1	2 1st (2) (9/2 -35%) Jasko Des Dames		4.5 9/2(-35%)																															(2) Jasko Des Dames 9/2, Promising sort. Career best when winning 6-runner novice chase (4/6) at Wexford (19.7f, heavy) on debut over fences 19 days ago, driven out. Should progress and boasts solid claims. Won on chase debut at Wexford, questions to answer on good ground and at this trip.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 +44%) Broomfield Bijou		2.5 5/2(+44%)																															(1) Broomfield Bijou 5/2, Fairly useful hurdler. Creditable 8 lengths third of 7 to Jordans in Gr 3 chase at this course (18.3f, good, 5/1) 30 days ago. Enters calculations. Course winner over hurdles, third in a Grade 3 novice chase here latest, leading claims.
3	8 3rd (8) (4/1 +0%) Park The Giant		4 4/1(+0%)																															(8) Park The Giant 4/1, Promising type. 7/1, fourth of 9 in novice chase at Galway (18.2f, good to soft) on debut over fences 38 days ago, travelling smoothly and still in contention when clouting the last. Leading claims. Promise on chase debut, will improve for that, this trip worth a try, don't discount.
4	9 4th (9) (13/2 -30%) Undeniable Alibi		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(9) Undeniable Alibi 13/2, Lightly-raced winner under NH rules. Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Seventh of 8 in novice hurdle at Killarney (20.2f, good to soft, 6/1). Off 6 months. Makes chase debut. Point winner, rated 116 over hurdles, related to chase winners, top yard, can't dismiss.
5th	5 5th (5) (13/2 +46%) Lazer Wolf		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(5) Lazer Wolf 13/2, Fairly useful hurdler. 16/1, fifth of 12 in novice chase at this C&D (good) on debut over fences 30 days ago. May well do better. 120 rated hurdler, beaten 38l over C&D on chase bow, hood and tongue tie on, needs rain.
6th	3 6th (3) (18/1 -13%) Well Del		18 18/1(-13%)																															(3) Well Del 18/1, Thrice-raced winner under NH rules. Fifth of 6 in minor event hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.5f, good, 6/1) 10 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Won a three runner beginners' at Limerick, well-beaten over hurdles latest, best watched.
7th	6 7th (6) (40/1 -21%) Listentillitellyea		40 40/1(-21%)																															(6) Listentillitellyea 40/1, Fairly useful hurdler. One win from 23 NH runs. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft, 5/1), driven clear. Off 14 months. Makes chase debut. Won over hurdles when last seen in 2023, lacks a run for chasing debut, others preferred.
8th	4 8th (4) (10/1 +17%) Buachaillbocht		10 10/1(+17%)																															(4) Buachaillbocht 10/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle here in February. Good second of 16 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Fairyhouse (20f, heavy). Off 7 months. Can play a part if taking to chasing. Won three handicap hurdles last year, this trip and ground an unknown, may need further.
10	10 |F| (10) (20/1 +39%) Macinamillion		20 20/1(+39%)																															(10) Macinamillion 20/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Tenth of 13 in novice chase (80/1) at Wexford (16f, heavy) 18 days ago, not knocked about. Others preferred. No impact in his first two chase starts, in good hands but looks the stable second string.
7	7 |PU| (7) (28/1 -12%) Low Style		28 28/1(-12%)																															(7) Low Style 28/1, Fair hurdler. Fair winner at 15f over hurdles. Seventh of 13 in novice chase at Tipperary (16.5f, good to soft, 20/1). Off 6 months. Won over hurdles in 2022, no impact after long layoff at Tipperary in April, hard to fancy.

A tricky-looking contest and JASKO DES DAMES may be able to double up over fences after making a successful start at Wexford late last month. The It's Gino gelding was value for a bit more than his winning margin of half a length that day, after getting under the last fence, and there looks to be scope for further improvement. Broomfield Bijou also carries a winner's penalty and the mare takes a drop in class after finishing third in Grade 3 company here last month. Chase newcomer Undeniable Alibi is another for the shortlist. The Saint des Saints gelding was a point-to-point winner and may improve on his hurdles form from last season.

PARK THE GIANT was in contention when making a mess of the last on chasing debut and there's more to offer, so he's preferred to Jasko Des Dames, who opened his account at the first time of asking in this sphere. Broomfield Bijou is also capable of playing a part following a good third in Grade 3 company here last time.

BROOMFIELD BIJOU gets the nod. A course winner over timber, her Gr 3 third here last time reads well in the context of this race.

1	1 1st (1) (7/4 +22%) Jolyjump		1.75 7/4(+22%)																															(1) Jolyjump 7/4, Off the mark over timber at Taunton (16.5f) in April and looked in need of experience when fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Fakenham (16.3f, good, 10/3) on debut over fences 16 days ago. Should be more to come in this sphere. Trip/ground fine; didn't get into a jumping rhythm at Fakenham latest, but can do better..
2	3 2nd (3) (13/8 +0%) Easter Junction		1.625 13/8(+0%)																															(3) Easter Junction 13/8, Still looking for first success under Rules but posted creditable fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (20f, good to firm) when last seen in July and could be a different proposition on first start/yard debut over the larger obstacles (has experience in points). Career-low mark for this stable/chase debut, but does need to finish his races stronger..
3	5 3rd (5) (8/1 +50%) Eric Carmen		8 8/1(+50%)																															(5) Eric Carmen 8/1, Irish point winner who capitalised on his falling mark over hurdles at this course (20.4f, heavy) in May. However, weak finishes have become the norm of late and he tries a shorter trip now. Has saved best form this season (including a win) for here, albeit over 2m4f or further..
4	4 |PU| (4) (10/3 -48%) Lady Gwen		3.333333 10/3(-48%)																															(4) Lady Gwen 10/3, Tricky customer but won 3 times over hurdles last year and posted good second of 12 in handicap chase at Exeter (17.5f, good to soft) on debut over fences last month. Likely contender. Headed late on last month's Exeter chase debut; this course likely suits better; player..

These fences can be tricky to negotiate and with that in mind, previous course winner ERIC CARMEN might have an advantage over the rest. The Gary Hammer-trained gelding has been struggling to find his form over longer distances of late and, getting plenty of weight from these rivals, dropping to this trip could be a profitable move. Lady Gwen is unexposed as a chaser and warrants respect as a result, while Jolyjump is another potential improver to seriously consider.

LADY GWEN isn't straightforward but made a good start over fences at Exeter last month and can get off the mark over the larger obstacles here. Jolyjump may provide the chief threat.

Back around a suitably sharp track, LADY GWEN can make it second time lucky over fences. Jolyjump can go close if jumping better.

1	11 1st (11) (3/1 +50%) Double Powerful		3 3/1(+50%)																															(11) Double Powerful 3/1, Continues to go from strength-to-strength, typically travelling strongly when bringing up the 5-timer at Fontwell (19.1f) 7 days ago, not fluent late on but still drawing clear. Another meriting serious respect turned out under a penalty. Won his last five; penalised for last week but difficult to know how far he might go.
2	17 2nd (17) (12/1 +25%) Young Lucy		12 12/1(+25%)																															(17) Young Lucy 12/1, Sole success to date come in a Cork bumper early last year. Some promise over hurdles initially and she comes here fit from respectable efforts in staying handicaps on the Flat in recent months. Interesting if the market spoke in her favour back over hurdles for shrewd stable. Bumper winner but essentially a disappointing maiden on the Flat and over hurdles.
3	9 3rd (9) (9/2 +25%) Plaisir Des Flos		4.5 9/2(+25%)																															(9) Plaisir Des Flos 9/2, Upwardly mobile 5-y-o who completed 5-timer in good style after 6 months off in 9-runner handicap hurdle at Carlisle (20f) 3 weeks ago, always holding on under hands-and-heels ride. Handicapper applies a little more pressure but unlikely he's reached his limit yet. Player. Made it 5-5 in handicaps when beating a fellow improver at Carlisle; up another 7lb.
4	6 4th (6) (11/1 +31%) Tune In A Box		11 11/1(+31%)																															(6) Tune In A Box 11/1, Most progressive switched to handicaps last season, making it 4 wins from 5 starts when taking big-field contest at Punchestown (19.4f) in April. Shaped more encouragingly than bare result would imply on return in Silver Trophy last month and he remains potentially useful. Dropped out tamely at Chepstow a month ago and the handicapper may have caught up.
5th	7 5th (7) (25/1 -233%) Il Va De Soi		25 25/1(-233%)																															(7) Il Va De Soi 25/1, Progressive since the cheekpieces went on, confirming previous promise when off the mark at Chepstow (19.5f) in April and plenty in hand when defying an 8 lb hike at Uttoxeter (20f) later that month. Feasible to think there's even more to come this campaign. Last two wins have come on soft ground but he smacks of an improving 6yo.
6th	1 6th (1) (17/2 +6%) American Sniper		8.5 17/2(+6%)																															(1) American Sniper 17/2, Won this race 12 months ago and lines up here having bounced back to best with cheekpieces refitted when gamely landing 4-runner handicap hurdle at Newbury (24.2f) 8 days ago. Blinkers now the headgear of choice and rider's claim all but off-sets his penalty. Respected. Last year's winner; back to form last week at Newbury but today's blinkers are new.
7th	15 7th (15) (8/1 +43%) Stay If U Want To		8 8/1(+43%)																															(15) Stay If U Want To 8/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who has made a sound start over hurdles, off the mark in a Hereford maiden (16.2f) in May. Similar form back from 4 months off when second on handicap debut at Wincanton (21.4f) 4 weeks ago but likely he'll need to pull out more to take this. No match for winner on handicap debut but ran well; jockey's 10lb claim welcomed.
8th	8 8th (8) (25/1 -79%) Getalead		25 25/1(-79%)																															(8) Getalead 25/1, Caused a surprise after 6 months off when successful at Wincanton (15.2f) in October and, having escaped a penalty, he followed up at Warwick (21f) 10 days ago. Got away with some slipshod jumping on that occasion and this a taller ask in this more competitive environment. Bang in form but escaped a penalty last time; 12lb higher in this stronger contest.
9th	2 9th (2) (5/1 +69%) Whatsupwithyou		5 5/1(+69%)																															(2) Whatsupwithyou 5/1, Back to best when winning at Ludlow (21.2f, soft) last December and found only one too good all 3 starts since, latterly on the back of 6 months off in 5-runner Fontwell handicap (19f) 23 days ago. Usual cheekpieces go back on now. Consistent at this trip; on a tough mark so Callum Pritchard taking off 10lb will help.
10th	14 10th (14) (28/1 -12%) Clonbury Bridge		28 28/1(-12%)																															(14) Clonbury Bridge 28/1, Landed a big-field handicap at Cork (2m) in the spring and essentially remained in form since, good third over hurdles at Listowel (18f) in September prior to a solid second over fences at Clonmel (20.7f) 3 weeks ago. May be vulnerable from this mark back over timber, however. All bases covered as regards trip/ground and in current form is likely to run well.
11th	4 11th (4) (50/1 -79%) Foster'sisland		50 50/1(-79%)																															(4) Foster'sisland 50/1, Winless last season but signed off with a good third at Ayr (21.4f) in the spring and similar form after 7 months off when second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f) 2 weeks ago. This demands more however nudged up 1 lb. Made a pleasing return at Wetherby recently but others might be better treated.
12th	20 12th (20) (22/1 +45%) Wot You Wearing		22 22/1(+45%)																															(20) Wot You Wearing 22/1, Back-to-back winner at Chepstow last November and very encouraging start to present campaign when just touched off in a 25.5f Hereford handicap (good) in October. Not in same form when fifth back at first-named venue 17 days ago but he's a likely candidate to bounce back. No obvious reasons why his last run was so ordinary but he has a bigger effort in him.
13th	10 13th (10) (16/1 +11%) Littlefoot		16 16/1(+11%)																															(10) Littlefoot 16/1, Off the mark with cheekpieces enlisted in small-field Ballinrobe maiden (23f) in August and backed that up when third in 16-runner handicap back at that venue (22f) a month later, running on late. No reason why he won't give a good account with this stiff finish expected to suit. Assured stayer who travels over after two competitive shows in Ireland.
14th	13 14th (13) (150/1 -127%) Zacony Rebel		150 150/1(-127%)																															(13) Zacony Rebel 150/1, Dual hurdles/chase winner who was largely disappointing during a light 2023/24 campaign for Toby Lawes. Reappears after 10 months off for new yard in a hot-looking handicap and percentage call to look elsewhere. Has lost his way and changed hands for £1,000 in May; not hard to turn elsewhere.
15th	18 15th (18) (20/1 -11%) Rebel Intentions		20 20/1(-11%)																															(18) Rebel Intentions 20/1, Returned from a break at the top of his game, going one place better than at Stratford when bagging 7-runner handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f) 26 days ago, staying on well. More on his plate up 5 lb in this stronger affair but he's evidently thriving. Latest Kempton race might not have taken much winning; up 5lb and in deeper here.
16th	19 16th (19) (50/1 -79%) Victory Club		50 50/1(-79%)																															(19) Victory Club 50/1, Landed a bumper on first of 3 starts for Dan Skelton in 2022. Missed whole of last year but showed benefit of reappearance/yard debut effort at Taunton in March when second in a Wincanton maiden (15.2f) later that month. Still, this a tough introduction to handicaps/after 7 months off. Second to the fav in a maiden when last seen but has to improve on handicap debut.

Quickly turned out after another easy success at Fontwell last week, DOUBLE POWERFUL continues to go from strength to strength and it is difficult to know where his ceiling lies. Neil Mulholland's charge can bring up the six-timer at the main expense of Plaisir Des Flos, who arrives on the same winning streak. American Sniper could go close off just 1lb higher than when taking this contest last year, while the progressive Il Va De Soi is another to consider, as well as Kempton scorer Rebel Intentions.

PLAISIR DES FLOS found further progress when bringing up the 5-timer on return at Carlisle 3 weeks ago, only needing hands-and-heels riding to see off another upwardly-mobile sort (the pair clear). It's feasible to think the handicapper hasn't caught up with him yet on that evidence and Fergal O'Brien's 5-y-o makes strong appeal again. Double Powerful is of a very similar ilk and he's feared, as is Tune In A Box and Il Va De Soi in an ultra-competitive opener.

Although exposed, WHATSUPWITHYOU has been running perfectly well off his tough mark and today has the assistance of Callum Pritchard.

1	4 1st (4) (8/11 +78%) Autumn Return		0.727273 8/11(+78%)																															(4) Autumn Return 8/11, Most likeable hurdler who got off the mark at the first attempt in this sphere at Perth in September. Beat only one at Uttoxeter following month (reportedly suffered leg cut) but well worth another chance. Winning hurdler; won Perth novice handicap on chase debut; excuses last time; a possible.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/10 +56%) Imperial Merlin		1.1 11/10(+56%)																															(2) Imperial Merlin 11/10, Fairly useful hurdler who wasn't disgraced when fifth of 12 in 22f Cartmel handicap in July. Only second run over fences when fell second last (yet to be asked for effort) in February so no forlorn hope back in this sphere. Quite useful over hurdles; fair form in two chases (fell two out 2nd time); bit to prove.

Having finished a close-up second on his last two appearances, compensation could be heading in COQOLINO's direction. Ben Haslam's charge has done little wrong in recent months and he looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to get his head in front, despite a 3lb higher mark making life tougher. Autumn Return had excuses at Uttoxeter (found to have sustained a wound to right-fore) and a reproduction of her Perth victory should see her in the thick of the action. Imperial Merlin could also go close if cutting out the errors in this discipline.

AUTUMN RETURN got off to the perfect start over fences at Perth only to suffer a leg cut at Uttoxeter last time and this likeable mare is worth siding with to bounce back in style. Coqolino comes here in very good nick and rates a big threat.

Preference is for BENSON, who is well handicapped on his best form and should improve on last month's run at Hexham.

6	6 (6) (25/1 0%) There's No Limit		25 25/1(0%)																															(6) There's No Limit 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden over hurdles. Fair winner at 10f on flat. Blinkered for 1st time, third of 7 in juvenile hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, good, 16/1) 45 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not disgraced in a maiden at Sedgefield last month; much more needed here.
1	3 1st (3) (16/1 -88%) Coul Dreamer		16 16/1(-88%)																															(3) Coul Dreamer 16/1, Fairly useful maiden on the Flat, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Eighth of 14 in maiden (16/1) at Dundalk (10.7f) 21 days ago, doing too much too soon. Some decent maiden form and no surprise if he went well here.
2	7 2nd (7) (2/1 +20%) Turn And Finish		2 2/1(+20%)																															(7) Turn And Finish 2/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Promising type. 12/1, third of 17 in juvenile hurdle at Galway (16.4f, good to soft) 20 days ago, running on late. Stable having good spell. Solid claims. Good Galway run; might prefer it softer but going the right way and can get involved.
3	5 3rd (5) (2/1 -7%) Puturhandstogether		2 2/1(-7%)																															(5) Puturhandstogether 2/1, Fairly useful Flat winner, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Seventh of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good, 5/2) 83 days ago. Notable newcomer to hurdling. Useful Flat horse; likely to make the market and likely to be the best of the newcomers.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 -14%) Babich		4 4/1(-14%)																															(1) Babich 4/1, Fairly useful maiden on the Flat, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Second of 6 in maiden (7/4) at Roscommon (10.4f, soft) 32 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Tongue-tied for his hurdles debut and certainly interesting on his Flat form.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 +17%) Magic Thunder		10 10/1(+17%)																															(4) Magic Thunder 10/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden. 9/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, thirteenth of 17 in juvenile hurdle at Galway (16.4f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Dual winner on the Flat in France but very disappointing in two runs over hurdles.
6th	9 6th (9) (10/1 +55%) Carried With Love		10 10/1(+55%)																															(9) Carried With Love 10/1, Fair maiden on the Flat, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Third of 18 in handicap (4/1) at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 18 days ago, nearest finish. Has the ability to win a race although he looks the stable third choice here.
7th	10 7th (10) (100/1 +0%) Sprinkles		100 100/1(+0%)																															(10) Sprinkles 100/1, Modest maiden on the Flat, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Tenth of 11 in handicap (25/1) at Naas (10.4f, good). Hood on for 1st time in this code. No form to speak of on the Flat and makes little appeal on current evidence.
8th	8 8th (8) (28/1 -40%) Bhean Saibhre		28 28/1(-40%)																															(8) Bhean Saibhre 28/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Promising type. Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 12 in juvenile hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good, 14/1) on NH debut 10 days ago, not knocked about. May well do better. Stronger race than Fairyhouse but not without an each-way chance if she can improve.

Joseph O'Brien saddles three in this and PUTURHANDSTOGETHER may prove the pick on his hurdling debut. The Caravaggio gelding showed a nice level of ability on that Flat, winning a Curragh handicap off a mark of 79, and his half-brother Showurappreciation won over hurdles last year. Stablemate Turn And Finish has hurdling experience under his belt and is entitled to be a leading contender. He was a fine third at Galway 20 days ago, while Babich ran well in Roscommon maiden on the Flat last month and is another to note on his jumping bow.

PUTURHANDSTOGETHER achieved a fairly useful level of form on the Flat and should be well prepared for this hurdling debut by his top yard, so he's preferred to stablemate Turn And Finish, who stayed on well into third at Galway last time. Ballyearl is an interesting newcomer on pedigree.

TURN AND FINISH ran very well over hurdles at Galway and comes right into it. His previous experience might just prove crucial

8	8 (8) (28/1 -40%) Martalmix'jac		28 28/1(-40%)																															(8) Martalmix'jac 28/1, Just 1 lb higher than for his clear-cut victory in a 4-runner Leicester handicap in February but pulled up both subsequent starts, including on his reappearance at Stratford last month. Pulled up in both starts since winning at Leicester in February.
1	4 1st (4) (15/8 +63%) Icare Grandchamp		1.875 15/8(+63%)																															(4) Icare Grandchamp 15/8, Opened chase account in a 13-runner handicap at Newton Abbot (21f, good) in June. By no means disgraced back from a break at Bangor (20.3f, heavy) recently and should have a big part to play back on better ground. Novice chaser who has form figures of 213 this term and may still have more to offer.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/4 -29%) Davidoc		2.25 9/4(-29%)																															(1) Davidoc 9/4, Point winner who opened his hurdles account at the fourth attempt in a good-ground Plumpton maiden (2m) in April. Beaten favourite in a couple of handicaps since but shapes as though this step up in trip will be in his favour now switched to fences and represents an in-form yard. Point/hurdle winner who is bred to make a chaser; has largely consistent form; solid.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +50%) Begin The Luck		3.5 7/2(+50%)																															(6) Begin The Luck 7/2, Deservedly got his head back in front when capitalising on a lower hurdles mark at Stratford (18.7f, heavy) last month. Forecast quicker ground here no issue and should make his presence felt returned to the larger obstacles. Scored over hurdles last time; ties in with Icare Grandchamp on June running.
4	2 4th (2) (11/1 +21%) Fever Dream		11 11/1(+21%)																															(2) Fever Dream 11/1, Winner over hurdles at Perth in June and followed that with a couple of respectable efforts in defeat. Built for chasing but recent debut effort in this sphere at Fakenham left much to be desired, even allowing for the fact that the drop to 16.3f was against him. Yard also saddles Up For Appeal. This step back up in distance looks a plus on second chase attempt.
3	3 |F| (3) (18/1 -80%) Force De Frap		18 18/1(-80%)																															(3) Force De Frap 18/1, Successful at Bangor and Ludlow last term but ended that campaign with a couple of rather subdued efforts. All 4 career wins have been gained at around 2m and he's probably worth taking on back up in trip here following a 6-month absence. Lacks recent match practice and has a bit to prove back up in distance.
5	5 |PU| (5) (10/1 -100%) Doyen For Money		10 10/1(-100%)																															(5) Doyen For Money 10/1, Winner of sole start between the flags and notched second success over hurdles when landing a handicap at Wincanton (19.8f, soft) on sole start last season. Makes chase debut off 10 lb higher mark but he is one to consider nonetheless. Point winner; 2-3 in handicap hurdles; open to further progress on reappearance.

A mistake four out put paid to the unexposed DAVIDOC rewarding favourite-backers in a hurdle race at Plumpton last month but, looking every inch a chaser, the switch to this discipline can see the Ben Pauling-trained gelding make amends. Icare Grandchamp has winning form over fences and is feared most off a competitive mark. Last-time-out hurdle winners Begin The Luck and Doyen For Money command respect but have more to do from their revised marks now switched to chasing.

It's likely that point winners DAVIDOC and Doyen For Money will step up on what they showed over hurdles now switched to the larger obstacles. Marginal preference is for the former, who promises to be suited by this stiffer test and he hails from a yard that has made a very bright start to the season. Icare Grandchamp is third choice ahead of Begin The Luck.

Topweight DAVIDOC should take well to chasing and is first choice ahead of Icare Grandchamp, who looks another solid contender.

1	2 1st (2) (2/1 +20%) Hyland		2 2/1(+20%)																															(2) Hyland 2/1, Useful hurdler who made it 2-3 over fences when scoring by a wide margin over C&D (good) 20 days ago. The front pair in the market that day clearly didn't give their running but he nevertheless did the job in good style and has to be respected. 2-2 on the Old course here, latest success in novice chase by 15l; strong contender.
2	4 2nd (4) (9/2 -13%) Resplendent Grey		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(4) Resplendent Grey 9/2, Ended last season on the up over hurdles and perfect start to chase career when readily accounting for 5 rivals in a 2½m Uttoxeter handicap on return last month. This is more demanding but he should have more to offer and shapes as though this stiffer test will be right up his street. Scored readily at Uttoxeter on the switch to fences and is open to further progress.
3	1 3rd (1) (2/1 -14%) Springwell Bay		2 2/1(-14%)																															(1) Springwell Bay 2/1, Very useful hurdler. Jumping improved as the race wore on when landing a 5-runner listed event on chase debut at Chepstow (19.5f, good) last month, form which was boosted when the third (Boombawn) recently landed a Grade 2 at Wincanton. Open to improvement in this sphere and he's a big player. Won over hurdles at this meeting in 2023; took well to fences at Chepstow last month.
4	3 4th (3) (16/5 +36%) Buddy One		3.2 16/5(+36%)																															(3) Buddy One 16/5, Smart hurdler who made the frame in top stayers' events at the big festivals during the spring. Landed the odds in a 3-runner affair at Galway (22.5f, good to soft) on debut in this sphere last month but was put in his place at Wexford since and will need to brush up on his jumping. The best hurdler in this field but hasn't shown the same form in two chase runs.

A comfortable winner on his debut over fences at Chepstow last month in a race that has worked out well since, SPRINGWELL BAY is taken to continue his progression at a track where he scored at this meeting last year over hurdles. The step back up to 3m should aid his cause and the seven-year-old gets the vote ahead of Hyland, who is already two from three over fences and could not have done it any easier when scoring over C&D last month. Resplendent Grey impressed at Uttoxeter and this rise in distance could bring about further improvement.

Preference is for RESPLENDENT GREY, who looked a smart novice in the making at Uttoxeter and he looks ready for both this step up in class and trip. Springwell Bay also made a winning chase debut at Chepstow and is greatly respected given that, like the selection, he is open to improvement in this sphere. Hyland is impossible to discount on the back of his emphatic C&D success but Buddy One, though the pick of these over hurdles, has not looked a natural over fences so far.

Promising chaser SPRINGWELL BAY (nap) is taken to defy a 5lb penalty for his tidy Chepstow success. Hyland is feared most.

Past C&D winner who should go well under a penalty. Back to form when winning Kelso handicap on good to soft on Saturday; faster going a worry.

Clearly the one to beat in the hat-trick bid. Two from two with headgear for this yard; 3lb well in after last week's easy win (2m).
4	2 4th (2) (9/1 -29%) Micks Jet		9 9/1(-29%)																															(2) Micks Jet 9/1, Bumper winner who made steady progress over hurdles prior to landing the odds in Musselburgh maiden (19.8f, soft) in February. Tame efforts subsequently but starts handicaps on a potentially lenient mark back from 6 months off. Easy winner of a mares' maiden in February but pulled up both starts since; bit to prove.

FROMHERETOETERNITY is unbeaten in two starts for the Jennie Candlish stable and couldn't have been more impressive in novice company at Hexham last week. The seven-year-old steps back into the handicap ranks with a 7lb penalty to shoulder but that is unlikely to prevent her from completing the hat-trick. Starlyte was a comfortable winner at Kelso recently and it would be no surprise to see her heavily involved here, while See A Stride could take third spot.

FROMHERETOETERNITY is thriving for current connections and is well fancied to complete the hat-trick with the potential for even more improvement. Fellow last-time-out winner Starlyte is a threat and Kay Tara Tara can play a part if stepping forward from her stable debut.

Following her easy novice win at Hexham a week ago, FROMHERETOETERNITY is taken to follow up with her penalty.

3	13 3rd (13) (11/2 -10%) Tumuch		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(13) Tumuch 11/2, Once-raced maiden. 7/1, fifth of 9 in bumper at Gowran (18f, heavy) on NH debut. Off 8 months. Warrants respect on hurdles debut. Should be a lot better than his debut but others have more compelling claims here.
4	1 4th (1) (40/1 +0%) Bayrann		40 40/1(+0%)																															(1) Bayrann 40/1, Promising sort. Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 14 in novice hurdle (18/1) at Gowran (16f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 6 days ago. Should improve.

Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/top-class chaser (2m/17f winner) Ferny Hollow. Point winner in 2022. Market check advised on NH debut. From a strong family but may find this too demanding on belated racecourse debut.
7th	18 7th (18) (200/1 +20%) Wayside Lady		200 200/1(+20%)																															(18) Wayside Lady 200/1, Modest maiden on the Flat.

Improvement required on hurdles debut. Not effective last twice and others look more likely players here on her hurdles bow.

Looks sure to give another good account. May find the market leaders too hot to handle here but should get into the money.

Fair winner at 8f on flat. 66/1, tenth of 17 in handicap at Galway (8.6f, good to soft). Switches from Flat to hurdles. First run for yard after leaving Ciaran Murphy. Best watched on debut here for Aengus King; well beaten in two previous runs over hurdles.

The Willie Mullins-trained IRANCY should prove hard to beat on his second start for the stable. A winner in his native France as a three-year-old, the gelding made a promising start for new connections when third on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse last December. Given that both the winner and runner-up went on to prove themselves in Grade 1 company, this looks a nice opportunity for the six-year-old. Rapparee Champ, a winner on the Flat for Joseph O'Brien, has been improving with each run over hurdles. Charles Byrnes' representative holds every chance of opening his account in this sphere. Point-to-point/bumper scorer Will The Wise is another who is worthy of respect.

IRANCY is in good hands and shaped with plenty of encouragement when third on his hurdles bow at Fairyhouse in December. He can land the spoils here. Rapparee Champ and Will The Wise are feared most.

Preference is for IRANCY who was third in a very hot maiden hurdle when last seen almost a year ago and should take beating

LITTLE WATSON won a bumper on his racecourse debut for Nigel Twiston-Davies in May and was sold shortly after before moving to the Suzy Smith stable. He was beaten less than a length by the odds-on favourite over this C&D on his sole outing since and, if he improves again, then he could go one better today. Tony Joe makes his debut and has the pedigree as a son of Westerner but he may be better over further, while Remus showed glimmers of ability on his debut.

TONY JOE makes stacks of appeal on paper as a half-brother to Ahoy Senor and from a yard that makes hay in these races, so he could have the measure of the penalised Little Watson. Benmore is another newcomer to note.

The vote goes to LITTLE WATSON, who won on his debut in May and was only narrowly denied under a penalty over C&D on recent return.

1	2 1st (2) (1/3 +25%) Jonbon		0.333333 1/3(+25%)																															(2) Jonbon 1/3, Top-class chaser who has won 9 of his 11 starts over fences. Enjoyed a near-flawless campaign last term, which started with a clear-cut victory in this race (beat the re-opposing Edwardstone by 9½ lengths) and culminated with a terrific display in the Celebration Chase at Sandown. Hard to oppose. Overall record of 15-18 includes a win in this race last year; highly respected as usual.

Back on track following a couple of falls when 7¼ lengths fourth to Jonbon at Sandown on final run of last term, finishing just over 3 lengths behind Edwardstone. Has undergone a wind op. Behind a couple of these rivals in Sandown G1 when last seen; had wind surgery since.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/2 +0%) Edwardstone		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(1) Edwardstone 9/2, Classy chaser who landed the Arkle over C&D at the 2022 Festival. Back to his best under a change of tactics (made all) when bolting up in the Game Spirit at Newbury in February but he's been beaten by Jonbon on each of their 3 previous meetings, including in this race last year. Beaten three times by Jonbon last term but a return to front-running tactics may help.

Didn't do much wrong when second in a fairly valuable 4-runner graduation chase at Carlisle on Monday but he faces a tall order on these terms. Won last season's Grand Annual; second at Carlisle four days ago; this is harder.

Already installed as favourite for the Champion Chase next March, big things are expected of JONBON this campaign as he looks to build on a brace of Grade 1 victories in the spring. A winner of nine of his 11 starts over the larger obstacles, it is difficult to look past Nicky Henderson's stable star as Edwardstone aims to close the almost 10-length gap between them in this contest last year. The son of Kayf Tara could be dangerous if left to an easy lead, though, while Boothill looks most likely to capitalise on the back of wind surgery if those two falter.

It's hard to look beyond JONBON, who has few peers at up to 2½m over fences and he beat Edwardstone on each of their three meetings last term, including on his reappearance in this race and final start of that campaign in the Celebration Chase at Sandown. Boothill, who was a place behind Edwardstone in the latter race, is an appealing option for forecast purposes given his excellent record when fresh.

At the likely prices, a chance is taken that EDWARDSTONE can finally beat Jonbon who commands the usual respect all the same.

Others make more appeal. May prove himself as a stayer if keeping the mistakes at bay; has received wind surgery..
1	1 |U| (1) (2/1 +0%) Home Sweet Highway		2 2/1(+0%)																															(1) Home Sweet Highway 2/1, Confirmed previous promise over hurdles when off the mark at Bangor (23f) in June. Not a convincing chaser as yet, below form on his last couple of starts, but he is on a feasible mark. Easiest task to date over fences, but will need to jump better to capitalise; down 3lb..
4	4 |PU| (4) (8/13 +100%) Kingofthegame		0.615385 8/13(+100%)																															(4) Kingofthegame 8/13, Ex-pointer who, following a quick switch to chasing, has shown encouragement the last twice, notably when a strong-finishing third at Kelso 20 days ago. Likely to open his account upped in trip. Good third at Kelso latest (2m1f); mark unchanged; could well come good at 3m yet..

Plenty to prove on the back of that. Player on form of June's Uttoxeter second (3m, good); poor stable debut last month..

Kingofthegame took a step forward from his chasing debut to make the frame at Kelso, but stepping up in trip here is a slight concern. Therefore, it may pay to side with HOME SWEET HIGHWAY, who was admittedly well beaten into third at Carlisle but now drops in class off a 3lb lower mark. Donald McCain's charge makes only his fourth chase start and could be the one to beat, while Halfway House Lad also has a squeak.

KINGOFTHEGAME looked ahead of this mark when finishing well into third at Kelso last time and most of his rivals have something to prove, so he's the obvious choice to take this. Home Sweet Highway is probably the main danger from a handicapping perspective but needs to step up on his last couple of efforts.

Assuming they see out this stayers' trip and cut out the errors, KINGOFTHEGAME can lead home Halfway House Lad.

1	5 1st (5) (11/2 +15%) Vischio		5.5 11/2(+15%)																															(5) Vischio 11/2, Temperamental sort. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 11/2, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16f, heavy) 19 days ago. Not out of things. Dual-purpose, Listed winner on the Flat, ran well over this C&D last month, claims.
2	7 2nd (7) (10/1 +29%) Cozone		10 10/1(+29%)																															(7) Cozone 10/1, Latest win in hurdle at Clonmel in October. 20/1, creditable third of 20 in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Back down in trip. Tongue strap back on. Each-way claims. Won a 2m4f claimer at Clonmel last month, not a bad run at Cork latest, this trip a worry.
3	1 3rd (1) (15/2 +25%) Banana Three		7.5 15/2(+25%)																															(1) Banana Three 15/2, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 12f on flat. Creditable seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, good to soft, 33/1) 13 days ago. Others more persuasive. Promise on all four starts over hurdles, not disgraced on handicap bow, place chance.
4	12 4th (12) (20/1 0%) Arthur's Victory		20 20/1(0%)																															(12) Arthur's Victory 20/1, Sixteenth of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, soft, 25/1) 24 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Respectable on last hurdle outing. Others more appealing. Shaped okay at Fairyhouse last month, poor on the Flat latest, needs more to win.
5th	11 5th (11) (25/1 +0%) Ricky Langford		25 25/1(+0%)																															(11) Ricky Langford 25/1, Moody sort. Latest win in chase at Downpatrick in August. 28/1, fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Down Royal (16.4f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Makes limited appeal. Ran okay over fences on latest, poor last run over hurdles, may need help from handicapper.
6th	3 6th (3) (8/1 -33%) Inchiquin Star		8 8/1(-33%)																															(3) Inchiquin Star 8/1, Aided by first-time cheekpieces when decisively returning to winning ways in 11-runner handicap hurdle (13/2) at Wexford (16.4f, heavy) 18 days ago. Remains feasibly treated and must enter calculations. Up 8lb for winning at Wexford on latest, a career best will be needed to follow up.
7th	10 7th (10) (8/1 +33%) Sayitfirst		8 8/1(+33%)																															(10) Sayitfirst 8/1, Latest win in hurdle at Roscommon in September. 14/1, creditable 5¾ lengths fourth of 17 to Jake Peter in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.3f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Looks competitive on form. In-form mare, won at Roscommon in September, placed last three runs, thereabouts again.
8th	8 8th (8) (16/1 +20%) Burren Song		16 16/1(+20%)																															(8) Burren Song 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 12f on flat. Sixth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Dundalk (12f) 14 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Poor on last hurdle run. Flat winner, promise in maiden hurdles but has struggled in h'caps, others appeal more.
9th	6 9th (6) (6/1 +14%) Luimneach		6 6/1(+14%)																															(6) Luimneach 6/1, 3/1, creditable 2½ lengths third of 18 to Redcliff Glen in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16.3f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Enters calculations. Two-time winner, has run well since returning from a layoff, should be competitive again.
9	9 |F| (9) (40/1 -60%) Redcliff Glen		40 40/1(-60%)																															(9) Redcliff Glen 40/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, well-beaten thirteenth of 17 to Jake Peter in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.3f, good to soft, 18/1) 12 days ago. Work to do. Won at 40-1 on penultimate at Limerick, poor in follow up attempt, watch the market.
10th	2 10th (2) (7/2 +42%) Jake Peter		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(2) Jake Peter 7/2, Back to winning ways in this sphere over C&D last month and followed up in 17-runner handicap hurdle at Cork (16.3f, good to soft, 10/1) 12 days ago, comfortably. 9 lb higher now but looks sure to go well again. Dual-purpose, on a hat-trick after wins here and at Cork, career best needed off this mark.
11th	4 11th (4) (12/1 -50%) Gwan Tadhg		12 12/1(-50%)																															(4) Gwan Tadhg 12/1, Three-time winner last term who got back on the up when good third of 11 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Tramore (16f, good to soft) in May. Can go well fresh so merits consideration. Progressed in h'caps last year; solid effort when last seen, goes well fresh, chance.

The in-form JAKE PETER can complete a hat-trick for trainer Mark Cahill. A C&D winner last month, the veteran followed up with a commanding success at Cork last time. Best on a sound surface, the gelding has been fortunate that the weather remains dry and another bold showing likely beckons. Vischio is unquestionably well handicapped over hurdles although the mare can sometimes ruin her chances at the start. If getting away on terms, the seven-year-old looks one of the more likely types in a competitive affair. The consistent Luimneach is also of interest.

JAKE PETER arrives in fine form and ought to have conditions to suit once more. He may be able to complete the hat-trick. Gwan Tadhg and Inchiquin Star head the list of dangers.

VISCHIO has run well in three of her last four, trip and ground will suit and she was just denied on her last visit to this track.

1	3 1st (3) (2/13 +38%) Dance And Glance		0.153846 2/13(+38%)																															(3) Dance And Glance 2/13, Promise in a big-field Newbury bumper on debut and duly improved to win a similar race at Plumpton (tongue tied) in May. Starts out over hurdles in a very winnable race. Won the second of two bumpers; an obvious candidate on hurdles debut..
2	1 2nd (1) (13/2 +59%) Bennettshill		6.5 13/2(+59%)																															(1) Bennettshill 13/2, Irish point winner in 2023 but pulled up on Bangor hurdle debut some 18 months later. 18-1, pulled up on hurdles debut at Bangor (2m, soft); good ground could suit better.
3	2 3rd (2) (16/1 -357%) Classical Sting		16 16/1(-357%)																															(2) Classical Sting 16/1, The betting is probably the best guide to expectations on debut but there's a lot of stamina in his pedigree so he may require longer trips than this. Dam, runner-up in her only point start, is sister to two smart jumps winners; check market.
4	5 4th (5) (50/1 +0%) Dunstall Angel		50 50/1(+0%)																															(5) Dunstall Angel 50/1, Glimmers of ability in a couple of bumpers last season but pulled up on Wetherby hurdle debut and reappearance a fortnight ago. Well beaten in two bumpers and pulled up on her recent hurdles debut at Wetherby..

In a very small field, there is every chance that Anthony Honeyball has found a suitable opportunity for Plumpton bumper winner DANCE AND GLANCE to get off the mark on his first attempt over hurdles. He made all when last seen in May and with Richie McLernon keeping the ride, he could try the same tactics here. Bennettshill pulled up on his debut under NH rules at Bangor but did win his point-to-point at Ballingarry and can only improve, while newcomer Classical Sting is one to watch in the betting.

This looks a good chance for Plumpton bumper winner DANCE AND GLANCE to make a successful start to his hurdle career, with Classical Sting best of the rest.

Bennettshill may do better back on good ground but bumper winner DANCE AND GLANCE has good claims now hurdling.

1	8 1st (8) (5/1 +50%) Sweet David		5 5/1(+50%)																															(8) Sweet David 5/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser in France who opened his account in X-Country Chase at Durtal (21f) in April. In-the-frame all 4 starts since, latterly when second at Haras du Pin (25.8f) 33 days ago. Long way out of weights here but record in this discipline a positive. French raider; placed in cross-country chases on last two outings; 17lb wrong today.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/1 -11%) Mister Coffey		5 5/1(-11%)																															(4) Mister Coffey 5/1, Frustratingly still without a win in this sphere but did run well on second start of last season when runner-up at Doncaster in December. Below best with cheekpieces fitted final 2 starts (discarded here) but he could be the type to take to the demands of this sort of race. 0-13 over fences but last season's Doncaster second was among his best form; a possible.
3	9 3rd (9) (33/1 -32%) Back On The Lash		33 33/1(-32%)																															(9) Back On The Lash 33/1, Dual Cross-Country winner here but didn't have much spark about him last season and he never threatened in amateur riders' chase here on return from 5 months off in October. Return to this discipline needs to spark a revival but another operating from miles out of the weights. Twice a winner on this cross-country course but has been badly out of form for a while.
4	6 4th (6) (33/1 -175%) Statuario		33 33/1(-175%)																															(6) Statuario 33/1, Enhanced excellent Perth record with another brace of small-field wins in May/June. Cracking third in Summer Plate next start and given a break following a couple of lesser efforts in August/September. However, work to do from out of weights here. In prime form in spring/summer but has gone off boil lately; 7lb wrong; unraced beyond 3m.
5th	5 5th (5) (13/2 +46%) Slipway		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(5) Slipway 13/2, Strong stayer who dispelled a couple of low-key efforts when resuming winning ways at Kempton (3m) in March. Well held in Bet365 Gold Cup on final start in April but returns to action with his yard in rude health and will have no issues with this trip. 4-12 over fences but has become very inconsistent; 4lb wrong for cross-country debut.
6th	3 6th (3) (9/1 -29%) Busselton		9 9/1(-29%)																															(3) Busselton 9/1, Last success over jumps came in 2022 Kerry National but resumed winning ways with blinkers refitted on Flat at Galway (16.5f) in July. Hasn't been in same form either start on Flat/over fences since though, and switch to this discipline needs to perk him up. Very useful handicap chaser at his best but has regressed; makes cross-country debut.
7th	7 7th (7) (17/2 -21%) Fameaftertheglory		8.5 17/2(-21%)																															(7) Fameaftertheglory 17/2, Temperamental sort who remains a maiden over jumps but produced one of his better efforts when runner-up in this discipline at Punchestown (24.4f) back in May. 8 lb "wrong" at the weights on return but wouldn't be a great surprise to see him in the frame if putting best foot forward. Placed over C&D last December; 8lb wrong today but still considered each-way.
8th	1 8th (1) (9/2 -50%) Conflated		4.5 9/2(-50%)																															(1) Conflated 9/2, High-class Irish chaser who emerged with plenty of credit when placed in Ryanair/Melling Chase at Spring Festivals. Unseated at first on return and looked like he'd come on for the run when fifth in the Charlie Hall Chase 2 weeks ago. Intriguing contender with his sights lowered considerably. Didn't fire last time but this top-class chaser will be too good for this field if on song.
2	2 |PU| (2) (10/3 +52%) Tommie Beau		3.333333 10/3(+52%)																															(2) Tommie Beau 10/3, Credit to connections who landed 3 of his first 4 starts at Cartmel this term nd typically solid efforts from the front have followed, third of 7 in Durham National at Sedgefield (29.2f) 26 days ago. Merits respect from 1 lb lower mark. Game front-runner who stays very well and has been in career-best form this season.

Conflated's presence in this field leaves all but three running from out of the handicap and the dual Grade 1 winner demands respect on his cross country debut, but a chance is taken on the experience of FAMEAFTERTHEGLORY. He represents a Gavin Cromwell stable which has a fantastic recent record at Prestbury Park and he's performed well over the 'banks and hedges' on numerous occasions in the past, including when third over C&D last December. Mister Coffey is interesting on his first start in this discipline, while French raider Sweet David adds further spice to the race.

The fascinating contender here is CONFLATED. Twice placed in Grade 1s (including here) during the spring, Gordon Eliott's high-class chaser should be sharper for what was effectively his reappearance in the Charlie Hall 2 weeks ago and he's of interest provided he sees out the longer trip. Tommie Beau is a highly admirable sort and is feared ahead of returning pair Mister Coffey and Slipway.

Dual Grade 1 winner CONFLATED is in a different league to today's rivals over regulation fences and could be very hard to beat.

1	3 1st (3) (11/10 -21%) Hunters Spring		1.1 11/10(-21%)																															(3) Hunters Spring 11/10, Nayef filly. Sister to 1¼m winner Stockbridge Tap and half-sister to 7f/1m winner Thewaytothestars. Dam (h127) 2m hurdle winner, also 11f winner on Flat. Yard/jockey won this last year and she's a likely sort on debut. Dam won 1m3f Flat/2m hurdles for same owner; yard gets its share of bumper debut winners..
2	1 2nd (1) (85/40 +39%) Krugerrand		2.125 85/40(+39%)																															(1) Krugerrand 85/40, Ten Sovereigns gelding who offered limited encouragement when fifth of 7 in bumper at Ludlow (15.8f, good to soft) last week, outpaced from early in straight. Should've learnt a good deal from that so is fancied to take a step forward. Outpaced near-6l fifth on last week's Ludlow debut (2m, good); stiffer track may suit..
3	4 3rd (4) (40/1 -21%) Mahpenny		40 40/1(-21%)																															(4) Mahpenny 40/1, Mahsoob filly. Dam fair hurdler (23f winner). Market check advisable. Relative of Hello Bud and Esha Ness; would be forgiven if finding this too sharp already..
4	2 4th (2) (10/3 -33%) One More Bottle		3.333333 10/3(-33%)																															(2) One More Bottle 10/3, Mukhadram gelding. Brother to 7f/1m winner Alotabottle and half-brother to 4 winners. Dam ran once on Flat. Worth a second look on debut. Sibling to five Flat winners from 5f-1m2f, some prolific; yard 0-2 in bumpers to date..
5th	5 5th (5) (18/1 +45%) Poppys On Fire		18 18/1(+45%)																															(5) Poppys On Fire 18/1, Gleneagles filly who was a cheap purchase given her good Flat pedigree and achieved nothing when tailed-off last of 8 in bumper at Aintree (17f, good) last week. Will need to leave that well behind. Appealingly bred but beat nothing home on last weekend's debut; may need more time..

LTO Selection:

Krugerrand finished a creditable fifth on his debut at Ludlow and would have learnt a great deal from that experience, but newcomer HUNTERS SPRING makes more appeal. The daughter of Nayef is related to plenty of winners and it would be no surprise to see her score on her first start for powerful connections. Any market confidence behind Mahpenny would be interesting.

Lucinda Russell and Conner McCann combined to win this with a debutante last year and they can repeat the trick with HUNTERS SPRING, who is one of the few in the field with a NH pedigree. Krugerrand offered limited encouragement when fifth in a Ludlow bumper last week, but he can provide most resistance to the selection, with One More Bottle rounding off the shortlist.

From a yard which can ready bumper newcomers of any age, HUNTERS SPRING is preferred to Ludlow fifth Krugerrand.

1	7 1st (7) (40/1 +20%) Rockymountainbleu		40 40/1(+20%)																															(7) Rockymountainbleu 40/1, Like stablemate Committee Meeting he has a point background, finishing runner-up in a maiden in October 2023. First run since. Placed in a point-to-point, had a future UK maiden hurdle winner behind, check market.
2	3 2nd (3) (2/5 +10%) Sounds Victorius		0.4 2/5(+10%)																															(3) Sounds Victorius 2/5, Course bumper winner in February. Fourth in Grade 1 events a the Cheltenham and Punchestown Festivals in the spring. Likely to be very hard to beat on hurdle debut. Top yard, classy Grade 1 bumper form here and at Cheltenham last season, the one to beat.
3	8 3rd (8) (7/2 +86%) The Diddler		3.5 7/2(+86%)																															(8) The Diddler 7/2, Modest hurdler. Creditable third of 9 in maiden at Cork (20.4f, good) 33 days ago, faring best of those held up. Vulnerable to anything with potential. Placed in both starts over hurdles, good ground fine, looks the main danger.
4	6 4th (6) (66/1 -164%) Committee Meeting		66 66/1(-164%)																															(6) Committee Meeting 66/1, Successful on second of 2 starts in points (Apr 13).

5th	4 5th (4) (5/1 -67%) The Dancing Tree		5 5/1(-67%)																															(4) The Dancing Tree 5/1, Won on Limerick bumper debut in January. Respectable sixth of 14 in bumper at Cheltenham (16.4f, good) 9 months later. Longer trip should suit now hurdling. Won heavy ground bumper in January, not disgraced latest at Cheltenham, each-way shout.
6th	1 6th (1) (66/1 -32%) Derby Rock		66 66/1(-32%)																															(1) Derby Rock 66/1, Tongue strap on, showed a bit when never-dangerous fifth of 11 in maiden hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft, 80/1) on NH debut 51 days ago. Up in trip. May do better. Beaten 32l on debut at Listowel, well-bred but may need more time on that evidence.

Fourth of 10 in maiden hurdle (50/1) at Clonmel (16.2f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Up in trip. Much-improved effort on good ground on latest, this longer trip should suit, place chance.

SOUNDS VICTORIUS, a course bumper winner before subsequently finishing fourth in Grade 1 bumpers at both Cheltenham and the festival here, can make a winning debut over hurdles. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding, who has the potential to take high rank in the novice hurdle division this season, should have too much class for these opponents. The Diddler, who has reached the frame on both starts over hurdles so far, has to rate the main danger. Given her previous experience of jumping, the six-year-old mare looks the one for second, ahead of Limerick bumper winner The Dancing Tree.

It's very hard to ignore the claims of smart bumper performer SOUNDS VICTORIUS now hurdling for the Willie Mullins team. What threat there is may come from fellow bumper winner and hurdle newcomer The Dancing Tree.

This looks a good opportunity for the classy bumper peformer SOUNDS VICTORIOUS to get off the mark on his hurdling debut.

1	3 1st (3) (18/1 -227%) Playtogetaway		18 18/1(-227%)																															(3) Playtogetaway 18/1, Fairly useful 2m hurdle winner. Hasn't taken to fences on his last 2 outings but may fare better back over the smaller obstacles. Safely held in two chases this autumn but reverts to hurdling on a workable mark.
2	4 2nd (4) (15/8 +63%) Toonagh Warrior		1.875 15/8(+63%)																															(4) Toonagh Warrior 15/8, Wetherby novice winner last November. Mostly ran with credit in handicaps later in the season and should be sharper for last month's course reappearance. Worth chancing in first-time cheekpieces. Largely consistent last season and ran okay on reappearance outing; cheekpieces now added.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +0%) Thankyourluckystar		3.5 7/2(+0%)																															(6) Thankyourluckystar 7/2, Runner-up twice prior to resuming winning ways at Worcester (2½m, good to soft) in June. Returns from a break with the Alastair Ralph stable going well. Considered. Scored at Worcester in June and is now 2-9 over hurdles; back from a break today.
4	1 4th (1) (14/1 +44%) Isthebaropen		14 14/1(+44%)																															(1) Isthebaropen 14/1, Veteran who failed to build on a mildly encouraging run at Worcester in September when down the field at Wetherby (3m) last month. Not at best on any of three appearances since returning from one-year absence in September.
5th	7 5th (7) (20/1 -67%) Rehill Relic		20 20/1(-67%)																															(7) Rehill Relic 20/1, Point winner who showed promise in bumpers/novice hurdles for this yard last season. Well beaten on Exeter handicap debut and reappearance 24 days but he probably needed the run. Well beaten on seasonal/handicap debut but may yet deliver on novice promise.
6th	9 6th (9) (5/1 +75%) Time To Tinker		5 5/1(+75%)																															(9) Time To Tinker 5/1, It's now 19 runs since his last win in 2021 and recent efforts don't point to him snapping the losing run soon. Blinkers off, cheekpieces back on. Placed off much reduced mark in September but has not built on that performance since.
7th	2 7th (2) (25/1 -233%) Phillapa Sue		25 25/1(-233%)																															(2) Phillapa Sue 25/1, Hurdle and chase winner who ran sort of races over fences at Carlisle on her reappearance 3 weeks ago. Can only really watch after that. Won over hurdles and fences last season but has become hard to predict.
8th	8 8th (8) (40/1 +0%) Charlie My Boy		40 40/1(+0%)																															(8) Charlie My Boy 40/1, Hasn't shown any spark for present yard and has plenty to prove. Has looked badly out of sorts for new stable this year; needs to turn a corner.
9th	5 9th (5) (9/2 -80%) Barrons Land		4.5 9/2(-80%)																															(5) Barrons Land 9/2, Front-runner who gained a fourth success of a very productive first half of the season when proving a length too strong for a subsequent winner at Sedgefield at the start of October. Has since switched from Donald McCain to Laura Horsfall. Likely still on a workable mark. Four wins for Donald McCain this season; can go well from the front again on stable debut.

The progressive BARRONS LAND arrives here on the back of two victories and a 5lb rise for the most recent of those wins may not be enough to stop her from making a winning debut for these connections. Thankyourluckystar also scored on his latest outing and has to be of interest on his return, while Toonagh Warrior is the pick of the remainder.

TOONAGH WARRIOR could be spot on for this with his reappearance behind him and gets the vote in first-time headgear. Alastair Ralph has his team in form so Thankyourluckystar rates a possible threat on his first outing since scoring at Worcester in June. The prolific Barrons Land has changed stables since his latest win but still merits respect.

This can go to TOONAGH WARRIOR (nap), who shaped well on his recent seasonal debut, has slipped to a good mark and sports new headgear.

Up in trip and open to further improvement. Made it 3-3 over hurdles with a fautless wide-margin success here three weeks ago.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/2 +21%) Gale Mahler		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(5) Gale Mahler 11/2, Most progressive and likeable mare, making it 6 wins on the spin (including bumpers) in 8-runner listed hurdle at Galway (2m) in July. No match for Valgrand here 12 weeks later but probably didn't give her true running. Back up in trip. Improving mare but was hammered by Valgrand here last time; returns to further.
6	6 |F| (6) (40/1 -186%) Rockstown Girl		40 40/1(-186%)																															(6) Rockstown Girl 40/1, Returned to form in a first-time tongue strap when defying a penalty in a 16-runner novice hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) 35 days ago, keeping on well. Has plenty more on her plate up in grade, however. First-time tongue-tie and over 2m3f when producing a career best at Chepstow.
3	3 |U| (3) (150/1 -127%) Grandad's Cap		150 150/1(-127%)																															(3) Grandad's Cap 150/1, Very stiff task here and looks one for the longer term. Shaped okay in a 2m novice at Wetherby but this still looks a big ask on the back of that.

VALGRAND was mightily impressive when beating the reopposing Gale Mahler by 17 lengths over an extended 2m here last month and it's hard to see how the latter can reverse that form being just 5lb better off at these weights. Dan Skelton's charge could potentially improve again for stretching out in distance and he is fancied to get the better of Potters Charm, who justified favouritism when winning over 2m4f on the same card here three weeks ago. The Twiston-Davies runner certainly wasn't as attractive on the eye, making a number of mistakes on the way round, and the selection could be away and gone if he doesn't jump with more fluency.

VALGRAND and Potters Charm put their unbeaten records in this sphere on the line, with preference for the former, who produced a borderline smart performance when scoring in an excellent time here 3 weeks ago. Gale Mahler was no match for the selection on that occasion but probably didn't give her true running and can at least make more of an impact if returning to her Galway form.

The manner in which VALGRAND dominated here last month left a deep impression. Potters Charm is 3-3 under rules and hard to fault.

Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.4f, heavy, 10/1) 18 days ago, pulled up before next. Up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

Another 7 lb higher now but has to enter the reckoning in his current mood. In-form mare is on a hat-trick, up 7lb for latest win but should go well again.

A winner at Fairyhouse earlier this month, DELIAS PET followed up at Gowran Park last week and the daughter of Stowaway could be hard to beat. Tommies Call is a definite threat given the manner in which he opened his account last time. Although now 8lb higher, the Jarlath Fahey-trained gelding should not be discounted. Dee's Getaway is another that comes into this race on the back of a victory and the four-year-old has more scope for improvement than most of these.

KILMURRY JJ ran as well as he's ever done over hurdles when third at Fairyhouse recently and is taken to build on that and deny Delias Pet the hat-trick. Klassman was third when Tim Doyle's mare gained the first of her 2 wins and also makes the shortlist along with recent Fairyhouse scorer Tommies Call.

Preference is for KLASSMAN who was unlucky not to get closer to Delias Pet at Fairyhouse and he may be able to turn that form around.

1	4 1st (4) (8/1 +50%) Zoran		8 8/1(+50%)																															(4) Zoran 8/1, Modest chaser who has been below form on the Flat lately. Returns to the smaller obstacles on a potentially lenient mark, though, so not completely dismissed. Maiden hurdler but a winner over fences and this mark is fine, as is good ground.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/9 +39%) Officer Of State		0.444444 4/9(+39%)																															(1) Officer Of State 4/9, Useful on the Flat for Andre Fabre in France, sold for 65,000 gns after opening his account a 15f conditions race in October. Left previous hurdling form well behind when readily landing a Fontwell handicap a week ago and has a big chance of defying the penalty. Cantered home on handicap debut and essentially off the same mark here.
3	9 3rd (9) (100/1 +0%) Saint Vic		100 100/1(+0%)																															(9) Saint Vic 100/1, Not really threatened in 7 starts in this sphere, including from a modest mark in handicap company. Hard to fancy. Beaten about 20l+ in all eight races under rules and tailed off in his two handicaps.
4	5 4th (5) (5/1 +33%) Martalite		5 5/1(+33%)																															(5) Martalite 5/1, Career best when winning 13-runner handicap hurdle (7/1) at Ludlow (21.2f, good to soft) 22 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Still not fully exposed, so may do better still. Looked unlikely for a lot of the race but he stayed on best to prevail narrowly at Ludlow.
5th	8 5th (8) (20/1 +39%) Charming Getaway		20 20/1(+39%)																															(8) Charming Getaway 20/1, Didn't show much in a bumper/half-a-dozen starts over hurdles for Kim Bailey but showed he retained ability when fourth on stable debut at Stratford 6 months ago. Not seen since. Encouraging return at Stratford, that in spite of hanging right-handed on second circuit.
6th	3 6th (3) (18/1 +64%) Scorsese		18 18/1(+64%)																															(3) Scorsese 18/1, Showed fair form in maiden hurdles in Ireland but has been soundly beaten for current yard. Tried in cheekpieces now. Uncompetitive in four handicaps for this yard and now goes in cheekpieces.
7	7 |PU| (7) (20/1 +20%) Lightening Gesture		20 20/1(+20%)																															(7) Lightening Gesture 20/1, Fair Flat winner who hasn't stood much racing since his juvenile days and was pulled up at Huntingdon last month, so left with a bit to prove. Fairly treated on his placed efforts should he give himself a chance by settling.
6	6 |PU| (6) (100/1 -100%) Caughtinaspell		100 100/1(-100%)																															(6) Caughtinaspell 100/1, Little to get excited about in 5 outings for Michael Kennedy in Ireland and fared no better in two starts for Olly Murphy. Ex-Irish maiden; lasted just two races with Olly Murphy; others safer.

OFFICER OF STATE had plenty in hand when making a winning handicap debut at Fontwell a week ago and the five-year-old is very hard to oppose as he is 15lb well in here, despite a 7lb penalty. However, Laser Focus bolted up at Huntingdon on Tuesday and cannot be discounted off the same mark, while Martalite edges out Zoran to be the pick of the remainder.

OFFICER OF STATE and Laser Focus both scored with plenty in hand last time and should be able to feature once again, although the former makes more appeal given how much handicapping scope he has based on Flat form. Zoran is the best of the remainder returning to hurdling.

It's hard to get away from OFFICER OF STATE who made a mockery of his initial mark last week. He's essentially off the same mark here.

1	4 1st (4) (11/2 +8%) Wreckless Eric		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(4) Wreckless Eric 11/2, Raced around 2m, winning a juvenile and handicap for Ben Pauling in the spring. Held every chance when falling 2 out in Wincanton handicap on reappearance and looks one to keep on side for his in-form new yard. Looked poised to challenge before falling on seasonal/stable debut; remains of interest.
2	10 2nd (10) (50/1 -150%) Cavern Club		50 50/1(-150%)																															(10) Cavern Club 50/1, Fairly useful Flat winner and made a successful start over hurdles at Cartmel (17f) in July. Runner-up under a penalty at Stratford in September but well-beaten fourth on Worcester handicap debut later that month. The cheekpieces he wore regularly on the Flat go on for the first time over hurdles. Easily won weak maiden in the summer but was soundly beaten on handicap debut in September.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/1 +0%) Balhambar		9 9/1(+0%)																															(5) Balhambar 9/1, Fairly useful on the Flat for Michael Bell and much improved over hurdles since handicapping, winning at Ludlow and Bangor in April. Warmed up for this with a creditable third on the Flat at Newbury last month. Has cheekpieces and a tongue tie combined for the first time. Considered. Very progressive towards end of last season and made pleasing return on Flat last month.
4	11 4th (11) (7/2 +30%) Fasol		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(11) Fasol 7/2, Very useful winning stayer on Flat in France. Promise when placed twice in maiden hurdles at Newbury and Kempton earlier in the year. Respectable fourth in Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot when last seen in June. Dangerously well treated on Flat ability on handicap hurdle debut. Smart stayer on the Flat when trained in France and very unexposed over hurdles.
5th	2 5th (2) (11/2 +45%) Clap Of Thunder		5.5 11/2(+45%)																															(2) Clap Of Thunder 11/2, Placed on 3 of 4 starts in bumpers last season. Struck at the second time of asking over hurdles when readily seeing off 5 rivals in a 2m Ascot novice 13 days ago. Interesting making a quick switch to handicaps. Quite stylish winner at Ascot this month, his second hurdling start; high on the list.
6th	14 6th (14) (100/1 -203%) Razzle Dazzle Boy		100 100/1(-203%)																															(14) Razzle Dazzle Boy 100/1, Promising second of 11 in 2m Uttoxeter novice (soft) in July but not in the same form at Newton Abbot the following month. Couldn't have been found a much tougher introduction to handicaps. Placed on last two hurdling starts but opening handicap mark demands improvement.
8th	12 8th (12) (10/1 -11%) Belgoprince		10 10/1(-11%)																															(12) Belgoprince 10/1, Four-time Flat winner. 0-12 over hurdles but ran well to be placed in a couple of handicaps over the summer and his stable's runners over here always merit respect. 0-12 over hurdles; below form on last two Flat starts; others have more pressing claims.
9th	1 9th (1) (28/1 -75%) Bright Legend		28 28/1(-75%)																															(1) Bright Legend 28/1, Fairly useful on the Flat and over hurdles. Back on form when third in a 2m handicap hurdle at Listowel in September and has run creditably on the Flat since. 0-6 over hurdles but ran well when placed in Listed handicap in September; a possible.
10th	3 10th (3) (16/1 -14%) Chutzpal		16 16/1(-14%)																															(3) Chutzpal 16/1, Completed a cross-code hat-trick over the summer, the last 2 wins coming in handicap hurdles. Possibly unsuited by rain-softened ground when below-form third in Killarney novice last month and no surprise were he to resume his progression now. Below form last month but has generally done very well for new stable since the spring.
11th	6 11th (6) (6/1 +33%) Letterston Lily		6 6/1(+33%)																															(6) Letterston Lily 6/1, Bumper winner at the third attempt and also landed 2 of her first 3 starts over hurdles. Even better form when reaching the frame in 2½m handicaps since (here last time) but isn't sure to benefit from this return to a shorter trip. Wears first-time cheekpieces. Dual novice winner who has made the frame in two competitive 2m4f handicaps this autumn.
12th	7 12th (7) (12/1 -9%) Golden Maverick		12 12/1(-9%)																															(7) Golden Maverick 12/1, Fairly useful 5-time winner on the Flat for Ian Williams and has taken well to hurdling for this yard, winning a 2m Haydock juvenile and 17.5f Musselburgh handicap in the spring. Creditable second at Hereford when last seen in May and has the potential for even better this winter. Won quite valuable series final for juveniles in April; needs to kick on again.
13th	8 13th (8) (14/1 +44%) Callin Baton Rouge		14 14/1(+44%)																															(8) Callin Baton Rouge 14/1, Much improved for this yard, completing a handicap hurdle hat-trick over the summer. However, had winning run ended in better company here 3 weeks ago and this looks even tougher if anything. Won first three races for this stable but could not land a telling blow here last time.
14th	13 14th (13) (22/1 +45%) Shinji		22 22/1(+45%)																															(13) Shinji 22/1, Off the mark in 2m Southwell novice handicap in June and good second at Newton Abbot a fortnight later. Seemed stretched by 21f when fifth at Ludlow on recent return from a break, shaping as if in good form. Has remained in good nick since low-grade win in June but others have stronger form.
15th	9 15th (9) (14/1 -27%) Can't Resist It		14 14/1(-27%)																															(9) Can't Resist It 14/1, Fair form in bumpers in Ireland. Promising efforts when placed in maiden hurdles at Huntingdon and Market Rasen for Fergal O'Brien earlier in the year. Makes a quick switch to handicaps on return. Likely capable of better. Placed in maiden hurdles on first two stable starts; has a lot more on his plate here.

Fasol is unexposed with only two hurdle starts under his belt and the 100-rated Flat performer is sure to have plenty of supporters on his handicap debut, but BALHAMBAR gets the vote representing the shrewd Harry Derham stable. He has progressed with each hurdle start since joining this yard, chasing home subsequent easy Swinton Hurdle winner Pickanumber last time, and a recent pipe-opener on the Flat should have put him spot on for this assignment. Clap Of Thunder, Belgoprince and Model Approach are others to note.

WRECKLESS ERIC looked menacing when coming down at the second last on his Wincanton reappearance and could prove the answer with the O'Neill stable going well. Balhambar, an improver in handicap hurdles in the spring, arrives fit from a run on the Flat last month and heads the many dangers along with low-mileage handicap newcomers Fasol, Can't Resist It and Clap of Thunder.

Preference is for CLAP OF THUNDER, who needed only to be pushed out to win a recent Ascot novice and looks well handicapped.

1	10 1st (10) (12/1 +52%) Savalas		12 12/1(+52%)																															(10) Savalas 12/1, Course winner. Latest win at Bath in September. 16/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 2 days ago. Not taken lightly. Below his best on AW in three runs since a Bath win in September.
2	11 2nd (11) (25/1 -25%) We're Reunited		25 25/1(-25%)																															(11) We're Reunited 25/1, Course winner. 40/1 and visored for 1st time, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, soft) 15 days ago. Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. On a losing run and he has struggled for consistency this year; opposable once more.

Temperamental sort, though. Tumbled down weights and there was more promise returned to AW latest; each-way claims.
5th	6 5th (6) (8/1 +20%) Evoluir		8 8/1(+20%)																															(6) Evoluir 8/1, Won at Southwell in October. Only sixth of 9 for his new yard in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 16/1) 8 days ago so needs to step forward. Not at best on recent stable debut at Newcastle; earlier Southwell win gives him a shout.
6th	8 6th (8) (50/1 +0%) Advindi		50 50/1(+0%)																															(8) Advindi 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 48 days ago. Bred to be better than this level and dropping to 6f could help; check market.
7th	12 7th (12) (28/1 +30%) Lil Wade		28 28/1(+30%)																															(12) Lil Wade 28/1, Remains a maiden after 18 runs and only eighth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 11 days ago. It's easy to look elsewhere. Exposed 18-race maiden; the odd fair effort but others look much safer.
8th	5 8th (5) (22/1 -144%) Q Twenty Boy		22 22/1(-144%)																															(5) Q Twenty Boy 22/1, 3-time C&D winner. Creditable second of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 34 days ago. Needs considering once more. Conditions to suit and comes here on the back of a solid effort at Chelmsford; tricky draw.
9th	3 9th (3) (8/1 -45%) Doves Of Peace		8 8/1(-45%)																															(3) Doves Of Peace 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October. 9/2, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 34 days ago. Can make presence felt. Two 6f wins (one here) since August; latest fourth needs bettering but each-way claims.
10th	9 10th (9) (50/1 -150%) Cheese The One		50 50/1(-150%)																															(9) Cheese The One 50/1, 9/2, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (8f), finding test too much. Off 10 months. Cheekpieces back on. Can give a good account if ready to roll. 7f win in August 2023; usually runs over further and drawn wide after a ten-month absence.
11th	2 11th (2) (66/1 -32%) Spiritual Pursuit		66 66/1(-32%)																															(2) Spiritual Pursuit 66/1, Blinkered for 1st time, eighth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 80/1) 20 days ago. Back up in trip. Handicap mark in freefall; poor form for new yard but worth a market check.

Kapparis Kid could go well dropping back in trip after his recent Newcastle fourth, but BEAUZON may have his measure. A C&D winner on Monday and carrying a 5lb penalty, the five-year-old has won at this venue six times off marks up to 69, suggesting he can follow up. Doves Of Peace and Q Twenty Boy are others to consider.

BEAUZON bagged his sixth C&D success recently and looks weighted to go in once more under a penalty. Q Twenty Boy also has an excellent record round here and is feared most ahead of Doves of Peace and Cheese The One.

Everything looks in place for another big run from BEAUZON and he can defy his penalty. Kapparis Kid is feared most.

1	1 1st (1) (6/1 -9%) Dark Ace		6 6/1(-9%)																															(1) Dark Ace 6/1, 11/1, showed much improved form to get off the mark in 12-runner maiden at this C&D 16 days ago, well positioned. May well progress again. Much improved for C&D win on AW debut last month; good chance of following up.
2	3 2nd (3) (1/1 +47%) Sounds Like A Plan		1 1/1(+47%)																															(3) Sounds Like A Plan 1/1, 5/1, won 8-runner maiden at Navan (5.8f, good) on debut 6 months ago, having to pick way through. Bit concerning he's not been seen since, but is open to improvement nonetheless. Impressive Navan debut winner back in May but absent since; could take the beating.
3	5 3rd (5) (15/2 +46%) Gran Habano		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(5) Gran Habano 15/2, 25/1, matched previous form after 5 months off when 6 lengths seventh of 21 to East Hampton in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Will be better off in handicaps. Fair level of form in 3 starts but 6l to find with East Hampton on recent Curragh run.
4	2 4th (2) (7/2 -56%) East Hampton		3.5 7/2(-56%)																															(2) East Hampton 7/2, Confirmed previous promise returning from a break when winning 21-runner maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 7/2) 29 days ago, quickening to lead final 1f. Makes all-weather debut. Open to further improvement. Recent Curragh winner; brother to a 6f AW winner so good chance he'll handle this surface.
5th	8 5th (8) (14/1 -40%) The Duke Mardukas		14 14/1(-40%)																															(8) The Duke Mardukas 14/1, Held back by inexperience when seventh of 11 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft, 7/1) on debut 24 days ago, very slowly away. Blinkered for 1st time. Needs to improve plenty on recent Curragh debut but blinkered now and Keane takes over.
6th	10 6th (10) (13/2 -30%) Cradle Of Love		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(10) Cradle Of Love 13/2, 7/4, followed a good run with a below-par one when fifth of 14 in maiden at this course (7f) 7 days ago. Has good chance on form. Contender on best form but becoming disappointing and vulnerable.
7th	6 7th (6) (33/1 -106%) Just Jump		33 33/1(-106%)																															(6) Just Jump 33/1, Still in need of experience when eighth of 19 in maiden (16/1) at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) 23 days ago, finishing with running left under hands-and-heels riding. Slowly away and green when midfield in Navan maidens last month; lots more needed.
8th	7 8th (7) (200/1 -100%) Little Lando		200 200/1(-100%)																															(7) Little Lando 200/1, 28/1, showed only greenness when 10¾ lengths last of 12 to Dark Ace in maiden at this C&D on debut 16 days ago. Slowly away and green when last of 12 behind Dark Ace over C&D last month.
9th	9 9th (9) (125/1 -25%) Chriselli		125 125/1(-25%)																															(9) Chriselli 125/1, 40/1, never better than mid-field when 9 lengths thirteenth of 21 to East Hampton in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) on debut 29 days ago. Minor late headway on recent Curragh debut behind East Hampton but nearly 10l to find.
10th	4 10th (4) (125/1 -89%) Fort Star		125 125/1(-89%)																															(4) Fort Star 125/1, 25/1, had contested 2 barrier trials but offered little when thirteenth of 19 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) on debut 23 days ago. Never counted after awkward start on last month's Navan debut; best watched for now.
11th	11 11th (11) (300/1 -50%) Miss Susanna		300 300/1(-50%)																															(11) Miss Susanna 300/1, Last of 10 in maiden (125/1) at this course (5f) on debut 14 days ago, rearing and losing all chance at start. No chance after a desperately slow start over 5f here a fortnight ago; best watched.

EAST HAMPTON sets a good standard here off a mark of 90. The David Marnane-trained colt had some nice runs in hot maidens earlier in the campaign before opening his account at the Curragh last month. Connections said after his victory that he had matured a lot after a break and he looks like a nice sprinting prospect. Sounds Like A Plan was a good winner on his debut at Navan back in May, beating a smart horse in Tunbridge Wells. He commands respect but his absence since then would be a slight concern. The 84-rated maiden Cradle Of Love gets a nice chunk of weight, and has placed form here, so has to be considered.

Plenty in with a squeak but the vote goes to CRADLE OF LOVE, who is easily the most experienced of these and ran to a fairly useful level when narrowly denied here on her penultimate start. East Hampton confirmed previous promise returning from a break when scoring at the Curragh last month so he can provide most resistance, with another couple of previous winners Sounds Like A Plan and Dark Ace both fancied to be in the mix, too.

Impressive Navan winner SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN could take plenty of beating on his return to action

1	10 1st (10) (10/3 +72%) Autumn Rose		3.333333 10/3(+72%)																															(10) Autumn Rose 10/3, Winner at Haydock in July. Good sixth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 22 days ago. Merits serious consideration off an easing mark. Won a 7f handicap at Haydock off this mark for today's rider in July; up and down since.
2	11 2nd (11) (17/2 +23%) Buttercross Flyer		8.5 17/2(+23%)																															(11) Buttercross Flyer 17/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Respectable third of 4 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 18/1) 7 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts once more. Had plenty of racing and needs to leave recent efforts behind to win.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/2 +39%) Unreal Connection		5.5 11/2(+39%)																															(5) Unreal Connection 11/2, First run since leaving Amanda Perrett when last of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 7/1) 8 days ago. Thirteen runs since her last win in 2023. Dropped right away on recent stable debut; down in trip; chance on best form.
4	1 4th (1) (16/1 +52%) Nevernay		16 16/1(+52%)																															(1) Nevernay 16/1, 40/1, first run since leaving Richard Hannon when last of 7 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 15 days ago. Low-key stable debut two weeks ago (1m); down in class but unconvincing overall.
5th	6 5th (6) (33/1 -175%) Go Wild		33 33/1(-175%)																															(6) Go Wild 33/1, Winner at Lingfield in September. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fair fifth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 11/1) 15 days ago. Not ruled out with headgear again sported. Well held in two handicaps following a win in a weak fillies' novice at Lingfield (1m, AW).
6th	4 6th (4) (5/1 +58%) Shibuya Storm		5 5/1(+58%)																															(4) Shibuya Storm 5/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Lingfield in June. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, firm, 14/1) 58 days ago. Makes tapeta debut with more needed. Down the field in two handicap runs; hopes pinned on the extra furlong giving her a lift.
7th	12 7th (12) (33/1 0%) Lincoln's Inn		33 33/1(0%)																															(12) Lincoln's Inn 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, eleventh of 14 in handicap (80/1) at Newcastle (6f) 6 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running on her comeback. Absent since low-key 6f run in May; unexposed but perhaps sharper for this return.
8th	2 8th (2) (13/2 -18%) Scarlet Lady		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(2) Scarlet Lady 13/2, Winner at Yarmouth in August. Eighth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on. Not kicked on from her easy Yarmouth win in August; blinkers return but others preferred.
9th	7 9th (7) (3/1 +14%) Port Hedland		3 3/1(+14%)																															(7) Port Hedland 3/1, 4/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 51 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Can make his presence felt. 0-7 but has shown promise and today's step up to 7f could spark improvement.
10th	9 10th (9) (22/1 -83%) Alfheim		22 22/1(-83%)																															(9) Alfheim 22/1, 40/1 and blinkered for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Naas (10.4f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Makes tapeta/ yard debut (formerly with Jessica Harrington) and one to consider. Worth a market check. No solid form over further in Ireland; big drop in trip on stable debut; drawn wide.

Alfheim is noted making her first start for George Boughey after arriving from Ireland, but she will need to improve after finishing last at Naas in October. Buttercross Flyer showed improvement when third at Newcastle last time out, but HAVANA FORCE is most interesting. Six placed efforts earlier in her career suggest she has ability, and first-time blinkers may see her score.

Lots with chances and the handily-weighted AUTUMN ROSE could prove the answer on the back of her good C&D sixth last time out. Buttercross Flyer can also have a say in her bid to end a lengthy losing sequence, with George Boughey's new recruit Alfheim another to consider, especially if the market vibes are positive.

Unreal Connection is better than she showed last week but PORT HEDLAND may be the answer now he moves up in distance.

1	3 1st (3) (17/2 -13%) Dontspoilasale		8.5 17/2(-13%)																															(3) Dontspoilasale 17/2, One win from 28 Flat runs. Twenty-four runs since last win in 2022. Third of 9 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 14 days ago, running on. Enters calculations. Strong-finishing C&D third a fortnight ago; one to consider although wide draw not ideal.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/2 +54%) Dream Today		5.5 11/2(+54%)																															(1) Dream Today 11/2, Four-time C&D winner. First run since leaving Jack W. Davison when eighth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at this C&D 14 days ago. Back to a potentially lenient mark. Four-time winner here but recent C&D yard debut leaves him with plenty to find.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/4 +63%) Mehman		2.25 9/4(+63%)																															(7) Mehman 9/4, Course winner. 13/2 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f) 35 days ago, nearest finish. Not discounted. Wins over 5f but stayed 7f here latest; not one to rule out with 10lb claimer aboard.
4	4 4th (4) (9/4 +50%) Moltophino		2.25 9/4(+50%)																															(4) Moltophino 9/4, 14/1, creditable second of 14 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) 34 days ago, never nearer. Place possibilities. C&D second and recent Naas second augurs well.
5th	14 5th (14) (20/1 -43%) Ivasecret		20 20/1(-43%)																															(14) Ivasecret 20/1, Latest win at Laytown in September. Sixth of 8 in minor event (125/1) at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Others look stronger. Ran above himself in Curragh conditions event latest but 9lb rise makes this difficult.

7th	10 7th (10) (17/2 +23%) Hero Of The Hour		8.5 17/2(+23%)																															(10) Hero Of The Hour 17/2, Three-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 12 runs this year, the latest here in October. Thirteenth of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (5f, good to soft, 16/1) 29 days ago. Looks vulnerable. Won here on penultimate start, soft ground against him since; respected despite wide draw.
8th	9 8th (9) (80/1 -186%) Clonmacash		80 80/1(-186%)																															(9) Clonmacash 80/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 10 in claimer (13/2) at this C&D 9 days ago. Uphill task. Won C&D nursery this time last year but below form this year.
9th	13 9th (13) (50/1 -52%) Revenite		50 50/1(-52%)																															(13) Revenite 50/1, 14/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at this C&D 49 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Promising yard debut at Laytown in September but poor C&D run 11 days later raises doubts.
10th	12 10th (12) (20/1 -43%) Army Of India		20 20/1(-43%)																															(12) Army Of India 20/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Ninth of 11 in claimer (7/2) at this C&D. Off 8 months ahead of this yard debut. Wouldn't be without a chance if on-song back from a break. Way below best in C&D claimer in early March when last seen and has since switched yards.
11th	6 11th (6) (25/1 -108%) May Night		25 25/1(-108%)																															(6) May Night 25/1, Below form fifth of 15 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good, 25/1), racing closer to pace than ideal. Off 138 days and down in trip on this debut for new yard. Prolific AW winner also won at Cork in May for Denis Hogan; back from break for new yard.
12th	2 12th (2) (25/1 -400%) Jered Maddox		25 25/1(-400%)																															(2) Jered Maddox 25/1, Four-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year. 8/1, won 10-runner handicap at Laytown (6f) 60 days ago. Big player. Laytown winner needs to improve on previous runs here though.

5	5 |RR| (5) (12/1 -20%) Cash Or Crypto		12 12/1(-20%)																															(5) Cash Or Crypto 12/1, Unreliable sort. C&D winner. Refused to race in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good, 8/1). Off 6 months. Others more persuasive. Last year's winner but refused to race at Naas back in May; caution advised.

MEHMAN ran on well over 7f here last time after having plenty to do turning for home. He will have no issue dropping back to 6f now and Nicola Burns looks very good value for her 10lb claim. Off a mark of 75, he should be capable of gaining a fourth win around here. Dontspoilasale ran well on his return to this venue a fortnight ago, when third to Daamberdiplomat, and off a 2lb lower mark he's entitled to be a big player. Moltophino was a decent second at Naas last time and is another to consider.

JERED MADDOX resumed winning ways at Laytown last time and, still on a fair mark, he is taken to follow up back at a course where he has scored seven times in the past. Having returned to form when third over this C&D a fortnight ago, Dontspoilasale gets the nod for forecast purposes ahead of Army of India and Mehman.

Plenty with chances but MEHMAN looks a strong candidate, having been left with plenty to do when upped in trip last time

2	6 2nd (6) (9/2 +47%) Queen Himiko		4.5 9/2(+47%)																															(6) Queen Himiko 9/2, Modest form in 2 outings over 7f at Newmarket this autumn. Needs to improve for AW and a longer trip. Made late headway at Newmarket (7f) latest and looks a possible improver upped in trip.
3	7 3rd (7) (10/1 -82%) Tempted		10 10/1(-82%)																															(7) Tempted 10/1, Promising type. Fourth of 10 in novice (3/1) at Southwell (7f) 15 days ago. Up in trip. Open to further improvement. Close fourth at Southwell and she's open to more progress back up in trip; respected.

7th	10 7th (10) (25/1 -213%) Solar Pass		25 25/1(-213%)																															(10) Solar Pass 25/1, Phoenix Reach filly. Half-sister to 1¼m winner Brora Breeze and useful 1¼m-1½m winner Mount Atlas. Wears hood. Would need considering if the betting speaks in her favour. Hood is applied on debut but she has a striking pedigree and needs watching in market.
8th	5 8th (5) (50/1 +38%) Prima Diva		50 50/1(+38%)																															(5) Prima Diva 50/1, Both starts over 7f at Kempton, hinting at ability last time. Probably more one for handicaps after this. Well held at massive prices in two 7f Kempton events last month; others preferred.

Yard 29% with 2yos on AW this year and needs checking in market on debut.

An interesting race where the comfortable Kempton winner American Gal will attempt to give 7lb or more to all of her rivals, which may be a big ask barring plenty of improvement. Tempted showed better form when fourth at Southwell last month and could be interesting, but so is TRUSTED ADVISOR. The daughter of Ulysses showed signs of inexperience on her C&D debut before keeping on into fifth, and she could be the one they all have to beat if improving for that experience.

AMERICAN GAL was quite a taking winner on her 1m Kempton debut 16 days ago and can defy a penalty with improvement likely. The chief threat may come from Trusted Advisor and Tempted unless the betting speaks in the favour of Andrew Balding newcomer Solar Pass.

Preference is for AMERICAN GAL, who justified support in good style on her Kempton debut last month and looks a useful prospect.

Too much to do here last time; steps up in trip here and cheekpieces tried.
9th	10 9th (10) (20/1 -25%) Petit Fusee		20 20/1(-25%)																															(10) Petit Fusee 20/1, Lightly-raced filly. Below form seventh of 12 in nursery (10/1) at Down Royal (7.1f, good to firm) 70 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Never counted latest in Down Royal nursery last month; hard to fancy on AW debut.
10th	8 10th (8) (100/1 -203%) Legendsoftheland		100 100/1(-203%)																															(8) Legendsoftheland 100/1, Visored for 1st time, below form seventh of 16 in nursery (33/1) at Gowran (7f, heavy) 25 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Cheekpieces/tongue tie now the headgear of choice. Last month's handicap debut at Gowran leaves him with plenty to find; tongue-tie tried.
11th	9 11th (9) (8/1 +20%) Bad Timing		8 8/1(+20%)																															(9) Bad Timing 8/1, Mehmas filly who showed little in trio of quick-fire maidens at up to 6f in September. Up markedly in trip for handicap debut and she's in good hands, so one to monitor in the betting for positive vibes. Three sprint turf runs in September didn't offer much; step up in trip for AW/handicap bow.
12th	3 12th (3) (9/2 +10%) Great Mover		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(3) Great Mover 9/2, Respectable third of 12 in nursery (3/1) at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft) 43 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Enters calculations. Solid turf runs at this trip of late; should be thereabouts if handling the surface.
13th	11 13th (11) (66/1 -230%) Shangar		66 66/1(-230%)																															(11) Shangar 66/1, Soldier's Call filly who again showed little on qualifying run when tenth of 12 in maiden at this course (6f, 125/1) 16 days ago, slowly away and always behind. Progress required now attentions switch to nurseries. Never sighted in three maidens; back up in trip for handicap debut and hard to fancy.

MIDNIGHT STAGGER may be able to follow up on his victory here early last month. The Galileo Gold gelding was a bit green when hitting the front then, lugging to his left in the closing stages, and was probably value for a bit more than his winning margin of half a length. He is just 3lb higher now and cheekpieces are fitted. Great Mover has been placed on her last two outings and looks like the obvious danger on her all-weather debut. Ja'marr ran well for a long way in a decent Curragh maiden last time and could be a player now off a mark of 68 on his handicap debut.

This looks wide open and it could pay to side with ADRIENNE, who looks to have been brought along with handicaps in mind and the application of a first-time visor could well put an extra edge on her. Ja'marr is another entitled to hold more chance now handicapping and is a threat. Recent course winner Midnight Stagger and Great Mover can also figure.

Recent winner Midnight Stagger and the consistent maiden Great Mover demand respect but a chance is taken on ADRIENNE

1	1 1st (1) (15/8 +25%) Eazy On The Eye		1.875 15/8(+25%)																															(1) Eazy On The Eye 15/8, Left her first 2 runs well behind when springing a 66/1 surprise over C&D 3 weeks ago. Can go well again. 66-1 win over C&D latest when she beat the two market leaders; respected under penalty.
2	6 2nd (6) (8/1 -14%) Spirit Of Jura		8 8/1(-14%)																															(6) Spirit Of Jura 8/1, 20/1, sixth of 8 in novice at Redcar (9f, heavy) on debut 18 days ago. Should have more to offer. Made a low-key start at a biggish price at Redcar and she needs plenty of progress here.
3	4 3rd (4) (7/2 +13%) Luisa		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(4) Luisa 7/2, 6/1, seventh of 10 in maiden at Leicester (1m, heavy) on debut 38 days ago. Could prove a different proposition at the second time of asking. Well held at Leicester (6-1) but that was on heavy and she could show a lot more this time.
4	7 4th (7) (7/1 +50%) Thamna		7 7/1(+50%)																															(7) Thamna 7/1, Twice-raced maiden. Went backwards from debut when seventh of 8 in novice (16/1) at Southwell (6f) 29 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Down the field in two runs on Tapeta (7f/6f) this autumn and others are preferred.
5th	2 5th (2) (33/1 -18%) Arizona Indi		33 33/1(-18%)																															(2) Arizona Indi 33/1, 28/1, eleventh of 13 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut 30 days ago. Up in trip. Didn't show much on 7f Kempton debut last month and needs to leave that form miles behind.
6th	3 6th (3) (16/1 -88%) Latona		16 16/1(-88%)																															(3) Latona 16/1, Modest form in 2 outings over 1m on heavy turf last month. Some promise when fourth on Leicester debut but she failed to build on that at Nottingham.
7th	8 7th (8) (4/1 +20%) Princess Qajar		4 4/1(+20%)																															(8) Princess Qajar 4/1, 33/1, showed ability amidst greenness when 3½ lengths fourth of 9 to Eazy On The Eye on C&D debut 3 weeks ago. May do better and meets Heather Main's charge on 7 lb better terms this time. Promising fourth behind Eazy On The Eye over C&D on recent debut and she's in the mix.
8th	9 8th (9) (20/1 +29%) Saxon Spirit		20 20/1(+29%)																															(9) Saxon Spirit 20/1, Foaled March 24. 11,000 gns Saxon Warrior half-sister to 2-y-o 5f winner Eternal Class. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 1¼m (stayed 1½m) Lady of Dubai. Yard 0-22 with 2yos this year and is best watched on debut.
5	5 |F| (5) (66/1 -32%) Sexee Eyes		66 66/1(-32%)																															(5) Sexee Eyes 66/1, Waldgeist filly. Closely related to useful 8.6f-1¼m winner Dance Jupiter and half-sister to several winners, including winner in Spain up to 1¾m Domi Go. The stable has had a first-time-out 2-y-o winner this year so worth a precautionary betting check. 8,000euros foal; yard 1-14 with 2yos this year and she could be one for later on.

Eazy On The Eye has to be respected having got off the mark over C&D three weeks ago, but a 7lb penalty could make her vulnerable. With that in mind, preference is for PRINCESS QAJAR, who was making her debut when filling fourth place that day and could improve past Eazy On The Eye on these terms. Spirit Of Jura and Thamna are others to consider.

The fact LUISA went off at only 6/1 for her Leicester debut last month suggests better was expected so it wouldn't be a surprise to see her leave that form well behind now. Recent C&D 1-4 Eazy On The Eye and Princess Qajar are unlikely to be far away.

It might be worth sticking with bEAZY ON THE EYE\p, who found plenty of progress with her front-running win over C&D three weeks ago.

1	10 1st (10) (5/1 +38%) Sunriseontheboyne		5 5/1(+38%)																															(10) Sunriseontheboyne 5/1, Off the mark at Killarney (1m) in August and shaped better than bare result when sixth of 16 in nursery (12/1) at Galway (7f, heavy) 18 days ago, finishing with running left. Worth considering back at this trip. Killarney nursery winner well held four times since; looking exposed.
2	12 2nd (12) (6/1 +33%) Your Call		6 6/1(+33%)																															(12) Your Call 6/1, Fifteenth of 16 in nursery (11/2) at Galway (7f, heavy) 18 days ago, folding tamely over 2f out. Previous Gowran second was a solid effort and bounce back rates distinctly possible. Galway run disappointing, contender on previous form if handling this surface.
3	14 3rd (14) (11/2 +31%) Movin And Groovin		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(14) Movin And Groovin 11/2, Creditable fourth of 14 in nursery at this course (6f, 9/2) 9 days ago. Significant step up in trip needs to unlock some improvement. Respectable runs in nurseries here; steps up in trip and claims if she improves for it.
4	1 4th (1) (14/1 +0%) Fairhaven		14 14/1(+0%)																															(1) Fairhaven 14/1, Ninth of 11 in nursery at this course (5f, 18/1) 21 days ago, losing place early in straight. Significantly back up in trip. Needs to get back on track. Not progressing; tries 1m for the first time and needs to improve for it.
5th	4 5th (4) (8/1 +33%) Pompano Beach		8 8/1(+33%)																															(4) Pompano Beach 8/1, Lightly-raced filly. Ran no sort of race when last of 13 on nursery debut at Sligo (5.7f, soft) in August. Absent since and she could yet have more to offer back from a break. Potential improver now upped in trip for AW debut (sister won over this trip on AW).
6th	11 6th (11) (11/1 -10%) Kitty Bear		11 11/1(-10%)																															(11) Kitty Bear 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/2, eleventh of 16 in claimer at Fairyhouse (7f, good) 53 days ago, the run best excused given where she raced. Unexposed at this trip and better showing anticipated returned to nursery company. Penultimate Down Royal third off 1lb higher puts her right in the mix.
7th	9 7th (9) (33/1 -106%) Weegeebear		33 33/1(-106%)																															(9) Weegeebear 33/1, 7/1, last of 11 in nursery at this course (5f) 21 days ago. Needs to get back on track tackling this significantly longer trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Never travelled here on latest; cheekpieces replace blinkers now.
8th	2 8th (2) (13/2 +54%) Tam Lin		6.5 13/2(+54%)																															(2) Tam Lin 13/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 25/1, seventh of 19 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip for handicap debut with cheekpieces now reached for. Upped in trip and cheekpieces fitted for AW/handicap debut; not one to rule out.
9th	8 9th (8) (28/1 -12%) Whats New		28 28/1(-12%)																															(8) Whats New 28/1, Soldier's Call colt. Little to shout about in trio of 1m maidens and significant step forward required if he's to figure on nursery debut. Penultimate Thurles run at this trip mildly encouraging; 10lb claimer's first ride.
10th	13 10th (13) (3/1 +25%) Senior Montecristo		3 3/1(+25%)																															(13) Senior Montecristo 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 14 in nursery at this course (7f, 16/1) 42 days ago. Has good chance on form. Recent third augurs well, providing he stays this extra furlong.
11th	5 11th (5) (28/1 -250%) Esque Elegance		28 28/1(-250%)																															(5) Esque Elegance 28/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 16 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, good to soft, 200/1) 41 days ago, not knocked about. Makes handicap debut and worth noting if the market spoke in her favour. Some Curragh promise but opening mark still appears on the high side for AW debut.
12th	7 12th (7) (50/1 -52%) Miss Ariana		50 50/1(-52%)																															(7) Miss Ariana 50/1, Didn't offer a great deal of promise all 3 starts in maidens at up to 1m on turf in recent months and progress required from what looks a stiff opening mark. Not too much to take from 3 runs, hard to see her having an immediate impact off this mark.

POMPANO BEACH looks of interest here off a lowly enough mark of 66 on her second handicap appearance. The Ten Sovereigns filly didn't appear to act around Sligo when last seen in August and a more galloping track should suit. She had run well at Down Royal previously when fourth in a decent enough maiden won by Wizard Of Odds, and looks nicely treated on that form. Senior Montecristo ran a big race when third here over 7f last month and, having been eased 1lb, he has to have a big shout. Your Call ran poorly on heavy ground at Galway last time but has a chance on previous form, and the quicker surface here may suit.

SUNRISEONTHEBOYNE shaped better than the bare result when sixth in a big-field nursery at Galway (7f) 18 days ago and, back at 1m/re-united with the same pilot as when successful at Killarney back in August, he could be worth siding with to build on the promise of that effort. Senior Montecristo, following his good third over 7f here 6 weeks ago, Kitty Bear and Your Call are others to consider.

If staying the extra furlong recent course third SENIOR MONTECRISTO could prove the one to beat

Latest win at Salisbury in August. 12/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Conditions to suit; feasibly weighted on form as recent as September; quiet the last twice.

Latest win here in May. 10/1, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to firm). Off 146 days. Tricky draw to contend with. Flourished in the first half of 2024, winning 5 on AW; back from a break and drawn wide.
4	11 4th (11) (16/1 -146%) Street Life		16 16/1(-146%)																															(11) Street Life 16/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 18 runs this year. Creditable second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 9/2) 15 days ago. Arrives in good order and should be on the premises again. C&D win last month and then went close at Chelmsford; respected in current form.
5th	5 5th (5) (9/1 +10%) Four Adaay		9 9/1(+10%)																															(5) Four Adaay 9/1, Latest win at Sandown in September. 7/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, heavy) 22 days ago, slowly away. Needs to bounce back. Needs to rebound from modest run latest but has good record on AW; strong pace will suit.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 -17%) Kingwood Queen		14 14/1(-17%)																															(9) Kingwood Queen 14/1, 5/1, last of 5 in handicap at Ffos Las (5f, good), hanging badly left. Off 128 days. Makes tapeta debut. First run for yard after leaving Ralph Smith. Others have achieved more. Lightly-raced 3yo; absent since last of 5 at Ffos Las in July; drawn widest on yard debut.
7th	8 7th (8) (5/1 +29%) Secret Mistral		5 5/1(+29%)																															(8) Secret Mistral 5/1, 7/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Haydock (5f, heavy) 28 days ago. Not seen to best effect last time and she's slipped to a handy mark. Front-runner; below her best the last twice but down in weights as a consequence.
8th	1 8th (1) (6/4 +40%) Strong Johnson		1.5 6/4(+40%)																															(1) Strong Johnson 6/4, 11/4, won 10-runner handicap at Newcastle (5f) 8 days ago. Likely to put up another bold showing. Made all at Newcastle last week; 1lb well in under a penalty; other pace to deal with.
9th	2 9th (2) (7/1 +18%) Miss Anya		7 7/1(+18%)																															(2) Miss Anya 7/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Catterick (5f, good to soft) 66 days ago. Others more persuasive. Well drawn to attack but an easy lead seems unlikely in this field; others appeal more.
10th	10 10th (10) (18/1 -140%) Southbank		18 18/1(-140%)																															(10) Southbank 18/1, Course winner. 3 wins from 13 runs this year. Visored for 1st time, second of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 28/1) 20 days ago. Should be on the premises. Handicapped to win and should get the strong pace he'll need at 5f; contender.

Cases can be made for most of these, but none more so than STRONG JOHNSON. The veteran returned to winning ways over 5f at Newcastle last week and a 4lb penalty may underestimate him here. Southbank hit the crossbar at Chelmsford last time and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Four Adaay and Miss Anya are others who could go very well.

SECRET MISTRAL wasn't ideally positioned last time and, back on AW, he's worth chancing from a feasible mark in an open-looking contest. Strong Johnson is a player after making all at Newcastle 8 days ago and Street Life is capable of getting involved.

Four Adaay can go well but SOUTHBANK has got himself well handicapped and this should be run to suit.

The Pat Flynn-trained TUDOR MANOR might be able to defy top-weight. Somewhat unlucky in running before staying on well to finish fifth at Navan recently, the eight-year-old is well handicapped if adapting to the surface. Although failing to reach the frame on his only two previous starts here, the gelding did shape with promise. In a winnable race, he arrives here in better form than most of his rivals. Sky Legend, whose only previous career win came in a claimer at this venue, has to enter calculations. Although well beaten here last time, that run came over a mile. Scott Lang, who showed a bit more when fourth at Navan last time, shouldn't be discounted.

SCOTT LANG rates just the pick of these weights so is taken to end a lengthy losing run at the chief expense of the in-form Tudor Manor. Inchiquin Maid and Fine Print also need considering in this tight-knit handicap.

TUDOR MANOR won over this trip on turf this year and has run well in defeat at this track so is selected.

Up 8lb for Kempton win but a repeat would see her go close to defying that rise..

Latest win at Southwell in July. 10/1, creditable sixth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 27 days ago. Not out of things. C&D winner; well below par in five starts since Southwell win; handy mark if revived..

STRAIGHT A has won twice over 7f in recent weeks and the step back up in trip should not be a problem for the three-year-old. As a result, the progressive gelding just edges out More Than A Feelin to be the pick. The latter scored at Kempton a month ago and may have more to offer. Ciotog is another with strong form claims if he can transfer his most recent turf performances to the all-weather.

MORE THAN A FEELIN boasts a progressive profile on artificial surfaces and remains on a workable mark. She gets the nod. Straight A and Ciotog both arrive in fine heart and look the likeliest dangers.

A competitive race where preference is just for STRAIGHT A, up just 2lb for winning and now going back up in trip.

TRIBAL STAR, who only weakened late on when fourth over 1m4f at the Curragh on his Irish debut, should appreciate dropping back to this trip. Runner-up twice over the distance when trained in Britain, the son of Sea The Stars looked set to play a leading role before stamina came into play last time. With the benefit of that run under his belt, he can strike here for Ado McGuinness. Realism is probably no longer as good as a mark of 92 suggests but the Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding can win races. Third on his reappearance at Killarney last month, the five-year-old was fourth at Cork over hurdles last time. Dahab is another to consider in first-time cheekpieces.

Not nearly as competitive as the numbers suggest and REALISM is fancied to gain a deserved breakthrough victory for the in-form Joseph O'Brien team. Genoah also has the form to play a part and is next on the list ahead of debutants Jessie's Dreamgirl and La Punt.

If running to his rating Realism should win but that isn't certain, so TRIBAL STAR is a viable alternative with improvement likely.

Good 2 lengths second of 10 to Cerulean Summer in handicap (11/1) at this C&D 11 days ago. Merits consideration. 6lb pull with Cerulean Summer for 2l C&D defeat latest; should again be in he mix..
4	5 4th (5) (33/1 -450%) Balqaa		33 33/1(-450%)																															(5) Balqaa 33/1, Latest win at Newcastle in September. 3/1, last of 10 in handicap at the same course (8f) 52 days ago. Subsequent mini-break was probably needed and she will be a danger to all if able to bounce back. Multiple Tapeta winner at up to 1m2f; placed over C&D; raced freely latest; competitive..

Course winner who may have finished closer with a clear run here latest; each-way player..
8th	1 8th (1) (4/1 -20%) Cerulean Summer		4 4/1(-20%)																															(1) Cerulean Summer 4/1, 11/2, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D 11 days ago by 2 lengths from Port Noir, forging clear. Shade more will be needed under a penalty but she's a big player nonetheless. Improving; latest C&D win was a career best and big chance despite her penalty.
9th	7 9th (7) (12/1 +52%) Majorelle Blue		12 12/1(+52%)																															(7) Majorelle Blue 12/1, 66/1, eighth of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 29 days ago.

CERULEAN SUMMER beat Port Noir by two lengths in this grade over track and trip earlier in the month and Morgan Cole's 5lb claim largely negates her 6lb penalty. Dylan Cunha's three-year-old might only need to produce a repeat of that performance in order to go in again. Curtiz outran his odds to finish second at Chelmsford last month and should go well off a 2lb higher mark, while Balqaa is another to note.

BALQAA's good run of form came to a halt on her latest start at Newcastle but that was her fourth run inside the space of 30 days and, following a subsequent break of almost two months, the 6-y-o is taken to get back on track with a fifth career success. Port Noir has a strong chance of reversing recent C&D placings with Cerulean Summer on these revised terms and she is feared most. Curtiz is also shortlisted.

The way she won here last time suggests that CERULEAN SUMMER (nap) remains on the up and she is taken to record another C&D success.

1	5 1st (5) (7/1 -75%) Not Just Any Eagle		7 7/1(-75%)																															(5) Not Just Any Eagle 7/1, Fairly useful gelding. 7/2, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Tipperary (12.5f, good to firm), cosily.

2	1 2nd (1) (14/1 -180%) San Andreas		14 14/1(-180%)																															(1) San Andreas 14/1, Fairly useful gelding. 6-time course winner. Ninth of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, 28/1) 7 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and he's certainly capable of a bold show. Six AW wins up to 1m but has run well over this trip; regressive this term but a player.

Makes polytrack debut. Likely to find one or two too good. Some decent maiden runs but not at her best over 1m4f last time; needs more on AW bow.
4	2 4th (2) (5/2 0%) Debora's Dream		2.5 5/2(0%)																															(2) Debora's Dream 5/2, Useful colt. 2 wins from 6 runs this year, the latest at Sandown in July. 12/1, good third of 8 in handicap at Redcar (10f, soft) 10 days ago. Shortlist material. Three wins for Roger Varian incl' on AW; fine run for this yard last time and a player.
5th	4 5th (4) (14/1 -155%) Acotango		14 14/1(-155%)																															(4) Acotango 14/1, Fairly useful gelding. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Creditable second of 12 in claimer (10/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. Shouldn't be far away. Sole win from 16 starts came on AW; just denied in a C&D claimer last time; considered.
6th	6 6th (6) (80/1 -100%) Effernock Fizz		80 80/1(-100%)																															(6) Effernock Fizz 80/1, Fair mare. Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. 25/1, last of 12 in handicap at Ballinrobe (13f, good). Off 144 days. Cheekpieces back on. Looks vulnerable. Tough and talented dual-purpose mare but has never won on AW and best watched on return.
7th	3 7th (3) (5/4 +58%) Persian Bliss		1.25 5/4(+58%)																															(3) Persian Bliss 5/4, Won 14-runner maiden (14/1) at this C&D on debut 21 days ago. This is tougher but he's completely unexposed. Showed a good attitude to win over C&D on debut and should be a player with more to come.

PERSIAN BLISS, a winner on his racecourse debut over course and distance last month, has the potential to improve further. A son of Advertise, the colt was reluctant to load but did nothing wrong once the stalls opened. In beating a solid yardstick for the grade, the Adrian Murray-trained three-year-old hinted at better to come. UK raider Debora's Dream has to be respected for Jennie Candlish. The booking of champion jockey Colin Keane on the three-time winner certainly suggests that connections mean business. A multiple winner at this track, San Andreas has yet to convince over this extended trip but it would be a mistake for the others to give the veteran too much leeway out in front.

PERSIAN BLISS belied market weakness when making a winning start to his career in a C&D maiden three weeks ago and, with the promise of better to come from this colt, he is taken to maintain his 100% record. The consistent Debora's Dream is feared most ahead of Acotango and Not Just Any Eagle.

Though he had a tough enough race when winning on debut over C&D, PERSIAN BLISS showed a likeable attitude and can win again.

1	3 1st (3) (5/4 +44%) Western Stars		1.25 5/4(+44%)																															(3) Western Stars 5/4, Won over this sort of trip at Newbury in July and arrives on back of creditable fourth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 8/1) 11 days ago, not knocked about. Likely contender. 4lb lower than for a turf win in July; mixed since but the booking of Rossa Ryan is a plus.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/1 -11%) Green Team		5 5/1(-11%)																															(4) Green Team 5/1, Below par over longer trip here latest but had made the frame in 4 consecutive starts previously and warrants respect. On a long losing run but this year's best gives him sound claims; easy lead possible.

Below par over longer trip latest but better expected here. Three wins over shorter this year; dropping back from 2m looks a good move.

Competing off 3lb below his last winning mark and with his stamina more proven than some, WESTERN STARS is a key player. The Jim Boyle-trained gelding merits respect at this level and, with the in-form Rossa Ryan back in the saddle, there are solid foundation for another big run. Trojan Truth is weighted to go close, although Green Team is undoubtedly well handicapped based on past exploits and also needs serious consideration.

Preference is for WESTERN STARS, who is in better heart than his recent form figures suggest and will appreciate the return to this longer trip. Trojan Truth rates the principal danger.

Western Stars is respected with Rossa Ryan booked but GREEN TEAM could enjoy a soft lead and he may be able to end his losing run.

Previous effort at Navan wasn't devoid of encouragement by any means and the return to this longer trip may well help. Well beaten in four maidens and not much better in two handicaps.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/2 -29%) Dancing Steve		4.5 9/2(-29%)																															(7) Dancing Steve 9/2, Winner at Tipperary in September. Good second of 14 in handicap (11/4) at this C&D 9 days ago, headed close home and no extra. Entitled to be in the mix again. Won at Tipperary and solid over C&D the last twice; up 2lb but considered again.

Fitting of first-time blinkers needs to have positive effect here. Disappointing in handicaps over 1m4f here the last twice; blinkers need to eke out more.
7th	6 7th (6) (10/1 +29%) Wing Glider		10 10/1(+29%)																															(6) Wing Glider 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, creditable sixth of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, soft) 24 days ago, never nearer. Makes polytrack debut. Some ability in maidens and not a bad h'cap debut last time; considered on AW bow.
8th	1 8th (1) (22/1 -57%) Harbour Gem		22 22/1(-57%)																															(1) Harbour Gem 22/1, Blinkered for 1st time, eighth of 18 in handicap at Galway (8.3f, heavy, 20/1) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Holds good claims on his early-season form but recent efforts hardly inspiring. Won a 1m2f maiden at Cork back in May for Dermot Weld but has been well below that since.
9th	9 9th (9) (50/1 -52%) Small Bucks		50 50/1(-52%)																															(9) Small Bucks 50/1, 25/1, bit below form 8¾ lengths eighth of 15 to Special Angel in handicap at Tipperary (9f, good) 75 days ago, never better than midfield.

Acquired by new connections for €14,000 in August and interesting where she figures in the betting now handicapping. Wide margin winner of a 1m2f maiden in Germany this summer; could be well-handicapped.

Denied by the narrowest of margins on his last visit here, KONIAG can gain some compensation. A winner on turf at Leopardstown earlier in the year, the Kieran Cotter-trained gelding has twice finished runner-up on the Polytrack. Despite being raised 2lb for his recent defeat, the three-year-old looks nicely handicapped. Colin Keane, who rode a four-timer here last week, is a significant booking. Dancing Steve, another who has strong recent placed form at this track, looks a live threat. The Ado McGuinness-trained gelding has the aid of Adam Caffrey's valuable claim. Poyraz Approach, a winner on her final start in Germany, is an intriguing contender on her stable debut for Matthew Smith.

KONIAG and Dancing Steve have both been knocking firmly on the door in recent months and may be the pair to fight this out, the former shading the vote under Colin Keane. Ex-German filly Poyraz Approach would also look interesting if the market spoke in her favour now handicapping for her new stable.

CASTLEHEATH showed a bit of spark over 1m here last time and the step-up in trip with blinkers could see him win again.

1	1 1st (1) (9/1 +36%) Jax Edge		9 9/1(+36%)																															(1) Jax Edge 9/1, Last of 10 in handicap at this C&D (20/1) 11 days ago. Wouldn't be without each-way hope if reproducing the form of her penultimate start but others are more convincing overall. Of interest on this year's best form and had an excuse here latest; well drawn to attack.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/4 +44%) Runaround Sioux		2.25 9/4(+44%)																															(3) Runaround Sioux 9/4, 4/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) when last seen 7 months ago. Entitled to come on for the run. 6f win at Chelmsford on h'cap debut in Feb; not so good since; returns from 7 months off.
3	2 3rd (2) (9/2 +68%) Rapido Girl		4.5 9/2(+68%)																															(2) Rapido Girl 9/2, Winner of a 7f Catterick maiden in June. 12/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good) 70 days ago. Needs to get back on track now switched to tapeta. 7f win at Catterick in June; below par the last twice; down in trip and making AW debut.
4	9 4th (9) (17/2 +39%) Dazitoo		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(9) Dazitoo 17/2, 9/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Back down in trip for this tapeta debut and others are more persuasive. Not built on an encouraging debut; drops in trip with enough to prove.
5th	5 5th (5) (14/1 -17%) Little Miss Magic		14 14/1(-17%)																															(5) Little Miss Magic 14/1, Winner at Bath in August. Ninth of 11 in handicap (33/1) at Newmarket (5f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Back up in trip and will be in with a fighting chance if she puts her best foot forward. On a winning mark but she needs to bounce back from a couple of modest efforts.
6th	6 6th (6) (13/2 -63%) Unico		6.5 13/2(-63%)																															(6) Unico 13/2, 22/1, very good second of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 43 days ago. Remains on a good mark nudged up 1 lb and she's one for the shortlist. Knocking at the door of late and she looks a strong contender back against her own sex.
7th	10 7th (10) (15/2 -15%) White Mist		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(10) White Mist 15/2, C&D winner. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 7/1) when last seen in June. Boasts a good record on the AW and she's a live contender. Three AW wins last winter, two over C&D; on a fair mark but returning from a break.
8th	4 8th (4) (20/1 -100%) American Fashion		20 20/1(-100%)																															(4) American Fashion 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 76 days ago. Back up in trip for this tapeta debut/first run for new connections. Others preferred. Weak finisher from 5f to 7f for the Gosdens; still low mileage; stable debut.
9th	8 9th (8) (12/1 +14%) Starsong		12 12/1(+14%)																															(8) Starsong 12/1, C&D winner. 12/1, fifth of 6 in handicap back here 21 days ago. Cheekpieces refitted and while she's not without hope, one or two of these are more appealing from a win point of view. C&D win off this mark in February; sharper for recent return; yard having quiet autumn.
10th	7 10th (7) (14/1 -40%) Soldiers Design		14 14/1(-40%)																															(7) Soldiers Design 14/1, Winner at Brighton in April. Last of 4 in handicap (11/4) at Bath (5f, good to firm) 72 days ago. Back up in trip and she will probably find one or two too good. Yet to land a serious blow in three runs for new yard; return to 6f could help.

RUNAROUND SIOUX won a similar race at Chelmsford in February and, having missed most of the turf season, appeals off just 2lb higher. Her ability to truly handle Tapeta is still the only slight query in an otherwise solid case for support. Unico has held her form well and has a good chance of at least running into a place. All-weather debutant Rapido Girl is bred to be effective on synthetics and also needs a betting check.

The vote goes to UNICO, who has found her feet for this yard in recent months and her latest second at Chelmsford arguably represented a career-best. White Mist's record on the all-weather is strong and she will be a big threat if fully tuned-up following a break, while Little Miss Magic is best of the rest.

Jax Edge is better than she showed last time but UNICO looks primed to strike and can gain a first win for this yard.

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.
