1	8 1st (8) (9/4 +55%) Moonlight Artist		2.25 9/4(+55%)																															(8) Moonlight Artist 9/4, Failing to improve for a switch to handicap company over 18.5f here last month but it is still very early days for this 5-y-o from an in-form yard and perhaps the step up in trip will unlock some improvement. Poor so far but being unexposed over this longer distance heightens interest.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 -82%) Raddon Top		5 5/1(-82%)																															(1) Raddon Top 5/1, Landed hat-trick of handicap hurdles here at the start of 2022 and added a course chase success early this year. Ended last season with a couple of below-par runs but on a workable mark back hurdling on reappearance. Considered. Capable off this mark but had lost his way when last seen in the spring.
3	7 3rd (7) (13/2 +46%) Karakoram		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(7) Karakoram 13/2, Seemed well suited by the step up to 3m when resuming winning ways at Taunton in March. Not in the same form since, including 2 starts this term, but back on a winning mark so dangerous to dismiss. Below par in two runs after a break but he's usually reliable.
4	9 4th (9) (8/1 -60%) Elfride		8 8/1(-60%)																															(9) Elfride 8/1, Improved to win a 23f Uttoxeter handicap in May. Unseated back there later in the month. Has to race from 8 lb out of handicap here but still no surprise were he to have a say. In winning form when last seen in the spring and further progress is possible.
6	6 |U| (6) (11/1 -214%) Lady Wilberry		11 11/1(-214%)																															(6) Lady Wilberry 11/1, Runner-up in handicap chases for Keiran Burke in the spring. Reverts to hurdles for new yard after 6 months off. Chance if able to resume where she left off back in May when going close in a 3m2f chase.
2	2 |PU| (2) (10/3 +45%) Lucky So And So		3.333333 10/3(+45%)																															(2) Lucky So And So 10/3, Promise in 3 novice hurdles at the start of 2022. Pulled up on Warwick handicap debut 9 months later but did win in the pointing field this spring. Defienitely one of the more interesting runners. Has been running well in points and this mark looks fair on his 2022 novice efforts.
4	4 |PU| (4) (10/1 +38%) Caspers Court		10 10/1(+38%)																															(4) Caspers Court 10/1, Won back to back around 21f at Wincanton and Exeter at the start of 2023 but has failed to hit the same heights since. Well handicapped again but whether he's in good enough form to capitalise remains to be seen. Form has suffered a marked dip since winning consecutive 2m5f hurdles early this year.
5	5 |PU| (5) (33/1 +0%) College Oak		33 33/1(+0%)																															(5) College Oak 33/1, Has struggled since a handicap hurdle win at Stratford in summer 2022, faring no better back hurdling here last time. Returning to further is no bad thing but he's lost his way.
3	3 |PU| (3) (66/1 -560%) Ballinslea Bridge		66 66/1(-560%)																															(3) Ballinslea Bridge 66/1, Won a Market Rasen handicap chase last December. Failed to complete on 4 of his 5 subsequent starts last season but he did finish second at Wincanton when he did get round. Reverts to hurdles on reappearance. Last win was last December over fences off a similar mark; current wellbeing a grey area.
10	10 |PU| (10) (80/1 -142%) Menapian		80 80/1(-142%)																															(10) Menapian 80/1, Poor maiden hurdler who got back on track when third at Taunton in first-time blinkers last December but off since a lesser run back there later that month. Has placed form but he's a longstanding maiden and competing from 14lb out of the weights.

LTO Selection:

ELFRIDE was a winner at Uttoxeter on her penultimate start in May before unseating her rider at the same venue later that month. In a contest where most of her rivals have something to prove, the daughter of Black Sam Bellamy receives the tentative vote. Lady Wilberry was performing with credit over fences in the spring and commands respect, while Lucky So And So benefited from racing in the pointing field earlier in the year and is of interest back under Rules.

In a contest where few arrive with compelling claims a chance is taken on the fitness of RADDON TOP who knows where the winning post is over hurdles here and was also successful over fences at this venue off a higher mark last season. Moonlight Artist has a much less-exposed profile than most of these and that earns him a place on the shortlist along with Lucky So And So.

All of these come with risks. LUCKY SO AND SO is one of the least exposed runners and he might not be on a bad mark.

1	2 1st (2) (2/5 +40%) Majestic Jameela		0.4 2/5(+40%)																															(2) Majestic Jameela 2/5, Modest maiden on Flat who has been placed on all 4 starts in juvenile hurdles. Very much the one to beat unless the betting vibes are notably strong surrounding one of the hurdle debutantes. Has form figures of 2323 over hurdles; holds leading claims in this weak race.
2	5 2nd (5) (6/1 +63%) Ruler Of The River		6 6/1(+63%)																															(5) Ruler Of The River 6/1, Just a modest maiden on the Flat in Ireland for Jack Davison. Tongue tie reached for now hurdling for new connections. Check the betting. Weak contender on her Irish Flat form; needs to improve for new scenario.
3	3 3rd (3) (20/1 -25%) Rebecca West		20 20/1(-25%)																															(3) Rebecca West 20/1, Modest form on Flat and hasn't achieved much in 2 hurdle starts for new yard this month, beaten 23 lengths when fourth of 11 at Wincanton latterly. Has something to find on Flat and hurdles form.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 -167%) Royal Toast		12 12/1(-167%)																															(4) Royal Toast 12/1, Fair form in pair of maidens on the Flat in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien. New connections acquired him for 10,000 gns last month. Starts out over hurdles in an ordinary race. Showed promise in two Flat maidens for Joseph O'Brien; unexposed; possibilities.
1	1 |PU| (1) (15/2 -114%) Bubblecraft		7.5 15/2(-114%)																															(1) Bubblecraft 15/2, Fair at up to 13f on the Flat in France, winning a claimer when last seen in July. Betting should guide now hurdling. Off the mark in Dax claimer on final Flat outing in France; interesting contender.

LTO Selection:

---

Stuart Edmunds won this race in 2017 and 2020 and he has strong claims again courtesy of MAJESTIC JAMEELA, who has been placed on all four hurdle starts to date and this looks a little easier than the 2m Ludlow event in which she was a respectable third off this mark last month. Bubblecraft cost 21,000gns after winning on the level in France and has to be of interest for Michael Wigham, especially if the market vibes are positive. Royal Toast was an expensive yearling who didn't pull up any trees in two starts on the level but could improve now tried over obstacles.

This looks a good chance for MAJESTIC JAMEELA to get off the mark over hurdles at the fifth time of asking. The chief threat may come from Tony Carroll's Royal Toast.

Bubblecraft and Royal Toast are interesting hurdles debutantes. MAJESTIC JAMEELA is the pick on hurdles form as things stand.

1	5 1st (5) (5/6 +72%) Saligo Bay		0.833333 5/6(+72%)																															(5) Saligo Bay 5/6, Won 2m Lingfield handicap hurdle last November and also scored on the Flat at Windsor in May. Creditable third in 2m Huntingdon claimer back hurdling 15 days ago. Should go well. Four wins divided between the Flat/hurdling; solid run in claiming company at Huntingdon.
2	2 2nd (2) (20/1 +43%) Canford Light		20 20/1(+43%)																															(2) Canford Light 20/1, Won 21f Ludlow novice on debut for this yard in October 2021 but little to shout about since, albeit he might be sharper for his recent return from a long absence. Cheekpieces go on. Cheekpieces tried having lost his way badly; too much to prove.
3	6 3rd (6) (66/1 +18%) Saved By The River		66 66/1(+18%)																															(6) Saved By The River 66/1, Not the easiest to catch right and ran poorly again at Hereford last time. 16-race maiden under rules and he's up against it on these terms.
4	4 4th (4) (15/2 +6%) Laser Focus		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(4) Laser Focus 15/2, A fair maiden hurdler for Henry De Bromhead but below that level in his 3 outings for Alexandra Dunn. Thereabouts if able to shrug off last week's disappointing run in a selling handicap.
3	3 |F| (3) (7/4 -40%) Hiaou		1.75 7/4(-40%)																															(3) Hiaou 7/4, Fairly useful hurdler at best for Gordon Elliott in Ireland. Left that yard after disappointing on his chase debut in March. Could be a cut above dropped into a seller for new yard. Tongue tied first time. Became disappointing in Ireland but Chris Gordon could turn him around.

LTO Selection:

---

This represent a big drop in class for HIAOU on his debut for Chris Gordon after the six-year-old was well beaten in a competitive Leopardstown contest on his chasing bow for Gordon Elliott in the spring. He is well clear on official ratings as he reverts to hurdles and may prove too strong for Saligo Bay, who finished a long way clear of the third when runner-up in a selling handicap hurdle earlier in the month. Laser Focus is another to consider.

If HIAOU still retains anything like the ability he showed at his best in Ireland he's the one beat on his first start for Chris Gordon. Saligo Bay is the one likely to capitalise should the selection fail to deliver.

Hiaou has the highest rating but lost his way badly in Ireland. SALIGO BAY rates the safer bet after his good run at Huntingdon.

1	2 1st (2) (1/2 +50%) Gidleigh Park		0.5 1/2(+50%)																															(2) Gidleigh Park 1/2, From a good family and looked a nice prospect when taking a Chepstow bumper on debut in March. Likely type. Won comfortably on debut in Chepstow bumper and he's a strong candidate now hurdling.
2	9 2nd (9) (4/1 +43%) Range		4 4/1(+43%)																															(9) Range 4/1, Fair form in bumpers last season. One to consider now hurdling under Sam Twiston-Davies. Showed promise in bumpers; could be in the shake-up for in-form yard on hurdle debut.
3	10 3rd (10) (12/1 -260%) Salt Rock		12 12/1(-260%)																															(10) Salt Rock 12/1, Cost £205,000 after winning his only point in March. Has had wind surgery and wears a tongue tie on this hurdle debut. Very interesting runner. Tailed off in bumper but impressed in point in 2022; remains of interest for in-form yard.
4	4 4th (4) (50/1 -25%) Koenigsstern		50 50/1(-25%)																															(4) Koenigsstern 50/1, Dual winning pointer, fell last time (April 10). Betting should provide a guide as to what's anticipated from him on Rules debut. Comfortably won two British points earlier this year; brings potential to this rules debut.
5th	8 5th (8) (200/1 -100%) Rangatira Jack		200 200/1(-100%)																															(8) Rangatira Jack 200/1, Offered little encouragement in 2 bumpers in the spring. Down the field at big odds on his two bumpers in the spring and he'd be a surprise winner.
6th	13 6th (13) (300/1 -20%) Wellwillya		300 300/1(-20%)																															(13) Wellwillya 300/1, No impact in 5 starts over hurdles, including low-grade handicaps. Has shown little across his seven starts and is hard to fancy.
7th	3 7th (3) (18/1 +28%) Jumper Madrik		18 18/1(+28%)																															(3) Jumper Madrik 18/1, €80,000 Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser in France Hyde Madrik. Dam unraced half-sister to smart French chaser (stayed 2¾m) Dream Wish. The betting should help guide to expectations with this newcomer. Half-brother to French 2m1f-2m5f hurdle/chase winner; market could be informative on debut.
8th	11 8th (11) (12/1 -85%) Samazul		12 12/1(-85%)																															(11) Samazul 12/1, Half-brother to numerous winners and won one of his 3 bumper starts last season. Should be up to making presence felt in a race like this now hurdling. Bumper winner who has a useful pedigree and is a nice prospect for hurdles.
9th	14 9th (14) (300/1 -20%) Fox Wallace		300 300/1(-20%)																															(14) Fox Wallace 300/1, Tailed off in a bumper and 2 hurdles. Tailed off at big odds on all three rules starts.
10th	7 10th (7) (25/1 +0%) Mr Hope Street		25 25/1(+0%)																															(7) Mr Hope Street 25/1, From a top stable but only modest form in 2 bumpers/hurdles and looks more one for handicaps after this. Not ruled out each-way but his limitations may well be exposed once more.
11th	12 11th (12) (33/1 -175%) Thurley		33 33/1(-175%)																															(12) Thurley 33/1, Well held on bumper debut in March but hinted at promise when 18 lengths fourth of 15 in Wincanton maiden hurdle 7 months later. Open to improvement. Took a step in the right direction on recent hurdle debut and he's an each-way possible.
5	5 |PU| (5) (10/1 -54%) Man Of My Dreams		10 10/1(-54%)																															(5) Man Of My Dreams 10/1, Cost £100,000 after placing in 2 points and shaped well when second of 9 in a Huntingdon bumper in April. Kielan Woods on yard's other runner but this one is also of interest now hurdling. Fitted with a tongue tie. Point/bumper runner-up; could have a part to play on hurdle debut.
1	1 |PU| (1) (250/1 -150%) Azolo		250 250/1(-150%)																															(1) Azolo 250/1, 150/1, well held in bumper at Chepstow on debut 20 days ago. Can only watch after that. British point runner-up but tailed off at 150-1 on recent bumper debut at Chepstow.

LTO Selection:

---

GIDLEIGH PARK made an impressive start to his career when landing a Chepstow bumper in March and the form has since been franked by the runner-up, who won both a bumper and a maiden hurdle at Ffos Las in taking style. The five-year-old is expected to take high rank as a novice hurdler and this appears to be a nice starting point. Range performed with credit in a couple of bumpers last season, most notably when runner-up on debut at Chepstow, and he is respected along with Samazul, a winner at Southwell in December.

An interesting race. GIDLEIGH PARK created a good impression in a bumper last spring and is preferred to expensive point recruit Salt Rock. Range and Ben Pauling pair Samazul and Man of My Dreams achieved enough in bumpers to think they can also make their mark in a race like this.

The Harry Fry-trained GIDLEIGH PARK impressed on his debut in a bumper at Chepstow in March and earns the vote now hurdling.

1	6 1st (6) (16/5 +47%) Everything'sontick		3.2 16/5(+47%)																															(6) Everything'sontick 16/5, Chepstow maiden hurdle winner showed lots to like when runner-up after a wind-op and a year off at Plumpton in March. Went wrong way in following 2 outings, but has the physique for chasing and could get back on track. Lightly raced hurdler; poor run last time but could get back on track now chasing.
2	5 2nd (5) (6/1 -50%) Animal		6 6/1(-50%)																															(5) Animal 6/1, As good as ever when winning at Kempton in March. Found to have bled on next start at Market Rasen, which has to be a concern, but prior form gives him a chance in this company. Remote fourth at Market Rasen in April; not discounted back after a break now.
3	7 3rd (7) (7/2 +30%) Spago		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(7) Spago 7/2, Placed on all 3 runs over hurdles and showed some aptitude when fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Kempton (18f, good) on debut over fences 29 days ago. Entitled to progress as a chaser, especially now faced with more suitable test. Encouraging fourth on chasing debut at Kempton; player with longer trip promising to suit.
4	2 4th (2) (20/1 -186%) Oscar Robertson		20 20/1(-186%)																															(2) Oscar Robertson 20/1, Very easy winner at Wetherby in November 2021 and finished runner-up twice subsequently that season. Missed all of last term and has left Tom George, so market can prove guide. Off for 19 months since pulled up at Perth; market can guide on yard debut.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/2 -38%) Track And Trace		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(8) Track And Trace 11/2, Placed in an Irish point and got off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt when scoring at Warwick in September. Not in same form at Cheltenham last time but remains one to be positive about quickly sent chasing. Won at Warwick in September; worth considering sent over fences in first-time cheekpieces.
6th	1 6th (1) (3/1 -9%) One True King		3 3/1(-9%)																															(1) One True King 3/1, Remains well treated on his best form and arrives after a pair of sound efforts, staying on from a long way back when sixth of 19 in handicap chase at Cheltenham (25f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Player. In good nick, ending up with a lot to do when sixth at Cheltenham latest; likely player.
7th	4 7th (4) (9/1 +55%) Milan Bridge		9 9/1(+55%)																															(4) Milan Bridge 9/1, Looked a good prospect when scoring 3 times over hurdles in 2021/22 campaign but was majorly disappointing over fences last time and failed to revive for new yard at Huntingdon 3 weeks ago. Well-held fourth at Huntingdon on his yard debut after a wind op; others appeal more.

LTO Selection:

---

ONE TRUE KING returns to this venue for the first time since landing a novice hurdle nearly three years ago and there is plenty to like about his chances, representing the in-form Nigel Twiston-Davies yard and he ran well in defeat off this mark in a better contest at Cheltenham last month. His match-fitness could give him the edge over Animal, who has strong claims on the form of his impressive 3m Kempton victory in March but Suzy Smith's charge hasn't raced since April. A winner over hurdles in September, the Jonjo O'Neill-trained Track And Trace receives weight all round on his handicap/chasing debut and a bold bid would come as no surprise.

SPAGO appeals as the sort to make a better chaser and should find the anticipated improvement with this markedly longer trip looking in his favour. One True King has been running well in tougher company recently and should prove capable of giving another good account, with chase-newcomer Track And Trace also interesting.

Fergal O'Brien's SPAGO made a promising start in this sphere when fourth at Kempton and gets the vote now his stamina is drawn out more.

1	4 1st (4) (11/4 +17%) Brave Kingdom		2.75 11/4(+17%)																															(4) Brave Kingdom 11/4, Useful hurdler who was always in control as he won 19f Taunton novice when last seen 23 months ago. Very much the type to make a better chaser for top yard, though does return from a very long absence here after another wind op. His only defeat over hurdles came in a Grade 2 and he's potentially on a good mark.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 -67%) General Medrano		2.5 5/2(-67%)																															(1) General Medrano 5/2, Fairly useful hurdler who has done even better over fences this season, making it 2-2 in this sphere in 2m Huntingdon handicap 3 weeks ago. 9 lb rise to overcome and has stamina to prove but got to be respected as an improving sort. Up in the weights but he's jumped well in winning two small-field handicap chases.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/4 +50%) Martator		2.75 11/4(+50%)																															(5) Martator 11/4, Placed in Grade 1 hurdles at Auteuil in 2021 for Joel Boisnard but has found it a struggle for new yard, easy to back and looking very rusty reverted to this sphere after 6 months off at Aintree (jumped badly). Down another 5 lb and could fare better back up in trip here. His Aintree run was quite encouraging given the number of mistakes he made.
4	3 4th (3) (11/2 -22%) Ree Okka		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(3) Ree Okka 11/2, Irish point winner who landed 2 novice hurdles at up to 24.5f in 2021-22. Shaped up well without success over fences last season and that experience won't be lost on him. Can lack concentration at times but the ability is there to win off this mark.
2	2 |PU| (2) (13/2 -8%) Hermino Aa		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(2) Hermino Aa 13/2, Dual hurdles winner last term (including here), showing some quirks once in front but far too good for his rivals at Warwick (19f) final start in March. Easy to back on chase debut at Ascot a fortnight ago and made an inauspiscious start, unseating at the first. Retains potential. Dual hurdle winner; departed at the first when 15-2 for his chase debut at Ascot.

LTO Selection:

---

GENERAL MEDRANO has relished the switch to larger obstacles and made it 2-2 over fences when taking a 7lb rise in his stride to win well at Huntingdon three weeks ago. Emma Lavelle's gelding has gone up another 9lb for that victory but remains on an upward curve and this step up in trip could unlock further improvement. Brave Kingdom has won two of his three starts over hurdles and is interesting on his handicap debut for Paul Nicholls, but it is nearly two years since we have seen him on a racecourse. The lack of a recent run also tempers enthusiasm for Ree Okka, but he mixed it in good company last season and must be respected.

MARTATOR lurks on a very tempting mark (23 lb lower than when starting out for the yard) and could be set for a big run if building on his Aintree comeback and jumping better. General Medrano is feared most in his hat-trick bid but fair cases can be made for the other trio.

All five have chances but the suggestion is REE OKKA, who ran well in three of his four chases last season.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 -113%) King Turgeon		4 4/1(-113%)																															(1) King Turgeon 4/1, Ex-French gelding got off the mark on second start for this yard at Fontwell in March. Shaped most encouragingly when finishing clear of rest with a thriving rival at Chepstow on return and he makes plenty of appeal. Bumped into rejuvenated winner when clear second on recent reappearance at Chepstow.
2	7 2nd (7) (15/2 -15%) No Hubs No Hoobs		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(7) No Hubs No Hoobs 15/2, Off the mark at Wincanton (25.1f) on Boxing Day but wasn't able to build on that run in his 3 subsequent starts, beaten a long way when third here in April. However, has gone well fresh previously and shouldn't be fully ruled out for in-form yard. Inconsistent last term but reappears with yard in fine form and he's a contender.
3	9 3rd (9) (9/2 +31%) Leissieres Express		4.5 9/2(+31%)																															(9) Leissieres Express 9/2, Hasn't been the easiest to train but bettered his hurdles form when second of 9 in handicap chase at Wincanton (20.2f, soft) on debut over fences 22 days ago. Wouldn't be guaranteed to go the right way from that promising effort but has to be respected nonetheless. Promising second on chase debut at Wincanton and could continue to progress over fences.
4	5 4th (5) (4/1 +67%) Moorland Rambler		4 4/1(+67%)																															(5) Moorland Rambler 4/1, Appreciated the test of stamina when winning a 17f handicap hurdle here in January. Bit below that level when fourth of 6 in handicap chase at this course (19.2f, soft) on debut over fences 27 days ago but may do better up further in trip. Untested at this trip but it's worth a go and sole win over hurdles came here; interesting.
5th	4 5th (4) (8/1 -78%) Imperial Joe		8 8/1(-78%)																															(4) Imperial Joe 8/1, Most consistent last season, winning early in the campaign at Newton Abbot before a pair of later wins at Taunton. Did come on from his return last year but would hold sound claims if ready to roll here after 6-months off. Two 2m7f wins last season after being upped in trip; could have more to offer this term.
6th	11 6th (11) (12/1 +64%) Tudors Treasure		12 12/1(+64%)																															(11) Tudors Treasure 12/1, Three-time winner at this track but hasn't scored since 2021 and is generally proving more miss than hit at this advanced stage of his career. Not the easiest to make a case for. Three-time course winner but this 12yo ran well just once last season; out of the handicap.
7th	6 7th (6) (33/1 +0%) Mormon		33 33/1(+0%)																															(6) Mormon 33/1, Sole win to his name came over hurdles on New Years' Day 2019 and form since joining this yard from Henry de Bromhead has been patchy. Others preferred. Reappears having had wind op but last season's form was patchy; others are more compelling.
8th	10 8th (10) (40/1 -100%) Valirann Gold		40 40/1(-100%)																															(10) Valirann Gold 40/1, Much improved wehn scoring over 2m at Chepstow in January and hasn't quite been in the same form since, albeit facing a stiff task from out of the weights at Warwick last time. Others make more appeal. Won over 2m in January but there are questions marks regarding stamina and current form.
9th	8 9th (8) (6/1 +40%) My Girl Katie		6 6/1(+40%)																															(8) My Girl Katie 6/1, Irish point winner showed fair form over hurdles last term, though hasn't convinced in a pair of outings over fences so far, making mistakes when fourth of 8 in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, good) 14 days ago. Needs to step forward. Well handicapped on hurdle form but needs to better what she's shown on her two chase runs.
3	3 |F| (3) (25/1 -233%) Behind The Curtain		25 25/1(-233%)																															(3) Behind The Curtain 25/1, Fair maiden hurdler in 2020 for Philip Rothwell. Left that yard for €20,000 and can only be watched sent chasing after 3-year absence. Huge absence to defy on chase debut but given chance by handicapper; market check advised.
2	2 |PU| (2) (12/1 -20%) Captain Tommy		12 12/1(-20%)																															(2) Captain Tommy 12/1, Slipped in the weights before winning at Bangor and Worcester during the summer and wasn't disgraced from a 3 lb higher mark at Fontwell (26f, good) 45 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Won at Worcester in August but well beaten the next twice and needs to bounce back.

LTO Selection:

King Turgeon found only a revitalised rival too strong on last month's seasonal return and he merits respect following a 4lb rise in the handicap, but preference is for LEISSIERES EXPRESS. Jeremy Scott's charge stayed on well over 2m4f at Wincanton 22 days ago, finishing second on his first start over fences, so today's step up in trip could see him in an even better light. Moorland Rambler is also noted.

KING TURGEON pulled well clear with a race-fit and in-form rival on return at Chepstow, and with the same claimer retaining the partnership, is fancied to go one better this time. Leissieres Express showed improved from on chase debut at Wincanton and also merits respect, whilst No Hubs No Hoobs has slipped back towards his last winning mark and isn't discounted given his decent record after a break.

The 5yo KING TURGEON (nap) bumped into the rejuvenated Eceparti when a clear second at Chepstow and can go one better here.

1	6 1st (6) (13/8 +71%) Passing Kate		1.625 13/8(+71%)																															(6) Passing Kate 13/8, Has made a positive start for in-form yard this season, going through the race as if ahead of her mark at Stratford recently. Dropped another 2 lb and could be worth chancing. Has shown promise for new yard; fifth of 16 at Stratford 18 days ago; player off 2lb lower.
2	1 2nd (1) (2/1 -14%) Crem Fresh		2 2/1(-14%)																															(1) Crem Fresh 2/1, Hasn't stood much racing to date but ran her rivals ragged under an aggressive ride after 8 months off at Fakenham (20f) last week. Obvious claims under a penalty if she's come out of that okay. Off 8 months before landing Fakenham h'cap; major player turned out under a 7lb penalty.
3	2 3rd (2) (6/1 -71%) Stamina Chope		6 6/1(-71%)																															(2) Stamina Chope 6/1, Has returned over hurdles in good form, the emphasis on speed probably helping as she took a 25f Plumpton handicap from a subsequent winner 4 weeks ago. Back up 5 lb and this massive drop in trip doesn't look to be in her favour. Off the mark in this sphere at Plumpton latest; up 5lb but she can go well again.
4	5 4th (5) (8/1 +76%) Damask		8 8/1(+76%)																															(5) Damask 8/1, Poor form over hurdles, well held again in Warwick handicap on recent return (lost a shoe). Hard to fancy. Failed to kick on since handicapping; well-held fifth at Warwick; needs a big step forward.
5th	3 5th (3) (15/2 -233%) Aviewofthestars		7.5 15/2(-233%)																															(3) Aviewofthestars 15/2, Two from 2 since joining Fergal O'Brien, following up her Plumpton success back down at 2m at Worcester 6 weeks ago, despite conceding first run to plenty. Has moved yards again (£7,000 buy) and respected in hat-trick bid. Improved for Fergal O'Brien when scoring at Plumpton/Worcester; in the mix for new yard.
6th	4 6th (4) (33/1 -175%) Sawpit Samantha		33 33/1(-175%)																															(4) Sawpit Samantha 33/1, Down the field in bumper/all 3 starts over hurdles. Her mark looks a stiff one now handicapping after 8 months off but she could improve. Brought along steadily in three runs over hurdles last term; may do better now in h'caps.

LTO Selection:

---

CREM FRESH made a winning return to action at Fakenham last Monday in comfortable fashion and the mare is unlikely to have any issue with carrying a 7lb penalty, despite the fact she drops back in trip. Aviewofthestars bids for a hat-trick of victories on her first start for Stella Barclay, while any market support for Sawpit Samantha on her handicap debut would make her of interest.

There is a strong suspicion PASSING KATE is ahead of her mark and she's worth chancing. Crem Fresh is an obvious player if she's come out well from last week's Fakenham win when returning from another long absence. Aviewofthestars has moved yards again since her Worcester success but has to be respected in her hat-trick bid.

It is worth siding with PASSING KATE, who caught the eye when a strong-travelling Stratford fifth and can capitalise on a lenient mark.

1	5 1st (5) (13/2 +54%) Birdman Bob		6.5 13/2(+54%)																															(5) Birdman Bob 13/2, Offered something to work on when fourth on his Lingfield hurdling debut in November but it's been a struggled since, albeit his latest effort in a handicap at this course was a step back in the right direction. Has a 7-month absence to overcome. Lightly raced 6yo and was only 6l away here in April; there are races in him.
2	4 2nd (4) (8/1 -60%) Ede'iffs Rock		8 8/1(-60%)																															(4) Ede'iffs Rock 8/1, Just poor form in two hurdling outings to date and, while bumper form gives her some scope for improvement, the handicapper has taken no chances with opening mark. Second to good types the last twice; goes handicapping off what should be a fair mark.
3	3 3rd (3) (Evens +75%) Duhallow Tommy		0 Evens(+75%)																															(3) Duhallow Tommy Evens, Runner-up in a point and made it third time lucky in bumpers at Fontwell in January. Yet to match that form over hurdles but type to do better now handicapping, so worth chancing. Too free in his latest maiden but that was after a break and could be more settled here.
4	8 4th (8) (11/1 +67%) Onnaroll		11 11/1(+67%)																															(8) Onnaroll 11/1, Just poor form over hurdles, making an impact on only one occasion, and hard to make a case for from out of the weights. Second from out of the weights at Fontwell but below that level since.
5th	9 5th (9) (33/1 +34%) Qeyaady		33 33/1(+34%)																															(9) Qeyaady 33/1, Fairly useful at best on the Flat but has shown precious little to date over hurdles. Fit from a run on the level and might do better now switched to handicaps. Tailed off in non-handicap hurdles and was again well beaten in two Flat starts last month.
6th	10 6th (10) (25/1 +38%) Call Me Sainte		25 25/1(+38%)																															(10) Call Me Sainte 25/1, Little form in a bumper/over hurdles to date and looks up against it again from out of the weights. Ran poorly in latest handicap at Exeter and hard to fancy from 12lb out of the weights.
7th	1 7th (1) (11/4 -10%) Afta Party		2.75 11/4(-10%)																															(1) Afta Party 11/4, Fairly useful Flat winner for Alice Haynes and, having left Syd Hosie, left previous hurdling efforts behind when landing a novice at Newton Abbot 49 days ago. Can do better still, so worth a chance to follow up. Appeared to have a lot to find in a Newton Abbot novice last time but he beat a good horse.

LTO Selection:

---

EDE'IFFS ROCK has finished second on both starts over hurdles so far at Warwick and Newton Abbot. The five-year-old now switches her attention to handicap company where it wouldn't be a surprise to see her take a step forward. Duhallow Tommy is likely to improve from his latest effort at Fontwell, while Afta Party and Birdman Bob appear best of the remainder.

DUHALLOW TOMMY should be spot on having seemed in need of his reappearance and he's potentially well-in based on bumper efforts, so he's worth a chance to make a successful handicap debut. Afta Party looks the main danger on the back of a successful debut for this yard and Atreides would warrant respect if taking his chance.

Afta Party is respected after his improved win last time but DUHALLOW TOMMY has shown enough to believe he might be well treated.

1	1 1st (1) (11/8 +39%) Alfie's Princess		1.375 11/8(+39%)																															(1) Alfie's Princess 11/8, Point winner who showed plenty of stamina as she made a successful debut over hurdles at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) last month, belying the state she'd got herself in sweating, keeping on well. There is more to come from her. Useful bumper form and won her hurdling debut with plenty to spare.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/4 +0%) Endless Supply		2.75 11/4(+0%)																															(5) Endless Supply 11/4, Placed on the second of 2 outings in bumpers and showed plenty to work on making hurdling debut after 6 months off at Chepstow behind Alfie's Princess, asked a big question positioned so far back on wretched ground. Will improve. Looked a danger to Alfie's Princess at Chepstow until clouting two out.
3	7 3rd (7) (4/1 -14%) Queen Annie		4 4/1(-14%)																															(7) Queen Annie 4/1, 72,000 gns buy last year who finished held when well backed on bumper debut but showed why the money came for her 12 weeks on with a hard-fought success at Chepstow. Has had a breathing operation and also has a tongue tie on for hurdles debut now. Idled when winning her bumper at Chepstow; now tongue tied and had a wind op.
4	6 4th (6) (7/1 -56%) Kit's Coty		7 7/1(-56%)																															(6) Kit's Coty 7/1, Placed on all 3 starts in Irish points (£60,000 purchase), was going well and looked set to be involved in the finish when losing her rider in extraordinary fashion 3 out on hurdles debut at Ludlow last month. Will improve. Still moving well when hampered and unseating on the home turn in a 2m5f novice at Ludlow.
5th	9 5th (9) (40/1 -21%) Whisperonthewind		40 40/1(-21%)																															(9) Whisperonthewind 40/1, Posted a promising debut second in bumper at Warwick a year ago but didn't build on that in 2 runs after. From a good NH family but has work to do on her hurdles bow. Finished second in her first bumper but form dipped afterwards.
6th	10 6th (10) (20/1 -167%) Lady Balko		20 20/1(-167%)																															(10) Lady Balko 20/1, €27,000 buy out of a hurdle/chase winner in France. Point winner in Ireland in February. Worth a look on hurdles debut. Had a subsequent point winner behind when winning her sole Irish point in February.
7th	8 7th (8) (80/1 -142%) Sweet Caryline		80 80/1(-142%)																															(8) Sweet Caryline 80/1, Fetched £50,000 as a 3-y-o and she's out of a 2m hurdle winner. Unseated rider when beaten on her introduction in a Chepstow bumper in March and hard to know what to expect of her now switched to hurdles. 7-1 but was well held when unseating her rider in a Chepstow bumper in March.
2	2 |U| (2) (16/1 -129%) Annie Express		16 16/1(-129%)																															(2) Annie Express 16/1, £35,000 buy easily off mark in Irish points at third attempt (Mar 26). Got to be of interest starting out over hurdles. Won a modest Irish point before being picked up for £35,000.
3	3 |PU| (3) (200/1 -100%) Bresilliantly So		200 200/1(-100%)																															(3) Bresilliantly So 200/1, Blue Bresil mare. Dam 17f-2½m hurdle winner, also 11.5f winner who stayed 2m on Flat. Second foal; dam 11.4f Flat (RPR 68) and 2m-2m4f hurdle winner; can only be watched.
4	4 |PU| (4) (200/1 -33%) Deadwood Diva		200 200/1(-33%)																															(4) Deadwood Diva 200/1, Recharge mare. Dam 2m-3¼m hurdle/chase winner. Dam prolific 2m-3m2f hurdle/chase winner from the family of Gold Cup winner Bobs Worth.

Endless Supply (third) was no match for an impressive ALFIE'S PRINCESS (winner) when the pair met at Chepstow last time. The former, who produced a high level of form in bumpers last season, is fancied to uphold those placings, despite carrying a penalty, and maintain her unbeaten hurdles record. Queen Annie was also successful at the Welsh venue when last in action and must be considered now sent over timber.

ALFIE'S PRINCESS came clear in good style on her hurdles debut at Chepstow and there is more to come from her. She can defy a penalty, with old-rival Endless Supply perhaps the danger with improvement on the way also. Kit's Coty got no luck at Ludlow when shaping well and is feared. Queen Annie is also considered first time up over hurdles.

Alfie's Princess won well at Chepstow but ENDLESS SUPPLY was looking a danger until whacking two out and she now has a 7lb pull.

1	3 1st (3) (1/2 -100%) Hasthing		0.5 1/2(-100%)																															(3) Hasthing 1/2, French bumper winner who made a very encouraging start for this yard last season, putting up a smart effort in Aintree Grade 2 when last seen.

2	4 2nd (4) (12/1 -100%) Rocket Ronald		12 12/1(-100%)																															(4) Rocket Ronald 12/1, Flemensfirth gelding. Dam lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, closely related to useful hurdler (2m/2¼m winner) Theatre Girl and half-sister to smart hurdler/useful chaser (2m-2½m winner) Ring The Boss. Lots to like on paper and needs a market check. Flemensfirth gelding; noteworthy newcomer who is worth monitoring in the market.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +71%) Globe Player		3.5 7/2(+71%)																															(6) Globe Player 7/2, Finished a place worse but several lengths closer than in a Warwick bumper in the spring when third in Huntingdon maiden hurdle on return, shaping like a stayer. That had the look of a good race but he might need more time. Promising third at Huntingdon; Nathaniel gelding seems sure to be in the mix.
4	5 4th (5) (13/2 +46%) Zmiinyi		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(5) Zmiinyi 13/2, £25,000 buy, runner-up completed start in Irish points. Attracted support but was well held on hurdles debut at Chepstow behind Minella Missile (won Cheltenham Grade 2 on Friday) 3 weeks ago. Hinted at promise on hurdling debut when ninth at Chepstow; can take a step forward now.
5th	1 5th (1) (250/1 -25%) Captain Copper		250 250/1(-25%)																															(1) Captain Copper 250/1, No show in points/maiden and novice hurdles. Maiden pointer who has cut little ice in three runs over hurdles; others much preferred.
6th	2 6th (2) (16/1 -14%) Fortuitous Find		16 16/1(-14%)																															(2) Fortuitous Find 16/1, Winning pointer who offered something to work on sent hurdling in decent contest at Doncaster a year ago. Should improve. Winning pointer; encouraging debut 3rd in Doncaster novice; not discounted after absence.
7	7 |PU| (7) (200/1 -100%) No More No		200 200/1(-100%)																															(7) No More No 200/1, Unplaced completed start in points (May 14). Tongue tie on for Rules debut. Engaged 12.30 Fontwell Sunday. Unseated rider early at Fontwell (2m1f) yesterday on rules debut; best watched.

LTO Selection:

HASTHING sets a high standard based on his bumper form, having placed in the Grade 2 at Aintree, and the six-year-old is expected to be a cut above the opposition here. Globe Player finished third at Huntingdon on his first attempt over timber and is entitled to step forward from that display. Zmiinyi was disappointing at Chepstow on his Rules debut, but he could easily leave that effort behind him.

HASTHING is a cracking jumping prospect for his top connections and can make a winning start over hurdles in a thin contest. Rocket Ronald might be the danger on his hurdles debut.

Dual bumper winner HASTHING signed off last term with a fine third in a Grade 2 Aintree race and is impossible to oppose now hurdling.

1	2 1st (2) (15/8 -7%) Stanley Pincombe		1.875 15/8(-7%)																															(2) Stanley Pincombe 15/8, In good form back hurdling with a win at Taunton and a second at Wincanton in the spring. Good return from a break when second of 18 at Exeter under Molly Landau 4 weeks ago and taken to go one better now. He came clear of the rest when second at Exeter (2m2f).
2	4 2nd (4) (5/1 +69%) No Rematch		5 5/1(+69%)																															(4) No Rematch 5/1, Has struggled since winning a claiming hurdle at Leicester in February, including 2 outings back with this yard in recent weeks. Potentially well treated but it's been a quiet start back with Evan Williams.
3	6 3rd (6) (6/1 +25%) Maroochi		6 6/1(+25%)																															(6) Maroochi 6/1, Deservedly shed maiden tag when dead heating at Newton Abbot (21.5f) last summer and back in form last twice. Place claims here. Only 1-19 over hurdles and his recent respectable efforts have been over further.
4	3 4th (3) (9/1 +25%) Bert Wilson		9 9/1(+25%)																															(3) Bert Wilson 9/1, Reacted well to a visor last season, winning over C&D and at Chepstow. Pulled up back at Chepstow on his reappearance, though. He dropped out and was pulled up at Chepstow only 20 days ago.
5th	8 5th (8) (17/2 -13%) Punches Cross		8.5 17/2(-13%)																															(8) Punches Cross 17/2, Placed twice over hurdles at Fontwell this summer and bounced back from a lesser run at Uttoxeter when third at Wincanton last month. When backed at Wincanton (3m, good) a month ago he was found wanting when it mattered.
6th	7 6th (7) (7/1 +30%) Gaia Vallis		7 7/1(+30%)																															(7) Gaia Vallis 7/1, Went close in a handicap at Taunton in April. Might have needed her latest Stratford outing after 6 months off and could fare better now. Three-time winner with a big run in her if all the better for her comeback effort.
7th	1 7th (1) (13/2 -44%) Ragamuffin		6.5 13/2(-44%)																															(1) Ragamuffin 13/2, Three-time chase winner in 2022 and placed twice over hurdles this season, including third over C&D 14 days ago. Thereabouts if in similar form. Last three wins have been over fences but it was over C&D when beaten 3l two weeks ago.
8th	9 8th (9) (80/1 -100%) Auld Sod		80 80/1(-100%)																															(9) Auld Sod 80/1, Dual chaser a few years back but little to shout about of late and remains to be seen whether a return to hurdles help him. Fair run over fences last time but 2-49 overall and he's out of the weights.
5	5 |U| (5) (40/1 -100%) Jukebox D'eddy		40 40/1(-100%)																															(5) Jukebox D'eddy 40/1, Took a step forward over hurdles when going close at Wetherby on handicap debut in March but has disappointingly failed to build on that. Quickly reverts to hurdles after all but coming down at the first and pulled up on recent chase debut. Pulled up after a mistake over fences last week; has threatened before over hurdles.

LTO Selection:

---

RAGAMUFFIN displayed signs of a return to form when third over C&D earlier in the month and Neil Mulholland's gelding could take advantage of what doesn't appear to be a particularly strong contest, especially with the handicapper leaving him on the same mark. Stanley Pincombe filled the runner-up spot on his return from a break at Exeter and is open to improvement. Others to consider are Punches Cross and Maroochi.

If STANLEY PINCOMBE is in the same form as when second in a big field at Exeter last month he'll stand a good chance of going one better. Ragamuffin was third over C&D last time and is second choice ahead of Maroochi.

It's hard to be overly positive about any of these but STANLEY PINCOMBE was a clear second at Exeter and he appeals most.

1	9 1st (9) (13/2 -18%) Arclight		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(9) Arclight 13/2, Fairly useful on the Flat and ran to a similar level when winning her first 2 starts over hurdles last season. After 6 months off, took very well to chasing with a comfortable success in handicap at Kempton (18f) last month, so she's a major player with progress to come. Won on chase debut and benefits from valuable 4yo allowance; could be in the mix.
2	7 2nd (7) (33/1 +0%) Mayhem Mya		33 33/1(+0%)																															(7) Mayhem Mya 33/1, Having looked a good hurdles prospect initially in 2021/22, she's got back on track this spring, adding to her tally in handicap at Sandown in March. Finished last of 4 in Warwick handicap on chase debut in May, though showed aptitude even if she could do with settling better. Two-time hurdle winner but others were better in that sphere; well beaten on chase debut.
3	1 3rd (1) (14/1 -17%) Carole's Pass		14 14/1(-17%)																															(1) Carole's Pass 14/1, Hurdles winner in France last summer and followed up back from a break at Newbury in November. In first-time cheekpieces, bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when fifth at Ayr in April and ran at least as well at Ludlow next time. Needs to find more on her chase debut. Talented over hurdles and open to further improvement, but it's needed on this chase debut.
4	3 4th (3) (10/1 +38%) Galice Macalo		10 10/1(+38%)																															(3) Galice Macalo 10/1, After a spell over fences, back to her best returned to hurdling when winning handicap at Chepstow in January. Not at the same level the remainder of the season, but after 6 months off (had a wind op) shaped promisingly when third in novice chase at Worcester (20f) last time. Third to Lady Adare on 2m4f chase debut and could benefit from the drop back in trip.
5th	2 5th (2) (9/1 -38%) Endless Escape		9 9/1(-38%)																															(2) Endless Escape 9/1, Likeable type who recorded a fourth win in novice hurdles at Newcastle (20.3f) in February. Had her winning run ended when seventh of 21 in the mares novice at Cheltenham, but acquitted herself very well. Interesting recruit to chasing with tongue tie applied (has had a wind op). 4-4 over hurdles before creditable seventh at Cheltenham; brings potential to chase debut.
6th	10 6th (10) (66/1 -100%) Inspiratrice		66 66/1(-100%)																															(10) Inspiratrice 66/1, Caused a 200/1 shock when landing a Taunton juvenile hurdle last year and similar form when third in novice at the same course in February. Matched that level when fourth on her seasonal/chase debut at Worcester (20f) last month, but difficult ask in this contest. Soundly beaten fourth behind two of these on chase debut and she's up against it.
7th	8 7th (8) (3/1 +25%) Nurse Susan		3 3/1(+25%)																															(8) Nurse Susan 3/1, Created an excellent impression when winning her first 2 starts over hurdles in 2021/22 and showed even better form in defeat when second to Love Envoi at Lingfield in January that season. Has been off 20 months but she remains with potential on her first start over fences. Returns from long absence but in top hands & she was a promising novice hurdler in 2021-22.
8th	5 8th (5) (7/2 +22%) Law Ella		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(5) Law Ella 7/2, Fairly useful over hurdles and, with tongue strap applied after 5 months off, scored readily on her chase debut in maiden at Thurles (20.5f) last month. Better to come over fences and she can make her presence felt. Won comfortably on chase debut and could have more to offer for her top Irish trainer.
4	4 |PU| (4) (3/1 -50%) Lady Adare		3 3/1(-50%)																															(4) Lady Adare 3/1, Three-time winner over hurdles who made a winning start in this sphere in novice at Worcester (20f) in October. Improved on that effort upped to Grade 2 level when second to a smart rival at Wincanton 9 days ago, so she's not taken lightly back in listed company. Runner-up in Grade 2 novice at Wincanton recently and holds leading form claims.

Useful hurdler ARCLIGHT made the perfect start to life over fences when winning at Kempton last month, where she survived scare at the final obstacle. Nicky Henderson's charge ought to have learnt plenty from that, however, and a subsequent 8lb rise should not prevent her from mounting another stern challenge, with improvement on the cards. Lady Adare hit the woodwork in a Grade 2 at Wincanton nine days ago and she merits respect down in class, while others to note include Law Ella and Nurse Susan.

ARCLIGHT took extremely well to chasing when scoring with plenty in hand at Kempton last month, jumping boldy, and she can take the step up in grade in her stride. The 4-y-o is taken to see off the challenge of Lady Adare, who is respected after her fine second at Wincanton 9 days ago, while Irish-raider Law Ella also enters calculations.

Irish challenger LAW ELLA impressed on last month's chase debut at Thurles and can make it 2-2 over fences. Lady Adare is feared.

1	2 1st (2) (9/2 +10%) Jacks Touch		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(2) Jacks Touch 9/2, Lost her form over hurdles but went some way to stopping the slide despite making errors on chasing debut at Huntingdon 3 weeks ago. Well treated if she can put in a clearer round of jumping. Encouraging chasing debut fourth at Huntingdon; she can take a step forward now.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 -145%) Impression Chic		4 4/1(-145%)																															(6) Impression Chic 4/1, Ex-pointer who stepped up on what she showed in a handful of runs over hurdles when making a winning chase debut in a first-time tongue strap at Fontwell in October. Good second at Musselburgh next time and fancied to get back to winning ways. Debut chase winner at Fontwell before beaten neck at Musselburgh (jinked left); big shout.
3	8 3rd (8) (25/1 +24%) Lady Pacifico		25 25/1(+24%)																															(8) Lady Pacifico 25/1, Made a winning start over hurdles at Leicester (2m) in 2021 but her record has been patchy since. Off 140 days and has left David Weston ahead of this chasing debut. Below par both runs this summer; goes chasing for her new yard with a bit to prove.
4	5 4th (5) (12/1 -20%) Santa Clarita		12 12/1(-20%)																															(5) Santa Clarita 12/1, Fair form over hurdles/fences in France. Stepped up on yard debut when third of 7 over hurdles at Huntingdon but well held otherwise for current connections. May benefit from reappearance (over fences) at Ffos Las, so not completely dismissed. Looked rusty after seven months off when seventh at Ffos Las last month; can build on it.
5th	1 5th (1) (7/2 +13%) Spitfire Girl		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(1) Spitfire Girl 7/2, Winning hurdler who was first past the post on her Ffos Las chase debut/reappearance, losing the race in the stewards' room after causing interference on the run-in. Disappointed at Hereford next time but race may have come too soon. First past the post on her chasing debut at Ffos Las but a remote third at Hereford since.
6th	7 6th (7) (6/1 +82%) Chic Avenue		6 6/1(+82%)																															(7) Chic Avenue 6/1, Modest in bumpers and similar story over hurdles last season, including making little impact in a couple of handicaps. Remains to be seen whether a switch to fences sparks an upturn in her fortunes. Ended last term with two poor efforts; sent over fences for her return with more required.
3	3 |U| (3) (5/2 +17%) Auditoria		2.5 5/2(+17%)																															(3) Auditoria 5/2, Creditable second of 5 in handicap chase (5/1) at Fontwell (19.5f, good) 44 days ago. Visor back on. Level is fairly well established but she should be on the premises. Back on track when second at Fontwell last month; she's shortlisted.
4	4 |PU| (4) (100/1 -525%) Givemylovetorose		100 100/1(-525%)																															(4) Givemylovetorose 100/1, 33/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (19.5f, heavy), dropping away after 3 out. Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Declan Queally. Doesn't make much appeal on chasing debut. Ex-Irish maiden hurdler; needs yard switch to spark resurgence on first go over fences.

LTO Selection:

IMPRESSION CHIC lost nothing in defeat when attempting to follow up last month's Fontwell success at Musselburgh 12 days ago and Richard Hobson's unexposed chaser is fancied to regain the winning thread, despite being raised a further 2lb in the handicap. Spitfire Girl didn't appear to see out 3m1f at Hereford on her latest outing but she is well worth considering now eased in both trip and class, while Auditoria, a runner-up on her most recent start, appeals most of the remainder.

IMPRESSION CHIC has upped her form since switched to chasing and she's likely to get back to winning ways. Auditoria is likely to give her running again and it would be no surprise if Spitfire Girl got back on track.

More good times look on the cards for Richard Hobson's progressive mare IMPRESSION CHIC (nap), who can make it 2-3 in this sphere.

1	4 1st (4) (6/4 +63%) Kotmask		1.5 6/4(+63%)																															(4) Kotmask 6/4, In the frame all 4 starts over hurdles last year and caught the eye under considerate handling when third at Kempton (18f, good, 6/1) on debut over fences 29 days ago. Type to improve further as a chaser and he's entitled to plenty of respect. Ran a pleasing first race over fences at Kempton and this looks no harder.
2	2 2nd (2) (15/2 +17%) Red Windsor		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(2) Red Windsor 15/2, Fairly useful winner over hurdles shaped as if needing the run when last of 4 in handicap chase at Fontwell (19.5f, good) on debut over fences 44 days ago. Jumped better as the year wore on there and he should do better. Tailed off on chase debut but better than that and not badly handicapped.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/2 -11%) No Risk With Lou		2.5 5/2(-11%)																															(1) No Risk With Lou 5/2, Winning pointer who bettered his hurdles form when making winning chase debut (7/1) at Huntingdon (16.5f, good) 34 days ago, jumping boldly and drawing clear between last 2. Expected to be bang there with even better to come over fences. Impressed on chase debut when he jumped well; up 8lb; seems best on good ground.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 +40%) Gitche Gumee		3 3/1(+40%)																															(3) Gitche Gumee 3/1, Won sole start in bumpers and made winning hurdles debut at Stratford last year. In frame all 4 completed outings subsequently, though his jumping proved an issue on more than one occasion. Remains with some potential from this mark if his jumping holds up on chase debut. Bred for fences and should be well handicapped on the pick of his hurdle form.
5th	5 5th (5) (28/1 -75%) Bonarc		28 28/1(-75%)																															(5) Bonarc 28/1, Winless since scoring over hurdles at Kilbeggan in May 2022 and she showed nothing when last of 4 in handicap chase at Sligo (17.6f, heavy) 54 days ago. Opposable. 0-5 chasing but has run well in this discipline and drying ground would aid his cause.

LTO Selection:

---

NO RISK WITH LOU jumped with great fluency when winning on his chasing debut last month and an 8lb rise might not be enough to stop Alex Hales' charge from following up. The chief threat might come in the form of Gitche Gumee, who showed a consistent level of form over hurdles last season and he is likely to appreciate the switch to fences. Kotmask is unlikely to go down without a fight, while Aviles should not be underestimated either.

NO RISK WITH LOU looked a natural chaser when making a winning debut over fences at Huntingdon and he should take plenty of beating again from an 8 lb higher mark. Kotmask was a consistent type over hurdles and still appeals as another who should do better in this sphere with a run now under his belt, whilst Aviles looks worth noting in the betting on chase debut.

Gitche Gumee should be well treated for his first run over fences but KOTMASK gets the nod after his third at Kempton.

1	4 1st (4) (6/1 +0%) Wiseguy		6 6/1(+0%)																															(4) Wiseguy 6/1, Winner of sole start in bumpers and off the mark at second attempt over hurdles in a 24.4f Doncaster maiden in December 2021. Only seen twice since and latest run in a handicap at Warwick 6 months ago was disappointing. Market support would look significant on chasing bow. Useful bumper/hurdle form; has the build for chasing and he's much respected.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/1 -6%) Pimlico Point		9 9/1(-6%)																															(8) Pimlico Point 9/1, Fetched £160,000 after winning his sole start in points and made a successful start over hurdles at Chepstow (19.5f, good to soft) in March 2022. Disappointed on handicap bow when last seen in January (reported to have had a breathing problem and has since undergone a wind op). Chase debut. Should make a chaser and well handicapped on the form of his novice hurdle win.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/1 +56%) Top Of The Bill		11 11/1(+56%)																															(6) Top Of The Bill 11/1, Fairly useful hurdler who made an unconvincing start to chasing at Chepstow 20 days ago. Might benefit for the experience and return to this trip should help. Raced awkwardly at times when never dangerous on chase debut (2m3f).
4	1 4th (1) (10/3 +0%) Makin'yourmindup		3.333333 10/3(+0%)																															(1) Makin'yourmindup 10/3, Likeable sort who enhanced a good strike rate under Rules when landing the Presige Novices' at Haydock in February. Only fourth in a listed contest at Perth 6 months ago but very much the sort to take to this sphere. Has earned this high a mark and brings potential into his chasing career.
5th	7 5th (7) (20/1 -122%) Pulling Stumps		20 20/1(-122%)																															(7) Pulling Stumps 20/1, Progressive hurdler when last seen and has the scope for chasing. Lengthy absence to overcome, however, so market will be informative. Long absence to overcome but he's dangerously unexposed now sent over fences.
6th	9 6th (9) (11/2 +45%) Great Name That		5.5 11/2(+45%)																															(9) Great Name That 11/2, Winner of sole start between the flags and while he didn't show much starting out under Rules in an Irish bumper last spring, there were certainly positives to glean from four placed efforts over hurdles. Solid platform set ahead of this chasing debut after 7 months off. Pointing background suggests he could be better over fences and this is his handicap debut.
7th	5 7th (5) (9/2 +40%) Storminhome		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(5) Storminhome 9/2, Winning Irish pointer who landed maiden hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f, good) in January and posted two good placed efforts after at Ffos Las and Bangor. Shaped well on chasing debut at Huntingdon 3 weeks ago and is open to improvement. Got softened up at Huntingdon and was picked off late on; jumped well.
8th	2 8th (2) (4/1 +0%) Moon Hunter		4 4/1(+0%)																															(2) Moon Hunter 4/1, Winning pointer who landed first 2 starts over hurdles. Looked rusty when fourth at Cheltenham on seasonal/chasing debut last month and should be well suited by the return to this trip. Ran well on chase debut at Cheltenham where 2m4f looked on the sharp side.
3	3 |PU| (3) (66/1 -450%) Watergrange Jack		66 66/1(-450%)																															(3) Watergrange Jack 66/1, Scored at Worcester at the start of August prior to back-to-back Fontwell wins, the latest in a 19.2f handicap (good). Only sixth at Warwick last time and not as appealing as some on chasing debut. Productive spell over hurdles this summer; high in the weights even if taking to fences.

LTO Selection:

---

MAKIN'YOURMINDUP sets a good standard and, having landed a Grade 2 over hurdles at Haydock last season, he has to be rated as a serious player in this less exalted company on his chasing debut. Moon Hunter is feared most after posting a respectable effort over fences off 2lb higher at Cheltenham last month, while Storminhome is also open to any amount of improvement now he has some experience of the larger obstacles.

MAKIN'YOURMINDUP had a solid campaign over hurdles last season but chasing should bring more out of him and he's fancied to get the better of the likes of Moon Hunter and Strominhome, who both shaped with encouragement on their chasing debuts recently.

The strapping STORMINHOME jumped for fun at Huntingdon before getting picked off by one who was ridden less aggressively.

1	2 1st (2) (3/1 +85%) J'Ai Froid		3 3/1(+85%)																															(2) J'Ai Froid 3/1, Useful handicap hurdler at his best but has been struggling for form, finishing down the field at Market Rasen (20.6f) when last seen in June. Has fallen in the weights but has enough to prove after a break. Rattled off a four-timer in 2021 but no joy since and his reduced mark is warranted.
2	3 2nd (3) (16/5 -16%) Harel Du Marais		3.2 16/5(-16%)																															(3) Harel Du Marais 16/5, Still looking for his first win but ran well on both of his starts in August, in first-time hood when runner-up in a Perth maiden on his latest outing. Can give another good account back in a handicap on first run for yard after leaving Stuart Crawford. 0-11 and bought for £24,000; has the form to be competitive off this mark.
3	4 3rd (4) (Evens -25%) Oakley Dancer		0 Evens(-25%)																															(4) Oakley Dancer Evens, Improved on previous hurdling efforts under a positive ride when landing novice at Chepstow in March. Defied a penalty under similar tactics at Newton Abbot next time and she remains capable of better as she goes handicapping on her return. Leading contender. This mark will ask questions of her but clearly progressing well after her novice wins.
4	5 4th (5) (8/1 +50%) Believe Jack		8 8/1(+50%)																															(5) Believe Jack 8/1, Made a winning start for this stable in a Hereford novice hurdle back in November 2021. However, not in the same form next time and, after a 22-month absence, offered little when pulled up at Newton Abbot 11 days ago. It was a good handicap in which he pulled up after a long absence at Newbury.

LTO Selection:

---

It looks best to side with OAKLEY DANCER, who makes her seasonal/handicap debut in search of a hat-trick, having won at Chepstow and Newton Abbot earlier in the year. Word Has It won on his seasonal debut at Fontwell on Sunday and a 7lb penalty may not halt him if he can replicate that effort, while Harel Du Marais, who is now 4lb lower than when finishing a creditable third in handicap company at Perth in August, completes the shortlist.

OAKLEY DANCER made it back-to-back wins under another positive ride when scoring at Newton Abbot in May and she can land the hat-trick with more still to offer on her handicap debut. Harel du Marais was in good form when last seen in the summer and could go well again on his stable debut, with Word Has It also considered if taking up this engagement.

This may not take a great deal of winning and Mark Walford could have found the right race for his new recruit HAREL DU MARAIS.

1	7 1st (7) (4/1 +71%) Abbeyhill		4 4/1(+71%)																															(7) Abbeyhill 4/1, Winning pointer but well beaten in novice/maiden hurdles last season. Some encouragement sent handicapping when fourth at Fontwell (21.7f) in May, though he was always behind on his return 45 days ago. Improvement required as he goes up in trip. Still lightly raced but he was barely sighted on his recent return at Fontwell.
2	3 2nd (3) (3/1 +14%) Dear Ralphy		3 3/1(+14%)																															(3) Dear Ralphy 3/1, Fair bumper performer who was in control when falling 2 out on handicap hurdle debut at this C&D in April. Pulled up at Uttoxeter next time, but it still remains early days in handicaps so no surprise to see him get back on track having had a wind op. Unlucky not to win over C&D in April; had a wind op since disappointing next time.
3	2 3rd (2) (9/4 +36%) San Pedro		2.25 9/4(+36%)																															(2) San Pedro 9/4, With cheekpieces applied, opened his account over hurdles at Lingfield (23f) in February and he scored again at Fontwell (25.7f) in May. After 5 months off, only fifth back at Fontwell on his stable debut last month, but he's major player with his recent run behind him. Should be on a good mark and capable of bouncing back from his quiet stable debut.
4	4 4th (4) (9/1 -64%) Baby Sham		9 9/1(-64%)																															(4) Baby Sham 9/1, Off the mark over hurdles at Fakenham (20f) in May and also successful at Fontwell (25.7f) in June. After 4 months off (had a wind op), probably needed the run when fourth at this C&D last month, so she could fare better this time around. Capable in races of this nature and ran as though latest race would bring her on.
5th	5 5th (5) (12/1 -200%) Cochise		12 12/1(-200%)																															(5) Cochise 12/1, Fairly useful on the Flat but yet to match that level in 4 starts over hurdles. Made a successful start for this yard back on the Flat in February last year, but well held after 20 months off at Goodwood in October. On a workable mark returned to hurdling. Heavy Flat defeat last time was after a long absence; has the form to feature.
6th	6 6th (6) (11/1 +21%) Betty's Belle		11 11/1(+21%)																															(6) Betty's Belle 11/1, It's now sixteen runs since her debut success but she wasn't discredited when third of 6 in handicap at this C&D in October. However, she failed to back up that effort when pulled up at Fakenham last time. Bounce back called for. Ran well here last month and it could be that Fakenham didn't suit last week.
1	1 |U| (1) (7/1 +42%) Pilbara		7 7/1(+42%)																															(1) Pilbara 7/1, Won twice over hurdles in Ireland in summer 2020 when trained by Emmet Mullins. Sole win for this yard was gained off a significantly higher mark over fences at Fontwell in October 2021, but it's been a struggle since and offered little on his return 2 weeks ago. Last season never got off the ground and he was laboured here two weeks ago.

LTO Selection:

With little pace on offer in this field, SAN PEDRO could repeat the tactics that saw him make all at Fontwell in May. The market suggested better was expected on last month's return, but he can take a step forward with that run under his belt. Baby Sham was far from disgraced over track and trip last time and Seamus Mullins' mare could fare better on her second start following wind surgery. Dear Ralphy is also noted.

Having resumed winning ways at Fontwell in May, SAN PEDRO is entitled to have needed the run on his stable/seasonal debut last month, so he can take a step forward to gain a third success since the application of cheekpieces. Baby Sham could also improve from her recent run and is respected, with Dear Ralphy completing the shortlist.

The interesting one is DEAR RALPHY (nap) who would surely have won here in April had he not fallen two out.

Dam, unraced, closely related to smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) African Gold and useful hurdler (stays 3m) Franciscan Rock. Worthy of respect. £72,000 3yo; in top hands and he's one to be interested in on debut.
6th	5 6th (5) (100/1 -100%) Hawk Stone		100 100/1(-100%)																															(5) Hawk Stone 100/1, Down the field at Cheltenham on debut and, while this is an easier race, he doesn't make much appeal. Made debut in warm bumper at Cheltenham; well beaten at 200-1 and may be best watched.
7th	9 7th (9) (300/1 -200%) Pescatorius		300 300/1(-200%)																															(9) Pescatorius 300/1, Big price and offered little at Taunton on debut 7 months ago, so firmly up against it. 150-1 when down the field on debut at Taunton (2m, good to soft) in April.
8th	10 8th (10) (22/1 -267%) Pirates' Tale		22 22/1(-267%)																															(10) Pirates' Tale 22/1, Second of 9 in bumper at Newton Abbot (16.8f, heavy) on NH debut 30 days ago. Has an experience edge over most and may improve, so not without hope. Fared best of the debutants when runner-up at Newton Abbot; sets the form standard.

Half-brother to numerous winners, including very smart hurdler/top-class chaser Whisper and smart hurdler/fairly useful chaser Chuchoteuse. Wears tongue strap. Makes plenty of appeal on paper and stable is in rude health. Half-brother to eight winners notably Whisper; in-form trainer does well in bumpers.

BOND BROKER was a comfortable winner of his sole start on the point-to-point scene and is an attractive proposition on his Rules debut now he is under the tutelage of champion trainer, Paul Nicholls. The gelding, whose dam won over both hurdles and fences, was snapped up for 80,000 pounds after that pointing success and is presented with a good opportunity to produce an immediate return on the investment. Hartington, Dunskay and Anno Power are other noteworthy debutants to monitor in the betting.

PALACIO has an excellent pedigree and represents an in-form stable, so he's marginally preferred to Bond Broker, who has already tasted success in points. Hartington also makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Point winner BOND BROKER makes his debut for Paul Nicholls and is taken to maintain his unbeaten record. Pirates' Tale is a danger.

1	6 1st (6) (13/8 +54%) Miss Dolly Rocker		1.625 13/8(+54%)																															(6) Miss Dolly Rocker 13/8, Winner at Nottingham in July. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at this course (11f, 11/4) 14 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Back down in trip. Has to be taken seriously. Ran creditably over 1m3f here last time; good claims if coping with return to 1m.
2	11 2nd (11) (12/1 -71%) Outrace		12 12/1(-71%)																															(11) Outrace 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Bath in July. Creditable second of 13 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D 12 days ago. Can go well again. Placed at big prices the last twice, 33-1 second over C&D latest; in the mix.
3	3 3rd (3) (33/1 -136%) Ocean Heights		33 33/1(-136%)																															(3) Ocean Heights 33/1, Fairly useful winner at 16f in bumpers. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, seventh of 11 in minor event at this C&D (250/1) 103 days ago. Bit to prove. Has a question mark over current mark but could revive on Flat handicap debut.
4	1 4th (1) (10/3 +58%) Arctician		3.333333 10/3(+58%)																															(1) Arctician 10/3, Course winner. 6/1, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Respectable fourth, not far behind Outrace, over C&D 12 days ago; frame possibilities.
5th	5 5th (5) (40/1 -100%) Awtaad Prince		40 40/1(-100%)																															(5) Awtaad Prince 40/1, 50/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, pulled up in juvenile hurdle at Kempton (16f, good) on NH debut 29 days ago. Poor on last Flat outing. Flat form deteriorated badly in August/September; others preferred.
6th	7 6th (7) (8/1 +0%) Port Erin		8 8/1(+0%)																															(7) Port Erin 8/1, C&D winner. 13/8, eighth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 34 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Simon & Ed Crisford. Disappointing on final start for the Crisfords but can't be written off; new yard.
7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 -211%) Big Bear Hug		14 14/1(-211%)																															(9) Big Bear Hug 14/1, 25/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 15-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, soft) 17 days ago. Gone well here previously and one to consider. Took well to first-time cheekpieces at Newmarket most recently; one to consider.
8th	8 8th (8) (5/1 +29%) Forward Flight		5 5/1(+29%)																															(8) Forward Flight 5/1, Latest win at Yarmouth in October. 6/1, below form 8¾ lengths sixth of 15 to Big Bear Hug in handicap at Newmarket (8f, soft) 17 days ago. Both wins at Yarmouth; something to prove back on AW.
9th	13 9th (13) (40/1 -186%) Uncle Dick		40 40/1(-186%)																															(13) Uncle Dick 40/1, Sixth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 9/2) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Cheekpieces back on. Three wins at Brighton (Class 6) this season; yet to score in this grade.
10th	10 10th (10) (22/1 -83%) Further Measure		22 22/1(-83%)																															(10) Further Measure 22/1, 9/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 14 days ago. Significantly down in trip. First run for yard after leaving Sylvester Kirk. Needs further than 1m now; may get outpaced on debut for new stable.
11th	2 11th (2) (18/1 +10%) Dayman		18 18/1(+10%)																															(2) Dayman 18/1, Course winner. Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip. Has won fresh and worth a look. Market support should be heeded on return from layoff; second run for new yard.
12th	14 12th (14) (66/1 -164%) Gannon Glory		66 66/1(-164%)																															(14) Gannon Glory 66/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in August. First run since leaving Archie Watson when eighth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 66/1) 13 days ago. All wins at sprint trips; goes into unknown territory over 1m.
13th	12 13th (12) (28/1 -100%) Grigio		28 28/1(-100%)																															(12) Grigio 28/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in minor event (11/2) at Salisbury (7f, soft) when last seen. Off 128 days. Makes handicap debut. One to note in the betting. Gelded since last run; possible improver now handicapping on return from break.
14th	4 14th (4) (100/1 -614%) Lady Lavina		100 100/1(-614%)																															(4) Lady Lavina 100/1, Course winner. Off 8 months/had wind op. Plenty to find on form. Both wins over 7f at novice level; something to prove in this scenario.

LTO Selection:

The booking of Benoit De La Sayette in this apprentice handicap could prove crucial for FORWARD FLIGHT, who has leading claims on his 1m Yarmouth victory off a 2lb lower mark last month. Miss Dolly Rocker is a course winner returning from a break and she has slipped to a fair mark, while Arctician also looks feasibly treated again and ran well enough when fourth over C&D 12 days ago to be seriously considered in this company.

MISS DOLLY ROCKER shaped well in a stronger race over 11f here a fortnight ago and she looks the way to go. Newmarket-winner Big Bear Hug is respected despite a 6 lb rise, while Outrace can go well again despite his high draw.

There are doubts over all of the runners for one reason or another. Tentative preference is for MISS DOLLY ROCKER.

1	6 1st (6) (16/5 +20%) Swift Victory		3.2 16/5(+20%)																															(6) Swift Victory 16/5, Took a step forward when second of 7 on nursery debut (10/3) at Newcastle (1m) 3 weeks ago, seeing out the longer trip thoroughly. Can make his presence felt. Good second at Newcastle (handicap debut) last time; may do better still.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/1 +0%) New Chelsea		4 4/1(+0%)																															(1) New Chelsea 4/1, Fairly useful form on first 3 starts but failed to meet expectations (5/6) when fourth of 6 in nursery at Newmarket (9f, heavy) 16 days ago. However, no surprise to see him get back on track with blinkers on 1st time. Likely player back down in distance, provided he takes well to first-time headgear.
3	3 3rd (3) (10/3 +58%) Endosser		3.333333 10/3(+58%)																															(3) Endosser 10/3, Suited by the return to further when fourth of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 33/1) 27 days ago. Has something to find on form, but he's capable of better now going handicapping. Close fourth at Wolverhampton on latest novice start; looks set to go well again.
4	7 4th (7) (5/1 -67%) Royal Tapestry		5 5/1(-67%)																															(7) Royal Tapestry 5/1, Confirmed promise of previous run when getting off the mark in 7-runner nursery at Lingfield (1m, AW, 5/2) 13 days ago. Remains with potential and he can follow up. Improved form (close second then won) at Lingfield since switched to handicaps; respected.
5th	2 5th (2) (4/1 +20%) I Love Paris		4 4/1(+20%)																															(2) I Love Paris 4/1, Benefited from the longer trip when third of 9 in minor event at Newmarket (1m, good, 15/2) 58 days ago. Could have more still to offer as she makes her handicap debut. Novice form includes a couple of third-place finishes at Newmarket; open to progress.
6th	4 6th (4) (14/1 -75%) Giorgio M		14 14/1(-75%)																															(4) Giorgio M 14/1, Made the frame first 2 starts, but ran no sort of race when last of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 7/2) 18 days ago. Needs to leave his latest effort behind as he goes up in trip for his handicap bow. Bred to be suited by this new trip on handicap debut; not dismissed.
7th	5 7th (5) (25/1 -56%) Quorate		25 25/1(-56%)																															(5) Quorate 25/1, Making nursery/all-weather debut, unsuited by way race developed when fifth of 6 in nursery (12/1) at this C&D 72 days ago, pulling hard. Needs to get back on the up. Only fifth of six in similar event over C&D (handicap debut) ten weeks ago.

LTO Selection:

NEW CHELSEA disappointed when sent off favourite for a nursery at Newmarket earlier in the month but he failed to get the 1m1f trip that day and could be worth another chance now dropped back in trip off a 2lb lower mark. His near-miss at Newbury over 7f the time before gives him a big chance here and first-time blinkers may help. I Love Paris has shown ability in her three qualifying runs, most notably when placed over 1m at HQ last time out, and an opening mark of 80 looks fair. Royal Tapestry won over this distance at Lingfield 13 days ago and complete the shortlist off 6lb higher.

ROYAL TAPESTRY has shown improved form upped to 1m and switched to nurseries on his last 2 starts, value for extra when opening his account at Lingfield 13 days ago, so he is taken to score again with the potential of more still to come. New Chelsea could fare better with blinkers now applied and is feared most, ahead of Swift Victory.

Preference is for I LOVE PARIS, who should progress now she's qualified for a mark. Royal Tapestry is second choice.

1	1 1st (1) (1/6 +83%) Sommelier		0.166667 1/6(+83%)																															(1) Sommelier 1/6, Promising sort. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Won 10-runner maiden at Chelmsford City (6f, 9/2) 18 days ago, plenty in hand. Difficult to oppose. Ready winner in a good time in a 6f maiden at Chelmsford 18 days ago; major player.
2	3 2nd (3) (14/1 -56%) Different Breed		14 14/1(-56%)																															(3) Different Breed 14/1, Twice-raced maiden. Much better effort when second of 6 in minor event (14/1) at Yarmouth (6f, good). Off 143 days. Needs another step forward. Second run was better than his debut but absent since June and needs improvement.
3	8 3rd (8) (5/1 +0%) Tangled Up In Blue		5 5/1(+0%)																															(8) Tangled Up In Blue 5/1, Fair filly. 18/1, good third of 8 in nursery at Newcastle (5f) 21 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Strong place claims at least. Six-race maiden but she's shown enough to think a small race could fall her way; e-w shout.
4	7 4th (7) (50/1 -52%) Little Siskin		50 50/1(-52%)																															(7) Little Siskin 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 6/1) 14 days ago. Hint of promise on debut but a backward step on AW latest (only 6-1); improvement needed.
5th	4 5th (4) (50/1 -52%) Eccentric		50 50/1(-52%)																															(4) Eccentric 50/1, Foaled March 7. 32,000 gns yearling, Dandy Man gelding. Dam twice-raced half-sister to useful 7f-9.4f winner Duchess Andorra. 125/1, eleventh of 12 in minor event at this C&D on debut 5 days ago, very slowly away. 125-1, slowly away and never in contention in a C&D novice last week.
6th	6 6th (6) (18/1 -13%) Impelling		18 18/1(-13%)																															(6) Impelling 18/1, Foaled January 27. 40,000 gns foal, Kodiac filly. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner who stayed 1m, half-sister to useful 4f-7f winner Gamgoom. 22/1, fifth of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f) on debut 14 days ago. Shaped with promise on Wolverhampton debut two weeks ago; better expected today.
7th	2 7th (2) (16/1 +36%) Barnsnape Boy		16 16/1(+36%)																															(2) Barnsnape Boy 16/1, Foaled January 29. 22,000 gns yearling, £35,000 2-y-o, Iffraaj gelding. Dam maiden (stayed 12.5f). Much more needed. Dropped away having dictated a slow pace at Wolverhampton on debut (7f); yard run two.
8th	9 8th (9) (250/1 -400%) The Carligation		250 250/1(-400%)																															(9) The Carligation 250/1, Foaled April 16. Massaat filly. Dam unraced. Limited appeal on pedigree and she would be a surprise winner on debut.

LTO Selection:

SOMMELIER left his April debut well behind when returning with an impressive success over 6f at Chelmsford earlier this month and he looks up to defying a penalty to follow up here. The form has bee boosted by the third scoring since and Marco Botti's gelding has scope for plenty of improvement. Also over 6f at Chelmsford, Alfa Kellenic caught the eye finishing well for third once the penny dropped on debut and should be wiser for that experience. Tangled Up In Blue also warrants respect after a decent third in a Newcastle nursery.

SOMMELIER ran to a pretty high level when off the mark at the second time of asking and looks up to defying a penalty with more to come. Alfa Kellenic receives 10 lb from the selection and has strong place claims, along with Tangled Up In Blue.

Sommelier is a key player despite his penalty but ALFA KELLENIC shaped with some promise at Chelmsford and can take a step forward.

2	2 2nd (2) (5/1 -82%) Character Testing		5 5/1(-82%)																															(2) Character Testing 5/1, Fair form when runner-up in 2 outings in August (C&D first occasion). Ought to be thereabouts again. Runner-up in both starts, one over C&D, and he's a strong contender once again.
3	6 3rd (6) (28/1 -40%) Le Geyt		28 28/1(-40%)																															(6) Le Geyt 28/1, 25/1, ninth of 11 in novice at Salisbury (6f, soft) on debut 80 days ago. Promise amidst evident inexperience on Salisbury debut; could take a big step forward.

Should improve and leading claims. 100-1 for her C&D debut but produced a strong finish to snatch 2nd; more to come; feared.
5th	4 5th (4) (6/5 +47%) Ezra Cee		1.2 6/5(+47%)																															(4) Ezra Cee 6/5, Promising type. 7/4, second of 11 in novice at this course (6f) 33 days ago. Should progress. Big player under Murphy. Placed in both starts, latterly when 2nd to a useful rival over 6f here; solid claims.
6th	12 6th (12) (10/1 -25%) Wadacre Icarus		10 10/1(-25%)																															(12) Wadacre Icarus 10/1, 8/1, third of 11 in novice at Newcastle (7f) on debut 6 days ago. Likely to improve for his leading stable. Promising third at Newcastle on last week's debut (7f); more to come; considered.
7th	11 7th (11) (16/1 -14%) Harrier Man		16 16/1(-14%)																															(11) Harrier Man 16/1, Harry Angel half-brother to winner abroad by Aclaim. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to high-class sprinter (also winner up to 1¼m) Librisa Breeze. One to note in the betting. Half-brother to a 6f winner in Italy; fair standard to aim at on debut; betting to guide.
8th	10 8th (10) (100/1 -400%) Electrified		100 100/1(-400%)																															(10) Electrified 100/1, 11/1, sixth of 9 in novice at Wolverhampton (7f) on debut 58 days ago, left poorly placed. Open to progress. Finished behind Bravo Zulu at Wolverhampton on debut; gelded since; improvement required.
9th	3 9th (3) (50/1 -25%) Cherry King		50 50/1(-25%)																															(3) Cherry King 50/1, 33/1, ninth of 13 in novice at Chelmsford (7f) on debut 39 days ago, not knocked about. Tongue strap added. Open to improvement. Promise amidst inexperience on debut; unlikely to shine until up in trip; tongue-tied now.
10th	7 10th (7) (200/1 -506%) Running Deal		200 200/1(-506%)																															(7) Running Deal 200/1, Due Diligence gelding. Dam ran once in France. Watching brief advised on debut unless the betting strongly hints otherwise. Dam a modest maiden in France; fair standard to aim at on debut; likely best watched.
11th	5 11th (5) (16/1 -14%) Fram Castle		16 16/1(-14%)																															(5) Fram Castle 16/1, 32,000 gns 2-y-o. Decorated Knight colt. Half-brother to 6f-1m winner Feel The Beat and 9f winner Clifton Down. Newcomer to keep an eye on in the betting. 32,000gns 2yo; half-brother to two winners in Europe; yard in form; check betting.
12th	8 12th (8) (18/1 -50%) Ten Club		18 18/1(-50%)																															(8) Ten Club 18/1, 17/2, fifth of 13 in novice at Chelmsford (7f) on debut 39 days ago. Should have more to offer. Green when a never-nearer 5th at Chelmsford on last month's debut; more to come.
13th	9 13th (9) (125/1 -150%) Clancy		125 125/1(-150%)																															(9) Clancy 125/1, 80/1, last of 11 in novice at this course (6f) on debut 33 days ago. 80-1 when last of 11 over C&D on debut with more to his defeat than an early stumble.

LTO Selection:

---

EZRA CEE sets the standard based on what he has achieved in two starts to date and the manner in which he stayed on when runner-up here last time suggested the step back up to 7f would aid his cause. State Flag outran her odds to fill the runner-up spot over C&D at the start of the month and she is capable of being in the mix, while others to note are Wadacre Icarus and Ten Club.

There was a lot to like about STATE FLAG's C&D debut second so she's narrowly preferred to Peter Chapple-Hyam's Ezra Cee. Wadacre Icarus ought to build on his Newcastle debut and is also on the shortlist along with Tom Clover's Character Testing.

Several possibles but CHARACTER TESTING is taken to make it third time lucky. Ezra Cee and Le Geyt are feared most.

1	4 1st (4) (7/2 -27%) Choisya		3.5 7/2(-27%)																															(4) Choisya 7/2, Three wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Goodwood in August. Good second of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to soft, 7/2) 26 days ago. Nudged up to career high mark but still respected. Progressive filly; latest second at Newmarket represented further improvement; contender.
2	6 2nd (6) (15/2 +38%) Julia Augusta		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(6) Julia Augusta 15/2, Lightly-raced C&D winner. 25/1, creditable 4 lengths sixth of 12 to Queen Aminatu in listed race at Lingfield (8f, AW) 13 days ago, slowly away. This is more realistic and she's not without hope of making the frame. C&D win as a 2yo but she has stood little racing since; still has potential; respected.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/1 +64%) Symbol Of Light		5 5/1(+64%)																															(3) Symbol Of Light 5/1, Won 3 of 4 starts for Charlie Appleby and didn't run too badly to make the frame at Newcastle on yard debut. Possibly unsuited by turf last time but mark still probably demands a bit more back on AW. Unexposed 4yo; repeat of Newcastle fourth in June would give him claims; excuses latest.
4	1 4th (1) (3/1 +14%) Notre Belle Bete		3 3/1(+14%)																															(1) Notre Belle Bete 3/1, C&D winner. Well-beaten last of 4 to Savvy Victory in listed race at Sandown (10f, good, 9/2). Off 136 days. Return to AW will suit but others are preferred. 4-8 on AW, including C&D; can go well fresh; Oisin Murphy back on board; no headgear today.
5th	2 5th (2) (18/1 -50%) Excel Power		18 18/1(-50%)																															(2) Excel Power 18/1, Eight wins from 26 Flat runs. 14/1, respectable third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 16 days ago. Stepping back in the right direction. Not far off his best when 3rd at Chelmsford 16 days ago; each-way claims after that.
6th	7 6th (7) (7/1 +0%) Catch The Paddy		7 7/1(+0%)																															(7) Catch The Paddy 7/1, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Newmarket (7f, good to firm, 16/1) 51 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Makes polytrack debut. Has good chance on form back up to 1m. Career-best effort when winning 7f handicap at Newmarket in September; up 4lb for AW debut.
7th	9 7th (9) (15/2 -15%) Caragio		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(9) Caragio 15/2, Resumed progress to win here in October but wasn't in same form when eighth of 12 here (7f, 4/1) 19 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Cosy 7f win here last month; not seen to best effect latest; up in class & needs even more.
8th	5 8th (5) (17/2 -89%) Hafeet Alain		8.5 17/2(-89%)																															(5) Hafeet Alain 17/2, Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at York (7.9f, heavy) 38 days ago, kept up to work. Has plenty on form on artificial surfaces and has to be respected from 3 lb higher mark. Polytrack winner; two wins on slow turf this year, latterly at York last month; e-w shout.
9th	8 9th (8) (33/1 -230%) Autumn Festival		33 33/1(-230%)																															(8) Autumn Festival 33/1, Eight wins from 30 Flat runs. Good second of 10 in handicap (10/1) at Doncaster (7f, heavy) 23 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Unproven on all-weather but he's not discounted if proving as effective on the surface. In good form on slow turf this autumn; fair mark if proving as effective on AW.

LTO Selection:

---

HAFEET ALAIN arrives following a recent success at York and the booking of Billy Loughnane makes him appeal considerably on his return to the all-weather. Catch The Paddy scored at Newmarket on his latest start and he is likely to enter the reckoning off a 4lb higher mark. Autumn Festival, Choisya and Symbol Of Light appeal most of the remainder.

Some sort of case can be made for each on the 9 runners, though CATCH THE PADDY makes most appeal having quickened up smartly to overcome a pace bias at Newmarket last time. Excel Power has been shaping as if he's building back up to top form and has edged further down the weights again, with Hafeet Alain also hard to dismiss on the back of a career-best effort.

Choisya is high on the list but SYMBOL OF LIGHT can bounce back from a low-key display on soft turf nine weeks ago.

1	11 1st (11) (8/1 +50%) Duke Of Oxford		8 8/1(+50%)																															(11) Duke Of Oxford 8/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, good seventh of 12 in handicap (28/1) at this course (11f) 14 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Significantly up in trip. Stayed on strongly from well back over 1m3f here latest; 2m could suit; unexposed.
2	9 2nd (9) (50/1 -213%) Zoran		50 50/1(-213%)																															(9) Zoran 50/1, Respectable third of 6 in handicap chase (3/1) at Fontwell (21.6f, good) 71 days ago. Fairly useful Flat handicapper when trained by Hugo Palmer (won at Newmarket penultimate start in 2020). Won minor handicap chase in August; first Flat run for 1,134 days; hard to assess.
3	6 3rd (6) (6/4 +40%) Perseus Way		1.5 6/4(+40%)																															(6) Perseus Way 6/4, Did well over hurdles for Gary Moore. First run back with this yard when fine second of 11 in handicap at this course (11f) 47 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Good shout. Useful hurdler; looks well handicapped on Flat but stamina for 2m has to be taken on trust.
4	7 4th (7) (33/1 -106%) September Power		33 33/1(-106%)																															(7) September Power 33/1, 3 wins from 11 runs this year. Latest win at York in September. Below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (16f, soft, 22/1) 17 days ago. Three wins in 2m handicaps this year; poor run latest but type to bounce back quickly.
5th	4 5th (4) (66/1 -313%) Lucky's Dream		66 66/1(-313%)																															(4) Lucky's Dream 66/1, 16/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 11 days ago. Up in trip. Weakened late on at Chelmsford 11 days ago; perhaps a shade high in the weights for now.
6th	8 6th (8) (4/1 +71%) Mostly Sunny		4 4/1(+71%)																															(8) Mostly Sunny 4/1, Bit below form 11½ lengths fourth of 12 to September Power in handicap (9/2) at York (16.2f, soft) 58 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Makes polytrack debut. Contender on this year's best but he was well behind September Power at York latest.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -60%) Carzola		16 16/1(-60%)																															(1) Carzola 16/1, 3 wins from 7 runs this year. Latest win at Doncaster in May. Off 5 months, 16/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, soft) 17 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Can fare better back on AW and one to consider. Made rapid progress in the spring, winning three 2m handicaps; run poorly the last twice.
8th	10 8th (10) (22/1 -38%) Western Stars		22 22/1(-38%)																															(10) Western Stars 22/1, Latest win at Windsor in October. Bit below form fifth of 15 in handicap at Newmarket (10f, soft, 11/1) 17 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Not taken lightly. Two wins for new yard at up to 11.5f; further progress required now upped markedly in trip.
9th	12 9th (12) (6/1 +0%) C'mon Kenny		6 6/1(+0%)																															(12) C'mon Kenny 6/1, 22/1, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D 26 days ago, his speed shining though as he pounced from last place in a falsely-run race. Can go well again up 3 lb. Got up late over C&D last month; unexposed at 2m and on AW; contender.
10th	13 10th (13) (10/1 +0%) World Without Love		10 10/1(+0%)																															(13) World Without Love 10/1, Creditable third of 8 in handicap (9/2) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 11 days ago. Back up in trip. This is tougher. Reliable enough but she'll need to raise her game a level to come out on top here.
11th	2 11th (2) (22/1 -214%) Oceanline		22 22/1(-214%)																															(2) Oceanline 22/1, 15/2, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Exeter (23.1f, soft) 27 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat, won on last Flat outing at Ascot. Goes well on AW. Out of sorts over hurdles this year but did win a Flat handicap at Ascot last month (2m).
12th	3 12th (3) (20/1 -300%) Andaleep		20 20/1(-300%)																															(3) Andaleep 20/1, Latest win at York in July. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at this course (11f, 16/1) 14 days ago, not clear run but keeping on. Significantly up in trip. Big player if he stays. Good run off this mark here two weeks ago (1m3f); same mark today; 2m the question mark.
13th	5 13th (5) (50/1 -213%) Dancing Harry		50 50/1(-213%)																															(5) Dancing Harry 50/1, Fourth of 6 in handicap (16/1) at Goodwood (14f, heavy) on return 86 days ago. Four turf wins at up to 1m6f (stays 2m); fair run at Goodwood in August; others more solid.
14th	14 14th (14) (200/1 -506%) Chilled Out		200 200/1(-506%)																															(14) Chilled Out 200/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, twelfth of 13 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 100 days ago. First run for yard after leaving J. P. Broderick. Tongue tie goes on. Poor hurdle form in Ireland this year; risky starting out for a new yard; tongue tied now.

LTO Selection:

---

PERSEUS WAY enjoyed a decent spell over hurdles for Gary Moore and returned to Owen Burrows with a promising display when runner-up here last month. The step up in trip promises to yield further improvement and he gets the vote at the expense of Dancing Harry, who was fourth at Goodwood in August, and World Without Love, who has been running consistently well of late.

PERSEUS WAY remains with low mileage on the level and can come out on top on the back of a fine run here 7 weeks ago. C&D-winner C'Mon Kenny, Carzola and Andaleep are also on the shortlist.

A competitive race in which DUKE OF OXFORD is fancied to step up on earlier form now his stamina is more fully tested.

1	6 1st (6) (11/2 -38%) Harry The Haggler		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(6) Harry The Haggler 11/2, Winner at Brighton in September. 5/2, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Brighton (1m, good) 41 days ago. Can make presence felt. Won a weak Brighton maiden in September; 0-7 in handicaps (at odds of 7-2 or shorter).
2	1 2nd (1) (25/1 -79%) Top Of The Class		25 25/1(-79%)																															(1) Top Of The Class 25/1, Modest form. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f, 6/1) 80 days ago. 0-8 but has shown promise, including here; below par latest; tricky draw to deal with.
3	8 3rd (8) (5/1 +69%) Vitalline		5 5/1(+69%)																															(8) Vitalline 5/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 20/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Windsor (1m, heavy) 28 days ago. N Uninspiring formfigures but the return to 7f could see him in a better light.

Creditable second of 7 in handicap (9/4) at Chelmsford (1m) 18 days ago, running on. Player. On a losing run but he's effective over C&D and comes here in good form; shortlisted.
5th	9 5th (9) (17/2 -6%) Split Elevens		8.5 17/2(-6%)																															(9) Split Elevens 17/2, Unreliable individual but did shape better than result when fifth of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (7f) 14 days ago, left poorly placed. Has fallen to a workable mark. Down to a handy mark and latest run can be upgraded; one to be interested in.
6th	5 6th (5) (7/1 +50%) Major Gatsby		7 7/1(+50%)																															(5) Major Gatsby 7/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in October. Bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 25 days ago. String of good runs this year prior to a lesser display last time (caught wide); e-w shout.
7th	12 7th (12) (20/1 -43%) Fact Or Fable		20 20/1(-43%)																															(12) Fact Or Fable 20/1, Course winner. Five wins from 24 runs this year, the latest at Chepstow in August. 12/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 24 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Two course wins; five turf wins in 2023 but busy spell looked to be catching up last month.
8th	2 8th (2) (11/2 +31%) Local Music		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(2) Local Music 11/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 17/2, second of 6 in C&D novice 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Unexposed. Placed in two small-field AW events for new yard; wide draw ahead of her handicap debut.
9th	4 9th (4) (33/1 -106%) Jesse Luc		33 33/1(-106%)																															(4) Jesse Luc 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 66/1, fifth of 12 in novice at Wolverhampton (7f) 24 days ago. Makes handicap debut. First signs of promise when fifth at Wolverhampton last month; more to come now h'capping.
10th	13 10th (13) (16/1 -45%) Bugle Beads		16 16/1(-45%)																															(13) Bugle Beads 16/1, Creditable fifth of 12 over C&D 19 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Pulled hard over C&D last time when her usual hood was left off; headgear again absent.
11th	14 11th (14) (16/1 -100%) Swiss Rowe		16 16/1(-100%)																															(14) Swiss Rowe 16/1, C&D winner. Creditable ¾-length fourth of 12 to Major Gatsby in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 20/1) 42 days ago. One to consider. C&D winner; ran okay behind Major Gatsby six weeks ago; others stronger for the win.
12th	11 12th (11) (25/1 -79%) Lady Amanda		25 25/1(-79%)																															(11) Lady Amanda 25/1, Course winner. Creditable sixth of 12 in C&D handicap 19 days ago, nearest finish. 6f winner here one year ago; never dangerous over C&D latest; more needed to win.
13th	10 13th (10) (15/2 +53%) Roar Emotion		7.5 15/2(+53%)																															(10) Roar Emotion 15/2, Course winner. 18/1 and blinkered first time, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (1m) 14 days ago. 9lb lower than for a 1m win here in April; struggled since but a flicker of promise latest.

LTO Selection:

---

A plum draw in stall one ought to aid the chances of dual course winner GOT NO DOLLARS. Recent efforts, most notably his narrow second at Chelmsford 18 days ago, would suggest the son of Showcasing is coming to hand, and he is weighted to go well from 9lb below his last winning mark. So Glorious sports first-time cheekpieces ahead of her handicap bow so it would come as no surprise to see an improved showing. Top Of The Class has taken a couple of backwards steps recently, but she might fare better now eased in class.

GOT NO DOLLARS has been knocking on the door in recent weeks and might be able to get his head back in front. Split Elevens caught the eye a bit last time and is second choice ahead of Swiss Rome and the selection's stablemate Harry The Haggler.

A wide-open handicap in which SPLIT ELEVENS is marginally preferred to Got No Dollars.

1	9 1st (9) (9/1 +0%) Trusty Scout		9 9/1(+0%)																															(9) Trusty Scout 9/1, Seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (16f, soft, 22/1) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Modest on the Flat, respectable on last Flat outing. Not completely dismissed back on the level. Recent Flat form is satisfactory but he's still seeking first handicap win.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +43%) Showlan Spirit		4 4/1(+43%)																															(6) Showlan Spirit 4/1, 66/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 13 days ago, missing break. Could get involved if everything drops right. Maiden; ran creditably over 1m2f last time and shapes as if this new trip will suit.
3	13 3rd (13) (14/1 -40%) Duchess		14 14/1(-40%)																															(13) Duchess 14/1, Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (33/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 30 days ago, faring best of those held up. Not dismissed. Now 0-17 but recent Wolverhampton form is respectable; could go well again.
4	12 4th (12) (50/1 -456%) Naadyaa		50 50/1(-456%)																															(12) Naadyaa 50/1, Remains a maiden after 26 Flat runs. Good third of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 66/1) 18 days ago, running on. Up in trip. Merits consideration. Close third over 9.5f last time; now 0-26 and has stamina to prove at this new trip.
5th	11 5th (11) (80/1 -60%) Aryaah		80 80/1(-60%)																															(11) Aryaah 80/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 66/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 24 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Hard to fancy. Poor efforts for new yard the last twice; opposed.
6th	1 6th (1) (13/2 +54%) Total Master		6.5 13/2(+54%)																															(1) Total Master 13/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, ninth of 13 in minor event at Chelmsford City (10f) 23 days ago. May do better switched to handicaps. May find his feet now handicapping but doesn't look obviously well treated off top weight.
7th	4 7th (4) (11/4 +75%) Kemerton		2.75 11/4(+75%)																															(4) Kemerton 11/4, Fifth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, good to soft, 12/1) 53 days ago. Sliding in the weights and interesting to see if he attracts support after a short break. Achieved his peak RPR at Kempton on sole AW run; possible improver back in this sphere.
8th	7 8th (7) (80/1 -220%) Kingston Sunflower		80 80/1(-220%)																															(7) Kingston Sunflower 80/1, Fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Hereford (16.2f, good) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Poor effort on latest Flat outing, so hard to weigh up at present. Modest chance on recent hurdles form and was a maiden on Flat in France.
9th	10 9th (10) (16/1 +0%) Silver Atom		16 16/1(+0%)																															(10) Silver Atom 16/1, Winner at Bath in September. Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, tenth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f, 14/1) 16 days ago. Others preferred. Successful at Bath and fourth at Newcastle in his two attempts at about 1m4f.
10th	2 10th (2) (10/1 +29%) Central City		10 10/1(+29%)																															(2) Central City 10/1, C&D winner. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 16/1), needing stronger gallop. Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Gay Kelleway. Worth a market check. Multiple winner; absent since January and now makes debut for new yard; market can guide.
11th	5 11th (5) (13/2 +19%) Khangai		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(5) Khangai 13/2, Winner at Chepstow in June. 9/1, below form sixth of 14 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, heavy) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Has stamina to prove and others make more appeal. Best form is at 1m2f on turf; something to prove over this new trip back on AW.
12th	8 12th (8) (9/2 -29%) Hazel Bear		4.5 9/2(-29%)																															(8) Hazel Bear 9/2, Hooded for 1st time, creditable third of 12 in handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 19 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again. 3yo maiden; ran well over 1m2f at Lingfield most recently, looking worth a crack at 1m4f.

LTO Selection:

KEMERTON's handicap rating has been in free-fall following a string of below-par efforts on the turf, but Ian Williams' charge, whose career-best performance came at this venue, might be able to take advantage of his reduced mark now back on the all-weather. Trusty Scout struggled over hurdles last month but he had been running to a consistent level on synthetic surfaces prior to that performance. With that in mind, he could be in the shake-up, along with Hazel Bear and handicap debutant Total Master.

FRAVANCO has been in reasonable form lately and has the opportunity to make the running dropped in grade, so this could be the ideal opening to capitalise on a handy mark. Showlan Spirit and Hazel Bear are both feasible threats.

Upped further in distance with the hood retained, HAZEL BEAR (nap) could well open her account. Showlan Spirit is second choice.

1	9 1st (9) (18/1 -125%) Philos		18 18/1(-125%)																															(9) Philos 18/1, Latest win at Lingfield in June. Last of 9 in handicap (9/2) at Wolverhampton (14f) 14 days ago, left poorly placed. Visor on 1st time. Not completely dismissed. Inconsistent since his two wins; good run is possible if he takes well to new headgear.
2	11 2nd (11) (25/1 -127%) Gilbert		25 25/1(-127%)																															(11) Gilbert 25/1, 3/1, bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, heavy) 32 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Back up in trip. Others preferred. Has won on AW but lacks consistency in this sphere (form figures read 7190).
3	6 3rd (6) (10/3 +17%) Largo Bay		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(6) Largo Bay 10/3, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at this C&D 33 days ago. Not taken lightly. Close third over C&D last month; now a stone below last winning mark; major player.
4	1 4th (1) (13/2 -30%) Dotties Star		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(1) Dotties Star 13/2, Good second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (10f, heavy, 7/1) 28 days ago, clear of rest. Solid claims. Clear second at Windsor last month, signalling that his turn may be near; one to consider.
5th	4 5th (4) (66/1 -313%) Perthshire		66 66/1(-313%)																															(4) Perthshire 66/1, 18/5, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f). Hasn't been seen for more than 2 years, so hard to know how much ability he retains. Maiden who has been absent for over two years; market should prove best guide.
6th	2 6th (2) (16/1 -78%) Lost In Time		16 16/1(-78%)																															(2) Lost In Time 16/1, Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 12/1) 13 days ago, not much room. Becoming well treated and threatening a bigger effort of late, so one to note. 0-15 on AW but latest effort (1m2f) suggests this new trip is worth exploring.
7th	14 7th (14) (9/2 +44%) Trackman		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(14) Trackman 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, soft, 4/1) 35 days ago, hampered. Better than the result last time and still unexposed. Unexposed 3yo who posted a promising effort on sole AW attempt (penultimate start).
8th	7 8th (7) (11/2 -38%) Churchill Rose		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(7) Churchill Rose 11/2, Winner at Yarmouth in August. 3/1, good second of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 24 days ago. Worth a chance to go one better. In-form 3yo; close second at Lingfield most recently; holds solid claims.
9th	13 9th (13) (33/1 -106%) A Touch Of Silver		33 33/1(-106%)																															(13) A Touch Of Silver 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 13 in minor event (150/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 23 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Pedigree suggests she's a possible improver upped to 1m4f on handicap debut.
10th	5 10th (5) (9/1 +25%) Velvet Vulcan		9 9/1(+25%)																															(5) Velvet Vulcan 9/1, Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f, 11/2) 16 days ago. Can't be ruled out. Unexposed maiden whose handicap form at 1m2f/1m4f is encouraging; respected.
11th	10 11th (10) (80/1 -60%) Savoy Brown		80 80/1(-60%)																															(10) Savoy Brown 80/1, C&D winner. 80/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 59 days ago. Others make more appeal. Has produced poor results since returned to handicap level.
12th	8 12th (8) (28/1 +15%) Sir Cilia		28 28/1(+15%)																															(8) Sir Cilia 28/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, tenth of 13 in minor event at Chelmsford City (10f) 23 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Brings weak form claims to this handicap debut.
13th	12 13th (12) (200/1 -100%) Broadshare		200 200/1(-100%)																															(12) Broadshare 200/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1 and blinkered for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at this course (16f). Off 145 days. Down in trip. Hard to fancy. No form claims.
14th	3 14th (3) (4/1 +43%) Mitigator		4 4/1(+43%)																															(3) Mitigator 4/1, Course winner. Below form fifth of 9 in handicap (15/8) at Chelmsford City (8f) 16 days ago. Should get the longer trip and is the type to bounce back quickly. Best recent effort came over 1m; won over 1m3f here last year for previous yard.

The vote goes to CHURCHILL ROSE, who was unfortunate to bump into a well-handicapped, and heavily-backed, rival at Lingfield last month. 7lb claimer Mikkel Mortensen keeps the ride aboard Charlie Fellowes' three-year-old and she can go one better from just a 1lb higher mark. Dotties Star occupied the same position at Windsor 28 days ago and the gelding, whose dam was a multiple all-weather winner, must be respected now back on an artificial surface. Largo Bay heads the remainder.

CHURCHILL ROSE arrives on the back of a solid showing when second at Lingfield and is worth a chance to get back to winning ways. Largo Bay should be thereabouts and Dotties Star can't be ruled out.

Back down in distance, VELVET VULCAN is taken to record a first success. Trackman is second choice.

About U.K Horse Racing

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

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

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