1	2 1st (2) (2/5 +45%) Jarrive De Mee		0.4 2/5(+45%)																															(2) Jarrive De Mee 2/5, Authorized gelding made a highly promising hurdling debut when most impressive winner of 7-runner novice at Thurles (15.9f, good) in November. Irish raider has lots more to offer and is hard to side against. Readily made all on hurdle debut at Thurles and that form has been boosted by the second.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/4 +8%) Gentleman Bill		2.75 11/4(+8%)																															(1) Gentleman Bill 11/4, Winning pointer who made it 2-3 in this sphere with an easy success in 2m novice at Doncaster 40 days ago. Has more to come and looks a likely player. 3-4 under rules and this 3m point winner is open to further improvement now up in trip.
3	4 3rd (4) (40/1 -186%) The Clonmel Kid		40 40/1(-186%)																															(4) The Clonmel Kid 40/1, 13/2, second of 10 in bumper at Newcastle 39 days ago. Much respected on his hurdles debut. Fair second on last month's bumper debut but faces a tough task against the top two today.
4	5 4th (5) (7/1 +50%) Tyson Magoo		7 7/1(+50%)																															(5) Tyson Magoo 7/1, Third in an Irish point and took a step forward from hurdling debut when third in 7-runner novice over C&D 36 days ago. Likely to progress further. Possibilities. Fair third over C&D last month but a chunk of improvement is needed to threaten today.
5th	7 5th (7) (250/1 -100%) Intertwine		250 250/1(-100%)																															(7) Intertwine 250/1, Poor hurdler. 150/1, first run since leaving Declan Queally when patiently-ridden tenth of 14 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) 33 days ago. Back up in trip. May do better. Runner-up in Punchestown bumper in 2023 but unable to replicate that form over hurdles.
6th	6 6th (6) (300/1 -200%) Fancy Nancy Pants		300 300/1(-200%)																															(6) Fancy Nancy Pants 300/1, Well held in 2 bumpers and on Sedgefield hurdling debut. Significantly more is required. Well beaten on all four starts, over hurdles the last twice.
7th	3 7th (3) (300/1 -100%) Arnie		300 300/1(-100%)																															(3) Arnie 300/1, Malinas gelding was placed in a point but offered little in a Sedgefield bumper on his Rules debut 26 days ago. Third on debut in British maiden point last May but down the field on both rules runs.

Having justified cramped odds on his hurdles bow at Thurles in November, JARRIVE DE MEE makes plenty of appeal on his follow-up bid. Willie Mullins' gelding had previously scored over 3m between the flags, so this distance is unlikely to prevent another bold display. The progressive Gentleman Bill had little difficulty when scoring on his handicap debut at Doncaster last month and the seven-year-old isn't taken lightly, despite having to concede 5lb to the selection. The Clonmel Kid may fare best of the remainder.

Willie Mullins' JARRIVE DE MEE created an excellent impression when making a winning hurdles debut at Thurles and is impossible to side against with considerably more to come in all likelihood. Gentleman Bill also has better days ahead of him and appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of C&D third Tyson Magoo and newcomer The Clonmel Kid.

Willie Mullins sends his first runner to Catterick and JARRIVE DE MEE earns the vote, having impressed at Thurles in November.

1	7 1st (7) (6/1 +82%) Antiquity		6 6/1(+82%)																															(7) Antiquity 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 8 in novice at Southwell (8.1f) 39 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Hard to fancy. Looks a likely improver now handicapping but his opening mark demands such progress.
2	10 2nd (10) (11/2 +78%) Jonny Garlic		5.5 11/2(+78%)																															(10) Jonny Garlic 11/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, ninth of 11 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good). Off 162 days. First run for yard after leaving Karl Burke with work to do now handicapping. Modest form in three 6f runs for K Burke as a 2yo; sold 1,000gns in October; best watched.
3	4 3rd (4) (16/1 -78%) Herkeios		16 16/1(-78%)																															(4) Herkeios 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, fair fifth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 13/2) 11 days ago. Possibilities. Only midfield on his recent handicap debut; up in trip and improvement is required.
4	2 4th (2) (12/1 -33%) Made The Cut		12 12/1(-33%)																															(2) Made The Cut 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, creditable seventh of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 13 days ago, never nearer. Cheekpieces on 1st time and needs considering. Late headway from a poor position at Chelmsford last time; headgear now added; unexposed.
5th	12 5th (12) (10/3 -67%) Freak Encounter		3.333333 10/3(-67%)																															(12) Freak Encounter 10/3, Blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (AW, 4/1) 9 days ago, having run of race. Carries penalty. Can go well again. Made all in a C&D h'cap last week (blinkered first time); this looks tougher under penalty.
6th	5 6th (5) (15/2 -67%) Specified		7.5 15/2(-67%)																															(5) Specified 15/2, Still a maiden but not seen to best effect when eighth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 13 days ago, not enjoying a clear run. Player off a handy-looking mark. Ran okay upped to a mile last time but she'll need more if she is to break her duck.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -14%) Lady Diesel		16 16/1(-14%)																															(1) Lady Diesel 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, eighth of 10 in novice at Southwell (6.1f). Off 97 days. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap debut with more needed. Steps up in trip for her handicap debut and with cheekpieces added; market to guide.
8th	8 8th (8) (16/1 +60%) Take The Boat		16 16/1(+60%)																															(8) Take The Boat 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable seventh of 13 in novice at Chelmsford City (7f, 150/1). Off 116 days. Makes handicap debut. Respected. Some promise as a 2yo but her opening mark looks tough; betting to guide.
9th	6 9th (6) (17/2 -70%) Majestic Heights		8.5 17/2(-70%)																															(6) Majestic Heights 17/2, Winner at Brighton in October. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 13 in handicap (22/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 13 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Merits consideration. Won a 7f Brighton nursery in October; two solid AW runs this winter; new headgear today.
10th	11 10th (11) (10/1 +29%) Sandhill Dancer		10 10/1(+29%)																															(11) Sandhill Dancer 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, seventh of 11 in novice at Kempton (7f) 42 days ago, not knocked about. Makes handicap debut. Potential improver. Shaped with some promise on third outing; could take a big step forward now handicapping.
11th	3 11th (3) (7/1 +22%) Rumseg		7 7/1(+22%)																															(3) Rumseg 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good eighth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Chelmsford City (8f) 13 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. No forlorn hope. Improvement is required but the addition of blinkers could prompt it.

FREAK ENCOUNTER was said to have benefitted from the application of first-time blinkers (retained) when on target over C&D earlier this month and, should they have a similar effect in this race, a 6lb penalty may not inconvenience him. Rumseg was supported ahead of his handicap debut last time out but he failed to deliver. Eased 2lb and with blinkers applied for the first time, it could be a different story, while Majestic Heights is another to consider.

SPECIFIED didn't enjoy the rub of the green when eighth at Chelmsford last time out and can capitalise on a lenient mark now to get off the mark. Majestic Heights is feared most on the back of a good third in the same race, with C&D winner Freak Encounter, Made The Cut and Rumseg also in the mix.

A fiendish puzzle. MADE THE CUT stayed on from a poor position at Chelmsford and can reverse those placings with Majestic Heights.

1	8 1st (8) (10/3 +52%) Emotional Roller		3.333333 10/3(+52%)																															(8) Emotional Roller 10/3, Solid second over hurdles at Carlisle in November and backed that up when again finding just one too good in a Wetherby handicap (19.4f, heavy) on chase debut. However, consistency isn't his forte and he's not run to the same level either start since. Twice 2nd (once chase debut) but both subsequent runs over fences have been disappointing.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/2 +13%) Hobb's Delight		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(4) Hobb's Delight 7/2, Progressive over hurdles and only just touched off on chase debut at Plumpton (25.7f) in October. Bad mistake didn't help his cause next time but back on track when fourth at Wincanton (25.1f) 5 weeks ago. Cheekpieces go on now and of interested re-united with James Bowen. Pipped on chase debut; excused next start and ran respectably latest; first-time headgear.
3	2 3rd (2) (4/1 +43%) Super Citizen		4 4/1(+43%)																															(2) Super Citizen 4/1, Winning start for this yard in a Kelso hunter (23.4f, heavy) 12 months ago and largely consistent in defeat since, staying on latter stages when third in a C&D handicap chase 25 days ago. Fancied to go well again from 2 lb lower mark. Ran creditably on his last two outings (C&D latest) and is in serious calculations.
4	3 4th (3) (10/1 -82%) Big Bee Hive		10 10/1(-82%)																															(3) Big Bee Hive 10/1, Won at Southwell and Cartmel in the spring and essentially in better heart than recent form figures suggest, a couple of late errors finishing him off when pulled up back at Southwell (24.3f) 3 weeks ago. Certainly not one to write off. Showed his form once (three runs ago) this autumn/winter; big shout if back to his best.
5th	11 5th (11) (25/1 -39%) Ideal De Romay		25 25/1(-39%)																															(11) Ideal De Romay 25/1, Irish point winner who is winless under Rules but one of better efforts when second of 7 in handicap chase at Newcastle (23.4f) in December. Pulled up back over hurdles at Ayr (21.4f) 16 days ago, and this not easy once more from out of the weights. 0-15 under rules; second at Newcastle before pulled up over hurdles latest; 7lb wrong.
6th	1 6th (1) (12/1 -20%) Tedwin Hills		12 12/1(-20%)																															(1) Tedwin Hills 12/1, Opened his account at Huntingdon (24f) in October 2023 before almost a year off the track after his next outing. Folded rather tamely on his comeback/stable debut at Uttoxeter this October but given time and he's not one to write off. Led until a bad mistake three out at Uttoxeter last time and reportedly had a leg wound.
7th	10 7th (10) (28/1 -40%) Wexford Park		28 28/1(-40%)																															(10) Wexford Park 28/1, Placed both starts in points but little show under Rules so far, never travelling/jumping with fluency after 8 months off when pulled up in handicap chase at Southwell (24.3f, heavy) 21 days ago. Plenty to prove with cheekpieces fitted. Accomplished little in six runs under rules, pulled up in both his chases; cheekpieces now.
8th	6 8th (6) (18/1 -157%) Aazza		18 18/1(-157%)																															(6) Aazza 18/1, Twice a winner over hurdles for Rose Dobbin and better for return/stable debut effort equipped with cheekpieces when third of 7 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (23.8f) in November. Step back up in trip ought to suit returned to larger obstacles. Went the wrong way over fences in 2022; arrested slide over hurdles in cheekpieces latest.
9th	5 9th (5) (14/1 +30%) Benefit Ben		14 14/1(+30%)																															(5) Benefit Ben 14/1, Maiden Irish pointer who showed ability in maiden/novice hurdles last winter but hasn't really kicked on, only fourth despite jumping adequately on chasing debut at Musselburgh last time. Others make more appeal. 0-5 in points and 0-6 under rules, well below form in his three handicaps; new trip.
10th	7 10th (7) (22/1 -300%) Batman For Ever		22 22/1(-300%)																															(7) Batman For Ever 22/1, Fair winning hurdler/chaser at up to 2½m in France in 2021. Belatedly confirmed he still has something to offer on third start for new yard when third of 13 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (3m) in June and the betting can prove a useful guide back from 7 months off. Uttoxeter third (3m, good) last June gives him a place chance if he's okay after the break.
9	9 |PU| (9) (13/2 +46%) Don Brocco		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(9) Don Brocco 13/2, Poor maiden handicap chaser who wasn't disgraced when fifth of 13 at Carlisle (26.2f, soft) in December. Similar form when sixth in a big-field handicap hurdle at Hexham 6 weeks ago and likely he'll come up short for win purposes returned to this sphere. Cheekpieces/tongue tie applied. 0-11 over fences; not disgraced on latest start and has another career-low mark this time.

Batman For Ever was a respectable third at Uttoxeter in June and a similar performance on his reappearance should see him in the thick of the action. However, HOBB'S DELIGHT is a more solid proposition after last month's fourth at Wincanton and a 2lb drop in the ratings may prove fruitful for Neil Mulholland's inmate. Fellow in-form rival Super Citizen should also make his presence felt.

HOBB'S DELIGHT showed he's got a race of this nature within reach when just touched off at Plumpton 3 starts ago and, arriving having performed creditably when fourth at Wincanton 5 weeks ago, he rates one of the likelier types with cheekpieces fitted for the first time. Tedwin Hills if bouncing back and Super Citizen are others to consider, with Aazza another to note on her second stint chasing.

The top two options in what looks a weak race are probably SUPER CITIZEN and Hobb's Delight.

1	7 1st (7) (4/1 +67%) Raqraaq		4 4/1(+67%)																															(7) Raqraaq 4/1, C&D winner. Good third of 10 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D (AW) 31 days ago, never nearer. Can give a good account. Hard to win with but conditions suit and he ran a solid race here last month.
2	1 2nd (1) (18/1 -80%) Claxton Bay		18 18/1(-80%)																															(1) Claxton Bay 18/1, Winner at Beverley in September. 8/1, creditable fourth of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 6 days ago. Considered. Not beaten far into 4th at Chelmsford last week; not the only pace influence in the field.
3	10 3rd (10) (3/1 -85%) Charlatan		3 3/1(-85%)																															(10) Charlatan 3/1, C&D winner scored cosily at Southwell in January before posting a good second of 8 in minor event there (8.1f) 5 days ago. Big shout under a 5 lb penalty. Found little off the bridle when 2nd at Southwell last week; still likely to run his race.
4	3 4th (3) (13/2 +7%) Kondratiev Wave		6.5 13/2(+7%)																															(3) Kondratiev Wave 13/2, C&D winner. Four wins from 16 runs last year. Latest win at Brighton in October. 6/1, good second of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, AW) 19 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Had a good 2024 but he has been beaten off this mark on his last three starts.
5th	2 5th (2) (4/1 +0%) Overnight Oats		4 4/1(+0%)																															(2) Overnight Oats 4/1, C&D winner. Four wins from 16 runs last year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 9/4, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, AW) 19 days ago, running on. In the mix. Beaten favourite the last twice but still in form; should make another bold bid.
6th	8 6th (8) (7/1 +56%) Delta Legend		7 7/1(+56%)																															(8) Delta Legend 7/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Last of 10 in handicap (20/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 11 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Took this 12 months ago so still needs considering. Won twice over C&D last year; campaigned from 1m2f-1m6f since August; can now do better.
7th	5 7th (5) (6/1 +40%) Devasboy		6 6/1(+40%)																															(5) Devasboy 6/1, Twenty eight runs since last win in 2022. 11/2, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 19 days ago. Can make presence felt at these weights if back on his A-game. Has conditions to suit and is on a reduced mark but his losing run stands at 28.
8th	6 8th (6) (80/1 -100%) First Greyed		80 80/1(-100%)																															(6) First Greyed 80/1, First run since leaving Michael Dods when eighth of 11 in handicap (50/1) at Bath (8f, soft) 83 days ago. Makes polytrack debut with more required. Seen only once since October 2023 and that was a well-beaten eighth at Bath 12 weeks ago.
9th	9 9th (9) (50/1 +0%) Takeover Target		50 50/1(+0%)																															(9) Takeover Target 50/1, Blinkered for 1st time, first run since leaving Tom Dascombe when last of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 40/1). Off 119 days. Visor back on. Uphill task. Unconvincing record and he was well beaten on his stable debut four months ago.

Makes polytrack debut. First run for yard after leaving Richard Fahey. Very hard to make a case for. Struggled in handicaps for Richard Fahey last year; makes stable debut off low mark; risky.

Charlatan cruised to the front at Southwell on Friday but found little off the bridle, ultimately finishing second when attempting to follow up on his recent success at the same venue. The gelding was said to have ran flat having raced three days prior so it must be of some concern that he turns out quickly once more, and it is KONDRATIEV WAVE that gets the nod. Tony Carroll's eight-year-old kept on for second over 7f last time but with a return to the mile likely to suit, he can go one place better. Overnight Oats is another to consider.

CHARLATAN rates the pick of the weights under a 5 lb penalty for his cosy Southwell victory so looks the way to go at the chief expense of in-form duo Overnight Oats and Kondratiev Wave, who can chase home David Simcock's 5-y-o in that order.

There are several possibles but DELTA LEGEND may benefit from the return to a mile and he gets the tentative vote.

Looks capable of winning again. Did it in tidy style at Kelso (2m2f, good to soft) latest and could now have more to offer.
2	6 2nd (6) (22/1 -57%) Final Edgar		22 22/1(-57%)																															(6) Final Edgar 22/1, Hasn't taken to chasing but interesting from a reduced mark back over hurdles. Chasing lately did not go so well; last season makes him a big player back in this sphere.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/1 +17%) Diamond Koda		5 5/1(+17%)																															(1) Diamond Koda 5/1, Fairly useful form when runner-up all 3 starts in bumpers and yet to finish outside placings on all completed starts over hurdles, conceding first run in steadily-run race at Market Rasen (16.6f) latterly. Should remain competitive back in a handicap. Placed in all completed starts (bumpers and hurdle races); needs extra and back up in trip.
4	5 4th (5) (11/1 -22%) My Friend Yeats		11 11/1(-22%)																															(5) My Friend Yeats 11/1, Back on track in first-time cheekpieces and tongue strap when second of 7 in C&D handicap (good) 25 days ago, just failing.

5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 -25%) Ridin Solo		10 10/1(-25%)																															(4) Ridin Solo 10/1, Point winner who has shown fair form over hurdles, placed on 5 of 6 starts, latterly in 8-runner maiden at Sedgefield (19.8f, soft). Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Consistent in his six hurdle races; a bit extra is needed and headgear is given a call-up.
6th	12 6th (12) (22/1 +12%) Evenwood Sonofagun		22 22/1(+12%)																															(12) Evenwood Sonofagun 22/1, Long-standing maiden but better signs for new yard when second of 7 at Musselburgh (24f) in November and again ran with credit when fifth of 12 at same venue 44 days ago. No forlorn hope. Player on best efforts but five 2nds over hurdles (22 attempts) and still no won.
7th	3 7th (3) (11/1 -57%) Achnamara		11 11/1(-57%)																															(3) Achnamara 11/1, Fair handicapper on Flat and belatedly ran to similar level over hurdles when runner-up at Sedgefield (19.8f) in November. Below-par next time, but left that behind when scoring easily back at Sedgefield on Boxing Day. Good claims if turning up in a similar mood. Inconsistent but much his best hurdles form when winning easily last time (2m4f); up 13lb.
8th	9 8th (9) (4/1 +60%) Aquitaine Boy		4 4/1(+60%)																															(9) Aquitaine Boy 4/1, Belied odds of 40/1 back from nearly 3 years off when making a winning start for this yard in a 15.8f novice at Southwell (good) in May and got back on the up when landing 10-runner handicap at Newcastle (20.3f) last week, just holding on.

9th	10 9th (10) (16/1 -14%) Walk In The Valley		16 16/1(-14%)																															(10) Walk In The Valley 16/1, Not disgraced both starts in points in spring 2023 and showed a bit more than previously over hurdles when third of 5 on handicap debut here (15.7f) 3 weeks ago. Bred to be suited by the step up in trip and could have further improvement in him. Needs to build upon his 3rd on handicap debut but bred to stay and is one to consider.
11	11 |F| (11) (25/1 -233%) Love True		25 25/1(-233%)																															(11) Love True 25/1, Fairly useful Flat winner at up to 13f in France. Stepped up on reappearance when second of 5 at Market Rasen (16.6f, soft) last month (winner got first run). Still relatively lightly raced in this sphere and should go well again. Looked well worth a go over this longer trip last time and now has her tongue tied.
10th	8 10th (8) (28/1 -133%) Tommy Johnson		28 28/1(-133%)																															(8) Tommy Johnson 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden who showed promise on 3 of 4 starts last season, including when fifth in 9-runner handicap at Newcastle when last seen a year ago. May yet do better. 2nd on debut; three lesser efforts have followed, latest on handicap debut 382 days ago.

Merits consideration off same mark. Both wins were in 2021; back to some form on latest outing and last winter's reads well.

Achnamara scored readily over a similar trip at Sedgefield on Boxing Day but a 13lb higher mark looks harsh on the face value of what he actually achieved. With that in mind, fellow last-time-out winner KOMEDY KICKS shades the vote after winning a deeper race at Kelso most recently. A 5lb higher mark looks manageable for the Dan Skelton-trained mare, who may find further improvement over this longer trip. Diamond Koda and My Friend Yeats are other solid each-way contenders.

KOMEDY KICKS confirmed the promise of her stable debut with a last-to-first success at Kelso just over 3 weeks ago and a 5 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the follow up with further progress in the offing. Diamond Koda is proving consistent and should give another good account off top weight back in a handicap, with Kazontherazz and Final Edgar others to note.

There are possibilities almost throughout this line-up but KOMEDY KICKS may well have had more in the tank when she won last time.

1	4 1st (4) (5/2 +55%) Whenthedealinsdone		2.5 5/2(+55%)																															(4) Whenthedealinsdone 5/2, Twenty two runs since last win in 2022. Creditable second of 10 in handicap (9/1) at this C&D (AW) 64 days ago, no match for winner. One to consider. Not the force of old but handicapped accordingly and was runner-up over C&D when last seen.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +22%) Tyger Bay		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(1) Tyger Bay 7/2, 3-time C&D winner. Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap (11/2) at Kempton (6f) 14 days ago. In the picture. Has conditions to suit, on a good mark and looks set for another big run.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 +44%) Harb		5 5/1(+44%)																															(6) Harb 5/1, Course winner. Latest win here in November. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (11/1) at this course (5f, AW) 19 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. Lots of ability and tactically versatile; should have a good run in him.
4	5 4th (5) (10/3 -67%) Lequinto		3.333333 10/3(-67%)																															(5) Lequinto 10/3, Thirteen runs since last win in 2023 but posted a good second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 16 days ago, conceding first run to the winner. Expected to be bang there. Traffic issues the last twice but he ran well on each occasion; handicapped to go well.
5th	7 5th (7) (14/1 -75%) Sisters In The Sky		14 14/1(-75%)																															(7) Sisters In The Sky 14/1, Landed 10-runner handicap at this C&D (AW, 5/1) 31 days ago. Can give another good account. Got up close home here last month but in a lowly 0-55 handicap; this demands more.
6th	3 6th (3) (16/1 -45%) Master Dandy		16 16/1(-45%)																															(3) Master Dandy 16/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in September. Below form eighth of 13 in handicap (7/1) at Chelmsford City (7f). Off 125 days. First run for yard after leaving James Fanshawe. Something to find on form. Two wins for J Fanshawe, including C&D; not fully exposed; respected on stable debut.
2	2 |DQ| (2) (15/2 -36%) Hierarchy		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(2) Hierarchy 15/2, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/1, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 14 days ago. Not ruled out. Lots of ability but tends to get going too late; not sure to get a strong pace to aim at.

LEQUINTO found himself too far back at Wolverhampton before being denied a clear run recently, but his case is as strong as any here. Drawn low and with Jack Doughty taking off a handy 3lb once again, he can make amends. Master Dandy didn't see out 7f at Chelmsford when last seen in September but a drop in trip will suit, and Hierarchy is another that could go well.

LEQUINTO signalled he is ready to regain the winning thread when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time so gets the vote ahead of three-time C&D scorer Tyger Bay. In-form pair Whenthedealinsdone and Hierarchy both need factoring in too.

With no obvious pace on show, this looks a race to treat with a degree of caution. TYGER BAY is tentatively preferred to Lequinto.

1	6 1st (6) (20/1 -25%) Bravethewaves		20 20/1(-25%)																															(6) Bravethewaves 20/1, Maiden hurdler but running well (in fourth) when fell 2 out in handicap chase at Wetherby (19.4f, soft) on his debut over fences 27 days ago. Possibilities. On a reduced mark but has struggled after absence, including on chase debut latest.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/2 +22%) Mr Mahler		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(5) Mr Mahler 7/2, Points runner-up who shaped encouragingly when fourth of 6 in handicap chase here (15.7f, good) on his debut over fences 25 days ago, staying on late. Open to improvement back over further. Likely player. Ran okay on last month's chase debut here; can improve if jumping more fluently.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/2 +10%) Just Gino		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(3) Just Gino 9/2, Tongue tied/cheekpieces on for 1st time when an improved second of 4 in handicap chase over C&D (good to soft) 21 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up once more. Point winner who ran best race yet under rules when 1l second of four over C&D 3 weeks ago.
4	9 4th (9) (9/1 +44%) Eric Carmen		9 9/1(+44%)																															(9) Eric Carmen 9/1, Unreliable individual who was pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (17.2f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Cheekpieces go back on now with work to do. Some fair form this season but pulled up last time and has a poor strike-rate.
5th	4 5th (4) (3/1 +25%) Get A Superstar		3 3/1(+25%)																															(4) Get A Superstar 3/1, Arrives in good nick, coming in third of 8 in handicap over C&D on his debut over fences 25 days ago. Not taken lightly off a 2 lb lower mark. Third over C&D on last month's chase debut; another 2lb lower today; could be in the mix.
6th	8 6th (8) (12/1 +33%) You Say Its Over		12 12/1(+33%)																															(8) You Say Its Over 12/1, Still looking for first success but runner-up 4 times last season. Little to shout about this term so needs this switch to fences to spark major improvement. On a handy mark on best hurdle form but below par this season and now 0-17.
7th	10 7th (10) (125/1 -150%) Edmond Dantes		125 125/1(-150%)																															(10) Edmond Dantes 125/1, Only seventh of 11 in handicap chase (100/1) at Carlisle (15.9f, good to soft) 64 days ago. Blinkers are reached for now. A long time since he's shown any worthwhile form; blinkers need to prompt a transformation.
8th	2 8th (2) (11/4 -10%) I'm Too Tired		2.75 11/4(-10%)																															(2) I'm Too Tired 11/4, Got off the mark in this sphere in 4-runner handicap chase (5/4) at Sedgefield (16.4f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Expected to be bang there despite a 3 lb rise. 2m win at Sedgefield on second chase start; could have more to offer now back up in trip.
9th	7 9th (7) (50/1 +0%) Comeonrita		50 50/1(+0%)																															(7) Comeonrita 50/1, Maiden hurdler who came in a well-held fourth of 6 on her yard debut in handicap hurdle at Leicester (15.5f, heavy) 48 days ago. More required now going chasing. Hint of encouragement last time but others are more compelling than this nine-race maiden.
1	1 |PU| (1) (9/1 -100%) Goodtimes Badtimes		9 9/1(-100%)																															(1) Goodtimes Badtimes 9/1, Unreliable type but he posted a good second of 8 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft) 94 days ago. Tongue strap back on and needs to back it up. Went close at Sedgefield in October and he's a key player on this first outing since.

GOODTIMES BADTIMES returned from a break with a game second-placed finish at Sedgefield in October and can go one better. Running off 1lb below his last winning mark (over hurdles), the enthusiastic 10-year-old has a live chance of coping with top-weight in this modest event. I'm Too Tired also has a proven liking for Sedgefield and is feared most nudged up 3lb after winning over the extended 2m there on Boxing Day. Just Gino and Mr Mahler complete the shortlist.

MR MAHLER made a promising start over fences when a staying-on fourth here last time out and can build on it to gain a breakthrough victory now his stamina is unlocked more. I'm Too Tired is feared most on the back of his Sedgefield success ahead of in-form pair Get A Superstar and Just Gino.

The 5yo I'M TOO TIRED (nap) won at Sedgefield last month on his second chase start and is open to further improvement in this sphere.

1	2 1st (2) (11/2 +21%) Major Major		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(2) Major Major 11/2, Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/2, 26 lengths sixth of 7 to Danehill Star in handicap at this C&D (AW) 13 days ago. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Dropped right away in the race won by Danehill Star here 13 days ago; vulnerable once more.
2	1 2nd (1) (6/4 +25%) Royal Observatory		1.5 6/4(+25%)																															(1) Royal Observatory 6/4, Winner at Chelmsford City in December. Good third of 7 to Danehill Star in handicap at this C&D (AW, 6/5) 13 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Expected to be bang there off the same mark. Beaten at short odds the last twice, looking a tricky ride here 13 days ago; e-w shout.
3	10 3rd (10) (14/1 +58%) Laurentia		14 14/1(+58%)																															(10) Laurentia 14/1, C&D winner. 33/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. One for the shortlist. Conditions suit and the quicker they go early, the better; could go well at a price.
4	8 4th (8) (16/1 -33%) Mr Trick		16 16/1(-33%)																															(8) Mr Trick 16/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 10 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 27 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. On a lowly mark and has conditions to suit; looks more appealing than many.
5th	3 5th (3) (25/1 +24%) Deep Blue		25 25/1(+24%)																															(3) Deep Blue 25/1, 28/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 11 days ago, very slowly away. Significantly back up in trip. Tough to assess at present. 0-11 and she has failed to fire in her last three starts; opposable from a wide stall.
6th	9 6th (9) (3/1 +25%) Danehill Star		3 3/1(+25%)																															(9) Danehill Star 3/1, 10/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (AW) 13 days ago, getting first run. Can go well again with headgear again sported. Broke his duck with a C&D 13 days ago (new cheekpieces); not an obvious one to follow up.
7th	4 7th (4) (11/1 -10%) Fascinating Lips		11 11/1(-10%)																															(4) Fascinating Lips 11/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Brighton (11.9f, soft, 13/2). Off 135 days. Should be well treated but last Flat win was back in July 2022; returns from 135 days off.
8th	6 8th (6) (50/1 +0%) Mapogo		50 50/1(+0%)																															(6) Mapogo 50/1, 40/1, last of 7 in handicap at this course (12f, AW) 9 days ago so needs to bounce back. Struggling for current stable, including when last of seven over 1m4f here nine days ago.
9th	12 9th (12) (33/1 +34%) Emperor Dream		33 33/1(+34%)																															(12) Emperor Dream 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Had wind op before coming in ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 32 days ago. Back down in trip. Poor form in four starts, including his handicap debut last month (1m6f); risky.
10th	7 10th (7) (8/1 -140%) Villalobos		8 8/1(-140%)																															(7) Villalobos 8/1, C&D winner who bounced back to form in a change of headgear when making all in 8-runner handicap at Kempton (8f, 25/1) 2 days ago. Back up in trip. Holds obvious claims. Back to form with front-running 1m win on Monday; there is other pace to deal with today.
11th	5 11th (5) (25/1 +24%) Sunset In Paris		25 25/1(+24%)																															(5) Sunset In Paris 25/1, 3-time C&D winner. Four wins from 11 runs last year. Latest win at Chelmsford City in August. 28/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 50 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Conditions to suit but current wellbeing is a query and he's drawn widest; new tongue-tie.
12th	11 12th (11) (150/1 0%) King's Conquest		150 150/1(0%)																															(11) King's Conquest 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Shaun Lycett when last of 10 in novice at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 250/1) 44 days ago. Significantly up in trip. He hasn't beaten a rival in five runs from 6f to 1m; new trip is not enough to tempt.

Royal Observatory could have a big say but he is far from bombproof and another slow start could be costly on this notoriously fast track. With that in mind, three-time C&D winner SUNSET IN PARIS looks worth chancing now tried in a first-time tongue-tie. Danehill Star is another must for consideration, having had Royal Observatory back in third when scoring over track and trip off 2lb lower 13 days ago.

A few with chances but ROYAL OBSERVATORY is knocking on the door and weighted to resume winning ways on the back of his recent C&D third when not seen to ideal effect. Recent Kempton scorer Villalobos rates a big threat though, with C&D victor Danehill Star also well in the mix.

Neither Laurentia nor MR TRICK are wholly reliable but a well-run race could see them leave their recent efforts behind them.

1	1 1st (1) (11/2 -57%) Bathgate		5.5 11/2(-57%)																															(1) Bathgate 11/2, Took a step forward when opening his account at Sedgefield in November and ran well when second to a handicap debutant at Doncaster (16.6f, good to soft) 40 days ago. Could be in the mix once more in his current form. A win and a good second the last twice and he could play a leading role.
2	11 2nd (11) (4/5 +68%) Far Away West		0.8 4/5(+68%)																															(11) Far Away West 4/5, Returned to form when making the frame at Stratford in September and backed that up when third at Exeter (16.7f, good) next time. Well held in seller back at Stratford on latest outing, but she's one to note on first start since leaving Daisy Hitchins. 0-12 but interesting to see how she goes in the betting on first run for Dan Skelton.
3	12 3rd (12) (9/1 +59%) Rhiannon Ring		9 9/1(+59%)																															(12) Rhiannon Ring 9/1, From a good jumping family and finished runner-up sole start in Irish points. However, she hasn't offered much under Rules to date, failing to improve for the switch to a handicap when eighth of 13 at this course (19.3f, good) in December. Point runner-up who didn't run badly here on handicap debut, but improvement is needed.
4	5 4th (5) (16/1 -33%) Onesoc		16 16/1(-33%)																															(5) Onesoc 16/1, Hurdles winner at Southwell in June 2022 and opened chase account at the fourth time of asking there (15.8f) later the same season. However, held back by his jumping on final outing and absent 21 months ahead of return over hurdles. Absent since April 2023 but stable had a couple run really well last month after layoffs.
5th	8 5th (8) (28/1 -133%) Purple Gown		28 28/1(-133%)																															(8) Purple Gown 28/1, Isn't straightforward but she won on the Flat last summer and encouragement on first 2 starts back hurdling this season, including when fourth at Newcastle (16.9f, good) in October. Wasn't ideally placed at Leicester last time so she's not ruled out. Below best last time but ran well when 4th at Newcastle previously; not ruled out each-way.
6th	3 6th (3) (12/1 -50%) Looking Splendid		12 12/1(-50%)																															(3) Looking Splendid 12/1, Remains a maiden but has been shown more in handicaps on his last 3 starts, running creditably when fifth of 9 at Wetherby (19.7f, soft) on Boxing Day. Can give another good account as he drops in trip. 0-10 but recent form has been encouraging and he's a possible contender.
7th	9 7th (9) (20/1 -25%) Belle Na Bann		20 20/1(-25%)																															(9) Belle Na Bann 20/1, Successful at Newcastle in December 2023 before following up over C&D. Form has been in and out since, but one of better races when bumping into an improver back at this C&D (good to soft) 3 weeks ago. Task is now to build on latest effort. Step back in right direction when second of five over C&D but was no match for winner.
8th	13 8th (13) (40/1 -21%) Inoue		40 40/1(-21%)																															(13) Inoue 40/1, Down the field both starts in bumpers and has fared little better over hurdles, well held when brought down after the last in handicap at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft) in November. Looks to be up against it. Has shown very little worthwhile form in his seven-race career and is 8lb out of the h'cap.
9th	2 9th (2) (16/1 -220%) Sea Legend		16 16/1(-220%)																															(2) Sea Legend 16/1, Fairly useful on Flat and in the frame both starts over hurdles, having a wind op prior to finishing a remote second at Musselburgh (15.6f, good to soft) last time (winner has scored again since). One to consider with cheekpieces added as he goes handicapping. Has potential off this modest opening hurdle mark in view of his useful Flat ability.
10th	6 10th (6) (33/1 -18%) Knight Of Magic		33 33/1(-18%)																															(6) Knight Of Magic 33/1, Maiden on the Flat and hasn't made much impact in 4 starts over hurdles so far, sixth of 9 in maiden at Sedgefield (16.8f, soft) 47 days ago. Needs to leave previous form behind as he makes handicap hurdle debut. Poor on Flat but has shown some ability over hurdles and goes handicapping off modest mark.
4	4 |PU| (4) (12/1 +33%) Mister Moodles		12 12/1(+33%)																															(4) Mister Moodles 12/1, Winner at Doncaster on second start over hurdles last season but has yet to fire in handicaps this term, doing too much too soon in first-time visor when falling at the last at Sedgefield (19.8f, good to soft) on Boxing Day. Back down in trip. Showed spark over 2m4f at Sedgefield before fading; not written off now back down in trip.
10	10 |PU| (10) (28/1 -133%) Sweet Soul Music		28 28/1(-133%)																															(10) Sweet Soul Music 28/1, Modest form on the Flat but, with a visor added, showed more than on first 2 starts over hurdles when runner-up in juvenile at this C&D (good to firm) in November. Failed to repeat that effort back here last time, but he could fare better now handicapping. 66-1 runner-up over C&D in November but failed to back that up here last time; h'cap debut.

BATHGATE was denied by four lengths into second in a stronger event at Doncaster last month and is only 2lb higher. Philip Kirby's five-year-old will appreciate this drop in grade and it would be no surprise to see him make it two wins from his last three starts. Sea Legend produced a better effort to finish second at Musselburgh in November and could get involved. Of the remainder, Far Away West makes the most appeal.

FAR AWAY WEST produced 2 of her better efforts when making the frame in handicaps in September/October, so she looks an interesting contender on her first outing since joining Dan Skelton. She can leave behind her latest run as she starts off for her leading yard, with the in-form Bathgate next on the list, ahead of Sea Legend.

The in-form BATHGATE is taken to add to his win at Sedgefield in November. Far Away West is feared most on her debut for Dan Skelton

2	7 2nd (7) (15/2 -25%) Sir Laurence Graff		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(7) Sir Laurence Graff 15/2, C&D winner. Latest win here in September. Eighth of 9 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 10/1) 18 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. C&D win in September has been followed by three lesser efforts at Wolverhampton.
3	9 3rd (9) (16/1 +0%) Limelight		16 16/1(+0%)																															(9) Limelight 16/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Leicester 12 months ago on her final run for Stuart Edmunds. Others appeal more. Overall profile unconvincing but trainer has made a good start to his solo career.
4	1 4th (1) (6/5 +26%) Dubai Harbour		1.2 6/5(+26%)																															(1) Dubai Harbour 6/5, C&D winner. Winner here in December. 3/1, good third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 13 days ago. Merits serious consideration off the same mark. Conditions suit and he's on the up this winter; makes plenty of appeal.
5th	3 5th (3) (28/1 +15%) Empress Of Hope		28 28/1(+15%)																															(3) Empress Of Hope 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 28/1) 48 days ago. Up in trip. Tailed off on handicap debut but this well-bred filly moves up in trip and is unexposed.
6th	4 6th (4) (5/1 -25%) Foinix		5 5/1(-25%)																															(4) Foinix 5/1, Latest win here in August. Seventh of 11 in handicap (22/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Back down in trip with blinkers back on. Weighted to go well. Won twice over further on turf last August; good mark on that form and B Loughnane booked.
7th	2 7th (2) (5/1 0%) We'renotreallyhere		5 5/1(0%)																															(2) We'renotreallyhere 5/1, Course winner. Ridden aggressively when ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 11/1) 32 days ago. Not written off from a lenient mark. 1m win here last summer off this mark; mixed bag since and stamina is a query.
8th	10 8th (10) (22/1 -144%) Rivas Rob Roy		22 22/1(-144%)																															(10) Rivas Rob Roy 22/1, 4-time course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 22/1, solid third of 10 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago, doing too much too soon. One to consider. Fair effort at Wolverhampton this month but more is needed to come out on top here.
9th	6 9th (6) (50/1 -127%) Indian Romance		50 50/1(-127%)																															(6) Indian Romance 50/1, 33/1, first run since leaving Rae Guest when last of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, soft). Off 99 days. AW placed for R Guest; tailed off on soft on yard debut; this is more suitable, but risks.
10th	8 10th (8) (50/1 -52%) Crazy Maisie		50 50/1(-52%)																															(8) Crazy Maisie 50/1, 25/1, ninth of 10 in minor event at Kempton (11f) 14 days ago. More is required. Effective over C&D but it's been a while since she gave her running on the Flat.

DUBAI HARBOUR returned from a 50-day break to score in game manner over C&D last month and, although defeated off this revised mark twice in the intervening period, the five-year-old can be given another chance. With many of the rest struggling for form, the lightly-weighted Rivas Rob Roy and course winner We'renotreallyhere could pose the biggest threats to the selection.

A few with chances but C&D scorer DUBAI HARBOUR comes here at the top of his game so is fancied to resume winning ways. Foinix didn't enjoy the rub of the green when seventh at Chelmsford last time so this course scorer rates the chief threat ahead of handily-weighted We'renotreallyhere and Sir Laurence Graff.

Sir Laurence Graff can go well but DUBAI HARBOUR (nap) is on the up this winter and he looks the safest proposition.

1	3 1st (3) (11/1 -38%) Connect The Dots		11 11/1(-38%)																															(3) Connect The Dots 11/1, £15,000 3-y-o, Elusive Pimpernel gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful chaser Brother Pat and modest hurdler Bathgate. Dam, 10.5f winner on Flat in France, half-sister to temperamental/fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Marseillais. £15,000 May 3yo; 5th foal; half-brother to 3 winners; major yard and needs a market check.
2	6 2nd (6) (15/8 +69%) Naval Tribute		1.875 15/8(+69%)																															(6) Naval Tribute 15/8, 16,000 gns 3-y-o, Sea The Stars gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners on Flat, including smart 13f winner Waltham. Dam, 10.3f winner who stayed 14.5f, half-sister to untrustworthy but useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3¼m) Leo Luna. Considered. 16,000gns May 3yo; with some stamina and class in the pedigree and a trainer to note.
3	11 3rd (11) (9/1 -20%) Regal River		9 9/1(-20%)																															(11) Regal River 9/1, Golden Horn filly who showed ability when 5½ lengths fourth of 10 to Merely A Detail in bumper at Doncaster (16.6f, good) in November, no extra only late on. Should take a step forward on that initial effort so she's one to consider. 15-2, weakened into fourth of ten at Doncaster (good) as Merely A Detail raced clear.
4	4 4th (4) (10/1 +80%) Emerald Time		10 10/1(+80%)																															(4) Emerald Time 10/1, £9,500 3-y-o, Time Test gelding. Half-brother to 7f winner Ring of Gold. Dam, dual bumper winner, from family of top-class sprinter Marwell and very smart miler Marling. £9,500 May 3yo; half-brother to 7f winner Ring Of Gold (RPR 82); dam dual bumper winner.
5th	9 5th (9) (9/2 0%) Dilly's Gunner		4.5 9/2(0%)																															(9) Dilly's Gunner 9/2, Dartmouth filly who produced a promising first effort amidst greenness when second of 9 in bumper at Wetherby (16f, heavy) last month, keeping on after shuffled back home turn. Yard's newcomers normally come on plenty for their initial experience, so she holds leading claims. Got loose before intended debut; shaped nicely in second at Wetherby (soft) one week later.
6th	10 6th (10) (25/1 -25%) Night Burlesque		25 25/1(-25%)																															(10) Night Burlesque 25/1, £8,000 3-y-o, Outstrip filly. Half-sister to 7f-1¼m winner Nayade. Dam, unraced, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 2½m) Nexius. Worth a second look on debut. £8,000 May 3yo; her trainer's last bumper wins were in the 2021-22 season.
7th	5 7th (5) (16/1 -220%) Merely A Detail		16 16/1(-220%)																															(5) Merely A Detail 16/1, Belied a big price to make a successful debut at Doncaster in November but ran no sort of race when tailed-off last of 16 in listed bumper at Cheltenham (16.8f, soft) 3 weeks ago. Hood applied and fancied to bounce back returned to calmer waters. Won well at Doncaster (good) but tailed off in Listed event at Cheltenham (soft); hood now.
8th	1 8th (1) (10/3 -11%) Tilehurst		3.333333 10/3(-11%)																															(1) Tilehurst 10/3, Bated Breath gelding who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in 4-runner bumper at Market Rasen (16.6f, good) back in October, leading approaching final 1f then forging clear. Sold from Henry Daly for 30,000 gns the following month and should progress under a penalty. 2-1, won well at Market Rasen (good) in October; sold out of Henry Daly's for 30,000gns.
9th	2 9th (2) (14/1 +0%) Casting		14 14/1(+0%)																															(2) Casting 14/1, Desinvolte gelding. Dam 17f/19f hurdle/chase winner. Likely outsider on debut. The yard's two wins this season were in bumpers in May, one landing a gamble on debut.
10th	8 10th (8) (25/1 0%) The Three J's		25 25/1(0%)																															(8) The Three J's 25/1, Blue Bresil gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to bumper winner/smart hurdler (stayed 3m) Indefatigable. Worth a market check on debut. Trainer had an easy bumper winner in October and this representative needs a check.
11th	7 11th (7) (100/1 -300%) One More Bottle		100 100/1(-300%)																															(7) One More Bottle 100/1, Mukhadram gelding who was easy to back and shaped like a non-stayer when well beaten in bumper at Newcastle (16.9f, good) in November. Easy to look elsewhere. 100-30, beaten 30l in five-runner bumper at Newcastle (good) in November; a lot to learn.

TILEHURST made a strong impression when bolting up on his debut at Market Rasen in October and has since switched to the Neil Mulholland yard. With any amount of improvement to come, he can defy his 7lb penalty. Dilly's Gunner shaped with lots of promise when finishing second on her debut at Wetherby last month and should go well, while any market confidence behind newcomer Connect The Dots would be interesting.

DILLY'S GUNNER hails from a yard whose newcomers normally come on plenty for their initial experience so, having shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up at Wetherby on debut, she gets the vote to go one better at the expense of Merely A Detail, who caused a shock when scoring on debut but found listed company all too much at Cheltenham on New Year's Day. Stable-switcher Tilehurst and Regal River can both get involved, too.

Wetherby second DILLY'S GUNNER might upstage the penalised winners but there is also a batch of interesting newcomers to take heed of.

1	6 1st (6) (11/10 +56%) Tribal Act		1.1 11/10(+56%)																															(6) Tribal Act 11/10, Sea The Stars gelding. Half-brother to smart 1¼m/11f winner Marching Army and useful 1m winner Glittering Lights. Caught the eye on debut, getting the hang of things as the race wore on finishing fifth (met trouble) in C&D maiden 35 days ago. Bound to benefit from that experience and leading chance. Showed promise, amid greenness, in C&D maiden five weeks ago; improvement on the cards.
2	1 2nd (1) (25/1 -56%) Atlantic Sunset		25 25/1(-56%)																															(1) Atlantic Sunset 25/1, 100,000 gns yearling, Waldgeist colt. Closely related to 2-y-o 1m winner Together Forever and 1½m winner Forever Together. 25/1, last of 9 in novice at Southwell (8.1f) on debut 62 days ago, very green. Significantly up in trip. Blinkered for 1st time. Last of nine at Southwell but is well bred and may do better.
3	8 3rd (8) (6/4 -36%) Sound Janet		1.5 6/4(-36%)																															(8) Sound Janet 6/4, Nathaniel filly. Dam Japanese 9f winner who stayed 1¼m. Second of 8 in maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 7/2) on debut 32 days ago, clear of rest, with winner looking promising. Hood on 1st time. Obvious claims. Promising debut (close second) in 9.5f race at Wolverhampton; hood applied; the form pick.
4	5 4th (5) (7/2 +30%) Staffordshire		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(5) Staffordshire 7/2, Ghaiyyath gelding. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 1½m Prize Money. One to note on debut. Son of Ghaiyyath; yard has had a few debut scorers within the last month; interesting.
5th	7 5th (7) (80/1 +20%) Jazz Talking		80 80/1(+20%)																															(7) Jazz Talking 80/1, Once-raced filly. Hooded, eighth of 13 in maiden at this C&D (200/1) on debut 35 days ago. Comfortably held by Tribal Act on C&D running; hood removed.
6th	4 6th (4) (125/1 -89%) Manny Oh		125 125/1(-89%)																															(4) Manny Oh 125/1, 25/1, last of 3 in novice at Southwell (11.1f) on debut 18 days ago. Visored for 1st time. Headgear needs to make a big difference.
7th	3 7th (3) (100/1 -52%) Fornido		100 100/1(-52%)																															(3) Fornido 100/1, 250/1, seventh of 10 in novice at Lingfield (10f, AW) on debut 19 days ago, not knocked about. Never figured in 1m2f event at Lingfield.
8th	2 8th (2) (200/1 -203%) Coisty		200 200/1(-203%)																															(2) Coisty 200/1, Twice-raced gelding. 250/1, ninth of 10 in novice at Lingfield (10f, AW) 19 days ago. Down the field in both outings.

SOUND JANET kept on well over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton on her racecourse bow last month, and the daughter of Nathaniel is expected to score now upped in trip. The hood is a slight concern, though, and Tribal Act might be the one to exploit any chinks in her armour. Fifth having been slowly away over C&D on his debut, the gelded son of Sea The Stars should be more streetwise. Market support for newcomer Staffordshire should be noted.

SOUND JANET made a good start behind a promising winner at Wolverhampton last month and could be the way to go with improvement on the way. Tribal Act likewise shaped really well first time up here 5 weeks ago and will progress. Newcomer Staffordshire is interesting.

The main form contenders are SOUND JANET and Tribal Act, while newcomer Staffordshire is interesting.

1	3 1st (3) (15/8 +46%) Beauty Generation		1.875 15/8(+46%)																															(3) Beauty Generation 15/8, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Good second of 12 in handicap (7/2) at this C&D 14 days ago, faring best of those held up. That confirms he's down to a good mark and he's worth considering on the back of that. 0-12 in handicaps but ran well over C&D most recently; on a workable mark; possibilities.
2	4 2nd (4) (13/2 +68%) Lunarscape		6.5 13/2(+68%)																															(4) Lunarscape 13/2, Won 2 of her last 3 starts during the summer and not seen to best effect after 4 months off when sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 14/1) 23 days ago, getting gap under 2f out and unable to land a blow. Each-way claims with that under her belt. Seemed to need latest run (back from a break); form of her September win is solid.
3	7 3rd (7) (7/2 +61%) Fihrayn		3.5 7/2(+61%)																															(7) Fihrayn 7/2, Creditable third of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 8/1) 13 days ago, not ideally placed. Blinkers on 1st time but now his task is to back that up. Sole maiden in this field; chance partly depends on how well he reacts to headgear.
4	6 4th (6) (15/2 -15%) Enpassant		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(6) Enpassant 15/2, Fourth of 7 in handicap (3/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 22 days ago, weakening final 1f having raced freely. Not dismissed out of hand from this mark but does need to keep the slow starts at bay. Has predominantly remained in form for new yard and is attractively weighted.
5th	10 5th (10) (50/1 -52%) Night Arc		50 50/1(-52%)																															(10) Night Arc 50/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 100/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, always behind. Badly out of sorts for new stable, taking AW record to 0-12.
6th	1 6th (1) (5/1 +9%) Classic Speed		5 5/1(+9%)																															(1) Classic Speed 5/1, Registered a second C&D success under forcing tactics re-united with Oisin Murphy in October. Pulled up starting out over hurdles (2m) here on Boxing Day and feasible to see him bouncing back returned to the level. Record of 2-3 here includes a clearcut win in most recent Flat outing; respected.
7th	5 7th (5) (22/1 -57%) Chourmo		22 22/1(-57%)																															(5) Chourmo 22/1, Gained fourth victory of a productive 2024 in handicap at Newmarket (9f) in November. Pulled up in maiden hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f) 5 weeks ago but this trip could be on the short side returned to this sphere. Turf success in most recent Flat start; 0-9 on AW and looks unfavourably treated.
8th	8 8th (8) (12/1 +33%) Egoiste		12 12/1(+33%)																															(8) Egoiste 12/1, Dual winner of handicaps at Wolverhampton (8.6f) back in March but below best in trio of starts thereafter, very slowly away when last of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (1m) when last seen in June. Absent since June; yet to win when fresh; best watched.
9th	11 9th (11) (18/1 +0%) The Pug		18 18/1(+0%)																															(11) The Pug 18/1, Unreliable type. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Good second of 11 in handicap (50/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago, headed well inside final 1f and no extra. Wouldn't be sure to be in the same form here. Raced mostly in Class 6 and over further; enough to prove in this 1m Class 5.

The money has been down for KAARANAH on his last two starts and, although the seven-year-old has yet to reward his supporters, this might be the time to catch him. John Butler's gelding has been weak in the finish over 1m2f and the previous C&D winner looks set to relish a drop to the mile. Beauty Generation, who was narrowly denied over track and trip a fortnight ago, is perhaps the main threat, ahead of Fihrayn and Chourmo.

BEAUTY GENERATION confirmed he's down to a good mark when going down narrowly in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago. He's fancied to make the breakthrough in handicaps, possibly at the chief expense of Classic Speed and Enpassant. Kaaranah is another to note, particularly if strong in the betting.

Off a workable mark in the retained cheekpieces, BEAUTY GENERATION can build on his latest effort. Classic Speed is second pick.

2	3 2nd (3) (9/2 -13%) Chemical		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(3) Chemical 9/2, Off 13 weeks/gelded, below form fifth of 9 in novice (11/8) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 15 days ago, having run of race. Visor on 1st time. Exposed now but ran well in 2 good C&D novices last summer and this is winnable. Now 0-5 but career started with two solid efforts over C&D; the form choice.

Chemical sets the standard with an official rating of 78, but he's had chances and hopes appear to be pinned on the first-time visor having a positive effect. Night Of Thunder colt Zeus Olympios makes obvious appeal in a race of this nature, but fellow newcomer ANCIENT POWER gets the nod. The 28,000gns purchase looks set to relish this initial test of stamina and it would come as no surprise were he up to the task.

This could go to a newcomer, with ZEUS OLYMPIOS preferred to Ancient Power before market clues. Excuses were hard to come by for Chemical's short-priced defeat at Wolverhampton but he did run well twice in strong C&D events last summer and might not be far away back here.

The form choice is CHEMICAL, while Zeus Olympios looks the pick of the newcomers. Check the betting for further guidance.

1	5 1st (5) (7/1 -56%) Forever Proud		7 7/1(-56%)																															(5) Forever Proud 7/1, Four wins from 18 runs last year, latest success at Wolverhampton in January. Proved a let-down when sixth of 10 in handicap (7/4) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 9 days ago. Down in trip. Bounce back needed (this her seventh run in the last 5 weeks). Generally in good form this winter; drop back to 7f poses a question mark.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/1 +25%) Ashford Hill		9 9/1(+25%)																															(7) Ashford Hill 9/1, Winner at Lingfield in November.

4	6 4th (6) (7/2 +71%) Lahina Bay		3.5 7/2(+71%)																															(6) Lahina Bay 7/2, Failed to repeat previous effort when sixth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 16/1) 4 days ago, merely closing up late. Others more appealing on balance. Still seeking first AW win but recent form includes two respectable efforts.
5th	3 5th (3) (7/1 -180%) Mammy		7 7/1(-180%)																															(3) Mammy 7/1, 12/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Chelmsford (7f) just less than a fortnight ago, having run of race. Nudged up just 2 lb and could be dangerous if allowed to dictate matters once again. Back up just 2lb for her account-opening win at Chelmsford; may remain competitive.
6th	4 6th (4) (11/1 -10%) Capuchinero		11 11/1(-10%)																															(4) Capuchinero 11/1, Third of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f, 7/2) 6 days ago. Visor back on. Others more persuasive. Resurgent display would put her in the picture off last winning mark.
7th	1 7th (1) (4/1 -45%) Next Trick		4 4/1(-45%)																															(1) Next Trick 4/1, 11/4, ran creditably on first outing since leaving D. K. Weld after 12 weeks off (sold for 70,000 gns) when third of 9 in handicap at this course (8f) 7 days ago, well positioned. Cheekpieces on 1st time and should remain competitive. Ran creditably here last week on debut for new yard; possibilities off same mark.

NEXT TRICK is competitively weighted in comparison to what she achieved during her time in Ireland and, having posted an encouraging effort on her debut run for Archie Watson when third over 1m here last week, the daughter of Bated Breath makes considerable appeal dropping back a furlong with new headgear tried. Mammy, a winner over 7f off 2lb lower at Chelmsford 13 days ago, and Capuchinero rate the pick of the remainder.

MAMMY made a winning return to action after 4 months off at Chelmsford just under a fortnight ago and, nudged up just 2 lb, Michael Bell's filly is fancied to follow up at the expense of Next Trick, who made a satisfactory start for this yard when third over 1m here last week and has first-time cheekpieces applied. Forever Proud has had a hectic 5 weeks, but she can edge out Midsummer Music for minor honours.

Back down in distance with cheekpieces fitted, NEXT TRICK could well build on her reappearance effort and get off the mark.

5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 +25%) Sex On Fire		4.5 9/2(+25%)																															(1) Sex On Fire 9/2, Back on track when winning at Southwell in November but only fourth of 5 in nursery (3/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 37 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and vulnerable to less-exposed sorts. 0-5 in handicaps; looks unfavourably treated off top weight; others preferred.

MISTY SKY has been running consistently well of late and tops the shortlist in an open event following her success over 7f at Southwell earlier in the month. That said, Art Market was second that day and could get closer now that first-time cheekpieces are added. All of the remainder have claims, but the unexposed Kiniro is the pick of them.

KINIRO showed much improved form to edge out the heavy favourite a touch cosily at Lingfield recently and is taken to follow up on handicap debut with further progress on the cards. Master Technician is a likeable and consistent sort who can give him most to think about.

Handicap debutant KINIRO is taken to show further progress and follow up his Lingfield win. Master Technician is second pick.

1	2 1st (2) (5/2 +44%) Paradias		2.5 5/2(+44%)																															(2) Paradias 5/2, Took well to tapeta on final 2 starts last year, scoring readily in 6-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2, 9/4f) 27 days ago by 4 lengths from Dream Harder. Not taken lightly as he switches to polytrack. Ready success at Wolverhampton last time; could well have more to offer this winter.
2	7 2nd (7) (11/1 +21%) Gaassee		11 11/1(+21%)																															(7) Gaassee 11/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Off 7 months ahead of first run since leaving Archie Watson, fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 22/1) 18 days ago. On a handy mark if building on that. Shaped quite encouragingly on reappearance; 1-1 at Kempton (easy win); interesting.
3	6 3rd (6) (8/1 +43%) Dream Harder		8 8/1(+43%)																															(6) Dream Harder 8/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. Went backwards from his recent run when sixth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 16/1) 5 days ago. Has something to find. Held on recent form and losing run goes back to July 2023.
4	8 4th (8) (13/8 +35%) The Glen Rovers		1.625 13/8(+35%)																															(8) The Glen Rovers 13/8, Took record on all-weather to four wins from 6 starts when landing 11-runner handicap at this course (12f, 4/5) 35 days ago, still having plenty to do entering straight. Can take the step up in grade in his stride. Won the 2024 final of this series and followed up last time, taking Kempton record to 3-4.
5th	4 5th (4) (20/1 -122%) Haku		20 20/1(-122%)																															(4) Haku 20/1, Won 3 times at Wolverhampton last year, with latest success in November. Not discredited when 5¾ lengths fourth of 6 to Paradias in handicap at back Wolverhampton (12.2f, 11/4) 27 days ago. Can give his running again. Behind two of these rivals last time and may be in the assessor's grip now.
6th	5 6th (5) (28/1 -56%) Civil Law		28 28/1(-56%)																															(5) Civil Law 28/1, Without a win last year but wasn't seen to best effect when fifth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 11/4) 27 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Could fare better back up in trip. On a workable mark but his Kempton record suggests a supporting role is likely.
7th	1 7th (1) (9/2 +10%) Artistic Star		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(1) Artistic Star 9/2, Good fourth in Group 3 at Sandown on return last year, but after further 7 months off he was only seventh of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 3/1) 62 days ago. However, he's not ruled out making only his second handicap start. Likely player at this level provided he rebounds; has Group form on turf.

Having proved a decisive winner at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day, PARADIAS could be set to follow up. A 4lb higher rating for Alan King's inmate doesn't look insurmountable and he's fancied to repel the hat-trick seeking The Glen Rovers. The latter justified favouritism on his last two appearances at this venue but, while he isn't taken lightly, being 2lb out of the handicap could prove costly. Andaleep and Artistic Star are worth a second look as well.

THE GLEN ROVERS went the right way switched to all-weather last year, gaining a third course victory with a comfortable success in December, and he can continue his progression to add to his tally. Paradias also ended 2024 in good form and is respected with more still to offer on artificial surfaces, while Andaleep is another who enters calculations.

Being 2lb out of the weights isn't ideal but THE GLEN ROVERS is a very persuasive contender in all other respects.

1	6 1st (6) (1/1 -25%) Comte De Loir		1 1/1(-25%)																															(6) Comte De Loir 1/1, Promising type. Very good second of 8 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f, 85/40) 8 days ago, doing well to get as close as he did from an unpromising position. Type to progress further in handicaps and he's high on the shortlist here. Clear second at Southwell last week when upped to 2m on handicap debut; highly respected.
2	3 2nd (3) (12/1 +40%) Orchestra		12 12/1(+40%)																															(3) Orchestra 12/1, Fairly useful in this sphere and showed benefit of a run over 11f when scoring over hurdles at Huntingdon (19.6f) in November. Poor display when pulled up back there last month but he's a likely candidate to bounce back returned to the Flat. Flat turf and hurdle winner; still has something to prove on AW.
3	9 3rd (9) (9/1 -13%) Zivaniya		9 9/1(-13%)																															(9) Zivaniya 9/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 11 runs last year. 3/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 12 days ago, weakening well inside final 1f. Another holding each-way claims having fallen 2 lb below last winning mark. 2-4 over C&D and on a handy mark; fighting chance provided he's back in top form.
4	2 4th (2) (7/1 +22%) The Craftymaster		7 7/1(+22%)																															(2) The Craftymaster 7/1, Major success story on all-weather last winter, gaining a seventh career success since last December at Newcastle (16.2f) in March. Yet to hit top form in 3 starts this time around but this return to class 5 company in his favour at least. Resurgent display would put him in the picture; 2lb below last winning mark.
5th	7 5th (7) (18/1 +0%) Le Rouge Chinois		18 18/1(+0%)																															(7) Le Rouge Chinois 18/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 20/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 15 days ago, no extra only late on. Others more persuasive. Not entirely solid on recent form but latest effort gives cause for optimism.
6th	8 6th (8) (15/2 -25%) Doublethetrouble		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(8) Doublethetrouble 15/2, Latest win at Newcastle in September. 5/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 19 days ago. Likely he can give another good account. In great form in September and ran creditably on reappearance; solid chance.
7th	4 7th (4) (12/1 +40%) Haliphon		12 12/1(+40%)																															(4) Haliphon 12/1, Latest win at Haydock in September. 7/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f) 11 days ago, pushed along 4f out and struggling soon after. Needs to step up on that to feature. Latest defeat took his AW record to 0-9; enough to prove back at 2m.
8th	1 8th (1) (7/1 +50%) Percy Jones		7 7/1(+50%)																															(1) Percy Jones 7/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton (16.5f) in October. 8/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap back at that venue (14f) 26 days ago, challenging final 1f and no extra late on. Each-way player. Place claims provided he's effective here (most of his AW form is at Wolverhampton).
9th	5 9th (5) (80/1 -220%) Yorksea		80 80/1(-220%)																															(5) Yorksea 80/1, Fairly useful handicapper at best but become temperamental over hurdles, twice refusing prior to finishing well-beaten in last season's Betfair Hurdle. Subsequent break/yard switch needs to have freshened him up back on the Flat. Twice refused to race during his last spell over hurdles; debut for new yard.

COMTE DE LOIR offered plenty of encouragement when a close-up second on his handicap bow at Southwell eight days ago. The four-year-old ticks plenty of the right boxes on this quick turnaround and, off an unchanged mark, compensation could be on the cards. The biggest threat may emerge from Doublethetrouble, who arrives on the back of a fair fourth on his reappearance at Lingfield, while dual C&D winner Zivaniya warrants respect returning to this venue.

COMTE DE LOIR shaped well amidst inexperience when finishing an excellent second from an unpromising position on handicap debut at Southwell last week and, with further progress anticipated, he's very much the one to beat here. Doublethetrouble, Zivaniya and Percy Jones can do battle for minor honours in the finale.

Unexposed COMTE DE LOIR (nap) is taken to build on his Southwell effort and go one better. Doublethetrouble is second choice.

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.
