1	2 1st (2) (2/1 +71%) Derryhassen Paddy		2 2/1(+71%)																															(2) Derryhassen Paddy 2/1, Won sole start in Irish points/bumpers and again looked a bright prospect when making a successful hurdling debut in 7-runner novice at Uttoxeter (19.9f, heavy) 54 days ago. Upped in trip and seems sure to do better. 3-3 in a point, bumper and 2m4f maiden hurdle; likely to stay and has a bright future.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/1 -150%) Honky Tonk Highway		5 5/1(-150%)																															(4) Honky Tonk Highway 5/1, Listed bumper winner. Made hurdles bow after wind op when chasing home a smart one on return (Warwick 19f) and didn't need to improve on that when making all in 2m listed event at Sandown since. Looks a stayer so there should be plenty more to come now upped appreciably in trip. This big step up in trip is plausible but marked improvement is needed.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/4 +8%) Excello		2.75 11/4(+8%)																															(5) Excello 11/4, Showed improved form on second outing for Nicky Henderson when winning a 21f course graduation chase last December. Came unstuck in very strong Cheltenham handicaps but has found only one too good on both starts back over hurdles this season, latterly at this course. Should go well again. The clear pick on best chase form; hurdles form this season still puts him in the picture.
4	1 4th (1) (7/2 +22%) Clondaw General		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(1) Clondaw General 7/2, £150,000 purchase on the back of Irish point success and followed up in 4-runner novice hurdle at Worcester (23f) on Rules debut in October, forging clear after the last. Showed similar form up in grade when fourth at Cheltenham last month and remains with potential. 11l fourth of six in 3m Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham, so has stamina and plenty of ability.
5th	3 5th (3) (8/1 -100%) Dameofthecotswolds		8 8/1(-100%)																															(3) Dameofthecotswolds 8/1, Bumper winner who has improved again over hurdles this term, making it 3 wins from her last 4 in a novice at Doncaster (19.4f) last time. Highly likely to give another good account on this first try at 3m. Big improver; has had far more racing than three of today's rivals but she's in the mix.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

Dameofthecotswolds made it three wins from her last four starts at Doncaster in November, but she will need to prove her stamina over this longer trip. With that in mind, EXCELLO looks the way to go. Nicky Henderson's charge has filled the runner-up spot on each on his last two starts, including over 2m4f at this venue last time, and the step back up in trip could work the oracle. Derryhassen Paddy is another to consider.

An interesting novice and cases can be made for all 5. HONKY TONK HIGHWAY has looked a stayer in the making so it's reasonable to assume she'll improve plenty for the marked step up in trip and can take her hurdles record to 2 wins from 3 starts. Dameofthecotswolds has developed into a most likeable sort this season and is very much respected on her first try at 3m, while Clondaw General remains with obvious potential.

This could be as much about potential as form and unbeaten DERRYHASSEN PADDY is preferred despite making the greatest step up in class.

1	10 1st (10) (3/1 +50%) My Portia		3 3/1(+50%)																															(10) My Portia 3/1, 7-y-o mare who ran best race on the back of a 6-month break operating from 10 lb out of weights when second of 5 in handicap chase at Leicester (15.9f, soft) 43 days ago. Winner has boosted that form since and she's worth a second look with Brian Hughes booked. Bumped into a big improver when clear second last time; effectively 4lb lower here.
2	7 2nd (7) (10/3 +17%) Orbys River		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(7) Orbys River 10/3, Finished runner-up a couple of times over hurdles and bettered form showed in that sphere when making second chase start a winning one at Ayr (16.5f, heavy) 11 days ago, drawing clear between last 2. Possibilities under a penalty. Drew clear to win by over 8l at Ayr recently and is 3lb ahead of the handicapper here.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/1 -22%) Royal Deeside		11 11/1(-22%)																															(5) Royal Deeside 11/1, In good hands but no better than modest form in 8 starts over hurdles and shaped as if amiss sent chasing when pulled up at Warwick (20f, soft) 17 days ago. Needs to leave that in his wake. Placed off 2lb higher over hurdles in November but last month's chase debut was poor.
4	6 4th (6) (3/1 -9%) J'habite En France		3 3/1(-9%)																															(6) J'habite En France 3/1, Regressive over hurdles but proved a different proposition on fourth start in this sphere when readily landing 7-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon (16.5f, soft, 10/3) 15 days ago, driven out. Hit with a 10 lb rise for that and his task is to back that up. Rebounded with 17l win at Huntingdon this month; 10lb higher now; hard to predict.
5th	3 5th (3) (9/1 +0%) Flash Du Pistolet		9 9/1(+0%)																															(3) Flash Du Pistolet 9/1, Ex-pointer who showed something like chase debut form returned to 2m when third of 7 in handicap chase at Ayr 11 days ago, his jumping looking an asset. Has a race in him from this sort of mark on that evidence. Unable to lay a glove on Orbys River when third at Ayr but still considered each-way.
6th	2 6th (2) (12/1 -33%) Harel Du Marais		12 12/1(-33%)																															(2) Harel Du Marais 12/1, Long-standing maiden who was far disgraced when fourth of 9 in handicap chase at Hexham (15.6f) back in May. Mark has eased further ahead of this return from 8 months off and interesting if the market spoke in his favour. Absent since last spring's Hexham fourth but resumes on a tempting mark.
7th	8 7th (8) (13/2 +0%) Amarillobymorning		6.5 13/2(+0%)																															(8) Amarillobymorning 13/2, Runner up in an Irish point in April 2022 but finished well held all 3 starts in novice/maiden hurdles during last year. Had wind surgery ahead of this handicap/chase debut and it would look significant if the market spoke in his favour. Showed only glimmers of promise in novice hurdles but remains very unexposed; chase debut.
8th	1 8th (1) (25/1 -79%) Stony Man		25 25/1(-79%)																															(1) Stony Man 25/1, Maiden hurdle winner in spring 2022. Failed to complete next 5 starts over timber but revitalised initially by switch to chasing when fourth at Southwell back in April. Not so good next 2 starts though and now returns after 6 months off having switched yards. Tongue tie applied. Drops markedly in trip and sports new headgear combination on stable debut; interesting.
4	4 |U| (4) (33/1 -65%) Libor Lad		33 33/1(-65%)																															(4) Libor Lad 33/1, Winner of 2½m handicap hurdles in the mud at Uttoxeter and Doncaster last winter. Solid start in this sphere when runner-up at Stratford (19.5f) in October. However, pulled up both subsequent outings, weakening from 3 out on latest outing at Leicester 7 weeks ago. Cheekpieces back on. Second on chasing debut in October but pulled up twice since; has a point to prove.
11	11 |PU| (11) (12/1 +14%) Eric Carmen		12 12/1(+14%)																															(11) Eric Carmen 12/1, Irish point winner who capitalised on his falling mark over hurdles at Southwell (20.4f, heavy) in May. Exploits mixed since, including over fences but ran well back hurdling after a wind op when second back at Southwell on New Year's Day. Needs to build on that here. Ran well when second over hurdles this month but has a modest strike-rate under rules.
9	9 |PU| (9) (80/1 -60%) Barranco		80 80/1(-60%)																															(9) Barranco 80/1, Bumper winner for Stuart Crawford in 2021 but lightly-raced since and little to shout about in handful of hurdle starts for present yard. Has it to prove now his attentions switch to chasing. Pulled up in three hurdles since returning from long absence in December 2023; chase debut.

ORBYS RIVER left behind her chase debut effort at Bangor when scoring at Ayr recently and a similar performance on this occasion would make her tough to beat, even with a 7lb penalty to shoulder. My Portia ran well on her return to the larger obstacles at Leicester and is respected along with Amarillobymorning, who boasts an interesting jockey booking in Charlie Deutsch.

MY PORTIA looked an improved model on the back of a 6-month break when chasing home a next-time-out winner at Leicester 6 weeks ago and she could be worth chancing to confirm the promise of that run, operating from her correct mark. Last-time-out winners Orbys River and J'habite En France can also get involved if arriving in the same form. Amarillobymorning needs monitoring in the betting for clues now sent chasing from a basement mark.

A chance is taken on STONY MAN, who drops markedly in trip and sports new headgear on his debut for his up-and-coming new trainer.

1	1 1st (1) (5/2 -25%) Cloud Cover		2.5 5/2(-25%)																															(1) Cloud Cover 5/2, Useful filly has won over C&D. Would have gone close to landing Listed success at Dundalk on penultimate run (trouble in running) but made amends to win 16-runner listed race at Deauville (7.4f, 53/10) 34 days ago. Definitely of interest now back in handicap company. Scored over C&D on finals day last March; game Listed win in France most recently.
2	9 2nd (9) (25/1 +24%) Callianassa		25 25/1(+24%)																															(9) Callianassa 25/1, Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. 9/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this C&D 6 days ago. In good heart but this is a big step up in class and looks up against it from nearly a stone out of the handicap. Sole maiden in this field and she is almost a stone out of the weights.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/1 +10%) Staincliff		9 9/1(+10%)																															(3) Staincliff 9/1, Course winner who struggled at Listed level and then fared no better back in handicaps when sixth of 7 in a handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 9/2) 27 days ago. However there aren't many miles on the clock and she has place claims at a track she likes. Hasn't repeated the form of her August win but it's too soon to write her off.
4	6 4th (6) (9/2 +40%) Red Maids		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(6) Red Maids 9/2, 3-time C&D winner. Three wins from 17 runs last year. Latest win here in December, landing a hat-trick. Seventh of 10 in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 9 days ago but left with too much to do off a slow gallop, made smooth headway and ran on. No surprise to see her bounce back here. Record of 11137 since switched to this C&D, latest effort best forgiven.
5th	7 5th (7) (6/1 +25%) Ghaihaban		6 6/1(+25%)																															(7) Ghaihaban 6/1, Career best when winning 9-runner novice (5/1) at Redcar (7f, good) in September, running on. Made handicap and AW debut after short break when third of 5 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) last month and shaped respectably (keen early) despite carrying head slightly awkwardly. Chance back at 7f today. Has form figures of 2321 over 7f; may have more to offer back at this distance.
6th	8 6th (8) (33/1 -200%) Liv My Life		33 33/1(-200%)																															(8) Liv My Life 33/1, Bounced back to her best when winning a 9-runner handicap (22/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 14 days ago but work to do in a tougher race from 2 lb out of the handicap. Won well at Southwell last time; now 9lb higher but Warren Fentiman takes off 7lb.
7th	2 7th (2) (5/2 +50%) Moonspirit		2.5 5/2(+50%)																															(2) Moonspirit 5/2, Not disgraced when seventh of 16 in a Listed event at Deauville (9.4f) 30 days ago and again shaped as if she would be better over a mile, although has to be respected back in handicap company for top jockey and trainer combination. Largely productive; successful in three of her last four handicap attempts; player.
8th	5 8th (5) (18/1 -29%) Glorious Angel		18 18/1(-29%)																															(5) Glorious Angel 18/1, Course winner. Latest win at Ripon in April. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Catterick (5f, soft, 22/1) 90 days ago, Significantly back up in trip and interesting jockey booking for her return to action following a short-break. Most wins at sprint trips; not crying out for this return to 7f.
9th	4 9th (4) (28/1 -211%) Take A Pull		28 28/1(-211%)																															(4) Take A Pull 28/1, 1 win from 5 runs. Did well making the frame in Swedish Group 3 contest (1m, wore cheekpieces) in September. Headgear retained on return to AW when fourth of 7 on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 20/1) 27 days ago. Can be competitive in an open looking race. Largely consistent since debut win but needs some progress to win this race.

CLOUD COVER is a previous C&D winner who struck in Listed company at Deauville last month and she returns to the handicap ranks. James Tate's five-year-old could be up to defying a career-high mark before potentially going back up in class. Moonspirit was victorious in good style at Southwell on her penultimate start and a reproduction of that level of form would give her every chance. Of the remainder, Glorious Angel makes the most appeal with Tom Marquand booked.

CLOUD COVER has won and finished an unlucky third in two listed events of late and that form reads well on her return to handicap company. She gets the vote in a wide-open contest, with Red Maids taken to bounce back after a forgivable below-par effort last time and Ghaihban expected to appreciate the drop in trip to 7f.

Back down in distance on only her second handicap attempt, GHAIHABAN could well reverse Southwell placings with Moonspirit.

1	8 1st (8) (6/4 +45%) Wardens Whisper		1.5 6/4(+45%)																															(8) Wardens Whisper 6/4, Good ½-length second of 13 to Liberated Light in handicap hurdle (7/2) at Limerick (16f, soft) 21 days ago. Has good chance on form. Just behind Liberated Light at Limerick last time; 4lb better off today and can go well.
2	7 2nd (7) (17/2 -55%) Crescent Moon		8.5 17/2(-55%)																															(7) Crescent Moon 17/2, Promising start when runner-up in a Naas bumper in April. Minor promise in trio of quick-fire maiden hurdles this winter and likely he's brought along with handicaps in mind. One to note for in-form stable. Soundly beaten in three maiden hurdles but is surely capable of better; check the market.
3	2 3rd (2) (15/2 +6%) Dumb Love		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(2) Dumb Love 15/2, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Winner in hurdle at Sedgefield in September. Creditable eighth of 19 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Leopardstown (16f, good) 22 days ago. Not dismissed out of hand. Not a bad Leopardstown handicap effort last time but needs a more.
4	5 4th (5) (7/2 +0%) Liberated Light		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(5) Liberated Light 7/2, 11/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 13-runner handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 21 days ago by ½ length from Wardens Whisper, crucially jumping better than is often the case. Little more required from revised mark, however. Won a Limerick handicap over this trip last time; cheekpieces retained and has a shout.
5th	11 5th (11) (33/1 +0%) El Phenomeno		33 33/1(+0%)																															(11) El Phenomeno 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Limerick (21f, good to soft) 90 days ago, slow 4 out and dropping away quickly. Too soon to be writing him off but the market can likely prove a useful guide back from a break. Pulled-up on handicap debut in October so others make much more appeal.
6th	3 6th (3) (9/2 +44%) Miss Maxfort		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(3) Miss Maxfort 9/2, Improved on hurdles debut form when winning 14-runner maiden at Wexford (16.5f) in October. Seemingly never figured when fourteenth of 19 on handicap hurdle debut at Leopardstown (16f, good, 9/1) 22 days ago but it remains early days with her. Hood on 1st time. Wexford maiden hurdle winner but was well below that level in a Leopardstown handicap.
7th	9 7th (9) (25/1 -79%) Walk Of The Roses		25 25/1(-79%)																															(9) Walk Of The Roses 25/1, Fair winner at 2m in bumpers. 7/1, first run since leaving David Pipe when tenth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (15.9f, good to soft) 49 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Beaten a long way on handicap/stable debut for this yard in November; has to bounce back.
8th	6 8th (6) (16/1 -14%) Bold Brook		16 16/1(-14%)																															(6) Bold Brook 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 17/2, eleventh of 16 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, good to soft). First run for yard after leaving Cian Michael Collins. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Ran respectably on first two hurdle starts for former yard; has to be ready after a break.
9th	1 9th (1) (50/1 -100%) Maroto		50 50/1(-100%)																															(1) Maroto 50/1, Fair hurdler who was below form on first run since leaving W. P. Mullins when seventh of 8 in novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, soft) 19 days ago. Return to handicaps in her favour at least with a hood now reached for. Well beaten in a novice on debut for this yard after racing keenly; hood added.
10	10 |PU| (10) (66/1 -32%) Ben Purple		66 66/1(-32%)																															(10) Ben Purple 66/1, Elusive Pimpernel gelding. Pulled up in novice hurdle (150/1) at Limerick (19f, soft) 19 days ago, reminders early final circuit. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Risky proposition. Not much encouragement from three maiden hurdles and others make much more appeal.

WARDENS WHISPER may be able to turn the tables on Liberated Light. The Philip Rothwell-trained gelding went down by half a length to that rival at Limerick over Christmas and is now 4lb better off. He got caught in a pocket turning for home there and didn't help his rider by hanging right. Once he straightened up late on, he finished well and looks capable of striking off this mark. Liberated Light is entitled to be a big player again, despite his 6lb rise. Walk Of The Roses is capable of better than she showed on her Irish debut at Thurles and could get closer now.

WARDENS WHISPER finished a place behind Liberated Light when the pair met at Limerick 21 days ago, yet the latter doesn't boast consistency as his strong suit (also makes mistakes) so it could be worth chancing the former to reverse those placings here. Crescent Moon appeals as a likely improver now handicapping and could also feature.

Surely capable of better than his maiden hurdle showings, a chance is taken on CRESCENT MOON to get off the mark on h'cap debut

1	6 1st (6) (13/8 +68%) Herakles Westwood		1.625 13/8(+68%)																															(6) Herakles Westwood 13/8, Completed hurdle hat-trick last winter and further improvement switched to fences this season, building on return when winning at Newbury last month. Likely to progress again so needs considering. Won at Newbury (extended 2m7f) one month ago in his second chase; highly progressive.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/1 -100%) Deafening Silence		6 6/1(-100%)																															(3) Deafening Silence 6/1, Point winner who boasted a record of 2-3 over hurdles, including Grade 2 success at Sandown (19.8f) last winter. Shaped very well after a year off when third in Haydock Graduation chase but went backwards at Cheltenham since. Worth another chance. Creditable third on chase debut but beaten 40l at Cheltenham next time; moves up in trip.
3	4 3rd (4) (20/1 -67%) Gericault Roque		20 20/1(-67%)																															(4) Gericault Roque 20/1, Took very well to chasing in 2021/22, placed all 5 starts, including excellent second of 24 to Corach Rambler in Ultima at Cheltenham on final start. All the better for return when third in Coral Cup at Newbury over 2 years ago but not seen since. Plenty of form says he can win this but the 783 days off has to be a worry.
4	5 4th (5) (9/2 +31%) Kyntara		4.5 9/2(+31%)																															(5) Kyntara 9/2, Made up into a useful hurdler last term, scoring at Lingfield and Aintree. Runner-up at Hereford on chasing debut for Kim Bailey in 2022 and looked rusty when a well-held fourth in 23f handicap chase at Newbury on his return. Remains capable of a lot better in this sphere. Can build on his remote fourth to Herakles Westwood but others are higher up the list.
7	7 |F| (7) (11/4 +31%) Myretown		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(7) Myretown 11/4, £135,000 buy after winning an Irish point in April 2022 and hurdles winner last season. Built for chasing and stepped up on chase bow/return when comfortable winner of 3-runner handicap at Wetherby 3 weeks ago. Will stay this far and more to come. Only two finished last time, but an appealing prospect for 3m and brings clear potential.
2	2 |PU| (2) (11/1 -100%) Bhaloo		11 11/1(-100%)																															(2) Bhaloo 11/1, Dual novice hurdle winner last season and made a winning start over fences in 4-runner handicap chase at Ascot (18.8f, good) on return. Tame display over hurdles at Cheltenham since but remains with potential in this sphere. Ran poorly over hurdles latest but promising to win on Ascot chase debut the time before.

HERAKLES WESTWOOD beat Kyntara (fourth) by a wide margin when putting in a bold round of jumping to score in this grade at Newbury last month. Warren Greatrex's eight-year-old might have been let off lightly with only a 7lb rise for that triumph and may have more to offer on only his third chase start. Myretown justified favouritism in easy style at Wetherby on Boxing Day and it would be no surprise to see him get involved. Johnnywho looks best of the rest.

There was plenty to like about MYRETOWN's win at Wetherby on Boxing Day so he gets the vote up 2 lb in what looks an open affair. Herakles Westwood has continued on the upgrade switched to fences this season and is next best ahead of Johnnywho, who will be suited by this stiffer test.

Cases can be made for all of them but HERAKLES WESTWOOD (nap) with his almost relentless improvement looks the safest option.

1	10 1st (10) (17/2 +66%) The Flier Begley		8.5 17/2(+66%)																															(10) The Flier Begley 17/2, A fairly useful chase winner for Stuart Crawford in Ireland and returned to his best for current yard when scoring at Warwick and Carlisle in October. Excuses next 2 starts before bouncing back when second at Haydock 18 days ago. This tougher. Has mixed record for current stable but gave good account when second on latest outing.
2	8 2nd (8) (3/1 +33%) Nocte Volatus		3 3/1(+33%)																															(8) Nocte Volatus 3/1, Took advantage of a drop in weights to score for the first time in over 2 years at Uttoxeter in May and picked up where he left off when following up at Chepstow on return. Beaten only by a well-handicapped one at Ascot since and of strong interest dipping into veterans company for the first time. Won first two races this season and bumped into bang-in-form rival when second last time.
3	7 3rd (7) (15/2 +17%) The Edgar Wallace		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(7) The Edgar Wallace 15/2, Winner of handicaps at Wetherby and Leicester on first 2 runs of last season. Ended that campaign with a heavy defeat in the Topham at Aintree's Grand National meeting and below par both starts this term, markedly so at Newbury last time. Failed to build upon satisfactory seasonal debut when well held last month.
4	5 4th (5) (12/1 -50%) Railway Hurricane		12 12/1(-50%)																															(5) Railway Hurricane 12/1, Strong-travelling sort who tends to find little, as shown when seventh of 12 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (17f, good to soft, 25/1) 22 days ago. Others more likely. Has modest strike-rate over fences but is largely consistent; ought to be on the premises.
5th	6 5th (6) (17/2 +58%) Anglers Crag		8.5 17/2(+58%)																															(6) Anglers Crag 17/2, Big improver for this stable after wind surgery, making it 4-4 when overcoming mistakes to edge ahead close home in Eider at Newcastle. However, was pulled up in the Scottish National on final run of last season and reappearance effort was pretty low-key. Likely to find this trip too sharp. Did very well for Brian Ellison last season but arrives here with something to prove.
6th	1 6th (1) (12/1 +14%) Jetoile		12 12/1(+14%)																															(1) Jetoile 12/1, Won a trio of handicap chases in 2023, notably the Old Roan at Aintree. Matched that form when fourth at Punchestown in May but hard to draw many positives from both comeback outings this autumn. Down in class now and headgear applied back from a break. Looked out of sorts on both autumn outings; needs to be perked up by new cheekpieces.
7th	2 7th (2) (22/1 +0%) Paint The Dream		22 22/1(+0%)																															(2) Paint The Dream 22/1, Three of his four wins over fences for Fergal O'Brien were gained at Newbury, including a Grade 3 handicap back in March 2022. Shaped as if retaining plenty of ability after almost 2 years off at Cheltenham but failed to come on for that at Chepstow 3 weeks ago. Returned from long layoff with two underwhelming runs last month; others preferred.
3	3 |PU| (3) (10/3 -11%) Grandads Cottage		3.333333 10/3(-11%)																															(3) Grandads Cottage 10/3, Likeable sort though was seen to good effect when making a winning return at Carlisle last month and looks vulnerable up 6 lb in better race. Drew clear on run-in at Carlisle last month and now 4-9 over fences; respected.
4	4 |PU| (4) (13/2 -30%) Numitor		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(4) Numitor 13/2, Enhanced healthy strike rate over fences with a tidy success on return at Wincanton and as good as ever when defying a 3 lb rise at Cheltenham last month. That was his third straight win in a veterans event so he must be respected. Back from break with two wins this autumn and evidently in very good nick.
9	9 |PU| (9) (14/1 -75%) Onemorefortheroad		14 14/1(-75%)																															(9) Onemorefortheroad 14/1, Returned to something like his best form when creditable second at Doncaster. Trip too far there next time but may find this too competitive. Front-runner; stretched by 3m last time but a contender if judged on earlier 2m3f run.

Numitor has already won a couple of these veterans' series events and is dangerous to rule out on a hat-trick, with a 4lb rise for his latest success at Cheltenham noted as a fair assessment. However, previous course winner GRANDADS COTTAGE bounced back to form with a 10-length triumph at Carlisle last month and looks capable of backing that up off 6lb higher. Nocte Volatus and Onemorefortheroad are the pick of the remainder.

The thriving NOCTE VOLATUS is fancied to resume winning ways tackling a veterans event for the first time. Numitor has an excellent record in these events so has to be feared, while Jetoile makes each-way appeal at bigger odds down in class.

This looks good for NOCTE VOLATUS (nap), who got his career back on track with two wins last year and ran well in defeat last time.

1	7 1st (7) (9/1 -80%) So Darn Hot		9 9/1(-80%)																															(7) So Darn Hot 9/1, Promising sort. Winner at Doncaster in November. 8/13, creditable neck second of 6 to Yes I'm Mali in nursery at this course (5f) 55 days ago. Enters calculations. Consistent in the autumn; fighting chance with Warren Fentiman taking off 7lb.
2	5 2nd (5) (12/1 -20%) Yes I'm Mali		12 12/1(-20%)																															(5) Yes I'm Mali 12/1, Course winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year, the latest here in November. 13/2, respectable second of 7 in nursery at Southwell (6.1f) 19 days ago, no match for winner. Place possibilities. Has form figures of 132 since switched to AW, the win at this venue; solid.
3	4 3rd (4) (4/1 +11%) Cyclonite		4 4/1(+11%)																															(4) Cyclonite 4/1, C&D winner. Career best when winning 9-runner nursery (9/4) at Kempton (6f) 44 days ago. 6 lb rise tolerable and he has to enter calculations. Gelded prior to Kempton win, taking AW record to 3211; open to further progress; player.
4	1 4th (1) (6/1 +57%) Dubai Bling		6 6/1(+57%)																															(1) Dubai Bling 6/1, Thrice-raced winner. 2½ lengths fifth of 9 to Yah Mo Be There in listed race at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 11/2), hampered. Off 6 months and needs to raise his game now going down the handicap route on this AW debut. Ran well in Listed grade on last appearance; won on debut, so looks one to catch fresh.
5th	8 5th (8) (9/2 -20%) Motawahij		4.5 9/2(-20%)																															(8) Motawahij 9/2, Promising individual. 6/4, second of 5 in maiden at Ayr (5.5f, good to firm) when last seen 172 days ago. Open to progress now pitched into a handicap. Form of final 2yo effort has been well advertised by the winner since; interesting.
6th	6 6th (6) (10/3 +0%) Brosay		3.333333 10/3(+0%)																															(6) Brosay 10/3, Latest win at Southwell in December. 13/2, very good second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 8 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Expected to be bang there off the same mark. Has taken his form to a new level since joining this yard and wearing cheekpieces.
7th	9 7th (9) (20/1 -25%) Winchurch		20 20/1(-25%)																															(9) Winchurch 20/1, Latest win at Musselburgh in August. Good ½-length second of 6 to Brosay in nursery (4/1) at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago. Back up in trip and should be in the mix once again. Campaigned mostly at 5f; far from certain to get home back over 6f on stiff track.
8th	3 8th (3) (14/1 +44%) Line Of Force		14 14/1(+44%)																															(3) Line Of Force 14/1, Three wins from 6 runs last year. Latest win at Southwell in December. 13/2, fourth of 5 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 13 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good. Return to 6f will suit but his form is consistent rather than progressive.
9th	2 9th (2) (8/1 +50%) Marchogion		8 8/1(+50%)																															(2) Marchogion 8/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 9 in novice (8/11) at Lingfield (7f, AW). Off 125 days ahead of this handicap debut and while he should pick up a race before long, others make more appeal on this occasion. Novice form stacks up very well, suggesting he's on a workable opening mark; respected.

So Darn Hot failed to justify short odds when beaten a neck into second behind Yes I'm Mali over 5f here in November, but the 1lb pull, along with the extra furlong, may help him to overturn that form. Even so, CYCLONITE gets the nod. James Ferguson's three-year-old made his last juvenile start a winning one at Kempton and is only 6lb higher. With a previous course-and-distance victory aiding his cause, he has lots in his favour to go in again. Marchogion warrants a market check on his handicap bow.

BROSAY has resumed from a break for new connections in top form, scoring over the minimum at Southwell at the end of December prior to going close back up to 6f at Lingfield last week. He should go very close indeed turned out again before his new mark (due to go up 2 lb) kicks in. So Darn Hot shaped as though returning to this trip would be in his favour when touched off by the re-opposing Yes I'm Mali here last time and he is feared most ahead of another promising type in Motawahij.

The vote goes to MARCHOGION, ahead of fellow handicap debutant Motawahij. Most of the others have good claims.

Visored for 1st time, good second of 17 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (24f, soft, 13/2) 20 days ago, keeping on well from last. Entitled to be thereabouts.

Third of 18 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft, 13/8) 22 days ago, pulling clear of the remainder. Significantly up in trip and he's the one to beat.

Blinkered for 1st time and he holds each-way claims. Pulled-up on hurdling debut; a bit better last time with cheekpieces; blinkers now.
4	9 4th (9) (50/1 -25%) Work Place		50 50/1(-25%)																															(9) Work Place 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Twelfth of 13 in bumper (66/1) at Limerick (18f, soft) on bumper debut 20 days ago. Switches from bumpers to hurdles. Significantly up in trip. Open to improvement, particularly in handicaps. Soundly beaten in three points plus two maiden hurdles and a bumper; wait for handicaps.

Up in trip. Beaten a long way in a Limerick maiden hurdle on rules debut; best watched for now.
6th	2 6th (2) (100/1 -100%) Famous Sonnet		100 100/1(-100%)																															(2) Famous Sonnet 100/1, Fame And Glory gelding who hasn't offered much in a bumper/3 hurdle runs to date. Well beaten in two completed maiden hurdles and handicaps will suit better.

10	10 |B| (10) (33/1 -65%) Kadys Dirha		33 33/1(-65%)																															(10) Kadys Dirha 33/1, Modest chaser. Remains a maiden after 15 hurdle runs. 16/1, fell in handicap chase at Listowel (23.8f, soft) 111 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Twice runner-up over fences in the summer; hurdles form isn't good enough to win this.

Not a strong maiden hurdle and AUTOPORTRAIT should prove hard to beat after a couple of solid placed efforts. The French import bumped into a nice looking sort in Goraibhmaithagat on his Irish debut in Navan and it also looked a hot contest in which he was third to Laafi at Limerick. He takes a big jump up in trip but it looks like a drop in class. The Story So Far sets the standard off his mark of 113. He ran well when chasing home Doitforjane in handicap company at Limerick. Masterboy Davis has been disappointing but might get closer in this company.

AUTOPORTRAIT holds standout claims on his efforts to date for Mouse Morris and this looks an excellent opportunity for him to open his account. The Story So Far can provide the lead threat, ahead of Masterboy Davis.

Though AUTOPORTRAIT is taking a marked step-up in trip, there is stamina in his French pedigree and he appeals as the likely winner.

1	2 1st (2) (15/2 -50%) Gidleigh Park		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(2) Gidleigh Park 15/2, Useful winner of 3 of his 4 starts over hurdles last season, including a Cheltenham Grade 2. Has the scope for chasing, if not necessarily the robustness, bombing out on return at Kempton 8 weeks ago (reportedly had irregular heartbeat). Bit to prove dropped to 2m. Pulled up on chase debut (irregular heartbeat); Grade 2 hurdle winner is not written off.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/6 +100%) Caldwell Potter		0.666667 4/6(+100%)																															(1) Caldwell Potter 4/6, Quickly reached a smart level over hurdles for Gordon Elliott, winning Grade 1 at Leopardstown, and perfect start over fences for new connections (€740,000 buy) in 2m Carlisle novice chase. Advanced his form despite his defeat at Cheltenham 5 weeks ago and remains a smart prospect back over 2m. His bubble was burst somewhat at Cheltenham but he nevertheless holds leading claims today.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/1 +29%) Personal Ambition		5 5/1(+29%)																															(3) Personal Ambition 5/1, Useful novice hurdler last season, winning 3 times at up to 19f. Good start over fences this term and ought to have won a Grade 2 at Ascot last month (2 lengths up and in control after making most when lost all momentum at the last). Clearly up to winning races in this sphere. May well have won Grade 2 novice at Ascot but for final-fence blunder; could have big say.
4	4 4th (4) (4/1 -20%) You Wear It Well		4 4/1(-20%)																															(4) You Wear It Well 4/1, Won the Grade 2 Mares' Novice Hurdle at the 2023 Cheltenham Festival and has made a promising start over fences this time around, shaping best at Bangor and poorly placed at Warwick. Drops to 2m with more to offer in this sphere. Two Grade 2 wins over hurdles; open to improvement on third chase start, but it's needed.

CALDWELL POTTER arguably had his stamina tested too far when fading into third over 2m5f at Cheltenham last time and this drop in distance looks to be a good move. Paul Nicholls' seven-year-old sets the standard with a rating of 148 and if he can run to near that level, then he will prove very hard to beat. Gidleigh Park was reported to have an irregular heartbeat after running too bad to be true at Kempton on his seasonal return in November and is well worth another chance. You Wear It Well can beat Personal Ambition home for third.

A fascinating Grade 2 and a good chance for CALDWELL POTTER to get back on track. He advanced his form despite meeting with defeat at Cheltenham, when again jumping well in the main, and remains a top prospect for 2m chases. You Wear It Well has a bigger performance in her over fences and could be the danger.

The drop back in trip looks the right move for CALDWELL POTTER for the time being and he can regain the winning thread.

Third in an 8-runner handicap at Wetherby (2m, heavy) last month. finished strongly. Confirmed the promise of that run when third of 7 in handicap hurdle at this course (18.6f, good to soft, 12/1) 22 days ago but stamina to prove at this trip (unplaced on 3 runs over 23f or more). Promising third over 2m2f here last time but stamina is a doubt at this distance.
2	2 2nd (2) (5/2 +55%) Stay If U Want To		2.5 5/2(+55%)																															(2) Stay If U Want To 5/2, Won a bumper here and made a sound start over hurdles, off the mark in a Hereford maiden in May. Seems to be in the grip of the handicapper, latest sixth of 13 in a handicap hurdle at Ascot (21.6f, good to soft) 28 days ago but step up in trip may well bring out some more improvement. Respectable in mid-division the last twice; the drop in grade and longer trip could help.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 -150%) Ithaka		10 10/1(-150%)																															(6) Ithaka 10/1, Scored over C&D in December and resumed winning ways latest when winning a 14-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, heavy) 17 days ago, looking an out-and-out stayer. 8 lb hike for that and up in grade so this will be tougher, although arrives in good heart. Two wins (including C&D) from last three starts and had nearly 5l to spare last time.
4	1 4th (1) (20/1 -122%) Midnightreflection		20 20/1(-122%)																															(1) Midnightreflection 20/1, Probably isn't the force of old but fared better when fourth of 10 in a handicap hurdle (18/1) at Warwick (26f, soft) 17 days ago, ridden entering home straight and one pace late on. Interesting to see if blinkers have a positive impact now dropping in grade into a 0-100 handicap. 10yo who isn't the force of old but showed some spark towards end of 2024; yard in form.
5th	3 5th (3) (15/2 +38%) Shengai Enki		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(3) Shengai Enki 15/2, Versatile performer landed a 23.3f Uttoxeter handicap in May followed by a 2m Worcester novice a month later. Has found things tougher since but he's now only 2 lb above his last winning mark returning from a 102-day break today, although he is 0 from 4 returning from breaks of over 60 days or more. 2m7f/2m winner last May/June but he wasn't at his best in the autumn; returns from break.
6th	7 6th (7) (20/1 -100%) Monsieur Le Fuzz		20 20/1(-100%)																															(7) Monsieur Le Fuzz 20/1, Runner-up in Irish points. Best effort in novice hurdles when fourth of 6 at Market Rasen (20.5f) last month (carried head slightly awkwardly). Failed to back that up when ninth of 12 in novice hurdle at Carlisle (17f, soft) 33 days ago and now significantly up in trip for handicap bow. Lightly raced 3m point runner-up who is open to improvement now up in trip on h'cap debut.
7th	8 7th (8) (2/1 +33%) Another Lord		2 2/1(+33%)																															(8) Another Lord 2/1, Better on last two starts without hood. Opened his account at Hereford (19.7f) in March, following a breathing operation. Ran an eye-catching race after 10 months off when second of 13 in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (22.2f, heavy) 28 days ago, shaping as if the extra furlong will suit. Player. Stayed on well for close second over 2m6f at Uttoxeter and he's on the shortlist.
8th	9 8th (9) (40/1 -21%) R Bernard		40 40/1(-21%)																															(9) R Bernard 40/1, Scored at Stratford in May but struggled since, thirteenth of 15 in a handicap hurdle at Taunton (23.9f, good) 36 days ago. Tongue-tie on but others preferred. Won two in a row at Stratford last spring but not in the same form subsequently.
9th	4 9th (4) (7/1 -56%) Caher Roes Den		7 7/1(-56%)																															(4) Caher Roes Den 7/1, Irish point winner who took his form up a notch after 8 months off when third of 11 on handicap debut at Wincanton (24.7f, good) in October, pulling clear of rest and shaping as though he'll have no trouble landing a race from this sort of mark. Cheekpieces on and should be in the mix again. Encouraging third on his handicap and seasonal debut and he's open to improvement.

ITHAKA won over this C&D at the start of December and, having also scored with a determined effort at Uttoxeter most recently, there are good reasons to expect another bold showing. Another Lord returned from a break with a close-up second over 2m6f at Uttoxeter last month and should also have more to offer off 4lb higher. Belvedere Blast and the unexposed Caher Roes Den complete the shortlist.

ANOTHER LORD's latest effort was an eye-catching one, a fast-finishing third following a 10-month absence, and he's entitled to build on that run and can land the spoils here. The lightly-raced Caher Roes Den shaped well on handicap debut and rates a serious danger, while course-winner Stay If U Want To is not ruled out on his first try at this trip.

The step up in trip could be ideal for STAY IF U WANT TO and he is taken to post his first handicap win on this drop back in grade.

Didn't come close to matching that form in 3 outings after though, and now makes all/weather/handicap debut returning from 7 months off the track (had wind op). Interesting. Makes AW/handicap debut looking well treated on best form, which is very useful.

Again ran well when third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 10/3) just under 8 weeks ago. Should remain competitive. Likely to cope with this drop back in trip; may remain competitive.

Ran respectably back up in trip when 4¼ lengths fourth of 10 to The Caltonian in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 16 days ago and more required if he's to double his career tally. Has plenty of useful form but he's now 0-8 since debut success.
4	12 4th (12) (6/1 -20%) Heathcliff		6 6/1(-20%)																															(12) Heathcliff 6/1, Promising individual. C&D winner. Four wins from 7 runs last year. 9/4, continued his run-to-run progression after 9 weeks off when winning 9-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) in November, pushed out. Freshened up since and merits consideration from a 6 lb higher mark. Has form figures of 131121 in handicaps; progressing very well; commands respect.
5th	7 5th (7) (12/1 -20%) Coachello		12 12/1(-20%)																															(7) Coachello 12/1, C&D winner. 3/1, rejuvenated by a return to synthetics after 11 weeks off when winning 10-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 18 days ago, edging ahead line to capitalise on a career-low mark. Should remain competitive from just 3 lb higher. Prevailed narrowly at Wolverhampton last time, taking AW record to 5-11.
6th	9 6th (9) (13/2 +19%) We Never Stop		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(9) We Never Stop 13/2, Latest win at Southwell in November. 15/8, again found only one too good when second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 6 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and inexperienced amateur takes over in the plate. Has form figures of 1222 since switched to AW; holds a fighting chance.
7th	4 7th (4) (33/1 -18%) Saint Lawrence		33 33/1(-18%)																															(4) Saint Lawrence 33/1, Ran better than last time without returning to form when 5¾ lengths seventh of 10 to The Caltonian in handicap (40/1) at this C&D 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others look stronger for win purposes. Has failed to dazzle in two C&D events since switched to AW.
8th	10 8th (10) (7/2 +42%) Cajetan		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(10) Cajetan 7/2, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (10/3) at this C&D 27 days ago, leading over 1f out then storming clear. Handicapper has reacted with a 10 lb rise, but he may well have not finished improving on the all-weather. Registered a useful 5l win over C&D last time, taking AW record to 3-4; big player.
9th	8 9th (8) (10/1 -11%) The Caltonian		10 10/1(-11%)																															(8) The Caltonian 10/1, 9/1, proved better than ever to record a sixth career success and his fifth at this track in 10-runner handicap at this C&D 16 days ago by length from We Never Stop. Was in good form around this time last year too and should go well again. New Year's Day success (career-best form) took his Newcastle record to 5-12.
10th	11 10th (11) (10/1 -11%) King's Lynn		10 10/1(-11%)																															(11) King's Lynn 10/1, Twenty-four runs since last win in 2022. Went close to ending a lengthy losing run from a gradually relenting mark when equal-third of 12 to We Never Stop in handicap (5/1) at Southwell (6.1f) just under 11 weeks ago. Considered having yet to finish outside of the first 3 on all-weather. Well capable of being involved but he's still on a very long losing spell.
11th	14 11th (14) (80/1 -142%) Juan Les Pins		80 80/1(-142%)																															(14) Juan Les Pins 80/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 25/1, again ran below form when 7 lengths eighth of 10 to The Caltonian in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago. Mark eases another 3 lb. Finished behind some of these opponents in last few outings; opposed.
12th	1 12th (1) (25/1 -108%) Misty Grey		25 25/1(-108%)																															(1) Misty Grey 25/1, C&D winner in May and proved at least as good as ever when following up in 13-runner handicap (7/1) at Epsom (6f, good to soft) when last seen 7 months ago. Returns 4 lb higher and the likelihood is he will need this outing. Record of 422311 since joining this yard; absent since Epsom win on Derby day.
13th	5 13th (5) (150/1 -355%) Gweedore		150 150/1(-355%)																															(5) Gweedore 150/1, Very useful front-runner who won 3 times during 2023 and signed off with highly-respectable pair of in-the-frame efforts. Well-beaten last of 9 on return from 6 months off at Haydock (7f, heavy) back in April and presumably has had his issues to not have been seen since. Ran badly in sole outing last year; needs to show he retains ability.
14th	2 14th (2) (40/1 -122%) Noble Truth		40 40/1(-122%)																															(2) Noble Truth 40/1, Back to winning ways in Newmarket listed race in April 2022 and, having been gelded, won the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot in June of that year. Ran poorly 7 months on when tailed-off last at Meydan in January 2023 not seen since. Has switched yards (130,000 gns) ahead of this handicap bow. Smart for Charlie Appleby; market instructive on return form two-year layoff.

THE CALTONIAN looked better than ever when scything his way through the field to score over C&D 16 days ago. The second that day subsequently went close at Chelmsford and a 5lb rise may not be enough to prevent Linda Perratt's charge from following up. Coachello capitalised on a tumbling mark at Wolverhampton last month and he's feared most, ahead of the hat-trick seeking Misty Grey.

An ultra-competitive sprint with any number to consider but the vote goes to MARSHMAN, who boasts an excellent record when fresh and has had a breathing operation ahead of his handicap/all-weather debut. Heathcliff has won 4 of his last 6 outings and having been freshened up since his most recent success, he's put forward as the main threat. King's Lynn and recent wide-margin C&D winner Cajetan are another couple worth mentioning, too.

On the back of an emphatic and very solid C&D win, CAJETAN (nap) holds a particularly strong chance. Heathcliff is feared most.

Back up in trip. Leading claims at these weights. Ran a cracker behind a quality mare at Punchestown last time; should go well with a repeat.
2	9 2nd (9) (7/2 +36%) Slim Marvel		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(9) Slim Marvel 7/2, Winner in hurdle at Kilbeggan in July. 17/2, solid fifth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, soft) 16 days ago. Very much one to consider. Similar runs in defeat at Fairyhouse the last twice; needs more from 3lb out of handicap.

Creditable seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle (15/2) at Limerick (20f, soft) 22 days ago. In the picture. Maiden hurdle winner can improve from Limerick return over Christmas and be a player.

Switches from chase to hurdles and needs considering. Fourth over fences last time; should have improved from that and has a squeak.
5th	8 5th (8) (12/1 +25%) Lucky Viv		12 12/1(+25%)																															(8) Lucky Viv 12/1, Winner in hurdle at Ballinrobe in August. Respectable seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at Limerick (21f, soft) 20 days ago. Shortlisted. Won a Ballinrobe maiden in August but hasn't been at that level in handicaps since.

7th	7 7th (7) (25/1 +38%) Cooltubrid Eva		25 25/1(+38%)																															(7) Cooltubrid Eva 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Well held when unseated rider 2 out in handicap hurdle at Limerick (20f, soft, 33/1) 21 days ago. Risky proposition at present. Runner-up in a Limerick maiden hurdle in 2023 but nowhere near that level since.
8th	4 8th (4) (8/1 -129%) Ad Caelum		8 8/1(-129%)																															(4) Ad Caelum 8/1, Career best when winning 8-runner novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, soft, 7/2) 19 days ago. Not taken lightly in her current mood. Won a novice event at Limerick last time but an 8lb rise makes this tougher.
9th	1 9th (1) (28/1 +30%) Finest Evermore		28 28/1(+30%)																															(1) Finest Evermore 28/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (23.4f, good, 66/1) 20 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Struggled in two of her three starts for this yard; needs to improve massively on that.

This looks like a nice opportunity for CAST A SPELL. She ran well in a decent conditions race last time when third to Aurora Vega at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day. The Mastercraftsman mare also run a solid race when fourth in handicap company off this mark at Navan previously and Cian Quirke is back on board to take off a useful 5lb. Ad Caelum comes here in fine form and looks an obvious danger. She has won two of her last three but has to defy an 8lb hike for her victory at Limerick. Deons Diamond has been running better over fences but could be place material here.

CAST A SPELL rates the pick of these weights on the back of her good Fairyhouse third so gets the vote. In-form Slim Marvel is next on the list ahead of Ad Caelum and Gers Gigi in this competitive handicap.

With improvement likely from her return over fences at Fairyhouse last time, DEONS DIAMOND could get the job done today.

1	5 1st (5) (15/8 +44%) Panic Attack		1.875 15/8(+44%)																															(5) Panic Attack 15/8, Three-time hurdles winner for David Pipe who shaped as if retaining all her ability back from 22 months off when third of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow last month. Ran to a similar level at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) subsequently and now reverts to the larger obstacles back up in trip. Well handicapped judged on her 2m4f chase form two winters back; plenty of ability remains.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/1 +18%) Mayhem Mya		9 9/1(+18%)																															(7) Mayhem Mya 9/1, Opened chase account at Exeter in December 2023 and having faced a stiff task back hurdling in a listed race at Auteuil in November, capitalised on her lower hurdles mark back on home soil back at Exeter (18.5f, soft) just over 4 weeks ago. Reverts to fences but not an obvious one to follow up. Stamina to prove still; won over hurdles last time and well treated on peak chase efforts.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/2 -83%) Law Ella		5.5 11/2(-83%)																															(1) Law Ella 11/2, Has run well when making the frame all 3 starts this season, finishing with running left when third at Limerick (19.4f, soft) just under 3 weeks ago, not helped by some indifferent jumping but caught behind a weakening rival on home turn. Irish raider who warrants considerable respect. Flopped at Exeter last term but very solid record over fences in Ireland, at up to 2m6f.
4	2 4th (2) (22/1 +12%) Sacre Coeur		22 22/1(+12%)																															(2) Sacre Coeur 22/1, Three-time handicap chase winner last season and back to best when making all at Plumpton (25.7f, good to soft) in November. Went down all guns blazing at Kempton a week later but possibly found it one race too many after a busy spell at Hereford since. Bounce back required. Trailblazing front-runner who was in good form prior to pulling up at 25-1 last time.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 +23%) Ilovethenightlife		5 5/1(+23%)																															(3) Ilovethenightlife 5/1, A fairly useful winning hurdler who built on an encouraging chasing debut when landing a Kempton handicap in November. Found out in better company at Warwick (20f, soft) since but fancied to get back on track returned to a handicap. Running well but she may now prove ideally suited by a step back up from this trip.
4	4 |U| (4) (10/1 -25%) Game On For Glory		10 10/1(-25%)																															(4) Game On For Glory 10/1, Opened chase account at Ludlow last season and left reappearance behind in reapplied headgear when winning 13-runner handicap at Cheltenham (20.6f, good to soft) just under 5 weeks ago, knuckling down well to see off the pace making runner-up. Another bold bid anticipated from 5 lb higher. Clearcut win in a warm race at Cheltenham last time; less potent in second-time headgear?.
6	6 |PU| (6) (7/2 -17%) Party Vibes		3.5 7/2(-17%)																															(6) Party Vibes 7/2, Won 2 mares' novices last season and shaped well in face of a stiff task on return/chase debut (runner-up in an Irish point) at Bangor in November. Confirmed that promise when landing the odds at Exeter (17.5f, soft) last month and open to further progress now handicapping. She did well as a novice hurdler last term and has now taken well to fences; bred to stay.

PARTY VIBES made a pleasing start to life over fences when finishing third behind two smart mares in a warm race at Bangor on her penultimate start, before going two places better at Exeter last month. Stepping up in distance off what looks a workable mark, she gets the vote to land the spoils. Gavin Cromwell's runners should always be respected on these shores and Law Ella looks the main danger following a solid third over an extended 2m3f at Limerick. Panic Attack is also considered.

A case can be made for most of these, but the suggestion is PARTY VIBES, who dug deep to land the odds Exeter last month and Henry Daly's 7-y-o is open to further progress now handicapping in this sphere. Panic Attack has made a positive start for her new yard and, back up in trip/reverted to fences, she can give the selection most to think about, with Irish-raider Law Ella taken to edge out Ilovethenightlife for third.

The vote goes to PANIC ATTACK who can take a healthy step on her comeback trail now that she reverts to fences and 2m4f.

1	6 1st (6) (7/2 +0%) Copperhead		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(6) Copperhead 7/2, Ended a long losing run at Plumpton in May and added handicaps at Chepstow and Aintree in October. Excellent second the last twice at Sandown and Cheltenham and is a leading player here back up in trip. Latest start was his best form since 2021 and this resurgent 11yo needs plenty of respect.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/2 -10%) Sam Brown		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(1) Sam Brown 11/2, Smart veteran chaser who won 3m handicaps at Warwick and Ascot last season. Returned with a fine third in the Charlie Hall at Wetherby but wasn't in the same form in a strong handicap at Newbury last time. Blinkers go back on. Won this last year; seriously involved if reverting to blinkers from a visor proves okay.
3	8 3rd (8) (12/1 -20%) Smarty Wild		12 12/1(-20%)																															(8) Smarty Wild 12/1, Useful handicap chaser, placed all 3 starts in 2022/23, but pulled up on the back of a long lay-off at Haydock last month. Might come on for it. Sole chase win was four years ago; second run since a long break and not a forlorn hope.
4	2 4th (2) (7/2 +13%) Eldorado Allen		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(2) Eldorado Allen 7/2, Positive start to this season following another wind op when runner-up at Warwick and backed it up with a good third at Cheltenham. Step back up in trip is well in his favour and he boasts solid claims. Respectable minor honours both outings since latest wind op; lowest chase mark since 2021.
5th	7 5th (7) (9/2 +44%) Fortescue		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(7) Fortescue 9/2, Lightly raced in recent times and ran well when runner-up to Copperhead on reappearance. Didn't fire at Ascot subsequently but this is easier back against fellow veterans. Stuck on a losing run but his best efforts last term give him a huge form chance.
4	4 |F| (4) (14/1 -17%) Cloudy Glen		14 14/1(-17%)																															(4) Cloudy Glen 14/1, Hard to predict but talented on his day, as he proved when making a winning return in veterans event at Haydock in December. Came in last of 5 at Cheltenham since though and others appeal more. Maintaining his high level after reappearance (won well at Haydock this time) is the worry.
5	5 |PU| (5) (5/1 +38%) Empire Steel		5 5/1(+38%)																															(5) Empire Steel 5/1, Gives his running more often than not, which counts for plenty in this sort of event, so merits respect on the back of another creditable third at Haydock last time. Not so bright since Kelso win last February but his only recent run was no disgrace.
3	3 |PU| (3) (18/1 -80%) Remastered		18 18/1(-80%)																															(3) Remastered 18/1, Bounced back to form to take advantage of his reduced mark on his Wincanton reappearance in October. Has been let down by jumping on both subsequent outings and others make more appeal. Wincanton win in October; the fences have got in the way on both starts since; blinkers on.

COPPERHEAD has found a new lease of life in the veterans' division this season and he gets the nod to return to winning ways. Joe Tizzard's classy operator went down narrowly over an inadequate trip at Cheltenham last month and, stepping back up in distance off 2lb higher, he could prove tough to stop. Sam Brown has been plying his trade in some hot races of late and he commands respect in this company, while Remastered and Fortescue are also noted as each-way players.

Joe Tizzard has revitalised COPPERHEAD and Eldorado Allen recently and this pair of classy types could be the ones to fight this out, with the former marginally preferred. Empire Steel is reliable at this level, so he's considered a player, too.

Copperhead has found his old steel in a major change of fortunes but ELDORADO ALLEN shaped well behind him last time.

1	6 1st (6) (9/4 +36%) Old Harrovian		2.25 9/4(+36%)																															(6) Old Harrovian 9/4, Made a promising start to 2025 when a clear second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 13 days ago, conceding first run to the winner. Big shout. Threatening to regain the winning thread; close second at Southwell most recently.
2	8 2nd (8) (5/1 +44%) Metallo		5 5/1(+44%)																															(8) Metallo 5/1, 18/1, very good third of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 30 days ago, sticking to task. Up in trip and can make his presence felt. Ran well over 1m last time, shaping as if this new trip is worth exploring.
3	3 3rd (3) (4/1 +27%) Dark Moon Rising		4 4/1(+27%)																															(3) Dark Moon Rising 4/1, Latest win at Southwell in November. Good second of 10 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D 42 days ago. In the mix again. Two good performances since returned to AW; went close over C&D latest; major player.
4	10 4th (10) (10/1 +0%) Midnight Lion		10 10/1(+0%)																															(10) Midnight Lion 10/1, 3/1, improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at this C&D 6 days ago, always holding on. Can go well again under a 5 lb penalty. Success last Saturday took his record for new yard to 3-3 and C&D score to 4-5.
5th	2 5th (2) (33/1 -106%) Fantasy Believer		33 33/1(-106%)																															(2) Fantasy Believer 33/1, Latest win at Southwell in August. 22/1, not disgraced after a slow start when fourth of 6 to Royal Champion in listed race at Lingfield (10f, AW) 17 days ago. Considered. Remains on a difficult mark and others look better treated.
6th	7 6th (7) (16/1 -33%) Dream Harder		16 16/1(-33%)																															(7) Dream Harder 16/1, C&D winner. Solid second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 13/2) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Needs considering. Not disgraced on Boxing Day but his losing run is mounting up.
7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 -27%) Mighty Nebula		14 14/1(-27%)																															(9) Mighty Nebula 14/1, 11/4, won 9-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 36 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up despite a 3 lb weights rise. Won at Chelmsford last month, taking his 1m2f form figures to 421; not ruled out.
8th	4 8th (4) (4/1 -33%) Northern Ruler		4 4/1(-33%)																															(4) Northern Ruler 4/1, Lightly-raced winner. First run since leaving William Haggas when landing 7-runner novice at this course (12.4f) 9 days ago. Has more to offer now going into handicaps. Likely player. Comfortable success in novice event here last week on debut for new stable; respected.
9th	1 9th (1) (18/1 -80%) Claymore		18 18/1(-80%)																															(1) Claymore 18/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, last of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 22 days ago. Others have achieved more. Still badly out of the winning habit and may struggle to defy top weight.

Midnight Lion is chasing a fourth consecutive victory over C&D and the five-year-old is effectively only 3lb higher than his triumph here six days ago if taking Amie Waugh's 3lb claim into consideration. However, this rise into class 2 company does demand more from the son of Nathaniel and handicap debutant NORTHERN RULER may prove to be the better handicapped of the pair. Karl Burke's colt had little difficulty in opening his account on his stable bow at this track recently and there should be more to come. Dark Moon Rising is also noted.

A competitive handicap but OLD HARROVIAN signalled he is ready to go in again when an excellent recent Southwell second and gets the vote, ahead of in-form pair Dream Harder and Northern Ruler.

Unexposed NORTHERN RULER is taken to defy a 5lb penalty and follow up his reappearance win. Dark Moon Rising is second pick.

1	6 1st (6) (7/2 +36%) Jay Pee M		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(6) Jay Pee M 7/2, Fair hurdler who wasn't disgraced when sixth of 16 in Tipperary handicap hurdle on his final run for Daniel William O'Sullivan in May. No forlorn hope on his chase/yard debut after 8 months off. Fell at the last in a maiden point with the race at his mercy, interesting in this company.
2	5 2nd (5) (9/2 +40%) Glady Max		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(5) Glady Max 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 7/2, fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (21.5f, good to soft). Off 9 months. Switches from hurdles to chase. Merits consideration if fully tuned up. Two point-to-point wins last season, jumps well and could feature in this modest grade.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/4 +36%) Mighty Oak Lad		2.25 9/4(+36%)																															(8) Mighty Oak Lad 9/4, Fair winner at 24f over hurdles. Excellent third of 12 in handicap chase at Navan (20.6f, good to soft, 12/1) 33 days ago. Holds very good claims back in maiden company. Two placed efforts in handicap chases at Navan suggest he could go close in this company.
4	10 4th (10) (14/1 -133%) On Your Way		14 14/1(-133%)																															(10) On Your Way 14/1, Fair hurdler. Creditable sixth of 13 in handicap hurdle (3/1) at Limerick (16f, soft) 21 days ago. Much respected on his chase debut stepping back up in trip. Twice placed in maiden hurdles, recent handicap form raises doubts, unwise to discount.
5th	12 5th (12) (40/1 -21%) Notimelikedpresent		40 40/1(-21%)																															(12) Notimelikedpresent 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixteenth of 20 in novice hurdle (300/1) at this course (15.7f, soft) 40 days ago. Makes chase debut. Up in trip. Dam won three bumpers and two hurdle races for this yard, no sign of ability over hurdles.

Blinkers back on. Best form at Tramore but held by John The Diva on his most recent run at that venue.
7th	13 7th (13) (18/1 +10%) Cloudy Fountain		18 18/1(+10%)																															(13) Cloudy Fountain 18/1, Modest hurdler. 16/1, below form ninth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (24.7f, soft) 56 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Hood back on. Won a point, fell on only hunter chase start, moderate form last four starts.
8th	2 8th (2) (80/1 -60%) Chasing Chances		80 80/1(-60%)																															(2) Chasing Chances 80/1, 66/1, unseated rider 1st in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (24.5f, soft) 16 days ago. Makes chase debut with more required. Weak form in three races over hurdles since October, unlikely to feature.
9th	4 9th (4) (66/1 -164%) Danny The Fence		66 66/1(-164%)																															(4) Danny The Fence 66/1, Modest winner at 24f over hurdles. 28/1, tenth of 12 in handicap chase at Navan (24f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Possibly flattered by his current 93 rating, stablemate Mighy Oak Lad looks superior.
11	11 |F| (11) (12/1 -9%) The Miracle Man		12 12/1(-9%)																															(11) The Miracle Man 12/1, Fair winner at 20f over hurdles. Seventh of 13 in novice chase at Tramore (21.4f, heavy, 9/1) on his debut over fences 52 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has a bit to find with John The Diva on running at Tramore; cheekpieces on now.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable seventh of 20 in handicap hurdle (50/1) at Fairyhouse (20f, soft) 16 days ago. Makes chase debut. Considered. An 87-rated hurdler, only once in the first four, faces a daunting task on chase debut..
7	7 |U| (7) (9/2 +10%) John The Diva		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(7) John The Diva 9/2, Fair winner at 21f over hurdles. Encouraging third of 13 in novice chase at Tramore (21.4f, heavy, 22/1) on his debut over fences 52 days ago. Not taken lightly. Encouraging third at Tramore on seasonal debut, strong contender with fitness advanced.
10th	15 10th (15) (33/1 -230%) Whotookthebiscuit		33 33/1(-230%)																															(15) Whotookthebiscuit 33/1, Fair winner at 16f over hurdles. 25/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap hurdle at this course (16.2f, soft) 35 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back up in trip. Fell on chase debut, hard to fancy after a poor hurdle run at this venue last time.
11th	3 11th (3) (125/1 -150%) Da Big Fella		125 125/1(-150%)																															(3) Da Big Fella 125/1, Modest hurdler. Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Pulled up in handicap chase (16/1) at Limerick (22.6f, soft) 19 days ago, dropping away 3 out. Has occasionally run well off a low handicap mark, very difficult task on these terms.
14	14 |PU| (14) (100/1 -150%) Fire Force		100 100/1(-150%)																															(14) Fire Force 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Tramore (21.6f, heavy) 16 days ago, beaten a circuit out. Makes chase debut. Blinkered for 1st time. Placed in points, ordinary form over hurdles, pulled up in a Tramore handicap last time.

MIGHTY OAK LAD has gained good experience in handicap company and looks up to winning one of these restricted beginners chases now. The Doyen gelding kept on without troubling the front two when third to Individualiste at Navan last month and this is a nice race for him, for horses rated 100 or less over hurdles. John The Diva ran well in a similar contest at Tramore, when third on his chase debut, and looks like an obvious danger. The Charles Byrnes-trained On Your Way has shown glimpses of ability over timber and is one to note on his chasing bow.

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and MIGHTY OAK LAD looks the way to go on the back of his excellent Navan handicap third last time out. John The Diva shaped well on his first go over fences when third at Tramore and rates the main threat to Karl Thornton's 7-y-o, while chasing newcomers On Your Way and Jay Pee M also need factoring in, especially if the market speaks in their favour.

Not far off the best of these over hurdles, JOHN THE DIVA made a competent chasing and seasonal debut at Tramore and can collect now

1	2 1st (2) (85/40 +65%) Nemean Lion		2.125 85/40(+65%)																															(2) Nemean Lion 85/40, Smart performer who landed the Grade 2 Kingwell Hurdle at Wincanton in February and has returned in rude health, runner-up at Sandown before adding to his tally in clear-cut fashion at Hereford (19.7f) last month, his class firmly telling. Respected for all this will definitely demand more. Stays 2m4f; admirable sort who should be bang there once again.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 -45%) Salver		4 4/1(-45%)																															(3) Salver 4/1, Quickly made up into a smart juvenile last term, winning first 4 starts before finishing third in the Triumph Hurdle in March. Good fourth in Gerry Fielden on return and in process of running well when falling last in Relkeel at Cheltenham (20.2f)16 days ago. Still unexposed at this trip. Requires better form and better jumping but 2m4f+ might still hold the key.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/2 0%) Blueking D'oroux		2.5 5/2(0%)																															(1) Blueking D'oroux 5/2, Smart hurdler who has ran right up to his best in pair of starts this winter, leaving the impression he was stretched by the trip when sixth of 10 in Grade 1 Long Walk at Ascot (24.4f) 4 weeks ago. Lead player on these terms returned to calmer waters. In good form this season and should be a big player in this contest back at 2m4f.
4	4 4th (4) (5/2 +50%) Iberico Lord		2.5 5/2(+50%)																															(4) Iberico Lord 5/2, Made up into a smart hurdler last term, winning a couple of big handicaps, including the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury. Hasn't convinced with his jumping despite winning first of 2 starts over fences this season but he could well resume progress back in this sphere. Won two big 2m handicaps in the mud thanks to his strength at the finish; 2m4f beckons.
5th	5 5th (5) (14/1 -115%) Langer Dan		14 14/1(-115%)																															(5) Langer Dan 14/1, Became the first dual winner of the Coral Cup at the Festival in March before solid placed efforts in Graded company. Hasn't yet fired in 2 starts this winter and his very best form has often come in the spring. Passed over on this occasion. Hard to beat on best form but this stage of the season is seemingly not his time to shine.

Blueking D'oroux was far from disgraced when fading into sixth in the Long Walk Hurdle over 3m at Ascot last month and, dropping back in trip with his sights lowered, he must enter calculations. That said, it may pay to side with IBERICO LORD. He landed the Greatwood Hurdle and Betfair Hurdle last term and, after not fully convincing with his jumping over fences last time, this smart hurdler can return to winning ways sent back over timber. Salver is also one for the shortlist.

Not for the first time, BLUEKING D'OROUX just seemed to find his stamina stretched late in the day but still emerged with credit when finishing midfield in the Longwalk at Ascot 4 weeks ago. He looks to hold sound claims with his sights lowered back down in trip. Nemean Lion will find this more demanding than his assignment at Hereford but is respected, whilst it's feasible to think Iberico Lord and Salver both have more to offer.

Salver and Iberico Lord remain fascinating propositions but slight preference is for NEMEAN LION and Blueking d'Oroux.

1	6 1st (6) (16/1 +0%) Kingston Queen		16 16/1(+0%)																															(6) Kingston Queen 16/1, £80,000 point winner steadily progressive in bumpers, landing the odds in mares' event at Sedgefield 3 weeks ago. Needs more again up in grade. Easy win at Sedgefield but against newcomers; her limitations may be exposed today.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +22%) Charisma Cat		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(1) Charisma Cat 7/2, Out of a Group 1-winning hurdler in France and has made the perfect start in bumpers, scoring at Southwell and Warwick 6 months apart. Strong claims in hat-trick bid. Faces much tougher opposition but it's hard to knock her unbeaten record (2-2); respected.
3	3 3rd (3) (13/8 +51%) Dream Shadow		1.625 13/8(+51%)																															(3) Dream Shadow 13/8, Irish point winner and improved from first go in this sphere at Uttoxeter when scoring 6 months on in October. One to keep on side for last year's successful yard. Won with something to spare at Uttoxeter and that form has been franked by the runner-up.
4	5 4th (5) (11/1 -100%) Getawhisky		11 11/1(-100%)																															(5) Getawhisky 11/1, Sister to useful hurdler/smart chase winner One For Rosie and followed in his footsteps by making a successful start in bumpers at Carlisle 10 weeks ago, overcoming inexperience. Entitled to improve and top yard (1 of 2 runners) have a strong bumper team. Won on debut at Carlisle in November and that form has been franked by the runner-up.
5th	7 5th (7) (13/2 +19%) Queenofthejukebox		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(7) Queenofthejukebox 13/2, Second in a point and built on promising start in this sphere at Aintree (race worked out well) when easily winning at Wetherby 7 weeks ago. Can go on again. Wetherby winner; today is a much tougher test of her credentials but she was impressive.
6th	2 6th (2) (100/1 -52%) Crying Lightning		100 100/1(-52%)																															(2) Crying Lightning 100/1, Well held in bumpers at Cheltenham (listed event) and Carlisle, failing to improve on debut form when well backed last month. Likely to need more time and vulnerable in this. Soundly beaten on both starts and considerable improvement is needed.
7th	8 7th (8) (11/1 -100%) Settle Down Jill		11 11/1(-100%)																															(8) Settle Down Jill 11/1, £120,000 Irish point winner who made an encouraging start in bumpers in similar listed contest at Cheltenham 9 weeks ago. Entitled to improve and 1 of 2 runners for stable with strong hand in this division this term. Point winner who was creditable Listed 4th on bumper debut; could have lots more to offer.
8th	9 8th (9) (17/2 +15%) Smile Back		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(9) Smile Back 17/2, £30,000 Irish point winner who produced an impressive display when taking Carlisle bumper last month, galloping strongly and pulling clear with the promising runner-up. Could be well above average. Did it nicely on bumper debut at Carlisle and this likeable prospect is one to consider.
9th	10 9th (10) (14/1 +44%) Chatty Girl		14 14/1(+44%)																															(10) Chatty Girl 14/1, Caught the eye both beforehand and during the race itself as she made a winning start at Newbury last month, showing a great attitude for a newcomer. Gets plenty of weight and 4-y-os do well in this. Got to be considered. Won junior bumper at Newbury; 4yos won this race three times in a row between 2019-2021.
10th	4 10th (4) (18/1 -80%) Elusive Feeling		18 18/1(-80%)																															(4) Elusive Feeling 18/1, €42,000 Diamond Boy mare. Dam 2m hurdle/chase winner, also 9f winner on Flat. Thrown in at the deep end on debut but yard enjoying a tremendous run and bumper runners been going well. Debutante, but trainer won this last year with rules newcomer (albeit point runner-up).

Fergal O'Brien landed this prize with the smart Dysart Enos in 2023 and he will be hoping Dream Shadow is of a similar ilk. She created a favourable impression when winning at the second time of asking under Rules in a Uttoxeter bumper in October and, with the promise of more to come, she must be respected. That said, GETAWHISKY is narrowly preferred. She scored in the style of a potentially smart mare when coming from well off the pace to land the spoils over 2m1f at Carlisle in November. Charisma Cat is also noteworthy.

SMILE BACK created a taking impression when scoring at Carlisle and looks a good prospect. She can take this step up in class in her stride and remain unbeaten. Charisma Cat is an obvious player after making it 2-2 at Warwick, while Dan Skelton, who has a good squad of bumper horses this season, has a strong hand with Getawhisky and Settle Down Jill. Dream Shadow and sole 4-y-o Chatty Girl must also be in calculations.

Fergal O'Brien does extremely well in mares' bumpers and DREAM SHADOW earns the vote ahead of Settle Down Jill.

1	2 1st (2) (15/8 +50%) Roaring Legend		1.875 15/8(+50%)																															(2) Roaring Legend 15/8, First run since leaving Olly Murphy when winning 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (14f, 5/1) 13 days ago, soon clear. Not taken lightly in his current mood despite a 10 lb hike in the weights. Registered a 6l win at Wolverhampton on debut for new yard; unexposed over staying trips.
2	1 2nd (1) (6/1 +20%) Wise Eagle		6 6/1(+20%)																															(1) Wise Eagle 6/1, C&D winner who easily bagged novice hurdle at Catterick (19.3f, good) 31 days ago. Much respected back in this sphere. Straightforward tasks over hurdles the last twice; this is a harder assignment.
3	5 3rd (5) (17/2 -21%) Cello		8.5 17/2(-21%)																															(5) Cello 17/2, Creditable third of 6 to Dreams Adozen in handicap (9/4) at this C&D 16 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. Lightly raced; creditable third to Dreams Adozen over C&D (first 2m attempt) last time.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 +25%) Cool Party		3 3/1(+25%)																															(3) Cool Party 3/1, Three AW wins from 7 runs last year. Very good fourth of 11 in handicap (11/4) at Kempton (16f) 37 days ago, slowly away. Has to be taken seriously. Solid form at Kempton of late; thereabouts provided he's as effective at Newcastle.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/1 +41%) Arqoob		5 5/1(+41%)																															(4) Arqoob 5/1, Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 40/1) 13 days ago, running on. In the mix. Winning hurdler at this distance but has never raced beyond 1m3f on the Flat.
6th	7 6th (7) (18/1 -200%) Dreams Adozen		18 18/1(-200%)																															(7) Dreams Adozen 18/1, Won 6-runner handicap at this C&D (7/1) 16 days ago, rallying. Needs considering despite racing off a 3 lb higher mark here. Opened her AW account with C&D win on New Year's Day; may well remain competitive.
7th	6 7th (6) (12/1 +14%) Zealandia		12 12/1(+14%)																															(6) Zealandia 12/1, C&D winner. Visored for 1st time, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 10/1) 37 days ago. Has fallen to a workable mark. Defied a 6lb higher mark over C&D last January (sole AW win); interesting back here.

Recent C&D winner Dreams Adozen merits respect raised just 3lb in the handicap, but ROARING LEGEND could be the answer. The son of Roaring Lion hadn't been seen on the Flat since winning at Pontefract in September 2023, but it was worth the wait as he bolted up over 1m6f at Wolverhampton earlier this month. A 10lb rise will ask sterner questions of him, as will the step up in trip, but he's not fully exposed in this sphere and could have more to offer. Cello heads the remainder.

COOL PARTY scored three times in 2024 and looks the way to go here on the back of a very good Kempton fourth last time out. Roaring Legend made a winning start for Hugo Palmer at Wolverhampton recently and is next on the list, although Arqoob, Cello and Dreams Adozen can all have a say too in this open contest.

Preference is for ROARING LEGEND, who scored in great style on his debut for Hugo Palmer. Cello is second choice.

5th	2 5th (2) (6/1 -167%) Global Export		6 6/1(-167%)																															(2) Global Export 6/1, 9/1, career best when winning 9-runner novice chase at Down Royal (20.6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut. Has good chance on form. Narrow winner of a Down Royal beginners' event, interesting here for his in-form stable.
6th	9 6th (9) (20/1 +0%) Andyourbirdcansing		20 20/1(+0%)																															(9) Andyourbirdcansing 20/1, Fair winner at 18f over hurdles. 14/1, seventh of 8 in handicap chase at Thurles (16.6f, good) 57 days ago. Back up in trip. Fourth in a handicap chase at Tramore in October, finished last at Thurles on latest.
7th	4 7th (4) (5/4 +50%) Rolly Bowley Boy		1.25 5/4(+50%)																															(4) Rolly Bowley Boy 5/4, 14/1, first run since leaving Ciaran Murphy when good second of 9 in handicap chase at Punchestown (19.7f, soft) 17 days ago, clear of rest. Merits consideration. 0-10 over fences, second five times including solid recent Punchestown run on yard debut.

ROLLY BOWLEY BOY ran into a progressive rival in Folly Master at Punchestown on New Year's Eve and may get his turn now. The Carlotamix gelding made a bold bid from the front there and despite getting 3lb for that effort, he is capable of landing a race of this standard. Global Export comes here in winning form and has to be respected. The Golden Horn gelding got up late on to win his beginners chase at Down Royal and should be competitive off this mark of 118. Top-weight Street Value is tried in blinkers and may be capable of better now down in grade over fences.

GLOBAL EXPORT showed improved form to get off the mark in this sphere at Down Royal 3 weeks ago and he appeals as the type who'll do better again now handicapping. Rolly Bowley Boy made a promising start for this yard when runner-up at Punchestown on his return last month and rates a big threat.

With 7lb claimed ROLLY BOWLEY BOY, a five-time runner-up over fences, is taken to score on his second outing for Philip Rothwell

1	13 1st (13) (11/4 +66%) Secret Squirrel		2.75 11/4(+66%)																															(13) Secret Squirrel 11/4, Landed a pair of 2m novice wins last season and built on solid comeback this term when in the process of running a cracker at Ascot 49 days ago, fared much the best of those who tracked strong pace, led home straight and only 2 lengths down when fell last. Big player if none the worse for that. Clear third when falling at final flight at Ascot; interesting contender off the same mark.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/2 +30%) Kabral Du Mathan		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(3) Kabral Du Mathan 7/2, Progressive sort. Completed hat-trick when readily winning on handicap debut/reappearance in November. Nearly preserved his unbeaten record when narrowly denied in a valuable handicap at Ascot last month (beaten short-head, second of 12). That was a huge effort considering his lack of experience. Up 8lb for short-headed defeat at Ascot but this unexposed 5yo could continue to progress.
3	4 3rd (4) (20/1 -100%) Knickerbockerglory		20 20/1(-100%)																															(4) Knickerbockerglory 20/1, Winner on his reappearance the past three seasons, clearly best when fresh. Dominant victory on ground he loves (heavy) when winning at Sandown (16f) 41 days ago, dictated matters but won with plenty in hand. Respected but ground conditions and the run of the race may not be as favourable today. Comfortably made all on reappearance in small field at Sandown, but this is tougher.
4	12 4th (12) (6/1 +14%) Navajo Indy		6 6/1(+14%)																															(12) Navajo Indy 6/1, Progressive sort who arrives here seeking a four-timer following a career-best when landing a nice pot at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) 48 days ago, getting first run on runner-up and just kept up to his work late on. Clearly going in the right direction and should run well again. Completed hat-trick on handicap debut in competitive race at Newbury; key player up 8lb.
5th	9 5th (9) (33/1 +0%) Hardy Du Seuil		33 33/1(+0%)																															(9) Hardy Du Seuil 33/1, Career-best hurdles run (second of 8 at Carlisle, 17f, soft) on comeback last month, no chance with well-backed winner but clear of the third. Hasn't stood much racing in past few seasons, so needs to prove he can back that up and this is the most competitive hurdle race he's encountered in a while. Reappeared with fair second at Carlisle but this is hotter and others are more compelling.
6th	11 6th (11) (15/2 +6%) Wreckless Eric		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(11) Wreckless Eric 15/2, Confirmed the promise of his reappearance when winning a competitive 2m handicap at Cheltenham in November, receiving an 8 lb hike. Found himself out of his ground when second at the same venue last month, winner given too much rope. Up another 3 lb for that effort but can give another good account. Strong form in handicap hurdles at Cheltenham this season and he could continue to improve.
7th	5 7th (5) (14/1 -75%) Beat The Bat		14 14/1(-75%)																															(5) Beat The Bat 14/1, Bumper winner who quickly made up into a very useful hurdler last winter, scoring at Ascot (19f) before an excellent second in 2m Cheltenham novice. Back from 11 months off when good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Haydock (18.9f, soft, 7/1) 49 days ago and remains low mileage and of interest. Good second at Haydock on handicap/seasonal debut and could have more left in the tank.
8th	2 8th (2) (10/1 -25%) Hansard		10 10/1(-25%)																															(2) Hansard 10/1, Smart hurdler who landed the Gerry Feilden at Newbury in December 2023. Looked to be carrying some condition prior to eye-catching comeback run when fourth of 8 at Kempton, travelled sweetly into home straight and not given hard time once chance had gone. That should put him spot on for this. Won good handicap at Newbury last season and could build on last month's comeback fourth.
9th	14 9th (14) (33/1 -32%) Tour Ovalie		33 33/1(-32%)																															(14) Tour Ovalie 33/1, Progressive mare who landed hat-trick with career-best when beating Break My Soul at Newbury (16.3f) 20 days ago, ridden-patiently, travelled well and delivered to lead in last 50 yds. Up 12 lb for that win and while she's earned a crack at this pot, it's a tough ask from 5 lbs out of the handicap. Completed hat-trick at Newbury last time but is 12lb higher in this hotter race.
10th	6 10th (6) (25/1 -39%) Cracking Rhapsody		25 25/1(-39%)																															(6) Cracking Rhapsody 25/1, Big improver in handicaps in 2024 winning the Morebattle and finishing excellent third of 15 in the Scottish Champion Hurdle on final start. Disappointed in the Greatwood this season but back on track in a less competitive handicap hurdle at Kelso last month, won decisively. Each-way player. Won by 4l at Kelso last month; has a progressive profile but is back up in grade here.
11th	8 11th (8) (16/1 +20%) Go Dante		16 16/1(+20%)																															(8) Go Dante 16/1, Winner of the Imperial Cup at Sandown (soft) in March but hasn't hit the same heights this season. Didn't respond to removal of headgear when pulled-up at Ascot 27 days ago, beaten a long way out. Cheekpieces back on but something to prove on recent evidence. Won the Imperial Cup last month but below par the last twice and has to get back on track.
12th	1 12th (1) (18/1 -29%) Brentford Hope		18 18/1(-29%)																															(1) Brentford Hope 18/1, Excellent strike rate over hurdles including brace of handicap wins in March. Solid start this season when second in Grade 2 Elite Hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, good), chasing home race-fit rival. Strong-travelling sort will be well-suited to this test and gets vote of confidence from stable jockey. Thrived in handicaps last spring and could give a good account, despite his lofty mark.
13th	7 13th (7) (28/1 -40%) Givemefive		28 28/1(-40%)																															(7) Givemefive 28/1, One of three in the race for Harry Derham yard. Decent 1¼ lengths victory in class 2 hurdle at Cheltenham (16.4f, good) in October and ran to a similar level fourth of 7 in Mullinan Hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good) 48 days ago. Entitled to be competitive but may find a few too good. Plenty of good form in 4yo hurdles last year but has to prove he's up to this opening mark.
14th	10 14th (10) (28/1 -100%) Court In The Act		28 28/1(-100%)																															(10) Court In The Act 28/1, Well-backed on his return landing a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f) by 8 lengths, made all, jumped fluently. Has shown some temperament but is clearly talented and not ruled out only sixth hurdles start for in-form yard, although stable jockey prefers Brentford Hope. Won easily at Market Rasen on reappearance; up in grade here but may take it in his stride.

As expected with a decent pot on offer, this is wide open and only a tentative vote can go to NAVAJO INDY. The son of Nathaniel got off the mark over hurdles at Wincanton last April before returning to win under a penalty at Bangor in October. A mark of 120 proved lenient as he landed the Gerry Feilden at Newbury the following month and further progress could be forthcoming. Kabral Du Mathan lost his unbeaten record in a premier handicap at Ascot last month but that was another excellent performance and he's of obvious interest again, while others to note include Beat The Bat, Knickerbockerglory and Hansard.

HANSARD has a high cruising speed that should be suited to the demands of a well-run, big-field handicap and a very promising comeback effort suggests that Gary Moore's 7 y-o gelding could be as good as ever. He can land this valuable pot at the chief expense of Secret Squirrel who was still in the mix when taking a final flight tumble at Ascot, despite having helped force a strong pace. Of the remainder, progressive 5 y-os Wreckless Eric and Kabral Du Mathan can run well in a wide-open contest.

This could go SECRET SQUIRREL, who was running a fine race in a clear third when falling at the final flight at Ascot last month.

1	10 1st (10) (15/8 +58%) Eyed		1.875 15/8(+58%)																															(10) Eyed 15/8, Fair hurdler/chaser for Paul Webber and confirmed stable debut promise when off the mark in this sphere over 21.4f at this course on his penultimate start. Got no further than the first fence at Lingfield since but will be a danger to all granted a clear round here. Ready winner here in November and could still be well treated even though 9lb higher.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/2 +35%) Peejaybee		5.5 11/2(+35%)																															(5) Peejaybee 11/2, Successful 3 times over hurdles and notched second win in this sphere when accounting for 6 rivals at Perth (2½m, soft) in September. Held form well since (still bang there when making a mistake 3 out at Leicester last time) and he's a plausible each-way candidate. Consistent sort who won twice last year and might not be far away.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/2 +15%) Knockanore		5.5 11/2(+15%)																															(2) Knockanore 11/2, Fairly useful winning hurdler who returned to the pick of his form in that sphere when opening chase account in good style at Uttoxeter (2½m, heavy) in December. Wasn't in the same form over the same C&D 11 days later, though, and he'll need to be slicker in the jumping department here. Easy win at Uttoxeter last month and subsequent run may have come too soon.
4	7 4th (7) (25/1 +0%) Gold Link		25 25/1(+0%)																															(7) Gold Link 25/1, Successful twice in 2023 but now finds himself with a fair bit to prove having struggled all 3 starts since returning from a break October. Well handicapped on form as recent as last January but unable to get competitive since.
5th	8 5th (8) (33/1 -65%) Just Loose Change		33 33/1(-65%)																															(8) Just Loose Change 33/1, Twice a winner over hurdles and much improved in this sphere when rallying for success in novices' handicap at Huntingdon (23.6f, good) in November. However, he has proved disappointing both starts since, particularly when pulled up at Hereford last time. Cheekpieces applied. Won at Huntingdon in November but well beaten/pulled up the next twice.
6th	1 6th (1) (4/1 +50%) Magical Escape		4 4/1(+50%)																															(1) Magical Escape 4/1, Resumed after a wind op with a promising second of 5 in handicap chase (9/4) at Exeter (24.2f, good) on his debut over fences in October. However, he took a backward step at Chepstow later that month and has been absent since. Promising second on chase debut and found to be lame next time; retains potential.
7th	12 7th (12) (9/1 +55%) Giovanni Change		9 9/1(+55%)																															(12) Giovanni Change 9/1, Four-time hurdles winner who posted his best effort for a while when third in a 9-runner handicap here (27.6f, good to soft) last month. It was still some way short of his best form, though, and others make more appeal from a win standpoint. 10yo who isn't the force of old but is on a reduced mark and likes it here; not discounted.
4	4 |PU| (4) (4/1 -14%) Jeffery's Cross		4 4/1(-14%)																															(4) Jeffery's Cross 4/1, Took his form up a notch when gaining a first win over fences in 14-runner handicap at Haydock in April 2023. Shaped as though all his ability remains intact when third back from 19 months off at Windsor (24.2f, good to soft) and he's of strong interest here with that run under his belt. Returned from long absence with encouraging third at Windsor and could build on that.
9	9 |PU| (9) (18/1 -50%) Rock Danse		18 18/1(-50%)																															(9) Rock Danse 18/1, Point scorer who struck at the third time of asking over hurdles in a Hexham maiden in December 2023. No real impact in 4 subsequent starts but he should at least come on for his reappearance/chase debut spin at Ffos Las where he was returning from a 10-month absence. Soundly beaten on chase debut but after an absence; has hinted at staying potential.
11	11 |PU| (11) (33/1 -136%) Chosen Templar		33 33/1(-136%)																															(11) Chosen Templar 33/1, Bumper winner in Ireland and made a successful hurdling/stable debut in 6-runner novice hurdle at Musselburgh (23.8f, soft) last January. Showed aptitude for chasing on debut in this sphere at Ludlow and improvement could be forthcoming. Bumper and 3m maiden hurdle winner who shaped as though he needed the run on chase debut.

EYED impressed when fairly bolting up here on his penultimate start, before getting no further than the first fence at Lingfield most recently. Provided he is none the worse for that mishap, he gets the nod to return to winning ways. Magical Escape wasn't totally disgraced when fifth over 3m2f on just his second start over fences at Chepstow latest and this unexposed chaser could make his presence felt, along with Knockanore.

Save for his early exit last time, EYED has made a very positive start for this yard and a 9 lb rise for his breakthrough success over fences here in November may not be enough to stop him. Jeffery's Cross put in a decent shift back from a lengthy absence at Windsor and he is greatly respected, while Geryville and Awaythelad have both edged down to attractive marks and will be dangerous if on-song.

Having changed stables this season, EYED could still have more to offer for Hughie Morrison and can add to his win here in November.

1	4 1st (4) (11/4 -47%) Brazilian Rose		2.75 11/4(-47%)																															(4) Brazilian Rose 11/4, Arrives on the up after back-to-back C&D wins recently. Scored comfortably on latter occasion 6 days ago so she's a player under a 5 lb penalty in her hat-trick bid. Couple of C&D wins under Kaiya Fraser this month; did it comfortably last time; respected.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/2 +0%) Novak		5.5 11/2(+0%)																															(1) Novak 11/2, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Good fourth of 6 in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 6 days ago. Very much one to consider. Scored over C&D on New Year's Day; ran creditably here last Saturday; not ruled out.
3	9 3rd (9) (11/2 +31%) Profit Street		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(9) Profit Street 11/2, Course winner. 17/2, creditable fifth of 12 to Novak in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago. Needs considering. Both wins at this venue; ties in with Novak; possibilities off current mark.
4	2 4th (2) (14/1 -100%) Strong Power		14 14/1(-100%)																															(2) Strong Power 14/1, Twenty four runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 7 in handicap (50/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 21 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Not sure to build on latest effort; 0-11 for current yard and hasn't won since 2022.
5th	3 5th (3) (7/1 -40%) Hiatus		7 7/1(-40%)																															(3) Hiatus 7/1, Three wins from 14 runs last year. Latest win at Chelmsford City in December. Good second of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 12/1) 13 days ago. Holds solid claims off the same mark. Solid second at Southwell last time (form is working out nicely); strong contender.
6th	6 6th (6) (5/1 +58%) One More Dream		5 5/1(+58%)																															(6) One More Dream 5/1, 3-time C&D winner. 28/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 20 days ago. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Could prove resurgent off current mark and with Warren Fentiman taking off 7lb.
7th	5 7th (5) (13/2 -18%) Sibyl Charm		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(5) Sibyl Charm 13/2, C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. Creditable sixth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Beverley (5f, good to firm). Off 139 days but no forlorn hope. Consistent AW record features three wins here; returns to this sphere off a handy mark.
8th	8 8th (8) (20/1 +39%) Rory		20 20/1(+39%)																															(8) Rory 20/1, C&D winner but only eleventh of 12 to Novak in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 16 days ago. Unreliable type. Needs to rebound, having posted a duck egg here on New Year's Day reappearance.
9th	7 9th (7) (50/1 -52%) Nazca		50 50/1(-52%)																															(7) Nazca 50/1, 3-time C&D winner. 50/1, last of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 169 days with work to do. Lacks recent match practice (poor record fresh) and remains on career-high mark.

Unexposed four-year-old BRAZILIAN ROSE recorded her second C&D success on the bounce last Saturday and, given the manner in which she won that day, the 5lb penalty she must shoulder is unlikely to halt further progress. Hiatus bumped into an in-form rival at Southwell recently and should go close from an unchanged rating, while Strong Power continues to edge down the weights and isn't one to underestimate following a creditable third at Wolverhampton three weeks ago.

BRAZILIAN ROSE's form is on an upward curve so Rebecca Menzies' low-mileage 4-y-o is fancied to defy a 5 lb penalty and complete a C&D hat-trick. Hiatus figures on a handy-looking mark and heads the list of dangers, with Novak, Strong Power and Profit Street all worthy of consideration too.

Hat-trick seeker Brazilian Rose holds obvious claims but a solid alternative is HIATUS, whose latest effort has substance.

1	15 1st (15) (14/1 -17%) Ufouria		14 14/1(-17%)																															(15) Ufouria 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 12 in bumper at Limerick (16f, soft, 7/2) 22 days ago, faring best of those held up. Beaten by a smart mare on debut, probably needed recent Limerick run, worth considering.
2	7 2nd (7) (2/1 +20%) Lau And Shaz		2 2/1(+20%)																															(7) Lau And Shaz 2/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Tongue strap on for 1st time, fifth of 20 in novice hurdle at Naas (16.2f, good to soft, 11/1) on hurdles bow 32 days ago. Switches from hurdles to bumpers. Needs considering. Fair run over hurdles last time and entitled to respect on her previous bumper form.
3	14 3rd (14) (80/1 -60%) Taktique Gagnante		80 80/1(-60%)																															(14) Taktique Gagnante 80/1, Once-raced maiden. 100/1, eighth of 18 in bumper at Thurles (16.1f, good) on NH debut 27 days ago. Made a satisfactory bumper debut when finishing in mid-field at Thurles, a lot more needed.
4	8 4th (8) (80/1 -21%) Mighty Moments		80 80/1(-21%)																															(8) Mighty Moments 80/1, Lauro mare. Half-sister to modest hurdler Jack The Farmer, stays 3¼m. Likely to need more time and distance. Unraced dam out of half-sister to high-class bumper/hurdle/chase winner Micko's Dream.
5th	9 5th (9) (12/1 +14%) Miss Penny Copper		12 12/1(+14%)																															(9) Miss Penny Copper 12/1, Champs Elysees mare. Closely related to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Copper Nation. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Copper Gone West. Successful on second of 2 starts in points (Apr 20). Showed promise with a point-to-point win last April, has missed several engagements.
6th	13 6th (13) (33/1 -106%) So Far Away		33 33/1(-106%)																															(13) So Far Away 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good third of 12 in bumper at Limerick (16f, soft, 20/1) 22 days ago. Ran her best race so far when third at Limerick after Christmas with Ufouria fourth.
7th	11 7th (11) (10/1 0%) Queen's Meadow		10 10/1(0%)																															(11) Queen's Meadow 10/1, Getaway mare. Sister to bumper winner Meadowsweet. Dam (h95), 2m/17f hurdle winner (stayed 2½m), half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser (stayed 2¾m) Emcon. Makes some appeal on paper. Sister to bumper winner Meadowsweet, dam 2m hurdle winner, comes from a good nursery.
8th	2 8th (2) (50/1 -52%) Bossing It		50 50/1(-52%)																															(2) Bossing It 50/1, Once-raced maiden. 12/1, sixth of 11 in bumper at Tramore (16.2f, heavy) on NH debut 52 days ago. Dropped away in the final half-mile on debut at Tramore, likely to need more experience.
9th	5 9th (5) (14/1 -40%) Former Flame		14 14/1(-40%)																															(5) Former Flame 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 13 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good to soft, 7/1) 163 days ago. Solid efforts in first two bumpers though soundly beaten each time, needs to find extra.
10th	1 10th (1) (2/1 -14%) Adela Icon		2 2/1(-14%)																															(1) Adela Icon 2/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 10 in bumper at Sligo (18.2f, good to soft, 14/1). Off 17 months. First run for yard after leaving David Harry Kelly. Twice runner-up in bumpers in 2023 for Harry Kelly, strong contender for champion trainer.
11th	3 11th (3) (33/1 0%) Dolly's Call		33 33/1(0%)																															(3) Dolly's Call 33/1, Once-raced maiden. Ninth of 15 in bumper (20/1) at Punchestown (16.6f, good) on NH debut. Off 7 months. Never involved on debut at Punchestown last June, should be more mature now, can improve.
12th	6 12th (6) (66/1 -100%) Gers Shadow		66 66/1(-100%)																															(6) Gers Shadow 66/1, Vadamos mare. Half-sister to a point winner. Dam (b84), lightly raced in bumpers, sister to useful hurdler/fair chaser (stayed 2½m) Shadow Eile. Dam is a sister to useful winners Corskeagh Royale, Shadow Eile and He Rock's.

Half-sister to winners abroad by Zebedee and Alhebayeb. Dam, maiden hurdler, 1½m winner on Flat. Held when fell 3 out sole outing in points (Nov 23). Fell three out in a point at Boulta in November, this test may be more to her taste.
14th	4 14th (4) (150/1 -50%) Ellies Rock		150 150/1(-50%)																															(4) Ellies Rock 150/1, Once-raced maiden. Eleventh of 18 in novice hurdle (50/1) at this course (20f, soft) on NH debut 35 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Hooded for 1st time. Jumping was untidy and finished down the field in a 2m4f maiden hurdle at this venue.

ADELA ICON is obviously interesting here on her first start for Willie Mullins. The Snow Sky mare was runner-up in a couple of bumpers back in the summer of 2023 for Harry Kelly. Temple Bloodstock's Aubrey McMahon has done well with his purchases in recent seasons. Lau And Shaz has strong recent form and rates the main danger. Gavin Cromwell's charge was a promising fifth on her hurdling debut last time, having been placed in two bumpers previously. Former Flame was also placed in two bumpers, towards the start of the season, and has to come into calculations.

LAU AND SHAZ was placed in a couple of bumpers before making an encouraging debut over hurdles at Naas last month and shades the vote over Adela Icon, who's coming back from an absence on his first start for Wille Mullins.

It could pay to gamble on the ability of UFOURIA to improve considerably from a comeback run at Limerick. Her 2023 debut was promising

1	6 1st (6) (6/4 +45%) Hasthing		1.5 6/4(+45%)																															(6) Hasthing 6/4, Fairly useful winning hurdler who confirmed promise of chasing debut when landing handicap at this course (20.2f, good to soft) in December, asserting final 1f. Major player with further improvement to come upped in trip. Won here (2m4f) last month, travelling best and finding plenty despite two late mistakes.
2	4 2nd (4) (18/1 -112%) Tyre Kicker		18 18/1(-112%)																															(4) Tyre Kicker 18/1, Won first 3 starts sent chasing back in 2022/23 and shaped encouragingly after 19-month absence when runner-up at Galway in October. Below form both outings since, but yard's runners in Britain have to be taken seriously. Good second at Galway (2m6f, soft) in October before two lesser efforts over 3m.
3	14 3rd (14) (9/1 +10%) Hold Up La Colmine		9 9/1(+10%)																															(14) Hold Up La Colmine 9/1, Irish point winner who was a narrow winner on handicap hurdle bow at Sedgefield in March 2023. After 21 months off, matched that level when fifth of 14 at Hexham (20.1f, soft) on chase debut in December and is open to improvement in this sphere. 629 days off before an encouraging chase debut, despite errors; yard is in blinding form.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 -100%) Es Perfecto		18 18/1(-100%)																															(5) Es Perfecto 18/1, Made it fifth time lucky in chases when capitalising on reduced mark at Kempton (20.5f, good to soft) on reappearance. Not in the same form returned to the same C&D 22 days ago, but he could bounce back with cheekpieces applied. Not so hot on Boxing Day; trip may well be manageable if back on song in first headgear.
5th	13 5th (13) (22/1 -38%) Thor De Cerisy		22 22/1(-38%)																															(13) Thor De Cerisy 22/1, Back-to-back winner at Chepstow (both at 19.5f) last season and after a couple of lesser efforts he returned to form when runner-up in veterans event at Lingfield (20f, soft) in December, albeit no match for winner. This is tougher. Back to some form on latest outing but this 11yo goes for the first time beyond 2m4f.
6th	1 6th (1) (15/2 -7%) Hititi		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(1) Hititi 15/2, Developed into useful hurdler last season and has matched that level back over fences this season, bumping into one who has scored again since in handicap at Exeter (24.2f, soft) 29 days ago. Respected. Chalking up the seconds, in cheekpieces this term; minor honours again look his best hope.
7th	2 7th (2) (100/1 -150%) Do Your Job		100 100/1(-150%)																															(2) Do Your Job 100/1, Grade 2 winner as a novice. Low-key start to last season but back on scoresheet at Wetherby on Boxing Day 2023. However, just the one decent effort from 4 starts for this yard since, so he looks to be up against it. Cheekpieces back on. Has fired only once in his four starts for new yard; returning cheekpieces might help.
11	11 |F| (11) (20/1 -11%) Red Rookie		20 20/1(-11%)																															(11) Red Rookie 20/1, Winless last season and went with little fluency when well-beaten fourth of 7 at Haydock (16.3f, heavy) on return. Has fallen further in the weights, but others still more persuasive as he goes back up in trip with visor reached for. 10yo who is 2-16 over fences with latest win in March 2023; different headgear.
10	10 |F| (10) (33/1 -50%) Carbon King		33 33/1(-50%)																															(10) Carbon King 33/1, Three-time winner over hurdles in Ireland and landed 2 handicap chase victories for this yard last term. After a couple of runs over hurdles, not discredited back chasing at Ascot (18.8f, soft) 27 days ago, but will need to find more again. Very hit and miss last term but seems to be working his way back to form this season.
8	8 |U| (8) (28/1 -180%) Stormy Flight		28 28/1(-180%)																															(8) Stormy Flight 28/1, Successful twice at Exeter last season, including when tried in veterans company in March. With reappearance behind him, good second in handicap at the same course (19.2f, heavy) last time and he can give his running once more. 11yo who is 3-15 over fences; went close last time but this race looks too competitive.
3	3 |PU| (3) (9/2 +55%) Jupiter Du Gite		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(3) Jupiter Du Gite 9/2, Not straightforward but opened chase account at second attempt at Uttoxeter in March last year. Runner-up at Fontwell on return, before reverting to his free-going ways when third at Sandown (24.2f, good to soft) last time. Has the ability to get involved. Headstrong front-runner; two places this term, latest when up from 2m4f to 3m at Newbury.
7	7 |PU| (7) (12/1 -41%) Hugos New Horse		12 12/1(-41%)																															(7) Hugos New Horse 12/1, Five-time hurdle winner in 2022/23 campaign. Lost way subsequently but made promising chase debut when never-nearer second of 5 in handicap at Plumpton (19.8f, good to soft) in December. Merits consideration back up in trip. Close second of five at Plumpton (2m4f) last month on chase debut, staging a major rally.
9	9 |PU| (9) (14/1 -56%) Ballycamus		14 14/1(-56%)																															(9) Ballycamus 14/1, Successful on chase debut at Chepstow last season and added to his tally at Warwick a year ago. Some good efforts in defeat since, before getting back to winning ways at this course (24.2f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Could be in the mix. Two wins at about 2m4f last winter; another over 3m here in a good scrap on latest outing.
12	12 |PU| (12) (25/1 -178%) Jamaico		25 25/1(-178%)																															(12) Jamaico 25/1, Lightly raced and off the mark at third attempt over fences at Auteuil (17.4f) in June 2023, his final run for Emmanuel Clayeux. Changed hands for €310,000, before facing stiff task at Cheltenham when last seen 10 months ago. Makes handicap debut. 150-1 in Cheltenham Grade 1 on British debut; should be vastly more interesting in this.

HASTHING shaped with promise over 2m on his chasing debut in November but a step up in trip appeared to hold the key to him as he recorded a comfortable victory over 2m4f here last time. Although 7lb higher, he is unlikely to have reached the ceiling of his ability yet and an extra two furlongs should be beneficial. Stormy Flight pushed an improver all the way at Exeter last month and is of interest off 1lb higher, along with the consistent Jupiter Du Gite.

HASTHING has made a promising start over fences this season, scoring with a bit in hand at this course on his latest outing, so he is taken to follow up with more still to offer as he goes up in distance. Hugos New Horse got back on track when runner-up on chase debut and is another potential improver in the line-up, with Hititi completing the shortlist.

While most can be given an each-way chance, HASTHING and Hold Up La Colmine seem to bring clearly the most potential.

1	4 1st (4) (5/6 +52%) Mehman		0.833333 5/6(+52%)																															(4) Mehman 5/6, Course winner. Creditable second of 11 in handicap (10/3) at this C&D 35 days ago, just failing. Got to come good again here soon. Strong-finishing C&D second last month; major player.
2	6 2nd (6) (3/1 +25%) Mint Man		3 3/1(+25%)																															(6) Mint Man 3/1, Didn't need to improve to win 7-runner maiden (8/11) at this course (5f) 37 days ago by length from Crystal Luna. Not dismissed back in a handicap. Recent maiden win franked since; major chance with rider's claim a positive.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 -33%) Dream Today		10 10/1(-33%)																															(5) Dream Today 10/1, 4-time C&D winner. Eleven defeats since taking this race last year. Tenth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 35 days ago, slowly away. Blinkers on 1st time. Needs a revival but it's possible in the new headgear. Last year's winner will appreciate return to more positive tactics.
4	1 4th (1) (11/1 -10%) Heart Of Darkness		11 11/1(-10%)																															(1) Heart Of Darkness 11/1, C&D winner. 3/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Cork (6f, good to firm) 128 days ago. First run for yard after leaving P. Twomey. Needs to improve from this mark. Lightly raced C&D maiden winner with Paddy Twomey; could have more to offer.
5th	3 5th (3) (14/1 +22%) Genesis		14 14/1(+22%)																															(3) Genesis 14/1, C&D winner. Below form eighth of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to firm, 25/1) 160 days ago. Worth a look returning on this surface. Best form over C&D but lacks a recent run.
6th	7 6th (7) (15/2 -50%) Crystal Luna		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(7) Crystal Luna 15/2, Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this course (5f, 10/3) 30 days ago. More needed again in this company. Best form here at 5f; respected but possibly vulnerable.

The thoroughly admirable INISHMOT PRINCE can record a 10th career success at this venue. Tom McCourt's gelding has been slow to come to hand this winter but has shaped well enough on a couple of occasions to suggest he can be competitive off this rating. Runner-up in this race last year, the seven-year-old can open his account for the campaign. Dream Today, who beat Inishmot Prince in last years renewal, needs to return to his best to follow up. However, there have been signs in recent months that the gelding remains a force in this grade. Heart Of Darkness is an interesting runner on her debut for Ado McGuinness. A maiden winner over this track and trip, she could be well treated with Jack Kearney claiming 5lb.

MEHMAN just failed in a stronger race here 5 weeks ago, continuing his good run of form at Dundalk, and can deservedly get his head back in front. Last year's 1-2 Dream Today and Inishmot Prince are feared.

First and second in a 5f maiden here last month, MINT MAN can confirm the form with Crystal Luna over this longer trip

1	5 1st (5) (11/10 +32%) Jabbar		1.1 11/10(+32%)																															(5) Jabbar 11/10, Fairly useful gelding. Five wins on the level. 4/1, creditable second of 16 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 81 days ago. Holds his form well and could be the way to go. Naas premier handicap third reads well; lacks a recent run but has run well fresh.
2	6 2nd (6) (14/1 -17%) Jerandme		14 14/1(-17%)																															(6) Jerandme 14/1, Good jumper at his best and dual C&D winner. Unsurprisingly looked rusty on first outing since leaving Noel Meade after 19 months off in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 49 days ago. Dual C&D winner in his day; better for comeback run but hard to be confident in now.
3	2 3rd (2) (7/2 -27%) Prairie Dancer		3.5 7/2(-27%)																															(2) Prairie Dancer 7/2, 10/1, much improved when winning 7-runner handicap chase at Thurles (20.8f, good) 27 days ago. Far from bombproof but useful in this sphere and firmly in the hunt. Recent chase winner in good order but unproven on the surface.
4	1 4th (1) (9/4 -13%) Falcon Eight		2.25 9/4(-13%)																															(1) Falcon Eight 9/4, Group 3 winner in November 2023. Creditable seventh of 24 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 48 days ago, faring best of those held up. Makes polytrack debut. Blinkers back on. Classy sort but temperamental. Very smart on turf at his best although on the decline; AW debut.
5th	3 5th (3) (50/1 -52%) Effernock Fizz		50 50/1(-52%)																															(3) Effernock Fizz 50/1, 14/1, 23¼ lengths last of 4 to La Renommee in listed chase at Doncaster (20.5f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing here. Work to do. Admirable front-runner is 0-20 on the AW and lots on at the weights here.
6th	4 6th (4) (40/1 +0%) Glam De Vega		40 40/1(+0%)																															(4) Glam De Vega 40/1, Twice a winner in 2022 for Roger Varian, including on handicap debut at Hamilton (9.2f). 100/1 and hood on for 1st time in this code, eleventh of 17 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 20 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Dual turf winner in Britain in 2022 for Roger Varian over shorter; recent hurdle form poor.

The Gerard O'Leary-trained JABBAR can maintain his rapid progress by making a winning return. A consistent handicapper on turf last season, the six-year-old improved each time he was asked to step up in trip. Having arguably run a career best when third over this distance at Naas in October, the Galileo Gold gelding looks the one to beat. A winner on the all-weather at Newcastle for previous connections, he should have no issues with this track. Falcon Eight, who finished one place behind Jabbar at Naas, has to be of interest. Although yet to tackle an artificial surface, the veteran has been running well of late. Prairie Dancer is another with limited experience on the all-weather but he comes here on the back of a win over fences at Thurles.

Tricky stuff but JABBAR didn't run a bad race in either code for Gerard O'Leary last year and could be the way to go ahead of Falcon Eight and Prairie Dancer.

An AW winner in Britain, JABBAR appeals off this mark, ahead of Prairie Dancer

1	8 1st (8) (4/1 +43%) Path To Dubai		4 4/1(+43%)																															(8) Path To Dubai 4/1, Made a winning debut here (8.1f) a year ago and ran well when second of 13 in handicap at this C&D (4/1) in August, despite needing stronger gallop. Capable of getting involved if ready to go after 5 months off. Returns from five months off but this lightly raced 4yo has strong course form.
3	2 3rd (2) (12/1 -9%) Asgard's Captain		12 12/1(-9%)																															(2) Asgard's Captain 12/1, Five wins from 13 runs last year, with latest success at Newcastle in December. Below form when sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (11.1f, 15/2) 13 days ago, but he appeals as the type to bounce back quickly. Not seen to best effect here last time and won at Newcastle last month; not ruled out.
4	10 4th (10) (20/1 -122%) Swinging London		20 20/1(-122%)																															(10) Swinging London 20/1, Gained a first victory on the Flat at this course (14.1f) in December and defied a penalty 2 days later when winning 9-runner handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 10/11) 36 days ago, easily. Up in grade but not dismissed lightly. Two commanding wins last month and could play another leading role despite weights rise.
5th	3 5th (3) (22/1 -238%) Desert Emperor		22 22/1(-238%)																															(3) Desert Emperor 22/1, Confirmed promise of previous run when winning 8-runner handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 2/1) 39 days ago. Remains well treated on old form so he could be in the mix in his current mood. Won at Newcastle last month and remains well handicapped on old form; entitled to respect.
6th	5 6th (5) (9/2 +78%) Dunstan		4.5 9/2(+78%)																															(5) Dunstan 9/2, Won first 4 starts last year, including at this C&D, when trained by Barry Brennan. After 5 months off, ran well when 2¼ lengths fourth of 9 to Wiltshire Wonder in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. More needed. Returned from break with creditable fourth over C&D and could improve for that run.
7th	7 7th (7) (11/2 -57%) Alpine Oasis		5.5 11/2(-57%)																															(7) Alpine Oasis 11/2, Stepped up on recent run when doubling her tally in 6-runner handicap (11/2) at this C&D 20 days ago, making running and keeping on well. Remains unexposed at this trip and she can make another bold bid. Easily made all over C&D last time; could still be ahead of handicapper despite 6lb rise.
8th	9 8th (9) (16/1 -60%) Gallant Lion		16 16/1(-60%)																															(9) Gallant Lion 16/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023, but took a step back in the right direction when third of 9 in handicap (7/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 2 weeks ago. On a dangerous mark if building on his latest effort. Good third at Lingfield recently; might not be far away if proving effective on Tapeta.
9th	4 9th (4) (6/1 -20%) Wiltshire Wonder		6 6/1(-20%)																															(4) Wiltshire Wonder 6/1, Bumper winner and made it 2 wins from 3 starts in handicaps on the Flat when successful in 9-runner contest (14/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. Remains lightly raced and he's a major player with more still to offer. Made it 2-2 in C&D handicaps with game win last time & this unexposed 5yo is a key player.
10th	1 10th (1) (66/1 -230%) King Ottokar		66 66/1(-230%)																															(1) King Ottokar 66/1, Useful handicapper at best but lightly raced over hurdles in recent years, off 25 months (had wind op) ahead of finishing seventh of 10 in handicap at Leicester (15.5f, good to soft, 10/1) 60 days ago. This run should reveal more. Beaten over hurdles after very long absence, but well treated on his old Flat form.
6	6 |DQ| (6) (7/2 +36%) Plage De Havre		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(6) Plage De Havre 7/2, Has progressed with each start so far, bumping into a good prospect when second of 14 in novice (10/3) at Chelmsford City (10f) 43 days ago. Remains with potential as he makes handicap debut. Runner-up in AW novices the last twice & the extra yardage could be a plus on h'cap debut.

The hat-trick seeking Swinging London commands respect but has never won a race deeper than a class 5 handicap on the Flat and has something to prove back at this level. With that in mind, it can pay to side with fellow last-time-out winner ALPINE OASIS, who looks progressive enough to shrug aside a 6lb higher rating after making all over C&D last month. Wiltshire Wonder and Desert Emperor also offer some appeal stepping up in class after winning their latest efforts.

WILTSHIRE WONDER has shown improved form since going handicapping on the Flat, overcoming a slow start (also hampered) when winning over C&D last time, and he can continue his progress to add to his tally. Heading the list of dangers is Alpine Oasis, who benefited from the step up in trip when making all here 20 days ago, ahead of Desert Emperor.

Having easily made all over C&D last month on her first crack at the trip, the unexposed 4yo ALPINE OASIS (nap) can follow up.

1	7 1st (7) (8/1 +0%) Elle Dorado Rock		8 8/1(+0%)																															(7) Elle Dorado Rock 8/1, Sixteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Punchestown (23.8f, soft) 38 days ago. Latest effort in this sphere was respectable and he's not without each-way hope. Fancied when well beaten on his return in a Punchestown handicap hurdle; not discounted.
2	2 2nd (2) (4/1 +33%) Scott Lang		4 4/1(+33%)																															(2) Scott Lang 4/1, Last of 19 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, good, 40/1) 22 days ago, going off too hard. Creditable second over 1½m here on latest in this sphere in November and solid claims upped in trip off the same mark. Good second over 1m4f here in November; should see out the trip and looks a key player.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 -11%) Nusra		10 10/1(-11%)																															(4) Nusra 10/1, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (12f, 14/1) 28 days ago, not ideally placed. Significantly back up in trip and she's one to consider. C&D winner; back to form when a close fourth in a 1m4f handicap here last month; contender.
4	3 4th (3) (13/2 +28%) Mephisto		6.5 13/2(+28%)																															(3) Mephisto 13/2, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 14 in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 28 days ago. Likely to give another good account . Second in a C&D handicap last month; stable among the winners and unlikely to be far away.
5th	1 5th (1) (12/1 +40%) Warrior Lion		12 12/1(+40%)																															(1) Warrior Lion 12/1, 16/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 13 days ago and he again looks vulnerable. Stepped up to 1m6f to little effect at Wolverhampton two weeks ago; others appeal far more.
6th	9 6th (9) (11/1 +0%) Bright Start		11 11/1(+0%)																															(9) Bright Start 11/1, Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. 16/1, creditable third of 14 in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. Live each-way chance. Staying third over C&D last month (Mephisto second); down another 2lb; each-way chance.
7th	8 7th (8) (7/1 -17%) Jet Times		7 7/1(-17%)																															(8) Jet Times 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good third of 11 in handicap (13/2) at this C&D 51 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Enters calculations. Unexposed mare ran a solid race over C&D when a staying third in a handicap in November.
8th	12 8th (12) (20/1 -43%) Wishes And Dreams		20 20/1(-43%)																															(12) Wishes And Dreams 20/1, Creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (12f, 25/1) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip and she's dangerous to discount. Not beaten that far over 1m4f here last month; not certain to get the trip.
9th	11 9th (11) (3/1 +0%) Portarlington		3 3/1(+0%)																															(11) Portarlington 3/1, 7/1, bit below form eighth of 23 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (19.8f, good) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Hat-trick over jumps; in the light of that he makes plenty of appeal here off a mark of 49.
10th	10 10th (10) (10/1 -43%) Movie King		10 10/1(-43%)																															(10) Movie King 10/1, C&D winner. 8/1 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. Place possibilities. Disappointing effort over C&D last month and the blinkers have been dispensed with.
11th	6 11th (6) (50/1 -100%) Gregorina		50 50/1(-100%)																															(6) Gregorina 50/1, Latest win at Hamilton in August. 25/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Cut no ice over this trip here last month and readily passed over.
12th	13 12th (13) (200/1 -100%) Quiet Desire		200 200/1(-100%)																															(13) Quiet Desire 200/1, Course winner. 125/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap at this course (12f) 28 days ago, slowly away.

Significantly up in trip. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Others preferred. Not much to recommend over hurdles in four runs here; makes little appeal at present.

Dual C&D winner MEPHISTO can register a third Dundalk success. Despite finishing runner-up to an easy winner here last time, the Ger Keane-trained gelding has been dropped 1lb. With Jack Kearney able to claim an additional 5lb off his back, the eight-year-old looks well handicapped at present. It would be a surprise if he wasn't very competitive in this bottom grade. Jet Times, a lightly-raced mare who ran a solid race here on her all-weather debut last time, rates a serious danger. With the benefit of that previous experience, the seven-year-old should hold strong claims under Danny Power. A three-time winner for current connections, Portarlington has to be of interest reverting to the Flat.

There was a valid excuse for SCOTT LANG's heavy defeat over hurdles at Leopardstown recently and he is appealing upped in trip off the same mark as when runner-up here in November. Jet Times took a step forward when third on her first attempt over 2m here and she is next on the list ahead of Nusra, while Bright Start is also shortlisted.

The form he has shown over jumps this winter makes PORTARLINGTON hard to ignore off a mark of just 49

Leading contender with improvement to come. Promising fourth on Wolverhampton debut three weeks ago; open to improvement.
2	11 2nd (11) (3/1 +45%) War Hawk		3 3/1(+45%)																															(11) War Hawk 3/1, Promising third at Newcastle on debut and still in need of experience when seventh of 11 in novice (9/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 78 days ago. Remains open to improvement upped in trip, so he enters calculations. Promising debut when third at Newcastle in October, but didn't improve on it next time.

Entitled to do better with that first run behind him. Green when ninth of 13 on his Kempton debut; could leave that form behind.
4	10 4th (10) (7/2 +50%) Shipshape		3.5 7/2(+50%)																															(10) Shipshape 7/2, Half-brother to several winners, including smart 6f winner Swingalong, but failed to meet expectations when ninth of 13 in novice at Kempton (8f, 4/1) on debut 44 days ago. Clearly thought capable of better. Green when ninth of 13 on his Kempton debut; bred to be much better than that.
5th	7 5th (7) (125/1 -279%) Hawkesbury Legend		125 125/1(-279%)																															(7) Hawkesbury Legend 125/1, Made some appeal on paper but held back by inexperience when seventh of 9 in novice (28/1) at this C&D on debut 34 days ago. Likely to need more time and distance. Never figured after a slow start on his debut over C&D last month; may need more time.
6th	3 6th (3) (33/1 -65%) Tapis Rouge		33 33/1(-65%)																															(3) Tapis Rouge 33/1, 35,000 gns yearling, Le Havre gelding. Half-brother to 9.2f/1¼m winner Zaffonix Bay and 7f/1m winner Solar Prophet. May just be better for this first experience. Le Havre gelding; market should be most revealing on belated debut.
7th	1 7th (1) (250/1 -213%) Desert Guest		250 250/1(-213%)																															(1) Desert Guest 250/1, Some encouragement on first of 2 starts in bumpers, but made no impression when last of 10 in maiden (40/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on Flat debut 6 days ago. One for further down the line. Looked a non-stayer in two bumpers but fared no better in a Wolverhampton maiden.
8th	8 8th (8) (80/1 -21%) Malay Massaman		80 80/1(-21%)																															(8) Malay Massaman 80/1, Didn't offer a great deal of promise first time up when 15 lengths fifth of 13 in novice (100/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 29 days ago. Looks one for the longer term. Beaten over 15l into fifth of 13 on his Chelmsford debut; should improve.
9th	4 9th (4) (250/1 -150%) Ancient State		250 250/1(-150%)																															(4) Ancient State 250/1, Went with little promise on debut when last of 12 in novice (80/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 3 weeks ago. Looks to be up against it. Last of 12 on his Wolverhampton debut three weeks ago; best watched for now.
10th	2 10th (2) (150/1 -127%) Opera King		150 150/1(-127%)																															(2) Opera King 150/1, Fair form in bumpers but went the wrong way over hurdles last year, well-beaten eighth of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (16f, soft, 9/2) 22 days ago. First run on Flat having left Nigel Twiston-Davies (cheekpieces retained from hurdling). Ability in bumpers/hurdles for Nigel Twiston-Davies but lost his way; stable/Flat debut.

CITY OF GOD, who is from the same family as 1000 Guineas and Irish/Yorkshire Oaks winner Blue Bunting, should be wiser after running green over 7f on his debut at Wolverhampton last month. The son of Kodiac got better the further he went on that occasion and stepping up to a mile can be beneficial here. War Hawk is feared most from the rest with experience. Any support in the betting for well-bred debutants Express Train and Tapis Rouge would be highly noteworthy.

CITY OF GOD was green on debut but shaped encouragingly when fourth in a Wolverhampton novice 3 weeks ago, finishing well, and he can build on that effort to open his account. War Hawk has also looked in need of the experience in his 2 starts so far and is respected given the promise he showed first-time up, while newcomer Express Train is one to note.

The choice is CITY OF GOD who showed plenty of promise when fourth on his Wolverhampton debut. That form has already received a boost.

Twelve runs since last win in 2024. 7/4, 2¾ lengths fourth of 7 to Catch The Paddy in handicap at this course (8f) 42 days ago. Enters calculations. Dual C&D winner didn't land a blow behind Catch The Paddy on latest; can't be ruled out.
3	7 3rd (7) (6/1 +40%) Clarita		6 6/1(+40%)																															(7) Clarita 6/1, Fairly useful filly. C&D winner. Latest win here in November. Respectable third of 13 in handicap at this C&D (9/2) 7 days ago. Couldn't rule out. C&D winner held off this 8lb higher mark twice since though and has a bit to find now.
4	2 4th (2) (8/1 -23%) Final Voyage		8 8/1(-23%)																															(2) Final Voyage 8/1, Useful gelding. Course winner. Creditable 3 lengths fourth of 9 to San Andreas in handicap at this course (10.7f, 8/1) 28 days ago, met some trouble. Significantly back down in trip. Waiting tactics overdone when upped in trip here on latest behind San Andreas, more likely.
5th	1 5th (1) (10/1 -233%) San Andreas		10 10/1(-233%)																															(1) San Andreas 10/1, Useful gelding. 3-time C&D winner. 5/1, improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at this course (10.7f) 28 days ago, keeping on well. Cheekpieces back on and he has to enter the reckoning in current form. Back to form over longer trips of late; 11lb rise makes this tough though.
6th	6 6th (6) (9/1 -29%) Dontspoilasale		9 9/1(-29%)																															(6) Dontspoilasale 9/1, Fairly useful gelding. Course winner. Latest win here in November. 16/1, respectable third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 30 days ago, not knocked about. Shortlist material. Finished to good effect on first attempt at this trip on latest; respected.
7th	4 7th (4) (10/3 +26%) Catch The Paddy		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(4) Catch The Paddy 10/3, Fairly useful gelding. Course winner. Latest win here in December. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D 30 days ago. Should go close, provided he doesn't go off quite so hard this time. Front-runner faded quite tamely over C&D latest, but previous 1m win puts him in the mix.
8th	5 8th (5) (66/1 -100%) Tarsus		66 66/1(-100%)																															(5) Tarsus 66/1, Fairly useful gelding. 11¾ lengths twelfth of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race (50/1) at Navan (5.8f, good to soft). Off 8 months ahead of this debut for new yard and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Dual sprint winner here last winter; upped in trip on return and may just need this.

A competitive affair in which FINAL VOYAGE may regain the winning thread for trainer Johnny Murtagh. A winner over a mile here last February, the gelding has the pace to cope with dropping back a furlong. Young apprentice Patrick McGettigan looks good value for his 7lb claim in a race of this nature. The veteran San Andreas has been a revelation of late, winning on his latest two starts. Despite creeping back up the handicap, the nine-year-old could still have more to offer off a mark of 99. Catch The Paddy is likely to make a bold bid from the front once again under James Ryan. It would be a mistake to allow Patrick McKenna's gelding too much leeway.

The vote goes to CATCH THE PADDY, who probably went off a shade too hard when fading into fourth over C&D last month. He had Hightimeyouwon, who rates the main danger, back in fourth when scoring over a mile here on his penultimate start and a reproduction of that would give him every chance. Dontspoilasale is third choice ahead of the hat-trick seeking San Andreas.

Hard to rule out any but a chance is taken on FINAL VOYAGE, ridden to stay the longer trip last time when not at his best

2	1 2nd (1) (11/4 -10%) Miggy Magic		2.75 11/4(-10%)																															(1) Miggy Magic 11/4, 10/1 and blinkered for 1st time, first run since leaving Gay Kelleway when good third of 11 in handicap at this course (6.1f) 19 days ago. He's well bred and looks up to winning races for his new stable. Respected down in trip. Took a firm grip when third over 6f here last time; dropping in distance could work.

4	3 4th (3) (25/1 -56%) Havechatma		25 25/1(-56%)																															(3) Havechatma 25/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Last of 11 in handicap (22/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 27 days ago. Returning here can only be a good thing but has a bit to prove at this level off this mark.
5th	6 5th (6) (4/1 -167%) Beaumadier		4 4/1(-167%)																															(6) Beaumadier 4/1, Off 7 months/first run since leaving Joe Conlon and gambled-on 7/2, won 10-runner handicap at Newcastle (5f) 7 days ago, well on top finish. Got to be of interest again under a penalty. Won well last week; penalised in a higher grade but may have turned a corner.
6th	2 6th (2) (11/4 +31%) Toptime		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(2) Toptime 11/4, C&D winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year. Latest win here in December. 10/1, below form fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (6.1f) 19 days ago. Player back over 5f. Did it easily over 5f here just before Christmas and went off a bit hot over 6f next time.

The form of BEAUMADIER's Newcastle success over 5f last week has a solid look and the five-year-old appeals strongly now he has proven that reverting to sprinting can return a dividend. Given the son of Kuroshio is 1lb well-in under a penalty, this slight step up in class is a logical move if the quick turnaround doesn't catch him out. A three-time course winner, Toptime seems to raise his game at this venue and is feared most on that basis. The less exposed Miggy Magic completes the shortlist.

MIGGY MAGIC is bred to be a useful sprinter and could open his account having made a promising start for his new yard here 3 weeks ago. Beaumadier, who landed a gamble for his new stable at Newcastle last week, is the obvious danger under a penalty.

It was an encouraging first run for this yard by MIGGY MAGIC here 19 days ago and this sharper test could work for him.

Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 7/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 11 days ago. Something to find on form. Did not run to her best at Wolverhampton latest; can get into the frame on her best form.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/1 +18%) Little Keilee		9 9/1(+18%)																															(6) Little Keilee 9/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 11/1) 58 days ago. Modest strike rate but she's certainly capable of taking a hand in the finish.

Significantly back down in trip. Drops back to this trip after a good effort over 1m4f last week; could go well.
9th	7 9th (7) (14/1 +30%) Port Louis		14 14/1(+30%)																															(7) Port Louis 14/1, Blinkered for 1st time, eleventh of 14 in handicap (20/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. No impact in four outings this winter; looks up against it at present.
10th	2 10th (2) (22/1 -267%) Sarmiento Power		22 22/1(-267%)																															(2) Sarmiento Power 22/1, Good second of 12 in handicap (evens) at Southwell (11.1f) 85 days ago, better placed than most. Significantly back down in trip on debut for new yard and needs to raise his game a touch. 200,000euros yearling picked up for just 8,000gns after leaving Roger Varian; market watch.

With the Pat Murphy yard firing on all cylinders at present, FREE SOLO can provide another winner for the popular Kilkenny trainer. A winner off 75 here last January, the gelding showed that his turn was near when runner-up last week. Now down to 64 with Sam Coen able to claim an additional 7lb, it is difficult to bypass the son of Showcasing. Volatile Analyst is undoubtedly well handicapped at present but isn't the easiest to win with. Perhaps the addition of first-time blinkers will help in that regard. I'm Spartacus has been holding his form but appears better over a shorter distance.

The first-time eyeshields appeared to give FREE SOLO a lift here last week when chasing home a bang in-form rival in Cousin Shay (winner again since) and he is taken to go one better back at 7f off the same mark. Fly To Glory has to be respected in his bid for a third win in a row, while I'm Spartacus and Little Keilee both make each-way appeal.

Pat Murphy's FREE SOLO came back to form when runner-up over 1m last time and may go one better

Having hit the frame for the fourth consecutive time when finishing third in a class 2 event at Lingfield on Monday, compensation could be on the cards for EXISTENT. A drop into class 4 company looks a good move for Stuart Williams' gelding and he's fancied to repel chief threat G'day Mate. The Havana Grey gelding was lit up by the cheekpieces on his fourth-placed finish over 6f at the Surrey venue last month and reverting to 5f may see him in a better light. Almaty Star is also of interest on the back of a 118-day break.

G'DAY MATE made a promising return from 5 months off at Lingfield and could be set for a big run if building on that back over 5f. Rhythm N Hooves and the even-more frustrating Existent are a couple of the dangers.

He's been expensive to follow of late but this could be the day that EXISTENT comes good again. Dashing Harry may be next best.

Down in trip and he's not discounted. Not at his best in a couple of small field handicaps over further here last month.

Top-weight MIGDAM can make his class count here under excellent apprentice Nicola Burns. The Ado McGuinness-trained six-year-old has failed to get competitive on his most recent starts but should appreciate dropping back to a mile now. Having run well in stronger races here last winter, the gelding should benefit from this easier task. Recent C&D winner Perfect Judgement is arguably the pick of the two Stephen Thorne-trained runners. The blinkers which appeared to aid his cause on that occasion have been retained here. Mulgrave, a six-time winner here, always commands maximum respect. The faster they go, the better his chances of settling are.

COMFORT LINE has scored twice here in recent months and he encountered traffic problems at a crucial stage when a close third to Shoot To Kill over 7f here last time. He has a good chance of turning the tables on that rival on these revised terms. That said, Shoot To Kill is clearly in good heart and he should be in there pitching once more and Migdam looks dangerous having slipped to an attractive mark.

Preference is for the rock solid COMFORT LINE, as hardy as they come and has a good chance of turning tables with Shoot To Kill

MCKENNA posted his best effort to date when a staying-on fifth over 7f at Wolverhampton three weeks ago. An opening mark of 65 looks workable for George Boughey's gelding and a return to a mile could prove fruitful. Squires Treaty arrives on the back of a respectable third-placed nursery bow over C&D and the Shaman gelding is feared most racing off an unchanged mark, ahead of Brightandbeautiful.

Claims can be made for most here but it would come as a surprise if BLUE SECRET never had a bigger effort in her locker for the William Haggas stable, so she's selected to come out on top on her first crack at 1m. Tiempo Alegre hasn't been shaping at all badly and she's a threat, along with handicap-debutant McKenna. Brightandbeautiful also enters calculations, along with Mrbluesky.

The vote goes to SQUIRES TREATY who would have gone closer with a clear run when third over C&D last month.

1	6 1st (6) (4/1 +20%) Dromore Glory		4 4/1(+20%)																															(6) Dromore Glory 4/1, Tenth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good to firm, 7/1). Off 7 months and significantly back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Best watched after seven months off unless the market says otherwise.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/2 +42%) Jawhary		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(4) Jawhary 7/2, One win from 26 Flat runs. Twenty two runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (10.7f, 6/1) 3 days ago. Visor back on. Each-way chance. Not beaten far over 1m2f here on Tuesday, although he is probably better over that trip.
3	10 3rd (10) (9/1 +10%) Fine Print		9 9/1(+10%)																															(10) Fine Print 9/1, 12/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D 56 days ago, barely adequate test. Others more persuasive. Disappointing on his AW debut in November and again the following week; on a fair mark.
4	9 4th (9) (5/1 -82%) Imperial Miss		5 5/1(-82%)																															(9) Imperial Miss 5/1, Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (7/1) 28 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Has good chance on form. Mixed messages on her last two runs over how well she gets this trip but respected.
5th	8 5th (8) (80/1 +20%) Zentopia		80 80/1(+20%)																															(8) Zentopia 80/1, 200/1, thirteenth of 18 in novice hurdle at Thurles (16.1f, good) 27 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Poor on last Flat outing. Very modest Flat performer and the same so far over hurdles; makes no appeal.
6th	1 6th (1) (5/1 +64%) Wrecking Ball Paul		5 5/1(+64%)																															(1) Wrecking Ball Paul 5/1, Course winner. Tenth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f, 66/1) 30 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Out of form at the moment despite coming down the handicap; others preferred.
7th	3 7th (3) (50/1 -257%) Ravelli		50 50/1(-257%)																															(3) Ravelli 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Sixth of 12 in maiden (200/1) at this course (10.7f) 7 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Makes handicap debut. Difficult ask. Some late headway in a 1m2f maiden here last week; could get into the frame.
8th	7 8th (7) (25/1 -79%) Muhalhel		25 25/1(-79%)																															(7) Muhalhel 25/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 6/1) 11 days ago and he's opposable. Not beaten far in a 1m2f handicap here last month but needs a bit more.
9th	2 9th (2) (13/2 +35%) Arthur Rose		6.5 13/2(+35%)																															(2) Arthur Rose 13/2, 16/1, first run since leaving Clive Cox when excellent fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (8f) 7 days ago, never nearer. Significantly up in trip. Takes a considerable step up in trip here but she is in very shrewd hands.
10th	5 10th (5) (5/1 +17%) Navy Beach		5 5/1(+17%)																															(5) Navy Beach 5/1, First run since leaving Gerard Keane when ninth of 16 in novice hurdle at Cork (16.9f, good, 125/1). Off 6 months ahead of this first run since rejoining Tony Martin. Hood on 1st time and tongue strap refitted. Returns here after six months off and best watched, but not discounted.

IMPERIAL MISS has shaped well enough in similar races this winter to suggest she can open her account in this finale. Since stepping up to this trip, the daughter of Churchill has given the impression she is capable of gaining a victory. In a race where few appear to have genuine chances, she can make the most of the opportunity. The former British-trained Arthur Rose is lightly raced enough to remain of interest in what is just her second start for Mark Fahey. She is stepped up considerably in distance now. Jawhary, who was runner-up here before Christmas, has run well enough in similar races of late. He should pick one up at some stage and this isn't the strongest of contests.

None of these look particularly solid and the suggestion is IMPERIAL MISS, who has improved a touch in C&D handicaps the last twice and this represents a good opportunity for the 4-y-o to open her account. Dromore Glory was a solid second on his latest all-weather start and is preferred to Jawhary for forecast purposes.

The most intriguing is ARTHUR ROSE (nap), who came home well over 1m last week and might just be good enough over this longer trip

Eleventh of 12 in novice (100/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 21 days ago, losing place over 2f out but not knocked about. Makes handicap debut. Should have more to offer.

5th	1 5th (1) (20/1 -25%) Baileys Honeymoon		20 20/1(-25%)																															(1) Baileys Honeymoon 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden.

Given a break since. Never involved in October but previously close up in 6f handicaps on turf and Polytrack.
8th	7 8th (7) (15/8 +32%) A Fine Claret		1.875 15/8(+32%)																															(7) A Fine Claret 15/8, 15/2, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D 13 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Grey Operations, running on. Expected to be bang there again. Ready winner over C&D latest; has more to come for in-form yard off 4lb higher.
9th	12 9th (12) (25/1 0%) Lily's Symphony		25 25/1(0%)																															(12) Lily's Symphony 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, fifth of 7 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 13 days ago. Needs to find some improvement for the switch to handicaps now. Found little in qualifying events at 6f/5f; can't rule out improvement now handicapping.
10th	2 10th (2) (12/1 +0%) Wondrous Ways		12 12/1(+0%)																															(2) Wondrous Ways 12/1, Winner at Catterick (5f) and placed next 2 starts at up to 6f. Not disgraced when sixth of 10 in nursery at Thirsk (6f, good) in September Promising in sprint handicaps on turf as 2yo; AW debut; may do better this year.

Tongue strap on 1st time. More required. Might have needed the run behind A Fine Claret over C&D latest; now tongue tied.
12th	11 12th (11) (15/2 +17%) The Last Time		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(11) The Last Time 15/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Off 5 months/gelded, made more impact than previously when fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 11/5) 13 days ago. Still, he'll need to step up further if he's to play a lead role here. Modest improvement for handicap debut (5f); pedigree suggests he could do better at 6f.

The removal of headgear worked a treat for recent C&D scorer A FINE CLARET and another bold bid is forecast. Karl Burke's inmate opened his account with enough in hand to suggest that a 4lb higher mark is tolerable and a brace may beckon. Top Biller made all at Wolverhampton six days ago, but he has more on his plate here under a penalty. With that in mind, a bigger threat may emerge from Grey Operations, who finished behind the selection in second last time out.

A FINE CLARET was well suited by the strong pace when opening his account over C&D 13 days ago, never far away and running on to see off the re-opposing Grey Operations by 1¼ lengths. Karl Burke's 3-y-o is fancied to confirm those placings here, with Wolverhampton-scorer Top Biller another to consider. Little Bittern is a handicap debutant to note, particularly if strong in the betting.

Things fell into place for A FINE CLARET when beating Grey Operations in good style over C&D last time and he looks the best option.

A change of tactics and an ease in grade paid dividends for CLOCH NUA, who was on target in a similar event at Newcastle earlier this month. Stella Barclay's charge is once again weighted to go well so, kept to the same level, it would come as no surprise were he able to follow up. That said, Charlatan landed a C&D handicap on Tuesday and he must be taken very seriously along with Alyara, who looks certain to benefit from returning to a mile.

CHARLATAN confirmed the promise of his previous run when recording a cosy success over this C&D on Tuesday and he looks the one to beat on these terms. Cloch Nua did well to score at Newcastle 2 weeks ago and is the obvious threat with Calcutta Dream best of the others.

Tuesday's C&D winner CHARLATAN has to concede weight all round but he's right back on song and could outclass these.

Edged out by an infrequent winner in a 1m classified at Newcastle last week.

Good second of 9 in minor event at Chelmsford City (8f, 10/1) 8 days ago. Hasn't had many starts for current yard and one to be interested in. Second in a Chelmsford classified (1m) despite going off at a fair lick.

C&D winner. 80/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 15 days ago. Capable at this level but not one to rely on.

7th	1 7th (1) (13/2 -8%) Annalee Lass		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(1) Annalee Lass 13/2, Modest mare. Good fifth of 9 in minor event (16/1) at Newcastle (8f) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Can give a good account. A dual winner and she's in better form than her recent figures may imply.

10th	10 10th (10) (22/1 -57%) Star Of St James		22 22/1(-57%)																															(10) Star Of St James 22/1, Modest gelding. 3-time C&D winner. 33/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 27 days ago. Three of his seven wins have been here but recent efforts do not bode well; opposable.

The vote goes to JUST TYPICAL, who finished a creditable second at Newcastle last time out and he would not need much more to come out on top in a race of this nature. Masham Moor was slightly unfortunate not to have finished even closer over C&D last month having met trouble and he remains of interest, while others to note include Quick Away and Dash Power.

A reproduction of JUST TYPICAL's close second in a similar event at Newcastle last week would make him the one to beat. Dash Power is shaping up well for his current yard so is feared most ahead of Masham Moor.

The suggestion is MASHAM MOOR who should be heavily involved if repeating his latest close third in a handicap.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
