurdle), Sohgol (useful Flat) and two other Flat winners; stable usually does well in bumpers, though 0-11 in them this season; market can guide.

Comment: Developed into fairly useful chaser in May-July 2023, including one win over 2m7f here, but very lightly raced in the meantime; latest start ten days ago was his best run this term but he needs to build on that.

Comment: Mostly soundly beaten after three bumpers and ten hurdle races over a range of distances; wore cheekpieces last time; flimsy claims.

22/1

Comment: Third of seven off 6lb higher on handicap debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in May but tailed off there next time and pulled up on latest; has since had wind surgery and this is a step back up in trip.

Comment: Unexposed 6yo, beaten about 30l at big prices this April-June in her three hurdle races; hooded last time but not today; needs a huge change of fortune on this handicap debut.
