1	1 (1) (5/2 +0%) Milou Du Chenet		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(1) Milou Du Chenet 5/2, Ran to debut level in defying a penalty when winning a juvenile hurdle at Wincanton by 3 1/2l last time; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on S and GS; no easy task conceding weight all round but looks really useful. 2-2; remains to be seen where limitations lie; strong claims under double penalty.
5	5 (5) (9/2 +31%) Molly's Lad		4.5 9/2(+31%)																															(5) Molly's Lad 9/2, Improved from his debut but had too much to do when beaten 9 1/4l in a Listed NH Flat Race at Cheltenham last time. Effective at 2m1f and there is said to be plenty more to come now he goes hurdling. Promise in bumpers and he brings potential to hurdle debut; could be in the mix.
8	8 (8) (12/1 +64%) The Grayster		12 12/1(+64%)																															(8) The Grayster 12/1, Made too much use of and ran to form when comfortably held in a juvenile hurdle at Haydock last time. Effective at 2m but will need to find more if he is to get off the mark. Encouraging debut over C&D; failed to build on it at Haydock; not ruled out for a place.
7	7 (7) (25/1 -25%) Pippin's Legend		25 25/1(-25%)																															(7) Pippin's Legend 25/1, Made too much use of but ran well for a long way when beaten 10l into third on his mildly promising juvenile hurdle debut at Haydock. A tongue-tie is applied for the first time and some progress is expected. Third on hurdle debut at Haydock and holds each-way possibilities.
9	9 (9) (66/1 +0%) Capla Resdev		66 66/1(+0%)																															(9) Capla Resdev 66/1, Ran below form when tried in a tongue-tie and was well beaten in a maiden bumper at Uttoxeter on her latest outing. Effective at 2m1f but improvement is required as she switches to hurdling. Well beaten in both bumpers and a transformation is needed on hurdle debut.
6	6 (6) (80/1 +20%) Pink 'n Purple		80 80/1(+20%)																															(6) Pink 'n Purple 80/1, Did not find much when refusing to settle and was comfortably held in a 4yo hurdle at Newbury on his latest start. That run suggests he may need more time before showing his best. Unable to make an impact across his three starts, over hurdles on the last two occasions.

LTO Selection:

After an impressive debut at Bangor in November, MILOU DU CHENET brushed aside a penalty when following up at Wincanton the following month. Warrwen Greatrex's gelding is too hard to ignore in bidding to maintain his unbeaten status. Mustang Du Breuil won his only start in France and the unexposed four-year-old commands respect in representing powerful connections on his introduction to racing on these shores. The betting market will be informative where he is concerned. Pippin's Legend appears best of the remainder.

Milou Du Chenet is 2-2 and very much respected but MUSTANG DE BREUIL looks a promising recruit for Nicky Henderson and JP McManus.

4	4 (4) (7/4 +13%) Zoeman		1.75 7/4(+13%)																															(4) Zoeman 7/4, Ran to form when beaten 2l up in trip behind a well-handicapped rival at Ludlow last time, off a 1lb lower mark. Cheekpieces are fitted for the first time and he has been consistent since going chasing. Encouraging form switched to fences this term, good second at Ludlow most recently.
1	1 (1) (10/3 +26%) Malfoy Manor		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(1) Malfoy Manor 10/3, Stopped quickly when stepped up in trip after a wind operation and may not have stayed when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Warwick last time. Effective around 2m on soft ground, with stamina still to prove. Still a maiden but this second run since wind surgery may be the time to catch him.
3	3 (3) (7/2 +30%) Sanitiser		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(3) Sanitiser 7/2, Ran to form when beaten 5 1/2l into third in a handicap chase at Plumpton last time. Effective at 2m and consistent overall, though not the most resolute under pressure. Flat/hurdles winner who has posted consistent results since switched to fences.
2	2 (2) (5/1 +29%) Wings On Wheels		5 5/1(+29%)																															(2) Wings On Wheels 5/1, Ran to form when finishing down the field in a novice hurdle at Ludlow most recently. Returns from a short break, is effective at 2m–2 1/2m on soft ground, and looks a likely improver now handicapping up in trip over fences. Possible improver on handicap/chase debut; showed promise in Irish point.
7	7 (7) (15/2 +6%) Night Jet		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(7) Night Jet 15/2, Below form on his return to chasing when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Ludlow last time, possibly needing the run. Effective at 2m–2 1/2m, with a fair mark based on spring form. Has failed to back up the form of his account-opening win at Leicester.
10	10 (10) (14/1 -40%) Martalmix'jac		14 14/1(-40%)																															(10) Martalmix'jac 14/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Hereford on his latest start. Effective over 2 1/2–3m on varying ground conditions, but his overall profile remains inconsistent. Well treated on best form but isn't particularly solid on his results this season.
9	9 (9) (18/1 -50%) Carpe Diem		18 18/1(-50%)																															(9) Carpe Diem 18/1, Made mistakes and appeared to need the run when fourth, beaten 33l, in a selling hurdle at Leicester latest. Effective at 2m and a 3m point winner, but has yet to show much under rules. Modest effort in selling hurdle on return to rules; new headgear needs to help.
8	8 (8) (20/1 -67%) Misteroddsocks		20 20/1(-67%)																															(8) Misteroddsocks 20/1, Made too much use of when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Warwick last time. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time, the trainer is in form, but his efforts so far have been modest. Chance largely depends on how well he responds to first-time cheekpieces.
5	5 (5) (40/1 -150%) Zacony Rebel		40 40/1(-150%)																															(5) Zacony Rebel 40/1, Won by 2l off this mark here three starts ago but had no obvious excuse when ninth, beaten 32l, last time. Effective at around 2m4f, stays close to 3m, but remains inconsistent. Veteran whose course win in December is dubious form; soundly beaten since.

LTO Selection:

---

ZOEMAN has run well in defeat on all three starts since returning from a 574-day break in November. The first-time application of cheekpieces can help him to go one better than when second at Ludlow last time. Sanitiser hasn't been running too badly of late and is entitled to be in the mix, while Wings On Wheels is noted on his handicap/chase debut.

The withdrawal of Brother Boris, the initial selection, promotes ZOEMAN to first choice. Wings On Wheels is second pick.

2	2 (2) (7/2 +0%) Bridge		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(2) Bridge 7/2, Possibly bounced and may not have stayed when well beaten up in trip in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell latest. Had been in good form beforehand. Effective at 2m to 2m2f and consistent prior to that run. Career-best RPR on December's return from a long absence; may pay to forgive last time..
4	4 (4) (7/2 +0%) Ask Peter		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(4) Ask Peter 7/2, Returned to form down in trip 6 1/2l third in a handicap hurdle at Taunton most recent run; trainer in form; enjoys making it; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m5f, acts on Hy and G; further drop in trip may suit. Third on two of last three starts, without quite lasting home; return to 2m worth a try..
1	1 (1) (11/2 +0%) A Mere Bagatelle		5.5 11/2(+0%)																															(1) A Mere Bagatelle 11/2, Needed run down the field in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon most recent; effective at 2m-2m4f, acts on Hy and G; in good form for new yard before break. Not lasting out over 2m4f latterly; slow ground no issue but mark could be lower ideally..
5	5 (5) (12/1 +0%) Tommy Dillion		12 12/1(+0%)																															(5) Tommy Dillion 12/1, Too keen but showed a bit more when second beaten 16l back hurdling in a handicap at Fontwell last time. Returning from a long layoff. Effective around 2m on soft and good ground and might need this. C&D winner on heavy in late 2022; return to form switched to front-running tactics latest..
6	6 (6) (12/1 +0%) Sawpit Sienna		12 12/1(+0%)																															(6) Sawpit Sienna 12/1, Below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Taunton last time. Effective at 2m to 2m3f and acts on soft and good to firm ground. Can go well again. Return to 2m makes sense; over five years since her last win outside mares-only company..
3	3 (3) (13/8 +0%) Raffles Nobu		1.625 13/8(+0%)																															(3) Raffles Nobu 13/8, Ran to form when just tiring late on up in trip, finishing fourth beaten 6l in a handicap hurdle here last time. Effective at 2m and acts with cut. Yet to match French form but hinting at better of late. Ran right up to mark in a better, longer race here latest (soft); turn is surely nearing..

LTO Selection:

---

BRIDGE didn't appear to get home when tried over a longer trip at Fontwell last month and the six-year-old, who was just touched off at the same track the time before, has been found a suitable opportunity to get his head in front. Raffles Nobu has to be considered dropping back in trip after his latest fourth here, while Tommy Dillion completes the shortlist.

In career-best form in defeat two runs ago and with possible excuses next time, BRIDGE may deny the well-handicapped Raffles Nobu.

1	1 (1) (9/2 +10%) Blue Hop		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(1) Blue Hop 9/2, Had too much to do after being badly hampered early when third, beaten 10l, in a novice chase at Tramore last time. Effective at 2 1/2-3m on GS and G, on a good mark on UK hurdle form and should build on that effort up in trip. Seemed to lose confidence when badly hampered at Tramore, could be competitive.
12	12 (12) (9/2 +0%) Kilbrin Rocco		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(12) Kilbrin Rocco 9/2, Did it readily when landing a handicap by 2l off a 7lb lower mark at Clonmel last time, helped by his main rival falling when closing. Effective at 2m-2m4f on S and G, and arrives in good form over fences. Winning favourite on heavy ground at Clonmel last month, every chance off 7lb higher.
3	3 (3) (11/2 +8%) West Of Carrig		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(3) West Of Carrig 11/2, Improved on recent form when suited by a positive ride down in trip, landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Fairyhouse last time. Effective at 2m4f-3m on HY and GS, fairly treated and remains competitive. Five wins in points, improved on hunter chase form when winning a 2m5f handicap last month.
16	16 (16) (13/2 +7%) Toon Town		6.5 13/2(+7%)																															(16) Toon Town 13/2, Improved but looked in need of a stiffer test when beaten a short-head off a 2lb higher mark at Catterick last time. Coming off a short break, effective at 2-2 1/2m on S and steadily improving over fences. Beaten only a short head at Catterick last time, needs to step up on domestic form.
8	8 (8) (13/2 +28%) Mount Frisco		6.5 13/2(+28%)																															(8) Mount Frisco 13/2, Was a bit below form when back up in trip after being taken on up front, and was comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time. Effective around 2m-2m4f, now dropped to an attractive mark and hinting at better. Both wins were gained in January 2024, best runs lately have been with this rider aboard.
14	14 (14) (9/1 +18%) Tsavo Park		9 9/1(+18%)																															(14) Tsavo Park 9/1, Keen early and made too much use of when travelling well and doing best of those forcing the pace, finishing fourth beaten 16l in a handicap hurdle at Down Royal last time. Effective at 2m, in form and worth marking up that latest effort so not ruled out at a price on chase debut. Has shaped like a possible future winner in recent handicap hurdle runs, may adapt well.
13	13 (13) (10/1 +0%) Luimneach		10 10/1(+0%)																															(13) Luimneach 10/1, Travelled well and returned to form but was out-battled late when beaten 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Down Royal last time. Effective at 2-2 1/2m on S and G, and on a good mark if building on that run. Ran his best race over fences so far when second at Down Royal, holds a leading chance.
6	6 (6) (10/1 -11%) River Vale		10 10/1(-11%)																															(6) River Vale 10/1, Scored by 2 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Naas two runs ago and then ran to form when eighth, beaten 15l, off 109 last time. Now 1lb lower, effective at 2-3m and remains in good form. Course winner over a longer trip, trip-versatile and relatively unexposed over fences.
10	10 (10) (11/1 +21%) Giant Haystacks		11 11/1(+21%)																															(10) Giant Haystacks 11/1, Made a modest chase debut when well beaten in a beginners chase at Fairyhouse last time. Effective at around 2 1/2m, but looks likely to need more time and experience over fences before showing his best. Showed good hurdles form in late-2024, tailed off on chasing debut at Fairyhouse.
17	17 (17) (14/1 -17%) Ernie From Nurney		14 14/1(-17%)																															(17) Ernie From Nurney 14/1, Made too much use of when fourth, beaten 26l, in a handicap chase at Punchestown last time. Effective at 2m and suited by plenty of cut, but may need a drop back in trip to show his best. First reserve, not badly handicapped relative to his best hurdles form, needs to improve.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +13%) Tell Us This		14 14/1(+13%)																															(7) Tell Us This 14/1, Likely found the ground on the soft side when well beaten in a handicap chase at Fairyhouse last time. Effective at 2-2 1/2m, he has had quick runs over fences and could improve in handicaps when conditions suit better. Moderate seventh behind West Of Carrig at Fairyhouse; needs to raise his game considerably.
15	15 (15) (14/1 +22%) Mic Drop		14 14/1(+22%)																															(15) Mic Drop 14/1, Was outpaced and unsuited by a drop in trip when finishing down the field in a beginners chase at Clonmel most recently. Returning from a short break, effective at 2 1/2-3m and likely to need a step back up in distance over fences. Point/bumper winner, no success over hurdles, well beaten in two beginners' chases..
5	5 (5) (16/1 -14%) Journey So Far		16 16/1(-14%)																															(5) Journey So Far 16/1, Improved on his final qualifying run but looked in need of further when well beaten in a beginners chase at Fairyhouse latest. Usually held up and coming off a short break, he is effective at 2-2 1/2m and may improve over longer trips in handicaps. Modest maiden over hurdles, has been set tough tasks in beginners' chases; hard to assess.
4	4 (4) (16/1 +36%) Femme Magnifique		16 16/1(+36%)																															(4) Femme Magnifique 16/1, Made mistakes and was comfortably outclassed when held in the Carey Glass Mares Novice Chase (Grade 2) here last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f on Hy and G, but her chase debut form may flatter her. Back in handicap company after stiff tasks lately, good handicap run three starts ago.
11	11 (11) (25/1 +0%) Quornofamonday		25 25/1(+0%)																															(11) Quornofamonday 25/1, Travelled well but did not find much after a bad error when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Fairyhouse last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and with his trainer in form, but he himself is currently out of form. Hard to win with (2-26), made mistakes last time, now back on his last winning mark.
2	2 (2) (25/1 +24%) Fenway Park		25 25/1(+24%)																															(2) Fenway Park 25/1, Had every chance but did not find much when finishing down the field in a handicap chase at Punchestown most recently. Effective around 2 1/2m on G but has yet to match his hurdle form over fences. Weak form relative to hurdles rating, no encouragement from his first handicap chase run.
18	18 (18) (33/1 -18%) Set The Tone		33 33/1(-18%)																															(18) Set The Tone 33/1, Made too much use of when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recently. Returning from a long layoff, effective at 2m on G, but her form has tailed off over hurdles and she has a bit to prove. Second reserve, ordinary form in handicap hurdles, lacks chasing experience, no recent run.
19	19 (19) (33/1 -18%) Another Ocana		33 33/1(-18%)																															(19) Another Ocana 33/1, Ran below form when wearing first-time cheekpieces and was well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2-2 1/2m and suited by some cut, but he is currently out of form. Third reserve, on a long losing sequence, his only two wins have been at Limerick.
9	9 (9) (66/1 -65%) Toofareastiswest		66 66/1(-65%)																															(9) Toofareastiswest 66/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Tramore on his latest start. Effective at 3m and suited by a sound surface, but his form is going the wrong way and he has something to prove at present. Pulled up on final two starts last season, same outcome on return to action at Tramore.

LTO Selection:

---

TOON TOWN has been running well in similar handicaps recently and should get involved in an open-looking handicap. He finished narrowly behind recent Clonmel winner Kilbrin Rocco in November but is now 10lb better off with that rival. Ex-hunter chaser West Of Carrig scored on handicap chase debut last month and is respected, despite a 6lb higher mark. River Vale won here on his last appearance over fences in November and is capable of being in the mix.

A course bumper for Willie Mullins early in her career, FEMME MAGNIFIQUE is suggested as an each-way option in an open race.

1	1 (1) (11/10 +37%) Count Of Vendome		1.1 11/10(+37%)																															(1) Count Of Vendome 11/10, Travelled well but threw it away with a late error as fitness gave out when second, beaten a neck, in a novice hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee last time. Off a short break, effective around 2m on soft and good ground, and should come on for that return. Two-time bumper winner who went close on hurdle debut at Bangor; leading claims.
8	8 (8) (6/4 +25%) Stanners Glen		1.5 6/4(+25%)																															(8) Stanners Glen 6/4, Improved despite defeat when third, beaten 3 1/4l, on hurdles debut in a novice hurdle at Taunton last time. This is his second run after a wind op, off a short break, effective at 2m-2m2f on a sound surface, with more to come if the ground is not too soft. Point/bumper winner who was third on hurdle debut and is open to improvement; key player.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +0%) Ribble River		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) Ribble River 14/1, Ran to form when third, beaten 3 1/2l, in a handicap at Haydock on his most recent run. Returning from a break, effective up to 12f on the Flat, and brings some promise to hurdles. Three-time Flat winner; may make a hurdler but might be best watched on stable debut.
6	6 (6) (14/1 +30%) Prince Of Clova		14 14/1(+30%)																															(6) Prince Of Clova 14/1, Bit keen, green and hung under pressure when making a modest debut, beaten 7l, in a maiden bumper at Newcastle. Off a short break and needs more to figure now hurdling. From a family his stable has done well with but others have more substance to their claims.
5	5 (5) (16/1 +11%) Not At That Price		16 16/1(+11%)																															(5) Not At That Price 16/1, Below bumper level when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow last time. Had been in good form previously, is effective at 2m on a sound surface, and was consistent in bumpers but needs more over hurdles. Well beaten on hurdle debut but bumper runner-up is not ruled out e-w back down in trip.
9	9 (9) (28/1 +15%) Victors Spirit		28 28/1(+15%)																															(9) Victors Spirit 28/1, Was held when falling late in a maiden hurdle at Taunton last time. Effective at 2m1f on good to soft ground but may need more time. Weakening when falling two out on hurdle debut; this 4yo is probably one for handicaps.
4	4 (4) (50/1 +38%) Made All		50 50/1(+38%)																															(4) Made All 50/1, Finished down the field when below debut level in a maiden hurdle at Newcastle most recently. Usually held up, with stamina still to prove over hurdles. Three-time Flat winner at an ordinary level; well beaten this winter on both hurdle starts.
11	11 (11) (66/1 +0%) Uptown Lass		66 66/1(+0%)																															(11) Uptown Lass 66/1, Green and made mistakes when needing the run on hurdles debut, finishing fourth beaten 9 1/2l in a novice hurdle at Huntingdon. Off a short break, effective at 2m-2m4f on a sound surface, and may need more experience over hurdles. Fairly encouraging fourth on hurdle/stable debut but needs another sizeable step forward.
3	3 (3) (66/1 +18%) Luckie Devil		66 66/1(+18%)																															(3) Luckie Devil 66/1, Pulled up in a novice hurdle at Ayr last time. Effective at 2m on good ground and could leave that debut effort behind with more experience. Encouraging debut in bumper last March but pulled up last month on sole hurdle start.
2	2 (2) (150/1 +25%) Different Drum		150 150/1(+25%)																															(2) Different Drum 150/1, Made a modest hurdles debut when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Huntingdon most recently. Likely the type to do better once sent handicapping in time. Modest on the Flat and tailed off at 300-1 on recent hurdle debut at Huntingdon (2m, soft).
10	10 (10) (150/1 +25%) Annie Mcgrath		150 150/1(+25%)																															(10) Annie Mcgrath 150/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Leicester last time. May need more time over hurdles and is probably one for low-grade handicaps if he is to come good. Down the field on hurdle debut at Catterick and pulled up at Leicester since.

King Esoteric has a striking pedigree and he is one to keep a close eye on. However, his sole start on the level in France hasn't really worked out and there is a hint of this being 'plan B' for the son of Kingman. There is less guesswork where COUNT OF VENDOME is concerned. A dual bumper winner, the Donald McCain-trained six-year-old was denied by just a neck on his hurdles debut at Bangor and can build on that here. Stanners Glen and Victors Spirit are others for the shortlist.

Point and bumper winner STANNERS GLEN is open to improvement on his second hurdle start and earns the vote ahead of Count Of Vendome

1	1 (1) (1/3 -11%) Paggane		0.333333 1/3(-11%)																															(1) Paggane 1/3, Outpaced and unsuited by the way the race developed when well held, beaten 8 1/2l into third in the Yorkshire Silver Vase Mares' Chase (Listed) at Doncaster last time. Effective over 2 1/2-3m, a smart 3m chaser and very useful hurdler who returned to her best for a new yard. Should be up to defying a penalty. Two wins at this level for current yard; return to right-handed course is ideal; top rated.
3	3 (3) (7/2 +46%) Jasmine Bliss		3.5 7/2(+46%)																															(3) Jasmine Bliss 7/2, Keen but rallied gamely and ran to form when beaten 1 1/2l into third on her chase debut in a handicap at Kempton last time, returning from a break. Effective at 2 1/2m; consistent and with more to come over fences, likely to improve for that run and to get further. Interesting contender up in class. Ran well at Kempton on chase/seasonal debut; open to further improvement; interesting.
2	2 (2) (9/1 +0%) All The Glory		9 9/1(+0%)																															(2) All The Glory 9/1, Keen early but travelled strongly and was out-battled late after looking the likely winner when beaten a length into third in a handicap chase at Windsor last time. Usually held up; effective at 2-2 1/2m and has a fair chase mark if building on that effort but bit more needed up in class. At the weights she has about a stone to find with the pick on ratings.
5	5 (5) (14/1 +0%) Ruby Island		14 14/1(+0%)																															(5) Ruby Island 14/1, Ran to form stepped up in trip but her stamina gave way up the hill when fourth, beaten 3 1/2l, in a handicap chase at Cheltenham latest. Comes here after a short break; effective at 2m-2m4f and generally a progressive sort. Northern raider; good effort when sent down to Cheltenham most recently; could go well.

Well beaten in a handicap chase at Ascot on her latest start and comes here after a short break; effective at 2-2 1/2m on decent ground, but this useful handicapper looks high enough in the weights and still needs more despite this weak race for the grade. Place possibilities on these terms but ideally needs drying ground (all wins on good).
4	4 (4) (40/1 +0%) Piper Park		40 40/1(+0%)																															(4) Piper Park 40/1, Needed the run when comfortably held on her hurdle debut in a novice at Chepstow last time. Trainer is in form but she returns from a long absence with a tongue-tie applied for the first time; effective at 2m and placed in a bumper, though looks out of her depth starting out over fences. Should make a chaser but this looks a difficult starting point; back from layoff.

LTO Selection:

---

PAGGANE bumped into two highly-rated rivals when filling third at Doncaster last time and that followed two victories at this level in November. The seven-year-old has plenty in hand here according to ratings and she is hard to oppose, despite a 4lb penalty. The recent Windsor third All The Glory may chase the selection home at the main expense of Jasmine Bliss and Ruby Island.

The clear pick on form is dual Listed scorer PAGGANE. Jasmine Bliss is the selection's most interesting opponent.

1	1 (1) (Evens +0%) Big Ticket		0 Evens(+0%)																															(1) Big Ticket Evens, Stopped quickly, below form when pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Ascot latest; effective 2m4f-2m6f, acts on GS and G; chance if bouncing back but may not want deep ground. Sets form standard on opening two hurdles starts; pulled up with an overreach last time..
2	2 (2) (5/2 +0%) Dropematthestation		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(2) Dropematthestation 5/2, Showed some promise on hurdles debut when fourth, beaten 16l, in a maiden hurdle at Warwick last time. Trainer is in form, returns from a short break, is effective over 2m–2m5f on good to soft ground, and is surely capable of better. Shaped well for a fair way in a Warwick maiden hurdle latest (2m5f); remains of interest..
6	6 (6) (11/4 +0%) Matthias		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(6) Matthias 11/4, Promising debut back from lay off behind pair of useful rivals 16l third in a novice hurdle at Chepstow most recent run; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m4f on S and GS; should improve for initial experience. Curled up only at the last on December's comeback from 724 days out (2m3f); chance..
4	4 (4) (33/1 +0%) Lifetime In Milan		33 33/1(+0%)																															(4) Lifetime In Milan 33/1, Needed the run when pulled up in a novice hurdle at Windsor on his latest start. A 3m point winner who has a bit to prove for now, but is surely capable of better. Big ask at Windsor last month (soft) on only start since Irish point win in 2024..
5	5 (5) (40/1 +0%) Lil Fortune		40 40/1(+0%)																															(5) Lil Fortune 40/1, £1,000 Soldier Of Fortune gelding; half-brother to Tedham, very useful at 21f; not an obvious one to play a role on debut.

Looks the type to do better once switched to handicaps in time. Unable to break out of rear on either start; looks one for moderate handicaps after this..

LTO Selection:

BIG TICKET had a valid excuse when pulled up at Ascot in December having suffered an overreach on that occasion. The five-year-old is much better judged on his two efforts prior, when runner-up at Aintree and at the Berkshire venue, and he is taken to strike at the fourth time of asking. Matthias appears the main danger following his third at Chepstow. Dropematthestation is best of the remainder.

With Big Ticket setting the form standard but pulling up last time, MATTHIAS is chanced to kick on from his comeback third.

5	5 (5) (15/8 +17%) Le Labo		1.875 15/8(+17%)																															(5) Le Labo 15/8, Fell when in front late on in a maiden hurdle at Cork last time and would have won. That effort boosted at the top level. From a top course trainer, his bumper win here has been well franked and he can make amends after a short break. Unlucky at Cork, four lengths clear of the useful Kazansky when falling at the last.
12	12 (12) (15/8 +16%) Laurets D'estruval		1.875 15/8(+16%)																															(12) Laurets D'estruval 15/8, Very promising on stable debut when second, beaten 4 1/2l, in a maiden hurdle at Limerick, just flattening out late after a lay-off. Ex-French with a top yard, he should come on for that run and will be winning soon. Runner-up in sole French outing in 2024 and at Limerick on Irish debut, strong contender.
1	1 (1) (4/1 +27%) A Piece Of Heaven		4 4/1(+27%)																															(1) A Piece Of Heaven 4/1, Ran to form when just tiring late on his return from a break, finishing third beaten 6 1/2l in a Conditions Race (Amateurs) at Leopardstown. Trained by a leading course yard, wears a tongue-tie for the first time, enjoys making the running and useful Flat stayer good get involved on hurdle debut. Useful stayer on the Flat, ran only once last year, makes hurdling debut at age of eight.
14	14 (14) (9/1 +18%) Maxfort		9 9/1(+18%)																															(14) Maxfort 9/1, Made a promising start when third, beaten 5l, in a maiden hurdle at Cork on debut. Effective around 2m1f, he should improve with that experience. 5l third behind the odds-on Willie Mullins-trained The Reverend at Cork stayed on well.
4	4 (4) (11/1 -10%) Jerry From Kerry		11 11/1(-10%)																															(4) Jerry From Kerry 11/1, Made his move too soon and stopped quickly when well beaten in a bumper at Leopardstown last time. Trainer is in form and, consistent in bumpers, he makes his hurdles debut and looks the stable first string. Beaten five times in winners' bumper since Ballinrobe success on good ground in 2024.
3	3 (3) (11/1 +8%) Good Show		11 11/1(+8%)																															(3) Good Show 11/1, Raced a bit freely and finished below form when beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Nottingham last time. Returns from a break and useful over middle to staying distances on Flat so not ruled out if fit for hurdle debut. Won twice early in Flat career for Keith Dalgleish, never found his best form last year.
11	11 (11) (12/1 -20%) Bulgaden Castle		12 12/1(-20%)																															(11) Bulgaden Castle 12/1, Improved on his final qualifying run when second, beaten 1l, in a maiden hurdle here last time. Effective at the trip and progressing over hurdles, he should remain competitive. Third behind market leaders at Naas, gave another solid display when second over C&D.
19	19 (19) (16/1 -33%) Jet To Monte Carlo		16 16/1(-33%)																															(19) Jet To Monte Carlo 16/1, Made too much use of when showing minor promise on debut before finishing well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown. A point winner from a shrewd yard, he should have more to come over hurdles. First reserve, point winner last March, low-key bumper run, well beaten in a maiden hurdle.
10	10 (10) (20/1 -25%) Playtime		20 20/1(-25%)																															(10) Playtime 20/1, Finished below his debut form when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last time. A Flat winner who is effective at the trip, he may have more to offer over hurdles but looks one for handicaps. Midfield in two strong maidens, Flat win was on good ground, not sure to enjoy it soft.
16	16 (16) (20/1 -25%) Premier Rogue		20 20/1(-25%)																															(16) Premier Rogue 20/1, Finished below his debut form when third, beaten 56l, in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Consistent in bumpers, his debut hurdle form has been franked and he has more to come. Consistent form figures but may be flattered, a very remote third at Fairyhouse last time.
15	15 (15) (20/1 +20%) Papanell		20 20/1(+20%)																															(15) Papanell 20/1, Ran to form when third, beaten 9 1/2l, in a bumper at Killarney last time. Consistent in bumpers and effective at the trip, he should improve now switched to hurdles. Made the frame in bumpers at Galway and Killarney last summer, ground was good both times.
6	6 (6) (25/1 -39%) Mont St Michel		25 25/1(-39%)																															(6) Mont St Michel 25/1, Made mistakes but showed minor promise when down the field on debut in a good maiden hurdle at Leopardstown. A useful stayer on the Flat and effective at the trip, he has more to come over hurdles. Ex-Ballydoyle, 93 on Flat, thrown in at the deep end for hurdling debut at Leopardstown.
13	13 (13) (33/1 -18%) Mart Lane		33 33/1(-18%)																															(13) Mart Lane 33/1, Ran to form when finishing down the field in a 4yo bumper at Fairyhouse last time. Returns from a short break, but his debut form has taken knocks and he needs to show more. Well beaten fifth on debut in a Gowran maiden hurdle, no improvement in a bumper.
8	8 (8) (100/1 -52%) Northern Ruler		100 100/1(-52%)																															(8) Northern Ruler 100/1, May have found conditions too testing when finishing down the field in a handicap at Galway last time. Usually held up, he returns from a break and is difficult to fancy. AW winner for Karl Burke, regressive in handicaps for this yard; no hurdling experience.
9	9 (9) (150/1 -20%) Ocean Of Dreams		150 150/1(-20%)																															(9) Ocean Of Dreams 150/1, Never threatened when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last time, continuing a run of poor form. A 1m winner on the Flat, he has plenty to prove over hurdles, including his stamina. Flat winner, jumped poorly on hurdling debut at Leopardstown, tailed off at Punchestown.
7	7 (7) (150/1 +0%) Navagio		150 150/1(+0%)																															(7) Navagio 150/1, Never involved when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last time. Was in decent form on the Flat last year but has stamina to prove over hurdles. Three-time Flat winner on yielding/soft, has struggled in two outings over hurdles.
2	2 (2) (150/1 -88%) Charlie Brow'n		150 150/1(-88%)																															(2) Charlie Brow'n 150/1, Ran to form when beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Galway last time. 14f Flat winner returns from a break and may just need this on hurdle debut. Effective at a modest level on Flat, won a 23-runner handicap over 1m6 last October.
17	17 (17) (150/1 -88%) Toor Beag		150 150/1(-88%)																															(17) Toor Beag 150/1, Was not knocked about and shaped very promisingly on debut when seeing out the trip well despite being well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Tipperary. Absent a long time since, he has more to come but looks one for handicaps. Fair effort at Tipperary on debut in April 2024, best watched after a very long absence.
21	21 (21) (150/1 -88%) Jumbos Jet		150 150/1(-88%)																															(21) Jumbos Jet 150/1, Made a modest debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel on her only start so far. She has plenty to prove. Third reserve, fair pedigree, not a bad effort on introduction at Clonmel, should improve.
20	20 (20) (200/1 -60%) Convincing		200 200/1(-60%)																															(20) Convincing 200/1, Failed to build on his debut when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last time. A Flat maiden effective at shorter distances, he needs to show more to feature over hurdles. Second reserve, placed form on the Flat, rated a modest 67, no threat in two hurdle runs.
18	18 (18) (200/1 +0%) Barrowline		200 200/1(+0%)																															(18) Barrowline 200/1, Never involved when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel last time. Likely one for longer trips further down the line. Triple-figure odds for three starts over hurdles, has run accordingly, safe to rule out.

LTO Selection:

---

LE LABO won a course bumper last March and has been unlucky in two hurdle runs. A first-flight casualty here in November, he was leading when exiting at the last at Cork in December, with the winner, Kazansky, landing a Grade 2 subsequently and finishing second in a Grade 1 last Monday. Laurets d'Estruval was weak enough in the betting when finishing second to a useful winner over Christmas and is capable of stepping forward. Bulgaden Castle caught the eye here last month and appeals most of the remainder.

The vote goes to LE LABO (nap) who was set to beat the smart Kazanksy when falling at the last at Cork.

Had been in good form beforehand, is effective at 2m, and while not top class, could make an impact in handicaps. 2-2 here and has potential off opening mark; bred to be suited by the step up in trip.
2	2 (2) (15/8 -25%) I'm A Lumberjack		1.875 15/8(-25%)																															(2) I'm A Lumberjack 15/8, Travelled well but was outlasted by a strong stayer when beaten 2 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Newbury last time. Effective around 2m4f, generally progressive, and his mark still looks fair. Runner-up at Newbury in December on second handicap start and he's one to consider.
6	6 (6) (4/1 +0%) Smokeringinthedark		4 4/1(+0%)																															(6) Smokeringinthedark 4/1, Returned to form back down in trip, benefitting from a return run when beaten 3 1/2l off this mark at Musselburgh last time. Effective from 2m to 3m and looks to have a good chance in this. Back on song when runner-up at Musselburgh last month and could be in the shake-up.
3	3 (3) (7/1 +65%) Geromino		7 7/1(+65%)																															(3) Geromino 7/1, Too keen but made a big effort back from a huge layoff when fourth, beaten 7 1/4l, in a handicap hurdle at Haydock latest. Effective at 2m–2m4f, is back below his last winning mark and could build on that reappearance. Returned from long absence with pretty encouraging run and he has a good record here.
4	4 (4) (12/1 +0%) Bluegrass		12 12/1(+0%)																															(4) Bluegrass 12/1, Travelled well and returned to form when beaten 3l off a 1lb lower mark at Taunton last time. Effective over 2m–2m3f, is in fair form, and sharp tracks are probably where he is best suited. Third at Taunton four weeks ago and he might not be far away if he's on another going day.
5	5 (5) (16/1 -14%) Huffin An A Puffin		16 16/1(-14%)																															(5) Huffin An A Puffin 16/1, Very promising on debut when a short-head winner in a novice hurdle at Newbury in March 2024. Has been absent for a very lengthy period, is effective around 2m4f, and makes his debut for a new yard with fitness a concern. Won on debut in March 2024; interesting to see how he goes in betting on first run since.

LTO Selection:

All of these have claims, but none more so than SMOKERINGINTHEDARK. Nicky Richards' gelding was second to a useful rival at Musselburgh last month off this mark and that form gives him a big chance here. I'm A Lumberjack also hit the crossbar on his most recent outing at Newbury and he could prove to be the main threat, ahead of Storming George and Bluegrass.

Topweight STORMING GEORGE was tailed off in a Grade 1 on Boxing Day but looked good here previously and can win on handicap debut.

7	7 (7) (11/4 +0%) Lunar Orbit		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(7) Lunar Orbit 11/4, Won a juvenile hurdle at Market Rasen by 3/4l on his latest start, benefitting from a drop in class. This was his second run after a wind operation and he makes his handicap debut with a consistent profile. Had wind surgery prior to success last time; looks well treated based on Flat mark.

A point winner who showed promise in 2m bumpers and could improve now starting out in handicaps. Creditable third in two novice hurdles since wearing a hood; solid chance.

5	5 (5) (11/2 -65%) Bushstreet Bowman		5.5 11/2(-65%)																															(5) Bushstreet Bowman 11/2, Ran to form when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Newbury last time.

6	6 (6) (11/2 +50%) Westlain		5.5 11/2(+50%)																															(6) Westlain 11/2, Had too much to do when ridden to see out the trip and was comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell last time. Effective between 2m and 2m3f and arrives in fair form. Juvenile hurdler who came up rather short in handicap last time.
8	8 (8) (15/2 -7%) Dissident		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(8) Dissident 15/2, Keen and below form when comfortably held in a stronger 4yo hurdle at Kempton last time. Effective at 2m, but needs this drop in class to rediscover his best form. Went too freely last time and may benefit from the return of hood.
2	2 (2) (16/1 -14%) Alidam		16 16/1(-14%)																															(2) Alidam 16/1, Finished down the field when making another poor effort in a maiden hurdle at Exeter last time. Effective around 2 1/4m based on French form, but has plenty to prove for a new yard. Needs to rebound, having achieved little in two starts for new yard.
9	9 (9) (25/1 +0%) Celine Man		25 25/1(+0%)																															(9) Celine Man 25/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter on his latest run after a very lengthy absence.

LUNAR ORBIT benefited from a wind operation when gaining a first success at Market Rasen in December and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the four-year-old had plenty more to offer with his attention now switched to handicaps. Escort'kheops hit the frame at Catterick just after Christmas and can enter calculations, while Bushstreet Bowman appeals as the type who can step forward on what he has achieved to date.

A few of the runners are juveniles and LUNAR ORBIT (nap) looks the pick. Eastern Shores is second choice.

Fifth in two Newbury hurdles (2m, good to soft) and looks one for handicaps after this..
3	3 (3) (40/1 +0%) Keno Black		40 40/1(+0%)																															(3) Keno Black 40/1, Found little when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter last time; wears a hood for the first time, is off a short break and looks more of a handicap type.

LARGY GO was purchased for 305,000 pounds at the Goffs Aintree sale in April following a point-to-point success and the five-year-old makes plenty of appeal on his Rules debut. West Along ran with plenty of credit when forcing a dead-heat for second in a Fontwell bumper on Boxing Day and is of interest on his hurdling bow, while any market support for newcomer Felix Maximus should be noted.

Despite the trip, big-money purchase LARGY GO ought to prove good enough on his hurdling debut, ahead of Hello Fortune.

1	1 (1) (5/2 +0%) Vitorio Piel		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(1) Vitorio Piel 5/2, Improved up in trip when second, beaten 1 1/2l, in an auction hurdle at Punchestown last time. Off a short break and effective at 2m to 2 1/2m. Bumper form has been franked and more is expected over hurdles. Much improved on second hurdles start, has to give weight away but he's a big player.

3	3 (3) (100/1 +0%) Bohemian Bay		100 100/1(+0%)																															(3) Bohemian Bay 100/1, Modest effort when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel last time.

5	5 (5) (150/1 +0%) Brave Endeavour		150 150/1(+0%)																															(5) Brave Endeavour 150/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Listowel last time after a very lengthy absence.

13	13 (13) (150/1 +0%) Woodie Campelltown		150 150/1(+0%)																															(13) Woodie Campelltown 150/1, Green and made mistakes when well beaten on a modest debut in a graduation hurdle at Punchestown. A longer trip should suit but significant improvement is required. Heavy defeats in Wexford bumper and Punchestown maiden hurdle, others appeal more.
14	14 (14) (150/1 +0%) Clarin Breeze		150 150/1(+0%)																															(14) Clarin Breeze 150/1, Found little when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork most recently. Effective at 2m but has plenty to find based on current evidence. Unlikely winner based on three maiden hurdle runs at Cork, look elsewhere.
15	15 (15) (150/1 +0%) La Rocca Lass		150 150/1(+0%)																															(15) La Rocca Lass 150/1, Stopped quickly when down the field in a bumper at Leopardstown last time. Effective at 2m but arrives out of form and needs a marked turnaround. 0-7 in bumpers, tailed off at huge odds both maiden hurdles, unlikely to be the answer.
11	11 (11) (8/1 0%) Puma's Dream		8 8/1(0%)																															(11) Puma's Dream 8/1, Improved up in trip when fourth, beaten 12l, in a maiden hurdle at Naas last time. Off a short break and now down in trip, with scope to make further progress. Improved for step up in trip at Naas, from a good family and Kennedy takes over, go well.
8	8 (8) (14/1 +36%) Leni's Law		14 14/1(+36%)																															(8) Leni's Law 14/1, Promising debut at a huge price when fourth, beaten 26l, in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse. Effective at 2 1/2m and debut form has been franked, so could progress a little. Ran on nicely for remote fourth on debut at Fairyhouse, could stay on late for a place.
9	9 (9) (150/1 0%) Nukie's Artic		150 150/1(0%)																															(9) Nukie's Artic 150/1, Up in trip when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork most recently and probably did not stay. Returning from a long layoff and yet to show anything of note. Soundly beaten twice and pulled up in three starts over hurdles, lacks a run, passed over.

French import FOU DE TOI commands maximum respect on Irish debut for Willie Mullins. His sole start in France saw him finish third in a conditions' hurdle at Auteuil in May 2024 and the two horses in front of him have won at Listed level since then. He holds an entry in the Turners at the Cheltenham Festival. Vitorio Piel has had three runs to date, all at Punchestown, where he landed a bumper and was runner-up in a maiden hurdle when last seen in November. That form brings him into contention. There was merit in Leni's Law's opening fourth at Fairyhouse and Puma's Dream's fourth in Naas.

Willie Mullins' French recruit FOU DE TOI, who holds a Grade 1 entry for Cheltenham, is taken to make a winning return

1	1 (1) (11/8 -10%) Mumford's Magic		1.375 11/8(-10%)																															(1) Mumford's Magic 11/8, Did his best work late when dropped back in trip and ran to form, beaten 3 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark at Uttoxeter last time. Effective over 2m4f-2m7f and can go well again. Runner-up at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve following long absence and there's lots to like.
2	2 (2) (6/4 -9%) Kalhandrion		1.5 6/4(-9%)																															(2) Kalhandrion 6/4, Improved when stepped up in trip when runner-up here last time. Effective over 2m4f-3m and in good form since switching to fences, shaping like a thorough stayer. He's left his hurdle form well behind since switched to fences and holds solid claims.
3	3 (3) (9/2 +10%) Kadjar Des Mottes		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(3) Kadjar Des Mottes 9/2, Outpaced and looking in need of a stiffer test when fourth, beaten 12l, in a handicap chase at Musselburgh last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f, with this longer trip possibly suiting, but needs more. 3m point winner who is open to improvement now upped in trip and he's one to consider.
5	5 (5) (13/2 +59%) Halpha Soleil		6.5 13/2(+59%)																															(5) Halpha Soleil 13/2, Again below his best when tried in blinkers, with the ground possibly too deep, when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Hexham last time. Off a short break and needs more on his first run after a wind op. On a handy mark but struggled towards the end of last year; returns after wind surgery.
4	4 (4) (50/1 -52%) Flemenstide		50 50/1(-52%)																															(4) Flemenstide 50/1, Unenthusiastic and carrying his head awkwardly when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Newbury last time. Absent for a very lengthy period; effective from 2m1f-2m7f and may do better as a chaser, but ability remains to be seen. Promising novice hurdler in 2021-22 but absent since February 2023; probably best watched.

KALHANDRION has run well in defeat on both starts since winning at Huntingdon in November and this appears to be an ideal opportunity for the six-year-old to return to winning ways. That said, Mumford's Magic displayed plenty of promise when second on his seasonal debut at Uttoxeter in December and is an obvious danger. The rest do not inspire much confidence, but Kadjar Des Mottes is the pick of them.

The Dan Skelton-trained MUMFORD'S MAGIC was a promising second at Uttoxeter following a long absence and can get off the mark.

2	2 (2) (8/11 +34%) Act Of Innocence		0.727273 8/11(+34%)																															(2) Act Of Innocence 8/11, The yard won this race last year and he was second when beaten 3/4l in the Introductory Hurdle at Newbury latest. Effective at 2m and open to progress over hurdles for his new top yard with latest form boosted at Grade 2 level. Can confirm form with Sinnatra. Solid form at Newbury this term includes a defeat of Sinnatra; major contender.
4	4 (4) (7/4 +0%) Sinnatra		1.75 7/4(+0%)																															(4) Sinnatra 7/4, Went clear with ease when improving to win a maiden hurdle at Sandown by 55l last time. Effective at 2m and, while a strong, slightly workmanlike type, his form looks strong and he is a player up in class though work to do to reverse form with fav. Ties in with Act Of Innocence on Newbury form; easy win last time; respected.
6	6 (6) (12/1 +14%) Lady Tadita		12 12/1(+14%)																															(6) Lady Tadita 12/1, Outpaced early but rallied, with too much to do at a sharp track, when second beaten 2 1/2l in the Byerley Stud Mares' Novice Hurdle (Listed) at Taunton last time. Trainer is in form and she remains progressive. Longer trip should suit and a player if conditions not too testing. Has built up a strong record (1112) against own sex; dual winner at Huntingdon.
1	1 (1) (14/1 -27%) Fresh Perspective		14 14/1(-27%)																															(1) Fresh Perspective 14/1, Ran to form but was ultimately well held when beaten 13l into third in the Claremont Novices' Hurdle (Listed) at Sandown last time. Trainer is in form and a tongue-tie is tried for the first time after a short break. Again goes clockwise, which doesn't look ideal, and needs progress on ratings.
3	3 (3) (16/1 -45%) Glance At Midnight		16 16/1(-45%)																															(3) Glance At Midnight 16/1, Outclassed up in grade when comfortably held in the Formby Novices' Hurdle (Grade 1) at Aintree last time. Effective at 2m and his earlier form has been franked, but he needs a drop in class. Penultimate effort is notable form; 2-2 at Huntingdon; interesting back here.
5	5 (5) (20/1 +20%) Tiddesley Wood		20 20/1(+20%)																															(5) Tiddesley Wood 20/1, Ran to form when beaten 9l into third in a novice hurdle at Doncaster on his most recent run. Effective between 2m and 2m4f, still green, but his profile suggests he is making gradual progress. Plenty more needed again up in class. Has something to find but is the only runner who has 2m3f form under rules.

Act Of Innocence looked an exciting prospect when getting the better of SINNATRA at Newbury before returning to the same track and tasting defeat when giving away 20lb to a smart three-year-old in the shape of Minella Yoga. However, Dan Skelton's gelding, who has since come out and won as he liked at Sandown last month, has every chance of reversing the form, especially as he has improved with each run over timber. Fresh Perspective is likely to appreciate stepping up in trip judged on his latest effort in a Listed contest at Sandown.

The Huntingdon factor makes GLANCE AT MIDNIGHT and Lady Tadita interesting alternatives to the Henderson and Skelton runners.

2	2 (2) (4/5 -10%) Officer Of State		0.8 4/5(-10%)																															(2) Officer Of State 4/5, Yard won this last year; travelled, did it comfortably, improved up in trip landing a handicap by 3l off a 6lb lower mark at Windsor last time; usually held up; effective 2m-2m6f, acts on S and G; more to come over fences. Readily won a competitive Windsor handicap last month and remains unexposed over fences.
1	1 (1) (3/1 +10%) Big City Roller		3 3/1(+10%)																															(1) Big City Roller 3/1, All but fell at the last when staying on and would have finished at least second in a handicap chase at Exeter last time. Effective over 2m4f-2m7f and handles cut. Unexposed as a chaser and should come on for that run. Very lightly raced 8yo who ran well in both chases; may still have potential.
3	3 (3) (5/1 +0%) Sherborne		5 5/1(+0%)																															(3) Sherborne 5/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 12l in a handicap chase at Wincanton latest; off a short-break; effective at around 2m4f, acts on any; back down to last win mark. Largely consistent chaser who will be suited by today's trip/ground; won't be far away.
4	4 (4) (5/1 +38%) Koenigsstern		5 5/1(+38%)																															(4) Koenigsstern 5/1, Didn't stay when comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on Hy and G; drop in trip a plus. Found 2m7f too taxing last month; player if judged on clear second over 2m4f in December.

With most of these having questions to answer, it is very hard to oppose OFFICER OF STATE. The seven-year-old has won two of his last three starts and that includes an impressive Windsor success last time. A 6lb rise for that win should be workable and he clearly gets the vote ahead of Big City Roller, who needs to improve on his seasonal debut last month. Sherborne edges out Koenigsstern to be next best.

Impressive at Windsor three weeks ago in just his second chase, OFFICER OF STATE (nap) can overcome a 6lb rise.

3	3 (3) (9/2 +0%) Timeless Treaty		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(3) Timeless Treaty 9/2, Likely found the ground too soft when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Navan last time. Effective at 2-2 1/2m on a sound surface, with form boosted at Listed level and fairly treated on summer form. Conditions a concern. Has failed to deliver on expectations in handicaps, needs to run up to his mark here.
4	4 (4) (9/4 +0%) Gin Tonic		2.25 9/4(+0%)																															(4) Gin Tonic 9/4, Improved from his debut when second, beaten 1 1/2l, pulling clear with a useful winner in a novice hurdle at Fairyhouse. Effective at 2 1/2m on yielding or good ground, with debut form nothing special but progressing and represents in form stable. Stepped up from a maiden win when second to a progressive type at Fairyhouse, respected.
2	2 (2) (10/3 +0%) Welonlyhavedone		3.333333 10/3(+0%)																															(2) Welonlyhavedone 10/3, Travelled well and returned to form when third, beaten 4 1/4l, in a novice hurdle at Navan on his latest run. Effective at 2-2 1/2m on good or yielding ground and back in form. Two failures to complete after a Galway maiden win, Navan third provides some reassurance.
1	1 (1) (11/4 +0%) Murat		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(1) Murat 11/4, Improved for debut experience when winning a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown by a nose last time beating a well touted rival. Effective at around 2m, the dual bumper winner is progressing over hurdles and looks a player up in class. Capitalised on a mishap to El Cairos to win a maiden, big chance if he handles the ground.
5	5 (5) (12/1 +0%) Sunny South West		12 12/1(+0%)																															(5) Sunny South West 12/1, Tired late when stepped up in trip and needed the run when beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Had been in good form prior, is effective at 2m on good ground and looks fairly treated. Smart bumper form including a defeat of Doctor Steinberg, not yet as good over hurdles.
6	6 (6) (15/2 +46%) Heron's Butler		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(6) Heron's Butler 15/2, Ran to form when second, beaten 4l, in a novice hurdle at Fairyhouse on his latest start. Effective from 2m to 2m7f on good or yielding ground, is progressive and probably sets the standard on ratings. Promoted course maiden winner, has run well in novice races here and at Fairyhouse.

LTO Selection:

GIN TONIC represents an in-form stable and this is a good trip for him. He won his maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Wexford in October and the runner-up has done plenty for the form in landing a maiden at Naas before finishing a close fourth in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham. Welonlyhavedone is a strong-travelling sort who should be involved at the business end with a rating of 130. Murat may have been a fortunate winner of a Leopardstown maiden hurdle over Christmas, but he did show battling qualities which will stand to him up in trip. Timeless Treaty and Sunny South West will have their supporters in a competitive heat.

The beneficiary of the fall of El Cairos at Leopardstown, MURAT could be in a slightly higher league than these rivals

Second to progressive subsequent winner at Newcastle last month; only 1lb higher here.
1	1 (1) (10/3 +33%) Gentleman Bill		3.333333 10/3(+33%)																															(1) Gentleman Bill 10/3, Returned to form up in trip 6l third in a handicap chase at Wetherby most recent run; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on S and G; generally consistent. Ran well in two of his first three chases and is eased slightly in grade today; big player.
5	5 (5) (4/1 +20%) Another Fine Mess		4 4/1(+20%)																															(5) Another Fine Mess 4/1, Returned to form down in grade, benefitting from stiff test down in trip landing a handicap by a head off a 4lb lower mark at Chepstow last time; effective around 2m, acts on S and GS; could improve again now chasing. 2-7 over hurdles; open to more improvement over today's longer trip and over fences.
2	2 (2) (4/1 +11%) Busty Boy		4 4/1(+11%)																															(2) Busty Boy 4/1, Travelled, tired after late error but still ran to form 7 1/2l third in a handicap chase at Ayr most recent run; cheekpieces first time; off a short-break; effective 2m4f-3m4f, acts on any; consistent and drop in trip not an issue. Ran well on both outings this season (2m4f/3m); tried in cheekpieces today.
7	7 (7) (5/1 +17%) Cuban Court		5 5/1(+17%)																															(7) Cuban Court 5/1, Did plenty early, not find much sixth beaten 29l off 102 last time, same mark here; effective 2m-2m4f, suited by decent ground; must bounce back up in trip. Dug deep to make winning chase debut here in December; not suited by Taunton last time.
3	3 (3) (9/1 -29%) The Winslow Boy		9 9/1(-29%)																															(3) The Winslow Boy 9/1, Outpaced, didn't look to enjoy track when pulled up in a handicap chase at Hereford latest; effective 2m, acts on S and G; still early days over fences, must bounce back. Placed on seasonal/chase debut; contender if able to rebound from last month's poor run.
4	4 (4) (12/1 +25%) William Of York		12 12/1(+25%)																															(4) William Of York 12/1, Outpaced, hinted at better but looked in need of stiffer test when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Wetherby last time; enjoys making it; best around 2m4f, acts on Hy and G; has tumbled in weights, could build on latest. Out of form this season but suited by this track and too well handicapped to rule out.
6	6 (6) (66/1 -65%) Clonakilty		66 66/1(-65%)																															(6) Clonakilty 66/1, Made mistakes when pulled up in a handicap chase at Uttoxeter latest; effective 2m4f, acts with cut; inconsistent. Well beaten on both starts for new stable this season (hurdle/chase).

CUBAN COURT made a winning start to life over fences here in December before not appearing to handle the tight nature of Taunton last time. A repeat of his penultimate effort may well prove to be enough to see him take a step back in the right direction. Empty Nest produced his best effort of the season when second at Newcastle and he is likely to be competitive along with Gentleman Bill.

A course winner over hurdles, GENTLEMAN BILL has shown clear promise over fences and can capitalise upon this slight ease in grade.

Returns from a short break, is effective at around 2 1/2m, and could find a bit more over this longer trip. Steadily progressive form figures since switched to handicaps; clear second last time.
4	4 (4) (2/1 -33%) Delta Blues Belle		2 2/1(-33%)																															(4) Delta Blues Belle 2/1, Outpaced and below form on handicap debut when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Windsor last time. A 3m point winner who likely wants further than 2m and may do better in handicaps when stepped up in trip. This much longer distance is a possible source of improvement.
6	6 (6) (10/3 +17%) Stamina Chope		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(6) Stamina Chope 10/3, Improved on recent form when landing a handicap by 4l off this mark at Ffos Las last time. Effective over 2 1/2-3m, back in form, and remains well treated on the evidence of her older efforts. In-form 10yo; won at Ffos Las returned to fences last week; due to go up 6lb in future.
5	5 (5) (4/1 +20%) Newmill Getaway		4 4/1(+20%)																															(5) Newmill Getaway 4/1, Ran to form but just flattened out late when beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle at Taunton on her return from a break. Had been in good form prior, is effective over 2m3f-2m7f, and should come on for that run. Form for new stable is encouraging enough to suggest she's can't be dismissed.
1	1 (1) (12/1 +14%) Jolie Baie		12 12/1(+14%)																															(1) Jolie Baie 12/1, Below form when finishing down the field in a stronger handicap hurdle at Newbury last time.

7	7 (7) (100/1 +20%) Dontworrywegotthis		100 100/1(+20%)																															(7) Dontworrywegotthis 100/1, May not have stayed when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Hereford on rain-softened ground last time. Has yet to show anything over a variety of trips and needs to find improvement. Has decidedly poor form.

STAMINA CHOPE is reliable, effective at the trip and could be too wily for her younger rivals. The 10-year-old was a ready winner over an extended 2m3f at Ffos Las most recently but also boasts a win over this trip among her four career wins over hurdles and fences. Reverting to timber shouldn't be an issue for this versatile character. Newmill Getaway probably needed the run on her latest start and would be a key player with a step forward. Briery Butterfly is the pick of the rest.

With another step forward seeming on the cards, BRIERY BUTTERFLY is taken to open her account. Delta Blues Belle is second pick.

9	9 (9) (50/1 +0%) War Memorial		50 50/1(+0%)																															(9) War Memorial 50/1, The yard won this race last year. He was never involved after a slow start when finishing down the field in a handicap here most recently. Effective at 7f but has lost his form of late. 0-17; on a workable mark again now but there's clearly plenty to prove at present..

ROARING RALPH and Amarachi have been resurgent and are the pair to focus on. The latter has shown improved form since stepping up to a mile and she would be dangerous to ignore from a competitive rating. However, Michael Dods' gelding competes off 16lb below his last winning mark and he has slightly more compelling claims on these terms. Volendam and Starshot also merit consideration.

An open contest where SCENARIO is given another chance to take advantage of some good recent form and get back to winning ways.

1	1 (1) (4/5 +27%) Osterberg		0.8 4/5(+27%)																															(1) Osterberg 4/5, Improved to get off the mark, strong at finish up in trip landing a handicap by 2l off a 6lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time; effective 2m4f-2m6f with cut; capable of better. Breakthrough win at Ffos Las (heavy) latest and today's even longer trip looks a plus..

Off a short break, effective up to 3m with cut but needs more. Offered little over C&D on latest comeback, albeit in a 0-120; quite a bit more is needed..

LTO Selection:

Osterberg got off the mark at Ffos Las last month and has to be respected as a result. That said, the strength of that form can be questioned so preference is for ATLANTIC POWER, who showed much more when second at Fontwell on Boxing Day and he is off a 1lb lower mark here. A better run can be expected from Hot Rod Lincoln after his seasonal return in December.

Up again in trip, convincing Ffos Las scorer OSTERBERG can shrug off a 6lb rise to win again.

Returns from a short break and has been effective over 2m to 2m4f with cut. Should progress again on the back of that effort. Keeping-on second in a 2m3f maiden and he's bred for this far; handicap debut.
2	2 (2) ( ) Monroes Hollow		0 ()																															(2) Monroes Hollow , Did not find much after being hampered, needing the run when beaten 10l in a handicap hurdle at Down Royal last time. Effective at 2m but needs to build on that reappearance effort. 0-10 under rules; beaten under 10l in a 2m1f handicap at Down Royal last time.
3	3 (3) ( ) The Little Yank		0 ()																															(3) The Little Yank , Travelled well and returned to form down in trip when landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Clonmel last time. Effective at 3m and remains well treated on old form. Recorded an eighth career success on his return to hurdling at Clonmel; up 5lb.
4	4 (4) ( ) Roc My Haarth		0 ()																															(4) Roc My Haarth , Below form when well down the field in a stronger handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective over 2 1/2m to 3m and suited by cut, with recent runs having been franked. Disappointing last time but second the run before and has a big effort in him.
5	5 (5) ( ) Snow Punt		0 ()																															(5) Snow Punt , Travelled well and improved when second, beaten 1 1/4l, in a beginners chase at Cork, possibly winning but for a late error. Effective at 2 1/2m, though a maiden becoming frustrating. Does return to hurdling off a generous mark and could go well. Back from a break with respectable chase runs; has run well off this hurdle mark before.
6	6 (6) ( ) Aine's Lad		0 ()																															(6) Aine's Lad , Better effort up in trip when second, beaten 7 1/2l, in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective over 2m to 3m but not one to rely on building on that revival. Second run back from an absence when runner-up at Punchestown; winner did it easily.
7	7 (7) ( ) Justicialism		0 ()																															(7) Justicialism , Made too much use of when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time after a short break, but current form leaves him with something to prove. Back-to-back hurdle wins came in 2022 and he's struggling to recapture that level of form.
8	8 (8) ( ) Milanaway		0 ()																															(8) Milanaway , Won by 2l off a 4lb lower mark at Punchestown three starts ago. Stopped quickly after a bad error when pulled up last time, having done too much too soon. Remains well treated but unreliable. Pulled up last time at Gowran; only 1-28 overall and she's worth taking on.
9	9 (9) ( ) Hello Johnjoe		0 ()																															(9) Hello Johnjoe , Had too much to do in a race dominated from the front when beaten 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Clonmel last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and may improve for this bit further. Closing third to The Little Yank at Clonmel; now sent further and may improve again.

Effective at 2m4f and has been progressive, with a bit more to come. Hit with a 10lb rise for the Fairyhouse victory but he looks on the upgrade.
11	11 (11) ( ) Walkmethroughit		0 ()																															(11) Walkmethroughit , Ran to form when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Now moves into handicaps and looks the type to do better in this sphere with that experience behind him. Poor pointer; no surprise that he couldn't get competitive in maidens; handicap debut.
12	12 (12) ( ) Island Mccoo		0 ()																															(12) Island Mccoo , Pulled up in a handicap chase here last time. Effective at around 2 1/2m but inconsistent, though now back on a winning mark if able to rediscover some form. Has struggled since winning a handicap chase off this mark last April.
13	13 (13) ( ) Cordal Boy		0 ()																															(13) Cordal Boy , Bled when well down the field in a handicap hurdle at Killarney last time. Returns from a break and is effective at 2m4f, but has yet to show anything of note. Six defeats include three handicaps (2m6f-3m) in which his closest finish was 22l.
14	14 (14) ( ) Rebel Cowgirl		0 ()																															(14) Rebel Cowgirl , Ran to form when 7l third in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective around 2m4f and has a chance if able to build on her latest couple of starts. Competitive last twice but running style casts doubts over her staying this longer trip.
15	15 (15) ( ) He Fitz In		0 ()																															(15) He Fitz In , Had every chance but ran below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Stays 3m well but has been inconsistent of late. Hasn't shaped like a winner waiting to happen returned to hurdles the last twice.

Cheekpieces go on for the first time, but he has yet to show anything. Not a bad run on handicap debut when beaten about 15l behind The Little Yank.
17	17 (17) ( ) Blossom De Mai		0 ()																															(17) Blossom De Mai , Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Effective over 2m4f to 3m and had been in decent form prior to that latest run. Possibilities on some of his form but last two runs have been particularly underwhelming.
18	18 (18) ( ) Fortunate Outcome		0 ()																															(18) Fortunate Outcome , Flattened out late up in trip after making a big move when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective at 2m2f but has yet to show much overall. Ran a little better in a first-time hood at Punchestown but that headgear is left off now.
19	19 (19) ( ) Nakassama		0 ()																															(19) Nakassama , Never put into the race when well down the field in a handicap chase at Clonmel last time. Returns from a break and is effective at 2 1/2m, but did not take to chasing. First reserve; winning hurdler; chasing the last twice; no forlorn hope if getting a run.
20	20 (20) ( ) Saunton Surf		0 ()																															(20) Saunton Surf , Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Naas last time. Effective over 2 1/2m to 3m but has a bit to prove for a new yard and needs to step back up in trip. Second reserve; British exploits offer hope but not her two runs in Ireland; opposable.
21	21 (21) ( ) Anodandawink		0 ()																															(21) Anodandawink , Made mistakes but ran to form when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and could improve now stepping up in trip in handicaps. Third reserve; outclassed in maidens when lengthy odds; now goes handicapping.

KANOG BAY appeals as a horse that is going to improve with racing. He made the breakthrough over 2m4f at Fairyhouse last month and this extra distance isn't expected to inconvenience him. Empire Walk was gambled on at Naas and made up a lot of ground on the run-in to finish second without laying a glove on the winner. Based on that effort, he ought to appreciate this longer trip. Snow Punt reverts to hurdles after a decent runner-up berth in a beginners' chase at Cork while Roc My Haarth's form has been a bit in and out, but he is capable of banking a cheque. The Little Yank and Aine's Lad shouldn't be ruled out.

After finishing strongly for second in his final maiden and bred for this longer distance, EMPIRE WALK could provide the answer.

4	4 (4) ( ) Pure Seduction		0 ()																															(4) Pure Seduction , Too keen but still made a promising hurdles debut when winning a maiden hurdle at Worcester by 1 1/4l last time. Returns from a very lengthy absence; effective at 2m, with more to come handicapping, though the lay-off is a concern. Won on hurdling debut in 2024; not seen since but she needs watching in market on comeback.
5	5 (5) ( ) I Am The Moon		0 ()																															(5) I Am The Moon , Below her hurdles level when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Ludlow last time. Effective over 2m4f to 3m and respected off this mark now switching back to hurdling. No joy over fences this winter but she needs watching in market back over hurdles.
6	6 (6) ( ) Rock On Cassie		0 ()																															(6) Rock On Cassie , Needed the run after a long absence when pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter on her latest start. Effective around 2m4f with cut but needs to show what ability remains. Lightly raced 10yo who has struggled since winning a maiden hurdle in 2022; opposable.

SCAVENGERS REIGN got off the mark at the fourth time of asking over timber at Wetherby on Boxing Day and James Owen's mare could have more to offer now making her handicap debut. October Hill found Listed company a step too far on her UK debut at Taunton and was much more competitive at the same venue last time. She commands respect, while Lets Go To Vegas appears best of the remainder.

Preference is for SCAVENGERS REIGN (nap), who won a Wetherby maiden on Boxing Day and is a big player off this mark on handicap debut.

3	3 (3) ( ) Final Surprise		0 ()																															(3) Final Surprise , Too keen and showed some promise on rules debut when well beaten in a bumper at Hereford latest. Returns from a short break and needs improvement. Bred to do better still, being related to a couple of bumper scorers.
4	4 (4) ( ) Loch Ness Pineau		0 ()																															(4) Loch Ness Pineau , Bit free in front but very promising on debut when second, beaten a neck, in a bumper at Hereford.

8	8 (8) ( ) Pretty Darn Quick		0 ()																															(8) Pretty Darn Quick , Outpaced and never threatened when finishing down the field in an Amateurs' bumper at Southwell most recently.

10	10 (10) ( ) Queen Marcia		0 ()																															(10) Queen Marcia , Outpaced and well beaten on her only start in a bumper at Newcastle. Returns from a long layoff and is likely to need more time. Absent since fading into sixth at Newcastle ten months ago.

Heavily backed when he made a winning debut at Lingfield, WILDE'S LEGACY is an attractive proposition despite picking up a 7lb penalty. The five-year-old won that race in an authoritative manner and could be progressive enough to follow up. Point-to-point winner Loch Ness Pineau was also well found in the market when second on his Rules debut in a similar event at Hereford. He is a logical danger to the selection on these terms. Power Of Silence and Midnight Escape are others with appeal.

The strongest contenders on bumper form are LOCH NESS PINEAU and Wilde's Legacy. Rules debutant Power Of Silence is interesting.

Effective at 5/6f with his best form on the all-weather, and a step back up in trip may help. Tapeta winner; in poor form in all five starts for his current trainer; much more needed..
6	6 (6) ( ) Dubai Magic		0 ()																															(6) Dubai Magic , Below form and not at her best when beaten 5 1/4l in a classified race at Chelmsford last time.

Effective at 6/7f and with his best form on the all-weather, he is not the most consistent but is capable. 6f/7f Tapeta winner; beaten favourite in this grade latest but could be involved..

Usually held up, drawn wide again, and effective at 6f on the all-weather, but has been struggling in handicaps of late. Placed just once in nine starts and beaten just over 4l on her three outings this winter..
12	12 (12) ( ) Trouble In Chicago		0 ()																															(12) Trouble In Chicago , A bit better effort but still poor when comfortably held in a novice at Newcastle last time. She has yet to show any ability. Well beaten at big odds in three maiden and novice events..

LTO Selection:

UP THE MONK, who is a previous C&D winner, ran zestfully to win in a first-time visor at Chelmsford last week. He could be tough to resist if the headgear continues to draw the best out of him. Autumn Angel is interesting in a race of this nature with a visor also tried, while Korroor was noticeably well backed on his most recent start and is also noted.

The suggestion is AUTUMN ANGEL, who's been thereabouts of late, acts here and it's hoped she can respond well to a first-time visor.

Effective over 2m to 2m4f and acts on any ground, remaining capable off this mark if able to get into a rhythm in front. C&D winner; below form over 2m4f last time but had begun this season with two good 2m runs.

Effective over 2m to 2m4f and acts on soft and good ground, with further progress possible as he bids for a hat-trick. In-form 9yo who has won his last two (soft/heavy) and is 6lb ahead of the handicapper.
5	5 (5) ( ) Chosen Bae		0 ()																															(5) Chosen Bae , Outpaced and never threatened when 30l third in a handicap hurdle at Hereford on her most recent run. Effective over 2m to 2m4f with cut, and although inconsistent, she could improve for the switch to fences. Out of form over hurdles this season; considered only if lively in betting on chase debut.

LTO Selection:

---

EL ROJO GRANDE racked up a double when scoring over 2m at Ffos Las last week and, given that he does not have to carry a penalty for that win, the nine-year-old is very hard to oppose now bidding for a hat-trick. The rest do not inspire much confidence at all, but Bobbi's Beauty and Angel's Dream are the pick of them.

It's hard to get away from EL ROJO GRANDE, who arrives in excellent form and escapes a penalty for his heavy-ground win on Friday.

Returns from a short break, has been effective at 2m, knew his job first time and should progress a little. Nicely bred but disappointed on debut at Punchestown, likely capable of better.
4	4 (4) ( ) Greenhills Of Cork		0 ()																															(4) Greenhills Of Cork , Forced to switch but made a very promising debut when 4 1/2l fourth in a 4yo bumper at Listowel. Trained by a top course yard, returns from a break, has been effective at 2m and his debut form was franked at Listed level, so should progress.

Fine second over hurdles on debut, disappointed lin bumper last time, hard to predict.

Has been effective at 2m but needs to find plenty more on what she has shown so far. No impact at big odds in bumpers at Clonmel and Cork, hard to make a case for on form.

This could prove to be an above-average bumper in time. GREENHILLS OF CORK catches the eye after a promising fourth on debut in a Listowel bumper last September. The fact that the three horses in front of him have all delivered since then, including the runner-up in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham, really strengthens the form. Gavin Cromwell introduces Barnpark, who won a point-to-point for Ian McCarthy. That race has thrown up winners, so a big run wouldn't be surprising. Similarly, Thinkitdontjinxit has switched to Gordon Elliott for his racecourse career after an easy point-to-point success at Ballycrystal and is another danger. Drombane and Bravewave are others that could get in the mix.

BARNPARK's Boulta win received a big boost at Southwell on Monday and he is taken to make a winning start under Rules

4	4 (4) ( ) Allegrino		0 ()																															(4) Allegrino , Suited by the step up to 7f, improving when winning a novice at Lingfield by 1 1/2l last time. Effective at 6/7f on the all-weather, she won cosily and may have a bit more to offer now handicapping. 7f Polytrack novice winner; fair mark for this handicap debut and she's a probable player..

Effective at 5/6f on the all-weather and remains a consistent, likeable type. C&D winner; front pair clear here (5f) when he was a close second latest; major player..

Trainer is in form and he returns from a break, having shown he is effective at 6f on the all-weather. 6f winner; couldn't get involved at Newcastle latest and not on an obviously lenient mark..
3	3 (3) ( ) Mr Juggles		0 ()																															(3) Mr Juggles , Suited by making the running and backed up solid form when winning a maiden here by 2l last time. Effective at 6f on the all-weather, he has been consistent so far and may have more to come in handicaps. Made all over C&D latest; initial mark looks fair and could improve again; contender..
5	5 (5) ( ) Must Be Ten		0 ()																															(5) Must Be Ten , Had a wide trip but came from off a fast pace when landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time. Effective at 6/7f on the all-weather and could have a say. Was held up when scoring at Wolverhampton latest; up 4lb and in grade but not ruled out..

LTO Selection:

---

BAKER BLUE, who comprehensively held Mr Juggles (third) when he won a novice event over C&D in December, is strongly fancied to put a winning stamp on this race. This is tougher than the nursery Must Be Ten landed at Wolverhampton and a 4lb rise demands a lot more of him. Therefore, the speedy Allegrino, a tenacious winner over 7f at Lingfield, could be a bigger danger with dropping in trip not expected to cause issues.

Back up in trip, BAKER BLUE still looks the one they all have to get past in this and is taken to record a second C&D success.

Effective at 10f, he is a big sort with more to come and this longer trip should suit. Looked inexperienced when odds-on debut second of four at Newcastle; seems sure to improve.

Bred to stay well, she could improve, but this looks a tough assignment. Never-dangerous debut sixth at Kempton 17 days ago; needs to take a major step forward.

SHABAB AL AHLI boasts a smart pedigree, being closely related to Group 3 winner Klondike and a half-brother to Queen's Vase hero Kemari, and cost 500,000gns at Tattersalls Book 1 in October 2024. Having clearly needed time just like his aforementioned siblings, Charlie Appleby's colt gets the vote at the expense of Asia Force, who finished second on debut at Newcastle. Patient Game heads the remainder.

Charlie Appleby's Frankel colt SHABAB AL AHLI is bred to be smart and he can make a winning start here to thwart Asia Force

1	1 (1) ( ) Lednikov		0 ()																															(1) Lednikov , Won this race last year. Below form when well beaten in a handicap here last time and looked in need of the run. Enjoys making it and is effective at 12–14f. Should come on for that latest effort. Five-time course winner but he was tailed off here last month and needs a major revival.
2	2 (2) ( ) Night Bear		0 ()																															(2) Night Bear , Ran to form when beaten a head off a 2lb lower mark here last time. Enjoys making it and is effective at 10–12f. Consistent of late and should be thereabouts if repeating that level. 1-27 on AW but he went very close off a reduced mark here (1m3f) last time; respected.
3	3 (3) ( ) Haliphon		0 ()																															(3) Haliphon , Ran to form when beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark here last time. Suited by 12–16f and easing in the weights. Can go well if able to build on that latest run. Record of 0-17 on AW but he was placed over 1m6f here last time; each-way claims again.
4	4 (4) ( ) Rosco Rogers		0 ()																															(4) Rosco Rogers , Ran to form when fourth, beaten 6l, in a handicap here last time. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time. Effective at 10–12f but needs more, even though his mark is falling. Ten-race maiden and he's been well held in his last four handicaps; down the list.
5	5 (5) ( ) Havachoc		0 ()																															(5) Havachoc , Made all at a good gallop and scored with something in hand when winning a classified race at Wolverhampton by 6l last time. Effective at 10–14f but more is needed back in handicap company. Won by 6l in classified event at Wolverhampton (1m4f); big player again back in a handicap.
6	6 (6) ( ) Abu Royal		0 ()																															(6) Abu Royal , Took a small step back in the right direction when recording his best effort since 2024, beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark here last time. Still not fully proven on this surface. Showed signs of a revival here (1m3f) two weeks ago and he's one to keep an eye on.
7	7 (7) ( ) Broadstone		0 ()																															(7) Broadstone , Did his best work late when running to form, beaten 2l off this mark here last time. Effective at 8–11f and remains on a competitive mark if able to reproduce that effort. Inconsistent 15-race maiden but he reached the frame here latest; could be dangerous.
8	8 (8) ( ) Argentum		0 ()																															(8) Argentum , Did her best work late when running to form, beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Kempton last time. Blinkers are tried for the first time and she has a chance if building on that run. 0-8 but she reappeared with promising third at Kempton (1m4f) last month; blinkers added.
9	9 (9) ( ) Stoneacre		0 ()																															(9) Stoneacre , Again ran to a moderate level when beaten 5l in a handicap here last time. Effective at 8–10f on this surface but needs more to be competitive in this company. 11-race maiden who has finished ninth here in his two runs this winter; passed over.
10	10 (10) ( ) Easter Sundae		0 ()																															(10) Easter Sundae , Another poor run when beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap here last time. Has not shown anything since returning from an absence and needs a significant turnaround in form. Similar type to Stoneacre, being 0-11 and finishing out the back here (1m3f) two weeks ago.
11	11 (11) ( ) Angelardo		0 ()																															(11) Angelardo , Poor handicap debut when tried in cheekpieces and well beaten in a handicap at Ayr last time. Returning from a break and has yet to show any worthwhile form to date. Has struggled in all four runs and he needs a transformation after a break.

LTO Selection:

---

The change of headgear to a visor has made a difference to NIGHT BEAR, with the nine-year-old's latest second here a fortnight ago a step in the right direction. A 2lb rise is unlikely to stop him from going one better. Haliphon was third at this venue over further last month and is likely to enter the reckoning along with Argentum, who sports blinkers for the first time after placing at Kempton last time.

Preference is for HAVACHOC, who came good with a dominant display in a classified event at Wolverhampton 20 days ago.

1	1 (1) ( ) Moon Over The Sea		0 ()																															(1) Moon Over The Sea , Had a wide trip and raced too keenly when below form, finishing ninth beaten 27l off a mark of 56 last time. Now 1lb lower here; effective over 9-14f, but a bounce back is needed. Won here last month; flopped at Wolverhampton since but caught wide; not written off.
2	2 (2) ( ) Smokey Malone		0 ()																															(2) Smokey Malone , Produced his best form since the spring when scoring with a bit in hand, landing a handicap by a length off a 3lb lower mark here last time. Effective over 12-14f and still on a competitive mark. Winning here for the fifth time when scoring 16 days ago; every chance he'll be bang there.
3	3 (3) ( ) Some Boy Me		0 ()																															(3) Some Boy Me , A no-show from off the pace when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Catterick most recently. Trainer is in form and he is usually held up; effective at 10f, but has a bit to prove. Struggling in juvenile hurdles but hints of promise in first two Flat handicaps.
4	4 (4) ( ) Duchess		0 ()																															(4) Duchess , Travelled well and ran to form when second at Kempton last time, racing over a slightly longer trip. Effective over 10-12f and in form, but has never won off a mark this high. 28-1 win here last month and backed that up when second at Kempton; key player.
5	5 (5) ( ) Free Pic		0 ()																															(5) Free Pic , Won a handicap by 2 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Newcastle three starts ago. Again ran to a moderate level when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle last time; off a short break and capable of better back on the Flat. AW win in October on last Flat start; could have a big part to play now back in this code.
6	6 (6) ( ) Nymphaea		0 ()																															(6) Nymphaea , Found little and ran well below form when finishing down the field in a handicap at Kempton most recently. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time, but she remains below a winning level. Lightly raced 4yo; market check advised, but needs to raise game in first-time cheekpieces.
7	7 (7) ( ) Busby		0 ()																															(7) Busby , Showed a step back in the right direction when beaten 4l off this mark at Newcastle last time. Effective over 9-12f, but more is needed even from this reduced mark. Multiple AW winner (once here) but this 11yo isn't easy to fancy on recent evidence.
8	8 (8) ( ) Yakhabar		0 ()																															(8) Yakhabar , Not involved after being slowly away when finishing down the field in a classified race at Newcastle most recently. Effective over 12-14f, but might need this outing. Below par on last three starts last summer; needs to turn things around on his return.
9	9 (9) ( ) Rampant		0 ()																															(9) Rampant , Below form when finding little, beaten 7l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Suited by 10-12f, but remains a longstanding maiden. He hasn't been at his best this year and remains a maiden after 33 starts.
10	10 (10) ( ) Apache Eagle		0 ()																															(10) Apache Eagle , Another poor run when a bad error did not help as he was well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Catterick last time. Has a bit to prove back on the Flat. Wasn't showing enough on the Flat towards the end of 2025 to suggest he's the one to be on.
11	11 (11) ( ) Karismatique		0 ()																															(11) Karismatique , Forced wide and with too much to do when beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Kempton last time. Effective over 11f, remains unexposed, and a longer trip should suit. Promising third here on second handicap start; return to Southwell could boost his claims.

LTO Selection:

---

SMOKEY MALONE returned to winning ways over 1m6f here a couple of weeks ago and a 3lb rise for that win may not be enough to stop him from following up in this moderate event. The recent Kempton second Duchess is likely to be the main threat to the selection, while Moon Over The Sea and Busby are others to note.

This could to go SOME BOY ME, who showed encouraging signs in November in his first two handicaps. Free Pic is second choice.

Effective over 7f and 8f, with most form achieved on the all-weather, and can be competitive again. Twice in the frame since ready win at Newcastle in November; probably in the mix again.
2	2 (2) ( ) Camino Del Ray		0 ()																															(2) Camino Del Ray , Below form when beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Redcar last time. Effective at 7f, but that run suggests he may need this to return to his best. Safely held in first two handicaps and absent since last July.
3	3 (3) ( ) Shaw Park		0 ()																															(3) Shaw Park , Below form and possibly needed the run when beaten 8l in a handicap here last time. Had been in good form previously, is suited by 7f on the all-weather, and may come on for that latest effort. Returned from five-month break with low-key 7f run here on Friday.

Effective over 7-9f on the all-weather, but a higher mark asks more away from his favourite track. Remarkably progressive 5yo who has won seven in a row at Newcastle.
5	5 (5) ( ) Bajan Bandit		0 ()																															(5) Bajan Bandit , Just about to form when third, beaten 3 1/4l off 72 last time and is 1lb lower here. Suited by 7f and 8f on the all-weather, and in fine form to go well again. C&D winner in early 2025; returns here after string of good efforts at Newcastle.
6	6 (6) ( ) Eve's Boy		0 ()																															(6) Eve's Boy , A bit below form when beaten 2 1/2l off a 3lb higher mark at Newcastle last time. Effective over 7f and 8f on the all-weather, but current form is only moderate. Yet to add to his 2yo win but was denied clear run last time and is on a good mark now.
7	7 (7) ( ) Forest Caper		0 ()																															(7) Forest Caper , Bit keen and just below form when fourth, beaten 7l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Effective over 7-10f on the all-weather, but this consistent maiden needs more to get off the mark. Close third over C&D off this mark last month but he's 0-16 and has become frustrating.
8	8 (8) ( ) Soames Forsyte		0 ()																															(8) Soames Forsyte , Produced his best form since summer when landing a handicap by a neck off a 2lb lower mark here last time. Usually held up, is effective over 7f and 8f on the all-weather, and remains on a competitive mark. Bounced back to form to cause 28-1 surprise over C&D last month; 2lb rise looks manageable.
9	9 (9) ( ) Finn Ironside		0 ()																															(9) Finn Ironside , Again below form when beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap here last time. Effective over 7f and 8f on the all-weather, but has been poor of late. Dual 7f winner last summer but subsequent form has been disappointing.
10	10 (10) ( ) Evocative Spark		0 ()																															(10) Evocative Spark , Not his best run when beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Newcastle last time. Effective over 6-8f on the all-weather, but remains 5lb above his last winning mark. Good winner on soft turf in October but others appeal more this time.
11	11 (11) ( ) Marry The Night		0 ()																															(11) Marry The Night , Ran to his best when landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here last time. Suited by 8f on the all-weather, likes this course and distance, and can go well. Back up from Class 6 today but has won two of his last three over C&D.

LTO Selection:

---

Aisling Oscar merits the utmost respect following seven consecutive wins since November, but his new mark demands much more from him here. As a result, preference is for MARRY THE NIGHT, who is only 3lb higher than when winning over C&D a couple of weeks ago. Soames Forsyte is another recent victor to note, while Bajan Bandit and Forest Caper complete the shortlist.

Unlucky not to finish much closer to the target on his latest outing, EVE'S BOY (nap) is taken to exploit a favourable mark.

Gained first win for current yard over C&D latest; up 7lb now but he's not taken lightly.
2	2 (2) ( ) King David		0 ()																															(2) King David , Bit below form when beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Kempton last time. Blinkers are applied for the first time, and he is effective over 7f and 8f, though currently on a losing run. In good nick until only sixth at Kempton latest; sort to bounce back in headgear change.
3	3 (3) ( ) No Knee Never		0 ()																															(3) No Knee Never , Did not stay when sixth, beaten 5l off a mark of 64 last time, and runs from the same mark here.

4	4 (4) ( ) Mini Mac		0 ()																															(4) Mini Mac , Again below form when down the field in a handicap here on his most recent start. Suited by 8f, but has lost form recently and needs to show much more. Ended 2025 out of sorts for Christine Dunnett; returns for new yard with lots to prove.
5	5 (5) ( ) Reginald Charles		0 ()																															(5) Reginald Charles , Ran to form with a good attitude when landing a handicap by a nose off a 3lb lower mark here last time. Returns from a short break and remains on a competitive mark. Off two months before C&D win; up 3lb but very much one to consider after another break.
6	6 (6) ( ) Fools Rush In		0 ()																															(6) Fools Rush In , Bit keen but ran to form second beaten 5l off 64 last time, 1lb lower here; trainer in form; effective 7-9f, suited by AW nowadays; capable off this mark. Good second at Wolverhampton latest given he went very freely; C&D scorer; well in the mix.
7	7 (7) ( ) Asian Journey		0 ()																															(7) Asian Journey , Ran to form when tried in a tongue-tie, beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark here last time. Effective over 6f to 8f and continues to ease in the weights. Back on track with C&D third latest; can go well again, eased 1lb with headgear retained.
8	8 (8) ( ) Valsharah		0 ()																															(8) Valsharah , Bit below form when making a wide trip and tried in cheekpieces, beaten 4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Returns from a break and remains a maiden. Placed plenty of times for Charlie Hills; interesting starting out for yard among winners.
9	9 (9) ( ) Samra Star		0 ()																															(9) Samra Star , No-show from off the pace when beaten 7l in a handicap at Newcastle last time. Effective over 7f to 9f, but she is not in her best form despite a dropping mark. Scored at Newcastle (7f) in October but her more recent form is far less encouraging.
10	10 (10) ( ) Rainwater		0 ()																															(10) Rainwater , Bit wide, strong at finish under modest handling beaten 1 1/4l off this mark here last time; effective 7/8f, acts on G and AW; capable of going well, can reverse form with No Knee Never. On a losing run but second of 12 to No Knee Never over C&D latest; must enter calculations.
11	11 (11) ( ) Simply Blue		0 ()																															(11) Simply Blue , Back to form with his best work late when beaten 1/2l off this mark here last time. Effective over 7f and 8f and it would be no surprise to see him go well. Right back on song with C&D third two weeks ago; very much one to consider off same mark.
12	12 (12) ( ) Reenie's Dream		0 ()																															(12) Reenie's Dream , Too keen despite a hood and below form when down the field in a handicap at Newcastle most recently. Returns from a break and needs to show a bounce back. Seven-race maiden; tried in hood when last at Newcastle in October on latest outing.

LTO Selection:

Cill Mocheallog impressed with a cosy win over C&D a fortnight ago. A 7lb rise still leaves him on a competitive rating based on peak form and, with Robert Havlin retaining the ride, another bold bid is likely. However, he was a well-held third behind REGINALD CHARLES when they clashed here in December and Geoff Oldroyd's gelding can uphold the form on 3lb better terms. Fools Rush In and Asian Journey are other key players.

Mick Appleby has his string in excellent nick and it could pay to side with his new recruit VALSHARAH to gain a breakthrough win.

King Of York ran a lot better than his odds suggested when filling the runner-up spot over a mile here on his most recent start and is respected, but LANDLORDTOTHESTARS makes the most appeal. James Evans' gelding failed to supplement his Wolverhampton triumph when second over the same C&D next time, but that was still a good effort and he looks the one to beat. Enpassant completes the shortlist.

The nod goes to KING OF YORK who signalled he is ready to garner a fifth C&D win when edged out here on his return from nine months off.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
