14:00 Fontwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (9/4 +25%) Musical Slave	2.25 9/4(+25%)	(3) Musical Slave 9/4, Useful sort at his best but not scored since February 2023. Continues to plummet in the weights and got closer than for a while when fourth of 10 at Newton Abbot (25.8f, good) a fortnight ago and any cut in the ground would enhance his chance. Ran okay at Newton Abbot last month but this veteran is regressive and inconsistent.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/8 +27%) Galloping Pride	1.375 11/8(+27%)	(4) Galloping Pride 11/8, Has reacted well to a visor when runner-up in 23f handicap chases at Worcester in recent months. Nudged up another 3 lb but it shouldn't prevent another prominent showing. Tongue tie added. Unexposed over fences and comes here after two creditable Worcester runs this summer.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/1 +58%) Wick Green	5 5/1(+58%)	(1) Wick Green 5/1, Arrives with something to prove, finishing well held for a second successive start at Worcester (23f, good) in August. Mark eases 3 lb but needs to show more. In very good form last autumn but has lost his way this year.
4	5 4th (5) (33/1 -633%) Marettimo	33 33/1(-633%)	(5) Marettimo 33/1, Back to winning ways in 3m handicap chase at Ludlow in April (2023) and posted solid placed efforts the last twice, latest when second at Warwick the following May. Off 16 months and others look better treated, though. Four-time chase winner; in good form when last in action, but that was spring 2023.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (11/2 -100%) Sublime Heights	5.5 11/2(-100%)	(2) Sublime Heights 11/2, Back on track back following a string of tame efforts when runner-up at his regular haunt, Plumpton (all 3 chase wins gained there), at the end of January. Offered little back there the following month but resumed winning ways when last seen at Chepstow (23.6f, soft) 6 months ago. Ended last season with small-field win but has a tendency to raze lazily; hard to predict.

14:00 Fontwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

MARETTIMO lost little in defeat when finishing a gallant second over an extended 3m1f at Warwick in May 2023, and he looks potentially well treated off a 2lb lower mark. Now returning from a lengthy break off his last winning mark, he looks the one to side with. Galloping Pride showed up well for a long way under a bold front-running ride before being worn down in the closing stages over 2m7f at Worcester in August, and he merits respect upped 3lb. Sublime Heights is also respected.

GALLOPING PRIDE has reacted well to the fitting of a visor in finishing runner-up on his last couple of starts so Emma Lavelle's 7-y-o is fancied to go a place better with a tongue tie added at the expense of Sublime Heights, who was last seen in winning action at Chepstow 6 months ago. Musical Slave isn't the force of old, but he got closer than for a while at Newton Abbot a fortnight ago so rounds off the shortlist.

The most obvious answer is GALLOPING PRIDE, who ran well in defeat in two Worcester chases this summer.

14:35 Fontwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 18f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (7/2 -56%) Reach For The Moon	3.5 7/2(-56%)	(3) Reach For The Moon 7/2, Smart Flat winner who struck at the fourth attempt in this sphere with a decisive display at Worcester (2m, good) in July. Probably has more to offer as a hurdler and he needs considering. Came good over hurdles with unchallenged win at Worcester in July; likely contender here.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/8 +61%) King William Rufus	1.375 11/8(+61%)	(2) King William Rufus 11/8, Opened hurdles account at the sixth attempt when making all in a Plumpton maiden (2m, good to soft) in March. Subsequent second in a big-field conditionals' handicap under Freddie Gordon was no backward step and he will be a danger to all if tuned-up following a break. In good form in the spring and has strong claims here if ready to roll after break.
3	1 3rd (1) (7/2 -75%) Hell Hound	3.5 7/2(-75%)	(1) Hell Hound 7/2, Runner-up in an Irish point and left his bumper debut form well behind when taking a 16-runner event at Ludlow in April. Followed that with a winning hurdles debut upped to 20.4f at Southwell (soft) and this 5-y-o is open to improvement. Won on hurdle debut in June but the form is nothing special; more will be needed here.
4	10 4th (10) (33/1 -175%) Luna Effect	33 33/1(-175%)	(10) Luna Effect 33/1, Some fair efforts on the Flat when in the care of Roger Varian but he hasn't fired in 3 starts for this yard and is probably worth taking on starting out over hurdles here. Below best on the Flat for new stable this summer and now 0-14 in that sphere.
5th	7 5th (7) (80/1 -471%) Tarbaan	80 80/1(-471%)	(7) Tarbaan 80/1, Four-time winner on the Flat but hasn't shown much spark this year and he's probably best watched on hurdles debut. Fairly useful on the Flat at his best but out of form when last seen in June.
6th	5 6th (5) (80/1 -220%) Getoverthathill	80 80/1(-220%)	(5) Getoverthathill 80/1, No show on sole start in Ireland in 2021 and while he landed a maiden point the following year, there were no positives to glean from his comeback run starting out for this yard in a 19f maiden here last month. Wide-margin Irish point winner in 2022 but returned with poor hurdle run here last month.
7th	6 7th (6) (13/2 +54%) Summer In Milan	6.5 13/2(+54%)	(6) Summer In Milan 13/2, Third sole start between the flags and showed ability on Rules debut when fourth of 10 in a 19f Cork bumper (heavy) in April. Should have a future in this sphere and it'll be interesting to see how he fares in the betting in relation to his stablemates, particularly King William Rufus. Placed in Irish point and fourth in Irish bumpers; bought for 30,000euros in the spring.
8th	11 8th (11) (100/1 -300%) Mutley Crew	100 100/1(-300%)	(11) Mutley Crew 100/1, Twice-raced maiden and much better effort when third of 14 in novice hurdle here (18.5f, good) in August. Needs to raise her game. Kept on for modest third in Newton Abbot maiden in August; needs to improve again here.
9th	9 9th (9) (50/1 -317%) Cher Monsieur	50 50/1(-317%)	(9) Cher Monsieur 50/1, Out of a dual French hurdles winner in France and placed both completed starts in points. Needs a second look in the betting on Rules debut, albeit Hell Hound is presumably the stable No 1. Placed in two Irish points in the spring and was bought for £25,000 in the spring.
4	4 \|F\| (4) (10/1 +70%) Dish Of The Day	10 10/1(+70%)	(4) Dish Of The Day 10/1, Hinted at ability sole outing in bumpers but he hasn't pulled up any trees in 2 starts over hurdles so far and is probably more one for handicaps in due course. Ran well to a point on hurdling debut but absent since pulled up at Ludlow in January.
10th	8 10th (8) (40/1 +20%) The Brickey Ranger	40 40/1(+20%)	(8) The Brickey Ranger 40/1, Winning pointer who made a sound start to Rules career when runner-up in a hunter at Tramore in April. However, he was safely held on hurdles debut for Ryan Potter at Uttoxeter in June and has since changed yards again. Promising in points/hunter chase in Ireland in the spring but made low-key hurdle debut.

14:35 Fontwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 18f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

REACH FOR THE MOON had a subsequent winner back in third when running out a comfortable winner over 2m at Worcester in July, and he gets the vote to bring up the double. Hell Hound looked a smart prospect when winning well over an extended 2m4f at Southwell when last seen, and he should remain competitive, while King William Rufus doubtless has the ability to play a hand in a race like this if on a going day.

It's probably best to concentrate on the three previous winners, headed by HELL HOUND, who did the job well when scoring on his hurdling bow at Southwell and he should have more to offer. That remark also applies to Reach For The Moon and he is feared most ahead of King William Rufus.

Reach For The Moon dominated a Worcester maiden in July but KING WILLIAM RUFUS brings some robest handicap form into this race.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (2/9 +84%) Rogue King	0.222222 2/9(+84%)	(1) Rogue King 2/9, Fair winner on the Flat at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in June. Has made a positive start to hurdling, building a promising debut to readily open his account at Plumpton last time, and he could have enough to defy the penalty. Won easily by 11l at Plumpton last month and commands respect under penalty.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/2 -17%) Golden Path	3.5 7/2(-17%)	(4) Golden Path 7/2, Made the frame in a couple of Flat maidens for Kevin Phillippart de Foy and created a good impression when making a winning hurdling/stable debut at Newton Abbot in June. Stopped quickly where next time but has had a break since and can't be written off. Newton Abbot winner in June; disappointing odds-on favourite there the following month.
3	7 3rd (7) (40/1 -60%) Path Of Stars	40 40/1(-60%)	(7) Path Of Stars 40/1, Well beaten in a AW Flat maiden for the Crisford stable in May and no show so far over hurdles. Looked a handful on Flat debut and has not shown much on first two hurdling attempts.
4	5 4th (5) (40/1 +20%) Surfer Dude	40 40/1(+20%)	(5) Surfer Dude 40/1, Modest maiden handicapper on Flat (stays 11.5f), mid-division last time. Up against it on hurdling bow. Modest maiden on the Flat; will be fine stamina-wise but still makes only limited appeal.
5th	6 5th (6) (50/1 +24%) Dont Blame Tequila	50 50/1(+24%)	(6) Dont Blame Tequila 50/1, Looks limited on the Flat and makes little appeal starting out in this sphere. Came last when 250-1 for 9.4f AW novice on debut in December.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (33/1 +0%) Bajan New Moon	33 33/1(+0%)	(2) Bajan New Moon 33/1, Offered little in 3 Flat runs for David Evans last year. Took to hurdling when third at Hexham (2m, soft) in June but hasn't reproduced that form since. Tried in cheekpieces. Close third of five in weak race on hurdling debut; soundly beaten three times since.

15:10 Fontwell Conditions Hurdle (Class 4) 18f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

GIVE IT TO ME OJ has shown a fair level of ability on the Flat this summer and, on his hurdles debut for a yard who are no strangers to success with horses of a similar profile, the son of Time Test gets the vote. Rogue King impressed when running out an easy winner over an extended 2m1f at Plumpton recently and it would be no surprise if he were to emerge as the main danger to the selection. Already a winner over hurdles, the unexposed Golden Path is also considered.

ROGUE KING had loads to spare when scoring at Plumpton 12 days ago and he's worth a chance to overcome the penalty for all that Give It To Me Oj is a notable recruit to this sphere based on both his Flat form and connections. Golden Path can also feature if she gets back on track.

Give It To Me Oj was quite useful on the Flat but preference is for the proven hurdling ability of easy Plumpton winner ROGUE KING.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (4/6 +67%) Stream Of Stars	0.666667 4/6(+67%)	(5) Stream Of Stars 4/6, Quickly matched his fairly useful Flat form over hurdles and all the more encouraging he made light of a huge absence (33 months) to assert late on to land 5-runner handicap hurdle here (19.1f) 26 days ago. Of interest provided this doesn't come too quick. 2m3f course winner last month, after a mammoth absence; could still be well handicapped.
2	4 2nd (4) (10/3 +33%) Trolley Boy	3.333333 10/3(+33%)	(4) Trolley Boy 10/3, 6-y-o who was steadily progressive when last seen, winning at Ludlow (15.7f) in spring of last year before good placed efforts at Worcester/Cartmel in summer 2023. Remains less exposed than most but the betting could well prove the best guide after 15 months off. Absent since close third in valuable Cartmel handicap last summer; watch the market.
3	1 3rd (1) (33/1 -633%) West To The Bridge	33 33/1(-633%)	(1) West To The Bridge 33/1, Exploits mixed during a light 2023/24 campaign but very much caught the eye when fourth on his final outing in 8-runner handicap at Bangor (19.5f, heavy) in March, finishing with running left. Returns with his yard in good form and he's respected. Good servant to connections over the years but would appeal much more on soft/heavy ground.
4	2 4th (2) (11/2 -144%) Enthused	5.5 11/2(-144%)	(2) Enthused 11/2, Most likeable sort who resumed progress to record a sixth win in this sphere in 8-runner handicap at Plumpton (2m) 12 days ago, leading final 100 yds. Looks sure to go well again under a penalty. Career-best form when winning at Plumpton recently; 3lb wrong under penalty here, though.
5th	3 5th (3) (9/1 -38%) Feel The Pinch	9 9/1(-38%)	(3) Feel The Pinch 9/1, Prolific since joining present stable, producing an effort right up there with his best when adding to his tally at Newton Abbot (16.7f) in July. Seemed to find the rise in class too much when tenth in Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen later that month and this more suitable. Not at best last time but has generally done very well for this stable; one to consider.

15:45 Fontwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 18f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

STREAM OF STARS returned from 986 days off the track to reward his patient connections with a smooth success over 2m3f here last month. Nigel Twiston-Davies' nine-year-old might have been let off lightly with only a 6lb rise for that victory and he could prove tough to beat. Enthused struck in commanding style in this grade at Plumpton last time and has to be respected, despite his 7lb penalty. Of the remainder, West To The Bridge makes the most appeal.

STREAM OF STARS represents a stable in fine form and made light of a huge absence (33 months) to make a winning return over further here 26 days ago. He's narrowly selected to come out on top from his revised mark, in the hope this doesn't come too soon. West To The Bridge very much caught the eye on his final start of last season and he, along with the highly admirable Enthused head up the dangers.

Bottomweight STREAM OF STARS (nap) travelled smoothly before fending off a spirited challenge from the runner-up here last month.

16:20 Fontwell Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (85/40 +23%) Lord Of Cheshire	2.125 85/40(+23%)	(2) Lord Of Cheshire 85/40, Lightly-raced hurdler who bagged his third win in 19f handicap at Warwick in November. Has followed that with a couple of solid efforts in defeat (fell at the final flight at Sandown) but not so good when last of 10 at Kempton (21f, soft) in February. Sure to be well prepared for this chase bow. 3-9 over hurdles; off since below-par run in February but still of interest on chase debut.
2	1 2nd (1) (10/3 -90%) Jupiter Du Gite	3.333333 10/3(-90%)	(1) Jupiter Du Gite 10/3, Not straightforward but proved more tractable switched to fences, runner-up on debut in this sphere at Hereford prior to going one better in good style at Uttoxeter in March. Brushed aside back there 3 weeks later and off since but he's in the right hands. Headstrong front-runner; hard to catch on his good days but has very mixed record.
3	4 3rd (4) (2/1 +43%) Duhallow Tommy	2 2/1(+43%)	(4) Duhallow Tommy 2/1, Proved to be a different proposition switched to fences following a wind op last term, winning 3 times (at up to 19.8f) at Plumpton and finding further improvement when second of 7 at Newbury. Tame effort at Kempton in April but he can get back on track this season. Took well to chasing in early part of this year; further progress is possible this season.
4	3 4th (3) (4/1 -45%) Midnight Jewel	4 4/1(-45%)	(3) Midnight Jewel 4/1, Enhanced his superb strike rate returned to the larger obstacles when making all in 5-runner handicap over C&D 4 weeks ago. Seen to good effect that day but 4 lb rise won't prevent another very bold bid. Gamely made all over C&D last month and now 4-8 over fences.

16:20 Fontwell Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Midnight Jewel made every yard of the running to score by a neck over C&D last month and he is expected to mount a bold bid off 4lb higher. However, he might come out second best to LORD OF CHESHIRE, who ran too bad to be true when finishing last at Kempton most recently. If the son of Diamond Boy can reproduce the level of form that he produced in his two starts at the back end of last year at Warwick and Haydock, he could be the one to beat. Duhallow Tommy can beat Jupiter Du Gite in the battle for third.

DUHALLOW TOMMY ended last season with a disappointing effort but he'd progressed very nicely over fences prior to that so he's taken to regain the winning thread on reappearance. Midnight Jewel will attempt to make his fitness edge on the field count and is very dangerous if allowed to get into a rhythm.

In a tricky race the safest option is probably match-fit 8yo MIDNIGHT JEWEL, who held on well when making all over C&D last month.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (7/1 -40%) Batwomen	7 7/1(-40%)	(4) Batwomen 7/1, Runner-up in C&D maiden hurdles 9 months apart. Neil Mulholland has his team in good nick and she appeals as one who can go on to better things in handicaps. Second over C&D on both hurdling starts but probably needs improvement on handicap debut.
2	3 2nd (3) (12/1 +14%) Ted's Friend	12 12/1(+14%)	(3) Ted's Friend 12/1, Fairly useful hurdler at best who has been lightly raced since a 23f Worcester success in September 2022 but his latest fourth back at Worcester suggests he retains a good chunk of his ability. Well below best this year but last month's run was a big step back in the right direction.
3	2 3rd (2) (7/2 -56%) Greatness Awaits	3.5 7/2(-56%)	(2) Greatness Awaits 7/2, Been in good form back over hurdles, scoring at Newton Abbot in June and runner-up on all 3 outings since. Should go well again. Second three times since his win in June and may still be on the upgrade; big player.
4	9 4th (9) (10/3 +72%) Footloose Man	3.333333 10/3(+72%)	(9) Footloose Man 10/3, Placed in bumpers and left previous hurdling efforts behind when opening his account in a 9-runner conditional jockeys event over slightly shorter here in August. Not in quite the same form when fourth at Bangor a week later. 2m1f course winner in August but held since; needs to kick on again.
5th	10 5th (10) (13/2 +80%) Ipsos Pierji	6.5 13/2(+80%)	(10) Ipsos Pierji 13/2, Little to get excited about in 5 outings in 2022/23, including 2 handicaps. Too soon to write off but a watching brief is the percentage call after a long absence unless the betting strongly hints otherwise. Unexposed over hurdles but absent since never-dangerous eighth at Exeter in April 2023.
6th	1 6th (1) (20/1 -344%) Baddesley	20 20/1(-344%)	(1) Baddesley 20/1, Temperamental sort but did win over hurdles and fences at Plumpton last season. Not easy to predict what mood he'll be in on his return from 6 months off. Inconsistent in recent years but won when fresh last autumn and resumes on a workable mark.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/1 -100%) Sir Rock	9 9/1(-100%)	(6) Sir Rock 9/1, Course hurdle winner who added chase wins at Plumpton and this venue last winter. Close second back at Plumpton (again) when last seen in March. Contender if resuming in similar form back hurdling. Took well to chasing last season; needs to transfer that improvement back to hurdles.
8th	7 8th (7) (20/1 -67%) Gata Ban	20 20/1(-67%)	(7) Gata Ban 20/1, Made a winning handicap debut at Taunton (19f) in December 2022. Absent since but returns with her stable in form and it'll be interesting to see how she compares in the betting to stablemate Batwomen. Not seen since clearcut Taunton win in 2022 but remains unexposed; market may guide.
9th	8 9th (8) (17/2 +47%) Pennsylvanie	8.5 17/2(+47%)	(8) Pennsylvanie 17/2, Fair form over hurdles in France. Largely struggled for Alexandra Dunn subsequently but she was second at this course last September. One to keep an eye in the betting having switched to the Moore yard ahead of this first outing for 11 months. Makes stable debut after one-year absence but good market support will need to be heeded.

16:55 Fontwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Although GREATNESS AWAITS has crept up in the handicap after three runner-up efforts since his victory at Newton Abbot in June, he still looks capable of scoring off his current rating. The reappearing Baddesley capped off last season with a victory over fences at Plumpton and he's not discounted reverting to the smaller obstacles, while Ted's Friend lurks on an attractive mark.

GREATNESS AWAITS arrives at the top of his game and is preferred to Neil Mulholland handicap newcomer Batwomen. Ted's Friend showed last time he's down to a mark he can be competitive from and completes the shortlist.

This might go to GREATNESS AWAITS, who has remained in good form since his win in June and is slightly ahead of the handicapper.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (4/1 -14%) Broughshane	4 4/1(-14%)	(7) Broughshane 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Well-held fourth of 6 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft) 6 months ago. This winning Irish pointer remains with potential now going into handicaps though. Impresive Irish point winner who displayed promise in two Chepstow maidens last winter.
2	8 2nd (8) (6/4 +81%) Golden Ambition	1.5 6/4(+81%)	(8) Golden Ambition 6/4, Modest maiden hurdler. Tailed off when unseated rider 2 out in handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good) 71 days ago. Blinkers back on with something to prove. Ran well two starts ago but tailed off when losing rider last time; now 0-8 over hurdles.
3	2 3rd (2) (16/1 +0%) Red Windsor	16 16/1(+0%)	(2) Red Windsor 16/1, Fairly useful winner over hurdles at his best but just one effort of note last season and became increasingly temperamental. Others preferred. Out of sorts at end of last season but will be dangerous if 162-day break has refeshed him.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 -29%) Ede'iffs Rock	18 18/1(-29%)	(5) Ede'iffs Rock 18/1, Consistent sort who opened her account after a frustrating run of placed efforts in 13-runner handicap at Leicester in January. Stamina stretched over 3m at Wincanton next time and needs to hit the ground running after 7 months off. Held on gamely for heavy-ground win in January; absent since lesser effort in February.
5th	9 5th (9) (9/1 -100%) Miss Fedora	9 9/1(-100%)	(9) Miss Fedora 9/1, Got back on track reverted to this sphere when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Cartmel (17.2f, soft) 41 days ago. This C&D winner.is firmly in the picture despite a 5 lb rise. Won when back over hurdles at Cartmel in August and remains on a good mark.
6th	3 6th (3) (16/1 +0%) Beat The Heat	16 16/1(+0%)	(3) Beat The Heat 16/1, 4-time course winner, latest in June, and running creditably when fell 2 out in handicap hurdle here (17.7f, good) 10 days ago. Also took this in 2022 so he's In the mix with visor back on. C&D winner in first-time visor in June but not in the same form again since.
7th	6 7th (6) (3/1 -33%) Kalif D'airy	3 3/1(-33%)	(6) Kalif D'airy 3/1, Ninth in Cheltenham listed bumper on debut and built on that when third in a pair of juvenile hurdles at Newbury and Hereford in the winter. Open to improvement on his return/handicap debut. Interesting. Placed in two juvenile hurdles last season; moves into handicaps with potential.
8th	10 8th (10) (14/1 +13%) What's My Line	14 14/1(+13%)	(10) What's My Line 14/1, Course winner and in good form last term until only tenth of 15 in handicap here (17.7f, good to firm) 168 days ago, going in snatches. Needs to bounce back. Won off similar mark when fresh last autumn but others appeal more all the same.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (12/1 +14%) Kelce	12 12/1(+14%)	(4) Kelce 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden for Colm Miurphy. Off 16 months since eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20.4f, good) but should sill have more to offer. Worth a market check. 0-5 over hurdles in Ireland; makes stable debut after long absence; market may guide.

Disappointing favourite at Worcester last time but cheekpieces are applied now and she's worth another chance. Ran well two starts ago but flopped badly last time; now tried in cheekpieces.

17:30 Fontwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Having hit the frame on both hurdle outings to date, Kalif D'airy warrants consideration on his handicap/seasonal bow. An opening mark of 102 looks workable for the four-year-old and he isn't taken lightly. However, C&D winner MISS FEDORA outbattled a subsequent winner when regaining the winning thread at Cartmel in August and the Seamus Mullins-trained mare is the one to beat off a 5lb higher rating. Broughshane is also worth a glance in the betting on his entry into handicap company.

Plenty with chances but KALIF D'AIRY appeals as a likely improver for Gary and Josh Moore now going into handicaps so edges the vote from Broughshane, who fluffed his lines when fourth at Huntingdon last time but remains capable of better on his first venture into handicap company. Recent Cartmel scorer Miss Fedora and top-weight Presenting Nelly can also have a say.

Not much has gone to plan for BROUGHSHANE since his easy Irish point win in February 2022 but he looks very interesting in this grade.
