1	9 1st (9) (7/1 +42%) Toor Khov		7 7/1(+42%)																															(9) Toor Khov 7/1, Made too much use of when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Navan on his latest run. Effective around 3m, but needs to show more now switching back to chasing. Not in great form over hurdles; pulled up sole point start; chase bow; others appeal more.
2	6 2nd (6) (14/1 +22%) Insouciant Dallier		14 14/1(+22%)																															(6) Insouciant Dallier 14/1, Below form when comfortably held back in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Effective from 2m2f to 3m but remains inconsistent, and now returns to chasing needing to find improvement. Maiden hurdle winner at Sligo for this yard; 2nd in a point but bit to find on chase bow.
3	7 3rd (7) (6/4 +25%) John The Diva		1.5 6/4(+25%)																															(7) John The Diva 6/4, Returned to form when second, beaten 5l, in a beginners' chase at Punchestown latest, just tiring late on after a bad error when upped in trip. Effective from 2m to 2m6f and has a good chance here. Runner-up at Punchestown this month (22.5f, soft); big chance in a race of this standard.
4	4 4th (4) (33/1 -50%) Goody Four Shoes		33 33/1(-50%)																															(4) Goody Four Shoes 33/1, Pulled up in the Listed Novice Handicap Hurdle Series Final at Fairyhouse last time. Returning from a long layoff and now making his chase debut, he is effective over 2m3f to 2m6f but may need this outing. Didn't show much over hurdles; from staying jumping family so worth a look on chase debut.
5th	2 5th (2) (5/2 -25%) Cowper Hall		2.5 5/2(-25%)																															(2) Cowper Hall 5/2, Behind when unseated in a novice chase at Tramore last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time, and while effective from 2m to 2m4f, the longer trip may suit although he looks more of a handicap type. Won over hurdles at Fairyhouse on penultimate (2m4f, soft); unseated on chase bow; player.
8	8 |F| (8) (9/1 -29%) Live To Laugh		9 9/1(-29%)																															(8) Live To Laugh 9/1, Improved on his hurdle form when finishing 2l third on chase debut in a beginners' chase at Cork last time. Effective over 2m4f to 3m and should improve further over fences. Third on chase bow; will need to take a step forward; Darragh O'Keeffe a notable booking.
10	10 |PU| (10) (5/1 +69%) Roxhill Roise		5 5/1(+69%)																															(10) Roxhill Roise 5/1, A better effort when upped in trip, though still well beaten, in a handicap chase here last time. Effective over 2m to 2m6f, but may require more time to become competitive. Finished last of the finishers in course handicap on latest; likely to need more time.
3	3 |PU| (3) (50/1 -79%) Figurehead		50 50/1(-79%)																															(3) Figurehead 50/1, Outclassed when finishing down the field on handicap debut in a handicap chase at Leopardstown most recently. Effective at 2m to 2m2f, but appears exposed now and others make greater appeal. No wins in a varied 44-race career, although ran well in a couple of beginners' this term.
1	1 |PU| (1) (150/1 -50%) Bajan Excell		150 150/1(-50%)																															(1) Bajan Excell 150/1, Pulled up in a beginners' chase at Punchestown on his latest start. Formerly a useful hurdler effective around 2m, but has plenty to prove at present and needs to show much more than in recent outings. Winning hurdler for Gavin Cromwell in 2020; never a factor in 2 chase starts for this yard.

JOHN THE DIVA has been runner-up in a couple of similar events and wouldn't be winning out of turn now. The nine-year-old chased home Banter At The Bar at Punchestown last time, despite a bad mistake at the second last. He won twice over similar trips to this over hurdles, including breaking his maiden at this venue. Hello Jack comes here off the back of a solid enough placed effort in handicap company and looks an obvious danger. Cowper Hall made little impression before unseating on his chase debut at Tramore but is capable of better and stepping up in trip may help.

Course winner JOHN THE DIVA bumped into a big improver at Punchestown but was 30 lengths clear of the third. He can go one better

1	1 1st (1) (1/1 +33%) Coolanna		1 1/1(+33%)																															(1) Coolanna 1/1, Made a promising debut under rules when tried in a tongue-tie and winning a novice hurdle at Uttoxeter by 8l last time. Effective at 2m6f on heavy ground, she has more to come and may defy a penalty. Carries a penalty but she sets the standard on her heavy-ground win at Uttoxeter.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/5 +31%) Strong Run		1.2 6/5(+31%)																															(2) Strong Run 6/5, Did not need to improve to get off the mark over hurdles when winning a maiden hurdle at Southwell by 4l last time. Effective at 2m to 2m4f on soft and good ground, with more to come from this promising mare. Bumper form reads well and odds-on winner of a maiden hurdle at Southwell.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 -25%) Katie's Melody		5 5/1(-25%)																															(6) Katie's Melody 5/1, Had every chance and ran to form, albeit comfortably held, in a novice hurdle at Warwick last time. Effective at 2m to 3m on soft and good ground, but she has yet to match her bumper form and is probably one for handicaps. Beaten 24l (2m7f) and 21l (2m5f; again good to soft) in her races over hurdles.
4	3 4th (3) (11/1 +50%) Ballynorth		11 11/1(+50%)																															(3) Ballynorth 11/1, Fell mid-race in a novice hurdle at Warwick latest. Effective at 3m in points and well fancied on debut, so she should progress with further experience under rules. Has to step up on all her form but she's well bred and in top hands.
5th	5 5th (5) (200/1 -100%) Dalcassian Girl		200 200/1(-100%)																															(5) Dalcassian Girl 200/1, Had a modest debut when finishing down the field in a bumper at Chepstow most recently. Off a short break and placed in a point, but plenty more is needed under rules. Second of four in a point; trailed in a very remote last on bumper debut at Chepstow.
6th	9 6th (9) (20/1 -25%) Poet's Muse		20 20/1(-25%)																															(9) Poet's Muse 20/1, Improved to get off the mark when winning a maiden point at Vauterhill by 3/4l last time. Effective at 3m in points and brings potential to rules racing. The winner of a 3m good-ground British point last May, beating one who is 0-9.
7th	11 7th (11) (100/1 -300%) Wassailing Along		100 100/1(-300%)																															(11) Wassailing Along 100/1, The yard won this race last year, but she failed to build on her debut when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Fontwell last time. Effective at 2m and acts with cut, although she needs another run to obtain a mark. Dropped out for a remote sixth at Fontwell and finished some way behind Bunny Bee.
8th	10 8th (10) (150/1 -500%) Svelte Silhouette		150 150/1(-500%)																															(10) Svelte Silhouette 150/1, Unseated in a novice hurdle at Fontwell latest. Effective at 2m on good ground but needs more over hurdles to become competitive. Behind when unseating on hurdle debut at Fontwell; Bunny Bee was runner-up.
9th	8 9th (8) (150/1 +0%) Moonlight Stride		150 150/1(+0%)																															(8) Moonlight Stride 150/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Exeter latest. She is with a good yard but looks to need more time before showing her best under rules. Eighth of nine in a bumper and was 200-1 when pulled up in an Exeter maiden; lots to prove.
7	7 |U| (7) (250/1 -150%) Miss Jaffa Cake		250 250/1(-150%)																															(7) Miss Jaffa Cake 250/1, Again ran to a poor level when last of nine at Worcester latest. Has no worthwhile form to date, although a longer trip may suit. Failed to complete in two points and tailed off in two novice hurdles at about 2m1f.
4	4 |PU| (4) (66/1 -200%) Bunny Bee		66 66/1(-200%)																															(4) Bunny Bee 66/1, Made a promising debut when second, beaten 13l, in a novice hurdle at Fontwell latest. The trainer is in form and she is effective at 2m on soft ground, although she may do better over further in time. Questionable what she achieved when a well-beaten second at Fontwell.

Strong Run was highly tried in bumpers last season and broke her hurdling duck at the second attempt last month. The mare can improve to go close again, but she might struggle to contain COOLANNA. The daughter of Affinisea hit the woodwork in a couple of point-to-points before streaking clear on her Rules debut at Uttoxeter, a performance that suggests she might be useful. Katie's Melody can chase the pair home.

The penalised winners appeal most and COOLANNA is the one proven under these conditions. She looks a thorough stayer.

1	7 1st (7) (9/4 +44%) Diamond Geezer		2.25 9/4(+44%)																															(7) Diamond Geezer 9/4, Made mistakes but still ran to form when fourth, beaten 12l, in a handicap hurdle at Lingfield last time, possibly outstaying late over the longer trip. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and his recent form is strong. Made the breakthrough at Perth in October but he's been well held in both runs since.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/1 +21%) Eloi Du Puy		11 11/1(+21%)																															(3) Eloi Du Puy 11/1, Travelled well but did not find much and was a bit below form when beaten 9l in a handicap hurdle at Kelso last time, possibly outstaying the trip. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time and he is best around 2 1/2m. Has dropped to an attractive mark and could go well. On last winning mark and he could be dangerous on this drop back in trip; cheekpieces on.
3	11 3rd (11) (12/1 -33%) El Jefe		12 12/1(-33%)																															(11) El Jefe 12/1, Ran to form but was unsuited by how the race developed when finishing third, beaten 15l, in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time. Effective at 2m and fairly treated if building on that recent revival, though he needs a good pace. Six-time hurdle winner but he didn't fire last time and has never won over this far.
4	9 4th (9) (5/1 -43%) Rock Dj		5 5/1(-43%)																															(9) Rock Dj 5/1, Improved on his final qualifying run when beaten 4 1/4l in a novice hurdle at Wetherby last time. He returns from a short break, is effective around 2 1/2m and looks fairly treated on his opening handicap mark. Showed progressive form in novice events and he should have more to offer in handicaps.
5th	10 5th (10) (20/1 -11%) Langdale Lane		20 20/1(-11%)																															(10) Langdale Lane 20/1, Unseated rider in a handicap chase here last time and returns from a short break. Effective around 2 1/2m, but his form has tailed off since a lay-off. Won over C&D in 2023 but he's not seen much action since and others are preferred.
6th	4 6th (4) (15/2 +46%) Follow Charlie		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(4) Follow Charlie 15/2, Won by 3 1/4l off a 5lb lower mark here three starts ago. Effective at 2m4f and acts on various ground, but he wants a drop back in trip and his current mark demands more. Has patchy profile but he's a triple C&D winner who looked stretched over 3m last time.
7th	5 7th (5) (5/1 +64%) Kool Raoul		5 5/1(+64%)																															(5) Kool Raoul 5/1, Made mistakes but still ran to form when just tiring late, beaten 9 1/4l, on his handicap debut over a longer trip at Musselburgh. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and progressive for the most part. 0-7 but he still has potential and is a possible improver on this drop back in trip.
8th	8 8th (8) (8/1 +60%) Coconut Splash		8 8/1(+60%)																															(8) Coconut Splash 8/1, Had every chance but was below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time; effective over 2m4f to 3m but others look stronger and he is a weak finisher. Veteran whose sole win was in 2020 and he's been well held in three runs for current yard.
9th	6 9th (6) (14/1 +13%) Wolfspear		14 14/1(+13%)																															(6) Wolfspear 14/1, Had too much to do when ridden to see out the trip and finished fourth, beaten 8 1/4l, in a handicap hurdle at Musselburgh last time. The trainer is in form and he is generally consistent over around 2 1/2m. On long losing run but was a good third at Kelso (2m5f) in November; could be in the mix.
2	2 |PU| (2) (16/1 -14%) One Mill Harbour		16 16/1(-14%)																															(2) One Mill Harbour 16/1, Won a handicap by 7l off a 4lb higher mark at Hexham two starts ago. Needed the run and did plenty early when comfortably held in a novice hurdle last time; off a short break and well treated on old form. Lightly raced 9yo and he needs watching in market on his second run after a long absence.
13	13 |PU| (13) (25/1 +38%) Jakana		25 25/1(+38%)																															(13) Jakana 25/1, Had every chance but was below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Musselburgh last time. She returns from a short break, is effective around 2 1/2m, but is currently out of form. No progress since joining current yard and she's now 0-7 in handicaps; down the list.

Diamond Geezer hasn't really kicked on as expected after his Perth triumph, for all that his defeats at Warwick and Lingfield have been respectable. Olly Murphy's charge may come up short once more, with SARACEN BEAU fancied to be the beneficiary. The seven-year-old found only a subsequent winner too strong on his chase bow at Bangor and, back under the tutelage of Nicky Richards, reverting to timber holds no fears. Eloi Du Puy is also of interest in first-time cheekpieces.

The vote goes to the unexposed SARACEN BEAU (nap), who was runner-up in a chase in October and is only 1lb higher back over hurdles.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 -45%) Space Invasion		4 4/1(-45%)																															(1) Space Invasion 4/1, Improved again when travelling best in pole position to win a maiden here by 1/2l last time. Effective at 7f and suited by 1m, acts on AW, but although he rallied gamely when challenged latest, he has probably plateaued now. Improved to win a C&D maiden three weeks ago; unexposed but opening mark demands more.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/1 -10%) Luminare		11 11/1(-10%)																															(4) Luminare 11/1, Scored by 2l off a 3lb lower mark at Newcastle two starts ago but was below form when sixth beaten 4 1/2l off 74 last time. Effective at 5-7f and acts on AW; that nursery success may have been flattering. Won two of her six starts but not at best last time and needs the new trip to spark extra.
3	3 3rd (3) (2/1 -33%) Sovereign Wealth		2 2/1(-33%)																															(3) Sovereign Wealth 2/1, Suited by a step up in trip when outclassing rivals and punching clear to win a novice at Wolverhampton by 8 1/2l last time. A top course jockey takes the ride; suited by 8/9f, acts on AW, and is very reliable. Unexposed at 1m and should follow up. Bolted up in a weak maiden at Wolverhampton this month; should remain competitive.
4	5 4th (5) (3/1 +25%) Maskatto		3 3/1(+25%)																															(5) Maskatto 3/1, Improved when suited by a step up to 1m and winning a maiden here by a head last time. Suited by 1m, bred to stay 12f, and acts on AW, with probably more to come over further. Collared Foothold late over C&D this month; further progress possible; contender.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/2 +39%) Foothold		5.5 11/2(+39%)																															(6) Foothold 11/2, Allowed to dictate and ran to form when second beaten 1 1/2l in a novice here last time, having every chance. Effective from 7f to 1m, may get further, acts on any, but may have plateaued. Closely matched with Maskatto on this month's C&D run; not ruled out on handicap debut.
6th	2 6th (2) (8/1 +11%) Try Storm Cat		8 8/1(+11%)																															(2) Try Storm Cat 8/1, Stayed and ran to form off a break when second beaten 4 1/2l in a handicap at Kempton last time, having stepped up in trip. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time; effective from a stiff 6f to 1m and acts on AW. Second of four on recent AW debut; dropped 2lb and headgear is now given a go.

Maskatto needed every yard of the trip to score over C&D at the start of the month and it wouldn't be a huge shock if Andrew Balding's colt wanted further already to be seen to best effect. With that in mind, preference is for SPACE INVASION. He got off the mark here at the third time of asking and an opening mark of 80 appears to be more than fair. Sovereign Wealth and Try Storm Cat complete the shortlist.

Recent C&D winners Space Invasion and MASKATTO appeal most. The selection remains capable of better at the trip.

1	3 1st (3) (25/1 +50%) Cold Old Fire		25 25/1(+50%)																															(3) Cold Old Fire 25/1, Ran to form on return when comfortably held in a maiden hunter chase at Limerick last time. Effective over 2m6f-3m with cut but still has a bit to find. 2-11 in points, hunter chase form not good enough to suggest a chance of winning here.
2	10 2nd (10) (33/1 -18%) Our Story		33 33/1(-18%)																															(10) Our Story 33/1, Step back in the right direction when fourth, beaten 18l, in an open point at Dromahane latest. Comes here off a short break, is effective at 3m in points, but needs more. No track experience, 2-11 in points, needs to step up on form shown in the autumn campaign.
3	1 3rd (1) (17/2 +15%) Benwisken		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(1) Benwisken 17/2, Improved to get off the mark when winning a maiden point at Ballindenisk by 7l last time. Effective at 3m in points and brings some potential to this rules debut. Beat last Sunday's Dungarvan winner Vals Charm at Ballindenisk, stiff task in this company.
4	6 4th (6) (20/1 -25%) Made U Look		20 20/1(-25%)																															(6) Made U Look 20/1, Ran to form when finishing 18l third in an open point at Cragmore on his most recent run. Effective over 2m6f-3m with cut and is not ruled out back under rules. 40-1 when finishing in front of a below-par Keep On Dreaming at Limerick, behind Nibbles.
5th	9 5th (9) (20/1 +9%) Nibbles		20 20/1(+9%)																															(9) Nibbles 20/1, Never travelled and could not go the gallop when down in trip, being comfortably held in a maiden hunter chase at Clonmel last time. Tongue-tie is applied for the first time; effective at 2m6f-3m, a point winner but a longstanding maiden under rules. Had several of these rivals behind at Limerick, held by Magic Sadler on Clonmel running.
7	7 |U| (7) (1/2 +38%) Magic Sadler		0.5 1/2(+38%)																															(7) Magic Sadler 1/2, Improved back under rules when pulling clear with a useful rival to finish second, beaten 3l, in a hunter chase at Clonmel latest. Effective from 2m4f-3m, prolific in points and could find this a good opening. Highly dependable in points, form pick on his second at Clonmel, rider value for 7lb claim.
5	5 |PU| (5) (7/2 -17%) Keep On Dreaming		3.5 7/2(-17%)																															(5) Keep On Dreaming 7/2, Bit below form with hood removed well beaten in a maiden hunter chase at Limerick latest; effective around 3m on a sound surface; chance in a reapplied hood. Top connections, Limerick run at Christmas was too bad to be true, risky but could feature.
8	8 |PU| (8) (14/1 +72%) Mister Loolah		14 14/1(+72%)																															(8) Mister Loolah 14/1, Made too much use of when comfortably held in a maiden hunter chase at Clonmel last time. Effective over 2m-2m6f under rules and can do better in hunter chases. Point winner, has also run well over hurdles, held by Magic Sadler on Clonmel running.
2	2 |PU| (2) (40/1 -21%) Bloomhill		40 40/1(-21%)																															(2) Bloomhill 40/1, Below previous point form when finishing 25l third in a novice point at Turtulla on his most recent run. Effective at 2m under rules and 3m in points but has a bit to prove back from a long absence. Won twice in points for Philip Fenton in 2022/23 campaign, modest track form as a hurdler.

MAGIC SADLER ran a cracker for Emily Costello at Clonmel three weeks ago and can go one better now. Pat Doyle's charge was in fine form in point-to-points towards the end of last year, with three wins. He made I Walked The Line work for his victory at Clonmel recently, with the pair pulling well clear. A similar effort may be enough now. Keep On Dreaming was a touch disappointing at Limerick when sent to post favourite. He's capable of better. Gale Force Jet has won two points recently and is another for the shortlist.

A prolific winner in points and highly dependable since a burst blood vessel mishap last season, MAGIC SADLER looks the part here

Effective around 2m4f on testing ground, she is progressing over fences and has a good chance in this. Heavy-ground winner; only 1lb higher than for narrow defeat here; only two completed.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/4 -22%) Atreides		2.75 11/4(-22%)																															(4) Atreides 11/4, Scored by 9l off an 8lb lower mark at Fontwell on his penultimate start but departed early at Wincanton latest.

Trainer is in form and he is effective at 2m to 2m4f on good to soft and good, though he has yet to match his hurdle form over fences. Dual hurdle winner but he's been no closer than 17l in three runs over fences.

Effective at 2m to 2m4f on heavy and good to soft and has been in decent form of late, now back chasing. Became disappointing for Harry Fry but it's been a respectable start for his current yard.
5th	6 5th (6) (18/1 +55%) Italian Spirit		18 18/1(+55%)																															(6) Italian Spirit 18/1, No-show from off the pace and needed the run when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Leicester latest. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time and, usually held up, he is effective at 2m to 2m4f on soft and good but has a bit to prove. Bumper/hurdle winner; heavy defeat in his final handicap hurdle after a long absence.

Returning from a long layoff, he is effective at 2m4f on soft ground but needs to bounce back on his chase debut. Lightly raced gelding who was beaten only 2l in one of his handicaps over hurdles.
7th	5 7th (5) (7/1 -40%) Thankyouandplease		7 7/1(-40%)																															(5) Thankyouandplease 7/1, Below form after clipping heels when tenth, beaten 46l off 103 last time, and is 2lb lower here. Effective around 2m on heavy and soft ground and may do better now returned to chasing. Running well over hurdles until last time; has a pointing background; handles heavy.

ATREIDES didn't get far when attempting to complete a hat-trick over C&D on Boxing Day, in a race which saw Mutley Crew fill the runner-up spot. Both have been given a month off since and are the pair the focus on, but Neil Mulholland's charge can put that blemish behind him to regain the winning thread. The Blueberry One makes his fencing bow following a lengthy absence but must not be underestimated.

Only two completed when MUTLEY CREW went close here on Boxing Day but it was still a good run and she's fine on heavy ground.

1	1 1st (1) (1/5 +10%) Wendigo		0.2 1/5(+10%)																															(1) Wendigo 1/5, Outpaced before improving again but not appearing suited by the track when beaten 4l into third in the Grade 1 Kauto Star Novices' Chase at Kempton last time. Effective at 2 1/2-3m, with debut form franked and more to come over fences at 3m+ on stiffer tracks. Likely to outclass these. Third in Grade 1 at Kempton on Boxing Day and he stands out as the one to beat.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 -14%) Maximilian		4 4/1(-14%)																															(3) Maximilian 4/1, Ran to form up in trip when second, beaten 1l, in a beginners' chase at Doncaster last time, finding less late after a battle. Cheekpieces are fitted for the first time; effective at 2 3/4-3m and a formerly classy hurdler who should be winning again soon. Showed last month he retains a good chunk of his ability; the likely danger to Wendigo.
2	2 |PU| (2) (22/1 +21%) Donny Boy		22 22/1(+21%)																															(2) Donny Boy 22/1, Pulled up in the Rehearsal Handicap Chase at Newcastle on his latest start and returns here after a long absence. Effective over 3m, he had been consistent beforehand but is experienced and may lack fitness. Absent since pulled up in November 2024; this 10yo faces a very tough task on his return.

Grade 2 John Francome winner WENDIGO acquitted himself really well when third in the Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day and he should take all the beating in these calmer waters. Jamie Snowden's charge has enough class to concede 6lb to his rivals, with Maximilian rating as the biggest threat. The 10-year-old has posted two creditable efforts in defeat over fences and can keep the selection honest. Donny Boy might be out of his depth on his comeback.

Grade 2 novice chase winner WENDIGO drops back in grade and this is an excellent opportunity to get back on the scoresheet.

1	1 1st (1) (5/4 +55%) Poke The Bear		1.25 5/4(+55%)																															(1) Poke The Bear 5/4, Returned to form down in trip, benefitting from a pace collapse when landing a handicap here by a length last time off a 5lb lower mark. Effective at 7–8f and arrives in fine form. Course record of 131; arrives in top form and that will count for plenty in this race.
2	2 2nd (2) (5/2 +38%) Volendam		2.5 5/2(+38%)																															(2) Volendam 5/2, Tired late after being forced wide when fourth, beaten 6 1/2l, in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. In good form at around 1m at the end of last year. Has a strong jockey and trainer combination but is still a maiden. Perhaps not straightforward but Rossa Ryan booked and conditions won't faze her.
3	7 3rd (7) (12/1 -9%) Unknown Journey		12 12/1(-9%)																															(7) Unknown Journey 12/1, Raced too freely when beaten 6l in a classified race over this course last time. Trained by a top course handler but drawn wide and needs more to get off the mark. Exposed 17-race maiden; nearly 6l behind Celtic John here latest; opposable.
4	6 4th (6) (18/1 -227%) Charles Morin		18 18/1(-227%)																															(6) Charles Morin 18/1, Ran respectably once again at this venue when finishing third, beaten 5 1/4l, in a handicap here last time. May now be better suited by a longer trip. In fair form last summer but over much longer trips; absent 205 days; stable run two here.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/1 +31%) World Of Darcy		11 11/1(+31%)																															(8) World Of Darcy 11/1, Did too much too soon when upped in trip and failed to see it out, beaten 5l in a classified race at Southwell last time. Better suited by 6f but stamina concerns resurface. Hasn't built on last month's second here (6f) in three runs since; stamina query at 1m.
6th	4 6th (4) (22/1 +21%) Resilient Lady		22 22/1(+21%)																															(4) Resilient Lady 22/1, Never threatened when beaten 5l in a handicap over this course last time. Overall profile offers little in the way of reliable form. Modest maiden; returning to a mile can help but others are more persuasive.
7th	3 7th (3) (5/1 +17%) Dion Baker		5 5/1(+17%)																															(3) Dion Baker 5/1, Had every chance but ran below form when beaten 6l in a handicap at Chelmsford last time. Drawn wide here and a bounce back is needed. 0-29 on AW and 0-16 over 1m+; down in the weights but not a solid option.
8th	9 8th (9) (50/1 -100%) Reel Power		50 50/1(-100%)																															(9) Reel Power 50/1, Set the race up for closers when beaten 6l in a handicap here last time. Returns from a short break but has been out of form since coming back from a layoff. 6l behind Poke The Bear over C&D last month; overall profile unconvincing; opposable.
9th	10 9th (10) (50/1 0%) Havana's Dream		50 50/1(0%)																															(10) Havana's Dream 50/1, Has yet to show any worthwhile form and returns from a break. Overall profile offers little encouragement at this stage. Unplaced in all nine starts; step up to 1m not enough to tempt.

POKE THE BEAR won here over 7f last Saturday and the return to a mile will definitely play to his strengths. Despite carrying a 5lb penalty for that success, the four-year-old may prove a tough nut to crack. Celtic John won a classified event over C&D when last seen and commands plenty of respect, while Volendam appeals most of the remainder.

Poke The Bear and CELTIC JOHN (nap) arrive on the back of course wins and the latter, whose success has been franked, gets the nod.

1	14 1st (14) (5/6 +39%) Charme De Faust		0.833333 5/6(+39%)																															(14) Charme De Faust 5/6, Made a promising debut when runner-up, beaten 9 1/2l, in a mares' hurdle at Auteuil. Trainer is in form; effective at 2m2f on very soft ground and has joined a top yard, so should go well on Irish debut. Eyecatching second in France; Triumph Hurdle entry; the choice of Paul Townend.
2	10 2nd (10) (6/1 -50%) Dawn Coming		6 6/1(-50%)																															(10) Dawn Coming 6/1, Ran to form when second, beaten 5l, in a maiden hurdle at Cork last time. Effective around 2m on ground with cut and holds a definite chance in this company. Runner-up to a smart type at Cork on latest; might need further but has place claims.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/1 +0%) Mode Avion		7 7/1(+0%)																															(3) Mode Avion 7/1, Ran to form when fourth, beaten 15l, in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m and on heavy ground, and likely to have more to offer with further experience. Form of Punchestown run has worked out; behind Dawn Coming at Limerick; can improve.
4	7 4th (7) (2/1 +20%) Ismahane		2 2/1(+20%)																															(7) Ismahane 2/1, Improved when upped in trip, finishing second beaten 3 1/4l in the Premio St Leger Italiano (Group 3) at San Siro last time. Effective up to 15f on the Flat and brings significant potential to hurdles. German Flat winner; 2nd in Italian St Leger; changed hands for 72,000euros; Triumph entry.
5th	9 5th (9) (12/1 -33%) Beauvallon		12 12/1(-33%)																															(9) Beauvallon 12/1, Below form when tried in blinkers and beaten 9 1/4l in a 3yo race at Deauville last time. Does not overly appeal on Flat form but has since joined a top yard. Didn't live up to price-tag on Flat in France; hurdle/stable bow; Triumph entry.
6th	4 6th (4) (20/1 -11%) Annie's Angel		20 20/1(-11%)																															(4) Annie's Angel 20/1, Again below form when beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap at Galway last time. Effective between 8f and 10f on the Flat and likely up against it on her hurdles debut. Decent Flat form; loves the mud; not to be dismissed with conditions to suit; hurdle bow.
7th	1 7th (1) (66/1 -164%) Blue Train		66 66/1(-164%)																															(1) Blue Train 66/1, Too keen but showed plenty on hurdles debut when fourth, beaten 14l, in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Hood applied for the first time here; effective at 2m on soft ground and improvement is possible. Fair fourth on stable/hurdle debut at Fairyhouse; form hasn't worked out; watch betting.
8th	6 8th (6) (150/1 -20%) Dream Angel		150 150/1(-20%)																															(6) Dream Angel 150/1, A no-show from off the pace when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Looks the type who may do better when sent handicapping. Limited on the Flat and big prices when tailed off on both hurdle starts; safe to rule out.
9th	5 9th (5) (150/1 -200%) Concert Party		150 150/1(-200%)																															(5) Concert Party 150/1, Ran to form but was comfortably held in a graduation hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective at 2m on ground with cut and may fare better once switched to handicaps. Dual winner for Richard Hannon; big prices when down the field first two hurdle starts.
10th	12 10th (12) (50/1 0%) O'grady Cracker		50 50/1(0%)																															(12) O'grady Cracker 50/1, Outpaced but showed improvement from his debut when upped in trip and well beaten in a juvenile hurdle at Leopardstown last time. May need more time and could be better suited by handicaps. Failed to live up to market expectations at Naas on debut; no improvement at Leopardstown.
11th	11 11th (11) (250/1 -25%) John Dixen		250 250/1(-25%)																															(11) John Dixen 250/1, Again ran to a poor level when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last time. May need more time before being able to show improvement. Pulled up before two out on debut at Fairyhouse; tailed off there and at Punchestown since.
12th	2 12th (2) (200/1 -100%) Crest Of Light		200 200/1(-100%)																															(2) Crest Of Light 200/1, A no-show on hurdles debut when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Usually held up in his races and may require more time before showing his best. Dual AW winner in Britain; 200-1 when never a factor on hurdle/stable bow at Leopardstown.

French import CHARME DE FAUST could be another one for Willie Mullins here. The filly was runner-up on her sole outing in her native land at Auteuil last September. She was held up well off the pace then and survived a blunder at the last before chasing home easy winner Maskina. Dawn Coming chased home a smart sort in The Reverend at Cork earlier this month and is entitled to play a big part now. He had Mode Avion behind in fourth when third to Bertutea at Limerick over Christmas and may be able to confirm that form. Triumph Hurdle entry Ismahane is a debutante to note.

ISMAHANE produced strong Flat form in Europe and she could be tough to beat if she takes to this discipline

1	18 1st (18) (5/4 +23%) Pourquoi Pas Papa		1.25 5/4(+23%)																															(18) Pourquoi Pas Papa 5/4, Ran to form when second, beaten 9 1/2l, in a maiden hurdle at Exeter last time. Effective at 2m with cut and looks to have more to come for a top stable. Has bumped into promising opposition in his two runs for Paul Nicholls.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/4 -22%) Aguellid		2.75 11/4(-22%)																															(1) Aguellid 11/4, Keen and with too much to do behind an all-the-way winner, but ran to form when second, beaten 3/4l, in a novice hurdle at Hereford last time. Effective at 2m-2m2f with cut and capable of better, likely in handicaps if ridden more positively. Pulled clear with his market rival when going down narrowly at Hereford.
3	6 3rd (6) (14/1 -211%) Galashiels		14 14/1(-211%)																															(6) Galashiels 14/1, Needed the run on hurdle debut when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Chepstow last time. Trainer is in form and, usually held up, he was effective at 12f on the Flat, suited by cut, and showed useful form in France, so likely has more to offer for this yard. 1m4f Listed winner in France but has seemingly regressed; made a quiet hurdle debut.
4	10 4th (10) (2/1 +56%) Mossy Fen Coolio		2 2/1(+56%)																															(10) Mossy Fen Coolio 2/1, Very promising debut when a 25l winner in a maiden point at Tallow on debut. Returning from a long layoff, he was effective at 3m in points and looks an interesting recruit to hurdles. Won his point by 25l so brings consideration potential to his rules career.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 +44%) Bright Legend		5 5/1(+44%)																															(3) Bright Legend 5/1, Keen, went clear and made too much use of when finishing a 15l third in a novice hurdle at Taunton most recently. Effective at 2m-2m4f but has yet to match Irish form for his new stable and looks vulnerable to an improver. Ability respected but will need to find something on his two runs for current yard.
6th	13 6th (13) (250/1 -525%) Tobi Kanobee		250 250/1(-525%)																															(13) Tobi Kanobee 250/1, Improved when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle here last time. Effective around 2m with cut and looks the type to do better when handicapping. Poor pointer; ran okay to be fifth here two weeks ago (soft) but no more than that.
7th	17 7th (17) (150/1 -127%) Spring Serenade		150 150/1(-127%)																															(17) Spring Serenade 150/1, Showed some promise on debut when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Ffos Las on her only start. Effective at 2m with cut and should improve. Went off 50-1 for a 2m novice hurdle at Ffos Las and was readily left behind.
8th	5 8th (5) (125/1 -279%) For Old Times Sake		125 125/1(-279%)																															(5) For Old Times Sake 125/1, Below debut form and not given a hard time when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Fontwell last time. Likely to need much further than 2m and has yet to match his point-to-point promise. Placed in a couple of Irish points but it's been a quiet start over hurdles.
9th	7 9th (7) (100/1 -203%) Harbour Light		100 100/1(-203%)																															(7) Harbour Light 100/1, Improved for debut experience but was not given a hard time when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Hereford last time. Effective at 2m and may need a stiffer track and longer trip over hurdles. Doesn't look good enough to win a maiden and was well behind Aguellid at Hereford.
10th	14 10th (14) (150/1 -436%) Viva Vincente		150 150/1(-436%)																															(14) Viva Vincente 150/1, Showed minor promise on debut when well beaten in a bumper at Chepstow on his only start. Off a short break and should have more to come once upped in trip. At 10-1 he made little impression in a Chepstow bumper (good to soft).
11th	8 11th (8) (150/1 -200%) Lord Chamberlain		150 150/1(-200%)																															(8) Lord Chamberlain 150/1, Too keen and below form when fourth, beaten 8 1/2l, in a handicap at Southwell last time. Absent for a very lengthy period, now tries hurdling with a tongue-tie for the first time and is difficult to fancy. Ability on the Flat but 0-5; sold on for 4,000gns and he's been a long-while absent.
12th	15 12th (15) (150/1 -50%) Galactic Princess		150 150/1(-50%)																															(15) Galactic Princess 150/1, A bit better than the result when tried in a hood and comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Taunton last time. Looks a type to do better when handicapping. Uncompetitive on two visits to Taunton, latterly in a hood.
13th	11 13th (11) (150/1 -50%) Richforadaay		150 150/1(-50%)																															(11) Richforadaay 150/1, A moderate debut under rules when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle here last time. Effective at 3m in points but others are preferred. Little substance to his form in British points and was out the back in a maiden here.
14th	12 14th (12) (100/1 -25%) Stone Cold		100 100/1(-25%)																															(12) Stone Cold 100/1, Outpaced and looked in need of a stiffer test when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Chepstow last time. May need further than 2m over hurdles. Mild promse in Ireland and never counted on stable/hurdle debut at Chepstow when 100-1.
15th	4 15th (4) (250/1 -67%) Forest Hills		250 250/1(-67%)																															(4) Forest Hills 250/1, Green and made mistakes when needing the run on hurdle debut, finishing well beaten in a novice hurdle at Taunton last time. Has plenty to prove over hurdles. Flat winner who showed very little on his switch to hurdles at Taunton (150-1).
2	2 |PU| (2) (150/1 -127%) Anthracite		150 150/1(-127%)																															(2) Anthracite 150/1, A no-show from off the pace when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Taunton last time. Has a bit to prove at present. Low-grade Flat racer who was beaten a long way on recent hurdling debut at Taunton.
16	16 |PU| (16) (250/1 -213%) Mistress Fox		250 250/1(-213%)																															(16) Mistress Fox 250/1, Keen and stopped quickly when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Fontwell last time. Has shown nothing in bumpers or over hurdles and has it all to prove. Has yet to show any signs of winning potential and can be readily dismissed.

Overexuberance has hindered AGUELLID's finishing effort so far, though it hasn't stopped him from running well. This big-field scenario could suit him perfectly given a solid pace and that makes him of greater appeal than Pourquoi Pas Papa, who receives 12lb from the selection whilst being rated 2lb higher. Bright Legend has yet to fire since arriving from Ireland but he's shown enough to suggest a race of this nature is within his compass.

There's no depth to this maiden. POURQUOI PAS PAPA has been beaten by promising horses in his two British races.

1	5 1st (5) (8/11 +0%) Stede Bonnet		0.727273 8/11(+0%)																															(5) Stede Bonnet 8/11, Improved under an aggressive ride at a sharp track when winning a maiden hurdle at Tramore by 5l last time. Effective at 2m; a dual bumper winner who is progressing over hurdles. Won at Tramore on New Year's Day and holds leading claims under his 7lb penalty.
2	2 2nd (2) (12/1 -100%) Irandando Has		12 12/1(-100%)																															(2) Irandando Has 12/1, Benefited from a drop in class on stable debut when winning a maiden hurdle at Southwell by a neck last time, having needed the run after a wind op. Effective over 2m to 2 1/2m; Listed placed in France and sets the standard, so could defy a penalty. Defied mammoth absence for 25-1 win at Southwell; this is tougher, but a likeable prospect.
3	7 3rd (7) (6/1 -20%) Irish Champ		6 6/1(-20%)																															(7) Irish Champ 6/1, Made a very promising debut in a good race when fourth, beaten 14l, in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time; effective at 2 1/2m and, as a point winner, should be winning soon over hurdles. Point winner who also showed promise on sole hurdle start and could be in the mix.
4	4 4th (4) (7/2 -27%) Sanilam		3.5 7/2(-27%)																															(4) Sanilam 7/2, Improved on his second start after a wind op when winning a maiden hurdle here by 3 1/2l last time. Effective at 2m; steadily progressive and has a good record at Ayr. Made it 2-2 here when winning over C&D last time and he may well have more to offer.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 +36%) Cavalier Du Luy		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(1) Cavalier Du Luy 9/2, Ran to form when benefiting from a drop in grade to win a maiden hurdle at Kelso by 2l last time. Effective at 2m; debut form has been franked, but the latest win was weak enough form and more is required to defy a penalty. Won at Kelso last month; further improvement needed to defy a penalty in this better race.
6th	9 6th (9) (100/1 -203%) Valtteri Its James		100 100/1(-203%)																															(9) Valtteri Its James 100/1, Outpaced and making a modest rules debut when finishing down the field in a bumper at Newcastle most recently. A point winner who may need further than 2m under rules. Point winner; things should click under rules at some point but tailed off in sole bumper.
7th	6 7th (6) (200/1 +0%) Belvedere Bhoy		200 200/1(+0%)																															(6) Belvedere Bhoy 200/1, Green and making mistakes when never involved and well beaten in a novice hurdle here last time. Usually held up; was well fancied on bumper debut but has yet to show much under rules. Hasn't shown much across his four starts and tailed off at 300-1 over C&D last time.
8th	8 8th (8) (300/1 -50%) Run Baby Run		300 300/1(-50%)																															(8) Run Baby Run 300/1, Has yet to show any real signs of ability in his runs so far. Off a short break and still yet to show anything of note. Pulled up at massive odds over C&D (soft) on first two starts; cheekpieces go on.

Those carrying a 7lb penalty appear to have this between them and STEDE BONNET could be the pick. Gordon Elliott's charge was able to build on his hurdling introduction to finish second over C&D, before winning in fine style at Tramore. Given an official rating of 125 following that performance, he should be too strong for the likes of Sanilam, Irandando Has and Kelso winner Cavalier Du Luy.

Having shown strong form when winning a maiden hurdle at Tramore on New Year's Day, STEDE BONNET can follow up for Gordon Elliott.

1	1 1st (1) (15/8 -25%) Royal Jet		1.875 15/8(-25%)																															(1) Royal Jet 15/8, Improved a little on recent efforts when winning a classified race at Southwell by 1 1/4l last time. Trained by a top course handler, usually held up, effective at 7-8f and capable back in a handicap. Arrives in top form and should go well despite having to concede 5lb all round.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +38%) Stacey Racey		4 4/1(+38%)																															(6) Stacey Racey 4/1, Disappointed back up in trip when beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap here last time. Had been in good form beforehand, with the trainer going well, but has a wide draw to contend with. Should be a big player at this level, especially with her return to action behind her.

Effective at 7-8f on the all-weather and has run into form at this track, with the possibility of a bit more to come. Beat two next-time-out winners when landing a similar C&D event 19 days ago; respected.

Effective at 7-8f on the all-weather, but now a veteran operating at a low level and remains erratic. Not beaten far over C&D on Saturday but that extended her losing run to 18.

Was in good form beforehand and can go well back up in trip, though slow starts remain an issue. Needs luck in running but conditions no problem and arrives in good order.
6th	5 6th (5) (16/1 -256%) Sarabi		16 16/1(-256%)																															(5) Sarabi 16/1, Returned to form down in class when second, beaten a length, in a classified race here latest on first run in a visor. Has a wide draw and stamina to prove, but looks fairly treated back in a handicap. 6f win here last summer; solid effort 17 days ago and worth another crack at 7f.
7th	4 7th (4) (16/1 -33%) Huntly Lodge		16 16/1(-33%)																															(4) Huntly Lodge 16/1, Produced a better effort down in class when fourth, beaten 2l, in a classified race here last time, doing best of those up with the pace. Blinkers are tried first time but needs more back in a handicap. 0-8 but ran creditably dropped to this grade here latest (1m); blinkers now added; chance.
8th	9 8th (9) (17/2 +29%) Zaltalla		8.5 17/2(+29%)																															(9) Zaltalla 17/2, Possibly challenged a bit too soon when fourth, beaten 2 1/4l, in a classified race here latest. Suited by 7-8f and has a chance at best in this grade. Form of latest C&D 4th has been franked but over 2l behind Tilsworth Max on that occasion.
9th	3 9th (3) (40/1 -100%) Henry Tudor		40 40/1(-100%)																															(3) Henry Tudor 40/1, Below form but did just about see out the trip when fourth, beaten 6l, in a handicap here latest. Has speed in the pedigree but is yet to shine since entering handicaps. 0-7 but has shown a whiff of ability; drops in grade but needs a step forward to win.

Royal Jet has won two of his last three starts and is entitled to the utmost respect, as is Tilsworth Max, who defeated a pair of subsequent scorers over C&D. Sarabi is worth a second look, despite her lack of proven stamina, but a chance can be taken on HUNTLY LODGE. Amanda Perrett's charge took a big step forward to finish fourth over the mile here and is still lightly raced. The drop in trip could be beneficial and the application of first-time blinkers might eke out more too.

Keiran Burke looks to have a strong hand and VITALLINE is marginally preferred to stablemate Stacey Racey.

1	2 1st (2) (1/5 +30%) El Cairos		0.2 1/5(+30%)																															(2) El Cairos 1/5, Quickened impressively before stumbling and falling after the last in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown most recent. Effective at 2m and best on a sound surface, he should win easily on his way to the festival. Would have won easily on stable debut but for a fall; Supreme second fav' will win this.
2	13 2nd (13) (3/1 +10%) Roc Dino		3 3/1(+10%)																															(13) Roc Dino 3/1, The yard has won two of the last five runnings and he ran to form when second, beaten 38l behind an impressive winner, in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse latest. Trainer is in form but faces a tough task against El Cairos. Beaten 38l by stablemate Mighty Park; will need to improve a chunk to trouble El Cairos.
3	1 3rd (1) (40/1 +39%) Ehteyat		40 40/1(+39%)																															(1) Ehteyat 40/1, Stopped quickly when pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Tramore last time. That was a disappointing hurdles debut and he is likely to need more time to find his feet over obstacles. Three-time Flat winner; pulled up on hurdle debut at Tramore on New Year's Day.
4	17 4th (17) (66/1 +0%) Shallow Bowles		66 66/1(+0%)																															(17) Shallow Bowles 66/1, Did not stay when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m and there may be more to come dropped back in trip. Good run at Limerick but jumping issues evident next time; handles the mud.
5th	18 5th (18) (12/1 +0%) Tangara Bay		12 12/1(+0%)																															(18) Tangara Bay 12/1, Improved on her bumper form when fourth, beaten 10l, in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon most recent. Effective at 2m-2m4f but the drop in trip may not suit. Strong bumper run; stayed on well late when fourth at Roscommon; this trip a worry.

There should be more to come with further experience. Outran 150-1 odds when fourth of 17 behind a smart type at Cork; place chance.
7th	7 7th (7) (25/1 -79%) Lord Of The Locke		25 25/1(-79%)																															(7) Lord Of The Locke 25/1, Showed some promise on debut when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m-2m3f with cut and there is more to come over hurdles. Favourite when fifth at Limerick on hurdle bow (2m3f, soft to heavy); this demands more.
8th	5 8th (5) (150/1 +25%) Deise Crystal		150 150/1(+25%)																															(5) Deise Crystal 150/1, Showed some promise on debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse. The drop in trip raises a question and it is not certain this distance will suit. Didn't show much on hurdle debut; plenty of stamina in the pedigree; this looks too short.
9th	6 9th (6) (14/1 0%) How's The Head		14 14/1(0%)																															(6) How's The Head 14/1, Improved from his debut when fourth, beaten 11l, in a maiden hurdle at Tramore last time. Returns from a short break, is effective at 2m-2m3f, and has been steadily progressing. Place chance judged on Limerick second but probably wants better ground than forecast.
10th	12 10th (12) (200/1 +0%) Quietrunsthedon		200 200/1(+0%)																															(12) Quietrunsthedon 200/1, Recorded his best effort so far when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Tramore last time. Usually held up and may show more when moving into handicaps. Pulled up at Clonmel on debut; never a factor at Thurles and Tramore; one for handicaps.
11th	9 11th (9) (125/1 +17%) Max Meridius		125 125/1(+17%)																															(9) Max Meridius 125/1, Found little and ran below form when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel most recent. Has plenty to prove for now. No apparent chance judged on his remote finishes in this sphere at Fairyhouse and Clonmel.
12th	3 12th (3) (125/1 +17%) Ballindenisk		125 125/1(+17%)																															(3) Ballindenisk 125/1, Showed minor promise when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork most recent. Returns from a short break, is effective at 3m in points, and is likely to need further and handicaps. Point winner on soft; tailed off in a Punchestown bumper and Cork hurdle.
13th	16 13th (16) (200/1 +0%) Ode To Joy		200 200/1(+0%)																															(16) Ode To Joy 200/1, Made a poor hurdles debut when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse most recent. Needs to show more to figure over hurdles. Contested two bumpers and a maiden hurdle without showing any sign of winning potential.
14th	8 14th (8) (200/1 -33%) Masons Apron		200 200/1(-33%)																															(8) Masons Apron 200/1, Improved on his debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel most recent. Likely to do better when stepped up in trip. Huge prices when tailed off at Punchestown and Clonmel; easy to look elsewhere.
15th	4 15th (4) (200/1 +0%) Ballyhasty		200 200/1(+0%)																															(4) Ballyhasty 200/1, Made a poor debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse on his only start. He looks in need of more time before becoming competitive. Beaten out of sight behind a very impressive winner on debut at Fairyhouse this month.
16th	11 16th (11) (66/1 +0%) Poppycon		66 66/1(+0%)																															(11) Poppycon 66/1, Made a promising debut under rules when third, beaten 29l, in a maiden hurdle at Tramore most recent. Effective at 2m1f and improvement is likely. Placed in 2-6 point-to-points; remote third of 13 on hurdle debut at Tramore; can't fancy.
17th	14 17th (14) (200/1 -33%) Thetwocharlies		200 200/1(-33%)																															(14) Thetwocharlies 200/1, An Affinisea gelding and a half-brother to Granny's Secret, who was useful at 20f. This looks a tough task on debut. Dam out of half-sister to Festival Bumper winner Wither Or Which; best watched.
18th	15 18th (15) (100/1 +50%) Two Can Plan		100 100/1(+50%)																															(15) Two Can Plan 100/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Tramore most recent. Faces an uphill task for now and looks to need more time. Pulled up in average Tramore maiden hurdle on New Year's Day; impossible to recommend.

EL CAIROS is obviously going to be a very short price here as he bids for a confidence-boosting success. The No Risk At All gelding was a smart bumper performer last season, finishing fifth in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham and runner-up in a strong contest at Punchestown. He was set for an impressive start over timber at Leopardstown over Christmas when stumbling and falling after the last flight. Roc Dino couldn't lay a glove on impressive stablemate Mighty Park at Fairyhouse and may have to play second fiddle again. Tangara Bay has shown promise but will find easier opportunities.

A final flight mishap robbed EL CAIROS of an impressive victory at Leopardstown's Christmas meeting and he should make amends in style

Lightly raced 6yo but he's struggled over hurdles, including in a 2m3f handicap.
2	12 2nd (12) (11/1 -29%) Watchoutitscookie		11 11/1(-29%)																															(12) Watchoutitscookie 11/1, Finished below form when down the field in a handicap chase at Taunton last time. The trainer is in form, he is effective over 3m on soft or good to soft ground, and a return to hurdles looks a plus. Close second over C&D in November but he struggled back over fences latest; risks attached.
3	4 3rd (4) (11/1 -10%) Ourbrowneyedgirl		11 11/1(-10%)																															(4) Ourbrowneyedgirl 11/1, Put in a poor effort when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Exeter last time. Effective at around 2m and acts with cut, while longer trips could suit now she goes handicapping. Still unexposed but she needs a transformation upped in trip on handicap debut.
4	6 4th (6) (12/1 -9%) Badentaggart		12 12/1(-9%)																															(6) Badentaggart 12/1, Was outpaced and may have found the ground a bit quick when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Taunton last time. Effective at around 2m4f on soft ground and likely to do better in handicaps. Has struggled in three hurdle runs and needs to show a lot more now switched to a handicap.
5th	10 5th (10) (15/2 +38%) Inchagoill Lady		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(10) Inchagoill Lady 15/2, Ran a bit below form when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Taunton last time. Effective from 2m2f to 2m6f on a sound surface and, being unreliable over fences, now returns to hurdling. Just 1-20 under rules but she's on workable mark and has possibilities back over hurdles.
6th	5 6th (5) (11/4 +8%) Bradman		2.75 11/4(+8%)																															(5) Bradman 11/4, All but fell early, travelled, did it cosily, improved landing a handicap by 2l off a 6lb lower mark at Fontwell last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on S and GS; progressing over hurdles now he's had his head in front. Won at Fontwell (2m3f) in his last two starts and he's open to more progress; respected.
7th	13 7th (13) (6/1 +57%) Gorcombe And Wise		6 6/1(+57%)																															(13) Gorcombe And Wise 6/1, Was outpaced and perhaps not suited by conditions when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Newton Abbot last time. Returns from a long layoff and may do better now he goes handicapping. Handicap newcomer but he needs plenty of improvement after 285 days off.
3	3 |PU| (3) (12/1 -85%) Tractor Jack		12 12/1(-85%)																															(3) Tractor Jack 12/1, Needed the run when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Exeter last time. Returns from a short break and could improve now handicapping over a longer trip, but needs to. Unexposed handicap newcomer and he could show a lot more at this new trip.
9	9 |PU| (9) (13/2 +74%) Devilsrollthedice		6.5 13/2(+74%)																															(9) Devilsrollthedice 13/2, Ran to form but was comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Exeter last time. Effective at 2m to 2m4f and there may be more to come now he goes handicapping over a longer trip. Lightly raced 6yo but he needs improvement back up in trip on handicap debut.
11	11 |PU| (11) (14/1 0%) Jour D'orage		14 14/1(0%)																															(11) Jour D'orage 14/1, Made mistakes, raced too keenly when stepped up in trip and did not get home when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell last time. Improvement is required. Unexposed 6yo but he's not achieved much and has been tailed off in both his handicaps.
1	1 |PU| (1) (40/1 -82%) Ribba Hill		40 40/1(-82%)																															(1) Ribba Hill 40/1, Found little when stepped up in trip and did not stay when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Taunton last time.

BRADMAN has turned a corner on his last couple of starts, with a pair of victories at Fontwell. The five-year-old was a surprise winner on Boxing Day, but proved that effort to be no fluke last time and a 6lb rise might not be enough to stop him from landing the hat-trick. Broomfield Gale benefited from a sounder surface when scoring at Taunton so testing conditions are a concern. With that in mind, Inchagoill Lady might prove to be the biggest threat to the selection.

Top of the list is the progressive BRADMAN (nap) who completed a double in smooth style at Fontwell 18 days ago.

1	10 1st (10) (11/1 -57%) Shoeshine Boy		11 11/1(-57%)																															(10) Shoeshine Boy 11/1, Ran to form, showing a willing attitude when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 4lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 3m and suited by plenty of cut, he remains on a fair mark after returning to form. Three-time course winner, the latest over C&D 16 days ago; could be thereabouts up 4lb.
2	1 2nd (1) (12/1 -33%) Felicie Du Maquis		12 12/1(-33%)																															(1) Felicie Du Maquis 12/1, Outpaced and may have found the ground on the quick side when fourth, beaten 19l, in a handicap chase at Chepstow last time. Off a short break; effective at 3m and suited by plenty of cut. Yet to fire over fences but consistent in this sphere. Reverts to hurdles following wind op and off same mark as for win in this code last April.
3	12 3rd (12) (40/1 -21%) Grand Voyage		40 40/1(-21%)																															(12) Grand Voyage 40/1, Made too much use of when well beaten in a handicap hurdle here last time. Off a short break; effective over 2 1/2m and better over fences. On a fair mark but can be tricky to win with. Won off 5lb higher over fences here last March but no threat across his five runs since.
4	2 4th (2) (5/1 +58%) Rocheval		5 5/1(+58%)																															(2) Rocheval 5/1, Made too much use of up in trip but put in a decent effort when fourth, beaten 7l, in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle last time. Effective over 2-3m; below par this term but hinted at better latest and is unexposed as a stayer. Step back in the right direction last time and not discounted now back down in grade.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 -17%) Fox's Fancy		14 14/1(-17%)																															(6) Fox's Fancy 14/1, Made mistakes and, despite having every chance, ran below form when fourth, beaten 18l, in a handicap hurdle at Kelso last time. Off a short break; effective over 2 1/2-3m but a bit below her best this term. Not at the top of her game this season but showed some appealing form here last spring.
6th	3 6th (3) (15/2 -7%) President Scottie		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(3) President Scottie 15/2, Made mistakes and may not have stayed when well beaten in a handicap chase at Kelso last time. Off a short break; effective over 2 1/2-3m and generally consistent, so could be on a good mark back over hurdles at a track he likes. He's dropped to a dangerous mark; could go well now back over hurdles & back down in trip.
7th	13 7th (13) (33/1 +0%) Pure Sirloin		33 33/1(+0%)																															(13) Pure Sirloin 33/1, Outpaced and ran below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Kelso last time. Effective over 2 1/2-3m but inconsistent and does not look the force of old. Sole win (from 19 attempts) came back in January 2023 and he's 5lb wrong at the weights.
8th	5 8th (5) (10/3 -11%) Buzz Iceclear		3.333333 10/3(-11%)																															(5) Buzz Iceclear 10/3, Yard won this race last year and he scored by 3l off a 12lb lower mark at Wetherby on his penultimate start. Latest run worth marking up as poorly placed off steady pace. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time; effective over 2m-3m and remains a progressive sort. Won first two handicaps (including C&D) before good third at Ascot; he's a solid candidate.
9th	4 9th (4) (9/2 -13%) Carismatic Soldier		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(4) Carismatic Soldier 9/2, Never competitive after a series of errors when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time. Cheekpieces are fitted for the first time; usually held up; off a short break and consistent, remaining unexposed at 3m. Retains potential for staying trips and he could jump better now in cheekpieces.
10th	9 10th (9) (16/1 -33%) Canunclecani		16 16/1(-33%)																															(9) Canunclecani 16/1, Rallied and ran to form when fourth, beaten 20l, in a maiden hurdle here last time, stepping up in trip. Effective over 2m1f-3m and generally consistent. The step up in trip could be a good move on handicap debut and he's one to consider.
11	11 |PU| (11) (9/1 -80%) Adveram		9 9/1(-80%)																															(11) Adveram 9/1, Outpaced but returned to form, handling the testing ground and out-battling the runner-up to land a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Hexham last time. Trainer is in form; effective over 2 1/2-3m but a revised mark will demand more. Back to form with a win at Hexham last month and he has a solid record here; up just 3lb.
7	7 |PU| (7) (14/1 +44%) Gaillimh A Stor		14 14/1(+44%)																															(7) Gaillimh A Stor 14/1, Put in a poor run when stepped up in grade and was well beaten in a handicap hurdle here last time. A visor is fitted for the first time; effective over 2m6f-3m, but his form is going the wrong way. Went close in this last year and now 10lb lower but has struggled to get competitive since.
8	8 |PU| (8) (40/1 -60%) Theme Tune		40 40/1(-60%)																															(8) Theme Tune 40/1, Again ran below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Haydock last time. Off a short break; effective at 3m but needs to prove his ability remains after a lay-off. 11yo whose mark continues to fall but for good reason; well beaten on both runs this term.

Shoeshine Boy put a Wetherby fall behind him to record a cosy success over C&D and a 4lb rise won't ask too much more of him, but he might be vulnerable to the unexposed CANUNCLECANI. The seven-year-old showed ability over a variety of trips in maiden/novice events but a switch to handicaps, coupled with the step up to three miles, might bring out the best in him. Others to note include Buzz Iceclear and Adveram.

Stamina looked a strong suit for CARISMATIC SOLDIER when he kept on for third over Wetherby's extended 2m5f in November.

1	9 1st (9) (11/4 +31%) King's Hand		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(9) King's Hand 11/4, Returned to form when dropped in trip in a first-time hood and beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark here last time. Effective around 10f and in decent form, with that latest effort boosted. 5lb better off for 2.5l with Tommy's Promise on latest C&D run; each-way shout.
2	8 2nd (8) (11/4 0%) Tommy's Promise		2.75 11/4(0%)																															(8) Tommy's Promise 11/4, Improved again when landing a handicap by a short-head off a 4lb lower mark here last time. Effective from 8-10f and could defy a 4lb penalty following that success. Chasing a five-timer and latest win has been handsomely advertised by the runner-up.

On the same mark again and remains competitive over 8-11f. C&D win last month (Class 6) followed by two solid efforts; should remain competitive.
4	5 4th (5) (16/1 +36%) Penfolds Grange		16 16/1(+36%)																															(5) Penfolds Grange 16/1, Below form when beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Chelmsford last time. Effective at 8f but remains inconsistent, and others appear stronger in this contest. Had wind op since latest start; steps up in trip with more required.
5th	1 5th (1) (33/1 -136%) Annexation		33 33/1(-136%)																															(1) Annexation 33/1, Did too much too soon under a change of tactics and ran to form when beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap here last time. Trained by a top course trainer and effective around 10f, but this mark asks for a bit more. Two 1m2f wins in three days on turf last autumn; not shone in two AW runs this winter.
6th	4 6th (4) (7/2 +46%) Didaar		3.5 7/2(+46%)																															(4) Didaar 7/2, Ran to form when benefiting from a pace collapse and beaten 3l off this mark at Kempton last time. Returns from a short break, is effective from 8-10f, but remains a maiden and not one to rely on. 0-15 but last month's stable debut (1m) was encouraging; not ruled out back up in trip.
7th	2 7th (2) (18/1 -125%) Meet Me In Meraki		18 18/1(-125%)																															(2) Meet Me In Meraki 18/1, Never threatened off a steady pace when beaten 10l in a handicap here last time. Had been in good form prior to that effort, is partnered by a top course jockey, and remains effective from 8-12f. Not at best behind Tommy's Promise last time but earlier C&D 4th brings him right into it.
8th	6 8th (6) (22/1 -38%) Raintown		22 22/1(-38%)																															(6) Raintown 22/1, Continued in poor form when beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap here last time, despite first-time blinkers. Suited by 12f but has lost form and needs to show improvement. Good course record and well handicapped but not firing on all cylinders this winter.
9th	3 9th (3) (25/1 -400%) Alta Rica		25 25/1(-400%)																															(3) Alta Rica 25/1, Was a bit too free in first-time headgear but improved on recent form when beaten a neck off this mark here last time. Effective at 10f, well treated off an unchanged mark, and should be winning soon. Close 3rd off this mark here 19 days ago (cheekpieces first time); involved with a repeat.

There has been no stopping TOMMY'S PROMISE, whose winning streak started at Chelmsford last month. He's since added a hat-trick of C&D victories and although the latest was the narrowest of all, he is still fancied to defy a further 4lb rise. That hike now looks fair considering the runner-up has notched up a double in recent days. Alta Rica went close in a blanket finish over track and trip and is considered, while Bownder completes the shortlist.

The flourishing TOMMY'S PROMISE hasn't been harshly treated for his latest win and he can complete a five-timer.

1	1 1st (1) (15/2 -15%) Mi Lucky Cailin		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(1) Mi Lucky Cailin 15/2, Ran to form but looked in need of a stiffer test when second, beaten 6 1/2l, in a handicap hurdle at Down Royal last time. Significant jockey booking and consistent, effective over 2m–2m4f on soft and good ground. Has failed to add to debut bumper win in 2022, recent Down Royal run offers encouragement.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/2 -22%) Gaelic Des Chastys		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(5) Gaelic Des Chastys 11/2, Travelled, ran to form when beaten a nose off a 3lb lower mark at Limerick last time; effective around 2m4f, acts on any; good mark on chase form, consistent. Touched off at Limerick last time, up 3lb but still 12lb below his chase mark, contender.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/8 +61%) Jay Pee M		1.375 11/8(+61%)																															(3) Jay Pee M 11/8, Well backed, improved again beaten 1 1/2l off a 18lb higher mark at Cork last time; trainer in form; returning from long layoff; effective around 2m with cut; respected back hurdling off much lower mark. Much improved when sent chasing last season, interesting off 21lb lower hurdles mark.
4	12 4th (12) (8/1 +33%) Toor Moon		8 8/1(+33%)																															(12) Toor Moon 8/1, Was below form when tried in cheekpieces and finishing down the field in a handicap chase at Tramore last time. Had been in good form beforehand and, effective around 2m4f, is likely to go well. Not at his best over fences last time, otherwise consistent since last autumn, fair chance.
5th	19 5th (19) (16/1 +36%) Jaynemax		16 16/1(+36%)																															(19) Jaynemax 16/1, Improved on his final qualifying run when fourth, beaten 29l, in a maiden hurdle at Tramore last time. Effective over 2m and looks the type to do better in handicaps over further. First reserve, Tramore fourth was a step in the right direction though beaten almost 30l.
6th	8 6th (8) (14/1 +36%) Love Like This		14 14/1(+36%)																															(8) Love Like This 14/1, Produced a better effort back down in trip when fourth, beaten 17l, in a handicap chase at Clonmel last time. Effective over 2m–2m4f on heavy and good ground but remains a frustrating maiden. In action over fences lately, 0-24 over hurdles, second on six occasions, good 7lb claimer.
7th	16 7th (16) (18/1 +64%) Zolpharine		18 18/1(+64%)																															(16) Zolpharine 18/1, Failed to feature from off the pace when well beaten in a handicap chase at Limerick last time. Effective up to 3m on a sound surface but remains inconsistent with a poor strike-rate. Reverts to hurdling after a disappointing sequence in chases, sole hurdles win was in 2023.
8th	15 8th (15) (33/1 +34%) Glory Sky		33 33/1(+34%)																															(15) Glory Sky 33/1, Was a bit free but ran to form on handicap debut in a new headgear combination when well beaten here last time. Returns from a break, seems to get 2m, but stamina for this trip remains to be proven. AW winner in Britain at three, yet to reach the first six over hurdles, still early days.
9th	10 9th (10) (9/2 +55%) Hakensack		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(10) Hakensack 9/2, Went clear before stopping quickly after being made too much use of when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Punchestown last time. Had been in good form previously and can do better if ridden more conservatively. Let down by his jumping on his recent chasing debut, clear chance on December hurdles form.
10th	18 10th (18) (50/1 -25%) Max Time		50 50/1(-25%)																															(18) Max Time 50/1, Ran to his current poor level when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe last time. Effective up to 2m6f with cut, but has plenty to prove for now. Galway win in September 2024 was a flash in the pan, unplaced in 31 of his 32 starts.
11th	17 11th (17) (25/1 +24%) Added Bonus		25 25/1(+24%)																															(17) Added Bonus 25/1, Had every chance and ran to his current form when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Clonmel last time. Effective over 2m–2m4f but has been out of form during 2025. Veteran has the merit of two course wins over fences, 0-35 hurdles record is a negative.
12th	6 12th (6) (40/1 -21%) Loughrask Jet		40 40/1(-21%)																															(6) Loughrask Jet 40/1, Ran to debut level when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Usually held up and looks the type to do better once switched to handicaps. Relatively unexposed mare but hard to discern winning potential in her form in maidens.
7	7 |PU| (7) (18/1 +64%) Real Empire		18 18/1(+64%)																															(7) Real Empire 18/1, Fell early in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time after a short break; effective over 2m4f but remains inconsistent. 50-1 when falling at the first in a Cork race in which Hakensack was second, no appeal.
13	13 |PU| (13) (66/1 -65%) Bee Bright		66 66/1(-65%)																															(13) Bee Bright 66/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle here last time. Blinkers are fitted for the first time after a short break; effective over 2m6f on heavy ground and may do better now switched to handicaps. Weak form in maidens, nothing to recommend, blinkered for the first time.
4	4 |PU| (4) (80/1 -60%) Teagarden Jazz		80 80/1(-60%)																															(4) Teagarden Jazz 80/1, Was far too keen when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork most recently. Effective around 2m–2m4f on a sound surface but might need this run, with the ground now soft enough. Lost form with Gordon Elliott, no revival yet for this yard, dropping in the handicap.
14	14 |PU| (14) (100/1 -150%) Venturi Effect		100 100/1(-150%)																															(14) Venturi Effect 100/1, Produced a poor effort when well beaten in a maiden hurdle here last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time after a short break, but she has yet to show anything of note. Has struggled in four maiden outings at this venue, cheekpieces added for handicap debut.

WHERE ARE YOU NOW can gain compensation after a narrow defeat at Punchestown recently. The Soldier Of Fortune gelding just failed to peg back Be Fierce having made a mistake two from home. Stepping up half a mile in trip should suit. Jay Pee M looks nicely treated back over timber. The Valirann gelding was runner-up off a mark of 115 over fences when last seen at Cork in April last year, and he could be a big player if ready to roll on his return. Gaelic Des Chastys has been knocking on the door and is another that has to be respected.

A 4lb rise for a Punchestown second might not be enough to stop WHERE ARE YOU NOW (nap) from going one better

1	4 1st (4) (5/2 +0%) Jupiter Allen		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(4) Jupiter Allen 5/2, Ran to form 6l third in a handicap chase here most recent run; enjoys making it; effective 3m-3m6f, acts with cut; capable off this mark. Could have done with slower ground when a 6l third over C&D on Boxing Day.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 +64%) Largy Poet		2.5 5/2(+64%)																															(1) Largy Poet 5/2, Below form when back hurdling and comfortably held in a handicap here last time. Effective over 3m–3m2f with cut in the ground, but a bounce back effort is required. Modest the last twice (hurdling latest) but an assured stayer who will handle conditions.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +46%) My Silver Lining		3.5 7/2(+46%)																															(6) My Silver Lining 7/2, All but fell early when pulled up in a handicap chase at Lingfield latest; suited by 3m+, acts on any; not quite the force of old but has dropped below last winning mark. In form until her excusable defeat at Lingfield; also very effective in the mud.
4	2 4th (2) (11/2 -120%) Collectors Item		5.5 11/2(-120%)																															(2) Collectors Item 11/2, Outpaced, below form up in grade down the field in Coral Welsh Grand National at Chepstow most recent; effective up to 3m4f, acts on any but better ground may suit; inconsistent but capable. Struggled in the Welsh National but close to top form when runner-up the time before.
5	5 |PU| (5) (13/2 +0%) Pimlico Point		6.5 13/2(+0%)																															(5) Pimlico Point 13/2, Bit below form when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Ffos Las last time. Returns from a short break, is effective around 3m, ideally wants easier ground, and needs more. Heavy-ground winner who is able when fresh and handicapped to be competitive.
3	3 |PU| (3) (18/1 -260%) Take Your Time		18 18/1(-260%)																															(3) Take Your Time 18/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Ffos Las on his latest start and returns from a long layoff. Effective over 3m–3m2f with cut, but has plenty to prove. Now an 11yo so perhaps asking a bit much for him to rediscover his peak form.

COLLECTORS ITEM struggled to land a blow on Chepstow ground faster than ideal in the Welsh National and he is better judged on his second there the time before. The nine-year-old boasts winning form here, having taken the Somerset National last January, and this kind of test should bring out the very best in him. My Silver Lining stays forever and is worth another chance after pulling up following a mistake at Lingfield last week. Others to consider are Jupiter Allen and Take Your Time.

The mare MY SILVER LINING was running into form again before her unfortunate incident in the Surrey National.

1	10 1st (10) (3/1 +14%) Tommy Combats		3 3/1(+14%)																															(10) Tommy Combats 3/1, Unseated mid-race in a handicap chase at Newcastle latest. Effective at 2m-2m4f and acts on soft and good to soft; holds a solid chance judged on his latest completed start. Reappeared with solid second here in November; in the front rank when unseating last time.
2	3 2nd (3) (17/2 +61%) Great Pepper		8.5 17/2(+61%)																															(3) Great Pepper 17/2, Far too free when comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time. Effective over 2m4f-2m6f and suited by plenty of cut, but unreliable and has had issues. Bang there jumping 3 out over 2m4f here this month; this trip could be just what he needs.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 -11%) Disguisedlimit		10 10/1(-11%)																															(5) Disguisedlimit 10/1, Did not find much after a bad error when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Uttoxeter last time. Had been in good form prior; usually held up; effective at 2m-2m4f and acts on good to soft and good, though there are slight enthusiasm concerns. Below par last time but in good form previously and can be involved if bouncing back.
4	2 4th (2) (10/1 +55%) Netywell		10 10/1(+55%)																															(2) Netywell 10/1, Had no obvious excuse when well beaten in a handicap chase at Haydock latest. Effective at 2m and suited by plenty of give, and now drops back towards a more workable mark. Well handicapped on form as recent as last March but he's been patchy this season.
5th	6 5th (6) (18/1 -64%) Flash Du Pistolet		18 18/1(-64%)																															(6) Flash Du Pistolet 18/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Kelso latest and is returning from a long layoff. Effective at 2m-2m4f on a sound surface; off since spring and may need this. Two wins last March; pulled up when last seen but goes well fresh; might not be far away.
6th	8 6th (8) (7/1 -155%) Ballyfort		7 7/1(-155%)																															(8) Ballyfort 7/1, On his last winning mark and returned to form when landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 2m and acts on soft and good; remains well treated on hurdle form and is capable of better over fences. Two wins from his last three starts (including C&D) and he's entitled to respect.
7th	4 7th (4) (11/1 -22%) Kinbara Firstdraft		11 11/1(-22%)																															(4) Kinbara Firstdraft 11/1, Let down by jumping when well beaten on chase debut in a beginners chase at Down Royal latest. Effective over about 2 1/2m and suited by decent ground, but needs more. Inconsistent since winning over hurdles here in November 2024, but one to watch in betting.
8th	7 8th (7) (3/1 +50%) Wotter Trotter		3 3/1(+50%)																															(7) Wotter Trotter 3/1, Travelled well but kicked on too soon when fourth beaten 20l up in trip in a handicap chase at Uttoxeter latest. Effective at 2m and acts on soft and good to soft; was consistent in spring, with hurdles form franked, and can do better over fences. Improvement needed on fourth chase start but he's lightly raced and in top hands.
11	11 |F| (11) (40/1 -43%) Chumlee		40 40/1(-43%)																															(11) Chumlee 40/1, Outpaced and never threatened but ran to form when third beaten 36l in a novice chase at Kelso on his most recent run. Usually held up; effective at 2m and suited by plenty of cut, and has run to modest hurdle form over fences. Hasn't been showing enough to suggest he'll be winning this from 6lb out of the handicap.
1	1 |U| (1) (18/1 -100%) Coup De Coeur		18 18/1(-100%)																															(1) Coup De Coeur 18/1, Made mistakes and was never involved when comfortably held below form in a handicap chase at Sandown last time, up in grade. Returns from a short break; effective at 2m-2m1f and acts on soft and good. Progressive in spring but below par this term. His jumping held him back at Sandown but he was progressive last season; could bounce back.
9	9 |PU| (9) (10/1 -67%) Carcaci Castle		10 10/1(-67%)																															(9) Carcaci Castle 10/1, Produced a better effort off a reduced mark back up in trip when second beaten 5l in a handicap chase at Musselburgh latest. Best around 2m and acts on heavy and good to soft; could be running into form from this mark. 10yo who isn't the force of old but was runner-up off this reduced mark last month.

A confident vote goes to BALLYFORT, who has really got the hang of things over fences this term. On target at Kelso in October, he wasn't as good over the same C&D next time but he was back in the winning groove over this track and trip earlier in the month. Nick Alexander's charge is only 3lb higher and can brush aside class dropper Coup De Coeur en route to further success. Tommy Combats is also noted.

Having travelled smoothly into the straight over the extended 2m4f here last time, GREAT PEPPER earns the vote now back down in trip.

1	1 1st (1) (9/4 +63%) Bucklow Hill		2.25 9/4(+63%)																															(1) Bucklow Hill 9/4, 85,000 euros Cotai Glory colt; half-brother to Sydneyarms Chelsea, very smart at 7f as a 2yo for this stable; dam smart at 6f at 2yo; very interesting. 85,000euros yearling; half-brother to a Group 3 winner in France; market useful on debut.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/10 +51%) Silent Strike		1.1 11/10(+51%)																															(3) Silent Strike 11/10, 220,000 euros Mehmas colt; half-brother to Dirty Rascal, smart at 7f; dam useful at 7f; top trainer; likely type. 220,000euros yearling; has three winning siblings and starts out in a winnable event.
3	5 3rd (5) (5/1 -82%) Sakura Spirit		5 5/1(-82%)																															(5) Sakura Spirit 5/1, Showed pace on a fair debut when beaten 6l in a maiden at Nottingham. The pick on the balance of form based on that opening effort. Midfield finish on Nottingham debut last June (5f, good); bred to do better in time.
4	6 4th (6) (40/1 -150%) Salamis Bay		40 40/1(-150%)																															(6) Salamis Bay 40/1, 30,000 euros breeze-up purchase by Showcasing; half-sister to Wentwood, very useful at 8f; dam fair at 8f; tough enough task on debut. 30,000euros breeze-up 2yo; half-sister to five winners but may need more time and distance.
5th	7 5th (7) (200/1 -400%) Saturday Again		200 200/1(-400%)																															(7) Saturday Again 200/1, Again ran to a moderate level when comfortably held in a novice at Epsom last time. Hood worn for the first time, trainer in form, returning from a break and bred for 10f+, so likely better suited to handicaps. Poor form in three runs (6f-7f) last August/September; hooded for her return; no appeal.
6th	8 6th (8) (10/1 -122%) Seven Of Hearts		10 10/1(-122%)																															(8) Seven Of Hearts 10/1, Showcasing filly; half-sister to Wholehearted, who was moderate at 6f; dam smart at 5f at 2yo. Ridden by a top course jockey but looks an unlikely winner on debut. Dam a useful 5f 2yo winner from a fast family; market instructive on debut.
7th	4 7th (4) (22/1 -10%) Dinky Diamond		22 22/1(-10%)																															(4) Dinky Diamond 22/1, Harry Angel filly; half-sister to Forglen, moderate at 8f; dam smart at 6f at 2yo; worth a precautionary market check. Half-sister to a winning stayer; dam a tough winning sprinter; other newcomers appeal more.
8th	2 8th (2) (10/1 -100%) Chhota Saab		10 10/1(-100%)																															(2) Chhota Saab 10/1, Outpaced and below form when beaten 7l in a maiden at Chelmsford last time. Effective at 5-6f and acts on all-weather, having been generally consistent in a short career until that latest run. 0-6 but has shown ability; blinkers left off today; vulnerable to anything progressive.

Although Chhota Saab hasn't been the most consistent, he has some fair form in the book and will put his experience to good use. A repeat of last month's third here should see him in the mix, but there are some intriguing newcomers on show. SILENT STRIKE, a 220,000-euro half-brother to Listed sprint winner Stormy Girl, tops the bill and market support would increase confidence. Fellow debutant Seven Of Hearts is another of interest.

This looks ripe for a newcomer and SEVEN OF HEARTS is tentatively preferred to Silent Strike and Bucklow Hill.

1	2 1st (2) (3/1 -20%) Blow Wind Blow		3 3/1(-20%)																															(2) Blow Wind Blow 3/1, Bit below best down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas most recent; effective 2m, acts with cut; up significantly in trip, so could improve. Has shown enough in maidens of a higher standard to suggest he will be competitive here.
2	9 2nd (9) (33/1 +34%) Not Leaving Yet		33 33/1(+34%)																															(9) Not Leaving Yet 33/1, Unseated in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Has shown little to date and looks up against it in this contest. 300-1 when unseated at the first at Fairyhouse three weeks ago, no apparent chance.
3	5 3rd (5) (33/1 +18%) Private Policy		33 33/1(+18%)																															(5) Private Policy 33/1, Made too much use of when comfortably held in a bumper at Limerick last time. Absent for a very lengthy period, now has a tongue-tie for the first time and tackles a longer trip on his hurdling debut. Career has been punctuated by long absences, unlikely to feature on reappearance.
4	1 4th (1) (12/1 -85%) Albus		12 12/1(-85%)																															(1) Albus 12/1, Bit below debut level when well beaten in a graduation hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective at 2m4f on yielding ground and likely has more to offer for a top yard, possibly when moving into handicaps. Unfancied on first two starts, probably capable of making a more telling impression now.
4	4 |PU| (4) (4/9 +28%) Eliodam		0.444444 4/9(+28%)																															(4) Eliodam 4/9, Up there at halfway when fell in a maiden hurdle here latest; longer trip should suit if okay after fall and surely has more to offer for top yard. Flopped in a valuable bumper, fell on hurdling debut after running green, may make amends.
8	8 |PU| (8) (18/1 -29%) Matilauna		18 18/1(-29%)																															(8) Matilauna 18/1, Just about ran to form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective over 2m to 2m3f and more to come when moving into handicaps. Not a bad run at Limerick on latest, 83-rated mare would be more at home in a handicap.
7	7 |PU| (7) (18/1 +28%) Ballingurteen		18 18/1(+28%)																															(7) Ballingurteen 18/1, Again ran to a moderate level when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel last time. The trainer is in form and this longer trip may help. Placed in a point-to-point, weak form over hurdles, possibly one for handicaps later on.
10	10 |PU| (10) (18/1 +45%) Shuil Swift		18 18/1(+45%)																															(10) Shuil Swift 18/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Stamina remains to be proven. Failed to distinguish herself in two outings at Limerick last month, place chance at best.
3	3 |PU| (3) (50/1 -25%) Danalii		50 50/1(-25%)																															(3) Danalii 50/1, Tried in a tongue-tie and made no impact when falling in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Steps up in trip but needs much more to be competitive. Soundly beaten in two bumpers, out of contention when falling two out at Fairyhouse.
6	6 |PU| (6) (80/1 -142%) Sacramental		80 80/1(-142%)																															(6) Sacramental 80/1, Again ran to a moderate level when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse most recently. Tries a tongue-tie for the first time, is usually held up, and has yet to show anything over hurdles. Nothing of merit in his three runs over hurdles, tongue-tie fitted after a poor recent run.

This looks like a nice opportunity for ELIODAM. The No Risk At All gelding didn't look the most straightforward when jumping the path here last month prior to crashing out at the fifth flight. He was sent to post favourite that day though and should possess the ability to make his presence felt at this level. The 104-rated Blow Wind Blow was soundly beaten into mid-division in a strong event at Naas last time but should have a part to play. Albus also faces an easier task, on just his third outing, and is another to consider.

Although not especially attractive at the likely odds ELIODAM could be in a different league to these rivals

1	4 1st (4) (11/2 +66%) Pyleigh Court		5.5 11/2(+66%)																															(4) Pyleigh Court 11/2, Outclassed when pulled up in a hunter chase at Aintree last time. He returns from a long layoff and is effective at 2m4f. He acts on any ground but his stamina for this test remains to be proven. Effective on heavy ground but looks vulnerable here, especially over this far.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/1 +0%) Thunder Rock		4 4/1(+0%)																															(1) Thunder Rock 4/1, Needed the run when pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Newbury last time. The trainer is in form and he comes here off a short break. Effective over 2m4f-3m on soft and good, he likes small fields and looks a useful recruit to these races. Useful chaser at his peak; has lost his way over hurdles; makes hunter chase debut.
3	2 3rd (2) (6/4 +63%) Illico De Cotte		1.5 6/4(+63%)																															(2) Illico De Cotte 6/4, The yard won this race last year with Mr Glass. He made a fair return when second, beaten 9l, in a mixed open point at Dunsmore last time. Off a short break, he is effective at 3m-3m2f on soft and good and is capable in this. Ex-Skelton handicapper; beaten in two points for current yard and he'll need more here.
3	3 |PU| (3) (11/4 +8%) Mr Glass		2.75 11/4(+8%)																															(3) Mr Glass 11/4, Won this race last year when trained by Will Biddick. He made mistakes and ran below form when pulled up in a hunter chase at Leicester last time. Returning from a long layoff, he is effective around 3m with cut and has a fair chance if ready to roll. Back with Paul Nicholls; won this last year for Will Biddick; able fresh and goes on heavy.
5	5 |PU| (5) (12/1 +0%) Go Sacre Go		12 12/1(+0%)																															(5) Go Sacre Go 12/1, Ran to form when winning a restricted point at Badbury Rings by 10l last time. He comes here off a short break and is effective at 3m-3m2f on heavy and good. He was runner-up in this race 12 months ago. A repeat of last year's run in this race (runner-up) should see him competitive.
6	6 |PU| (6) (25/1 -56%) Minella Jab		25 25/1(-56%)																															(6) Minella Jab 25/1, Back to form when winning a point at Wadebridge by 3/4l last time. He is effective at 3m-3m2f on soft and good. This is his first run under rules since 2024 and he can go well. 3-9 in points but 0-3 in hunter chases and has his work cut out in this company.

Thunder Rock switches to the hunter chase sphere in a bid to regain some confidence having lost his way over hurdles. Despite winning twice in Listed company over fences at his best, his jumping was never the most assured and last year's winner MR GLASS gets the vote. The 10-year-old relished similar conditions 12 months ago and has every chance of making it back-to-back victories. Illico De Cotte and Pyleigh Court complete the shortlist.

A trappy hunter chase. The 10yo MR GLASS may repeat his win in this last year which was on similar ground.

1	8 1st (8) (8/11 +78%) The Skecher		0.727273 8/11(+78%)																															(8) The Skecher 8/11, Improved when second, beaten a head in a maiden point at Loughrea latest. Returns from a break; point form has been franked under rules and he has joined a top yard. Went close in a point in October & that form has been franked; has to be high on the list.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 -211%) Finisk Pride		7 7/1(-211%)																															(5) Finisk Pride 7/1, Improved when winning a maiden point at Tinahely by 7l last time. Returns from a break; a point winner who has joined a top yard that can get them ready first time. Point winner who was bought for £130,000; could play a leading role on bumper debut.
3	6 3rd (6) (9/2 -80%) Katagat		4.5 9/2(-80%)																															(6) Katagat 9/2, Travelled well on debut when a very promising third, beaten 2l in a bumper at Wetherby. Tongue-tie applied first time; effective at 2m and on soft ground, and should progress a little. Third of 15 on debut at Wetherby and on the shortlist in a first-time tongue-tie.
4	9 4th (9) (28/1 -133%) Myfriendcooper		28 28/1(-133%)																															(9) Myfriendcooper 28/1, Promising debut when winning by 3/4l in a maiden point at Dromahane. Tongue-tie on first time; point form has been franked and she is a rare rules runner for the stable. Won mares' point in April 2024 but absent since; takes on males and may be best watched.
5th	4 5th (4) (11/1 +0%) El Gangster		11 11/1(+0%)																															(4) El Gangster 11/1, Promising debut when third, beaten 5 1/2l in a bumper at Carlisle. Returns from a short break, is effective at 2m and on soft ground, and with debut form franked should progress. 33-1 third on debut at Carlisle two months ago and the runner-up has since gone one better.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/1 +44%) Allfor		9 9/1(+44%)																															(1) Allfor 9/1, Promising debut when runner-up, beaten 3l in a maiden point at Oldcastle on only start. Returns from a long layoff and looks the stable second string on rules debut. Point runner-up who changed hands for £40,000; one of two bumper newcomers for yard.
7th	3 7th (3) (16/1 -146%) Blue Du Neuf		16 16/1(-146%)																															(3) Blue Du Neuf 16/1, Fair debut in a tongue-tie despite racing keenly when well beaten in a bumper at Down Royal on only start. Effective at 2m1f on yielding ground and improvement is likely now hurdling. Improvement needed on second start but trainer has healthy strike-rate in bumpers here.

With many of these arriving from the pointing sphere, it looks best to heed the market signals. Dan Skelton's The Skecher makes appeal, as do stable companions Allfor and Finisk Pride, but the previous experience of KATAGAT might be crucial. The Diamond Boy gelding made a pleasing introduction at Wetherby and with the aid of a tongue-tie this time, he could take the necessary step forward.

Preference is for THE SKECHER, who pushed a subsequent bumper winner very close in a point in October. Finisk River is feared.

1	1 1st (1) (5/2 +55%) Invincible Speed		2.5 5/2(+55%)																															(1) Invincible Speed 5/2, Did his best work late when beaten 3 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time. Effective at 6f with all wins on the all-weather, and now down to his lowest mark in two years. C&D win last April off 5lb higher; ran okay at Southwell last month but needs more to win.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/2 +44%) Mart		2.5 5/2(+44%)																															(4) Mart 5/2, Failed to stay when upped in trip and beaten 4l in a Wolverhampton handicap last time. Better suited by 6f, is below his last winning mark and a drop back in distance is expected to help. Mixed bag since September but his better runs have come over C&D; dangerous mark.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 -82%) Porfin		5 5/1(-82%)																															(6) Porfin 5/1, Won by 2l off a 7lb lower mark here two starts ago and then ran to form when second, beaten a head, off 52 last time. Runs from the same mark, the trainer is in form and he can go well again. Back to form in recent weeks; up in class but respected all the same.
4	5 4th (5) (66/1 -313%) Stapleford Park		66 66/1(-313%)																															(5) Stapleford Park 66/1, Was far too free when well beaten in a Chelmsford handicap latest. Effective at 6/7f but is out of form and remains unproven on the all-weather. Well beaten in two runs for new stable; too much to prove at present.
5th	3 5th (3) (85/40 -13%) All Too Beautiful		2.125 85/40(-13%)																															(3) All Too Beautiful 85/40, Needed every yard when improving again to land a handicap by a length off a 5lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 6/7f and a contender despite facing a stiffer task on the back of that win. Chasing a Polytrack four-timer; latest win cosy enough but up 5lb and back against males.
6th	2 6th (2) (16/1 -167%) Havana Joy		16 16/1(-167%)																															(2) Havana Joy 16/1, Was keen and did too much too soon from a wide draw when well down the field in a Kempton handicap latest, needing the run. Had been in good form beforehand, is effective at 6/7f and should come on for that. Promise on AW last year; poor run on handicap debut in November; had wind op since.

All Too Beautiful has proved a revelation since returning to the all-weather and she merits respect in her bid to complete a four-timer. However, a 5lb higher mark for her latest triumph over C&D could leave her vulnerable and it may be worth chancing INVINCIBLE SPEED. Mark Loughnane's inmate found himself with too much to do when fourth at Southwell and this smaller-field affair should suit. Porfin completes the shortlist.

A small field but still a trappy affair. PORFIN steps up in class but may be up to the task. Mart may prove best of the rest.

1	10 1st (10) (4/1 +60%) Pebble Bleu		4 4/1(+60%)																															(10) Pebble Bleu 4/1, Below form when eighth, beaten 30l, off 94 last time and runs from the same mark here. Effective at 2m5f–3m on soft and good ground, but a clear bounce back is required. Landed a gamble at Tramore; excuses there next time; worth another chance with top claimer.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 -25%) Pookie Holler		5 5/1(-25%)																															(5) Pookie Holler 5/1, Produced his best run to date when second, beaten 19l, upped in trip in a maiden hurdle at Tramore. Effective at 2m3f–2m5f with cut, and debut form has been franked at Graded level. Well beaten second at Tramore (21.5f, soft) on New Year's Day; handicap debut.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/1 +10%) Ira Hayes		9 9/1(+10%)																															(4) Ira Hayes 9/1, Made too much use of and tried in a visor when fourth, beaten 30l, in a handicap hurdle at Clonmel on ground softer than ideal. Off a short break; effective at 2m4f–3m on soft and good ground. Not without support when remote fourth at Clonmel in November; others appeal more.
4	6 4th (6) (14/1 -133%) A Nod To Getaway		14 14/1(-133%)																															(6) A Nod To Getaway 14/1, Ran to form when fifth, beaten 18l, off 110 last time and is now 5lb lower. Effective from 2m–3m and suited by a sound surface. Steadily progressive and rated lower back over hurdles. Attention turns back to hurdling after below-par effort chasing here on latest.
5th	1 5th (1) (11/2 -38%) King In Love		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(1) King In Love 11/2, Improved up in trip when third, beaten 2l off 111 last time and now 3lb higher. Effective at 2m–2m4f and acts on soft and good ground. Inconsistent overall, but capable on his day. Won over 2m at Cork in November; good third at Leopardstown; only worry is the ground.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 +0%) Union Park		14 14/1(+0%)																															(9) Union Park 14/1, Ran to form when fourth, beaten 11l, in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Off a short break and effective around 2m4f with cut, though generally better over fences and his mark reflects that. Good chase record around here; 4th in competitive Punchestown handicap hurdle in November.
7th	8 7th (8) (4/1 +20%) Juke Hill		4 4/1(+20%)																															(8) Juke Hill 4/1, Below form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time and a significant jockey is booked. Effective at 2m6f–3m on soft and good ground. Behind a very smart type on latest; cheekpieces; Kennedy rides on handicap bow; considered.
2	2 |PU| (2) (9/2 +0%) Sarah Beara		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(2) Sarah Beara 9/2, Had too much to do but returned to form when beaten 3l off a 1lb lower mark at Limerick last time. Usually held up; effective at 2m4f–3m on soft and yielding ground, though strike-rate is modest. Never-nearer fifth of 16 at Limerick (3m, soft to heavy); the fourth boosted the form.
3	3 |PU| (3) (10/1 +0%) Fighting Fit		10 10/1(+0%)																															(3) Fighting Fit 10/1, Below form when dropping in trip and comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Tramore last time. Trainer is in form. Effective up to 2m5f and acts on yielding and good ground, with a return to further likely to suit. Fair return at Galway; remote fifth at Tramore; well treated relative to chase mark.
7	7 |PU| (7) (150/1 -275%) Ferdia		150 150/1(-275%)																															(7) Ferdia 150/1, Unsuited by soft ground when well beaten in a handicap chase at Naas last time. Effective at 2m–2m4f and acts on soft and good ground, but has a bit to prove on recent evidence. Very poor in the jumping department at Naas on latest; no surprise that he's back hurdling.

KING IN LOVE ran with real credit in a competitive event at Leopardstown over Christmas and is fancied to land the spoils today. Sean Aherne's charge stayed on well into third that day and stepping up a further two furlongs looks like it should be right up his street. Sarah Beara was a shade unlucky when fifth at Limerick last time and she could be dangerous from just 1lb higher. A Nod To Getaway reverts back to hurdles from a 5lb lower mark and is another for the shortlist.

A chance is taken on PEBBLE BLEU, who is only 4lb higher than when landing a gamble at Tramore on her penultimate run

1	10 1st (10) (6/1 -118%) Western Charm		6 6/1(-118%)																															(10) Western Charm 6/1, Showed some promise on debut when well beaten in a mares' bumper at Plumpton. Should improve for that experience and comes from a yard that does well in these races. Easy to back at 15-2 when sixth at Plumpton, finishing behind Secret Des Lune.
2	7 2nd (7) (15/8 +6%) Secret Des Lune		1.875 15/8(+6%)																															(7) Secret Des Lune 15/8, Made a promising debut when runner-up, beaten 2l, in a mares' bumper at Plumpton. Effective at 2m2f on good to soft ground and improvement is likely. Ran well for a newcomer when second at Plumpton and that form sets the standard.
3	9 3rd (9) (5/1 -11%) That Is Blue		5 5/1(-11%)																															(9) That Is Blue 5/1, Blue Bresil mare and a half-sister to Triple Crown Ted, who was useful over 16f. The trainer is in form and capable of winning bumpers with this type. Half-sister to 2m hurdle winner Triple Crown Ted; trainer has been having bumper winners.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 -82%) Sparkling Water		10 10/1(-82%)																															(8) Sparkling Water 10/1, Again failed to complete in a maiden point at Stowlin last time. Wears a hood on her rules debut after joining a top Flat yard and is capable of better, with market moves worth noting. Three non-completions in points and wasn't competitive when twice departing.
5th	3 5th (3) (13/8 +64%) Midnight Doyen		1.625 13/8(+64%)																															(3) Midnight Doyen 13/8, Confirmed her debut promise when finishing 11l third in a bumper at Warwick last time. Proven at 2m on good to soft ground and looks to have a chance in this. Fair efforts at Chepstow and Warwick; experience will come in useful on this ground.
6th	2 6th (2) (33/1 -50%) Hotter Than Dubai		33 33/1(-50%)																															(2) Hotter Than Dubai 33/1, Dartmouth mare and a half-sister to Tile Tapper, who was useful up to 3m. The yard is capable of readying one first time, but she is probably best watched on debut. Half-sister to useful chaser Tile Tapper; yard 1-25 in bumpers recent seasons.
7th	1 7th (1) (125/1 -150%) Dreamfyre Dancer		125 125/1(-150%)																															(1) Dreamfyre Dancer 125/1, Again ran to a poor level when finishing down the field in a bumper at Exeter on her most recent start. Returns from a short break and has plenty to prove on what has been shown so far. Poor claims on what she showed in two bumpers for her previous yard.
8th	4 8th (4) (80/1 -100%) Pink Perjury		80 80/1(-100%)																															(4) Pink Perjury 80/1, Schiaparelli mare and a sister to Someone You Love, who was poor over 16f. Faces a tough enough task on debut, although this is only a modest race. Third foal; dam well beaten in bumper/2m-2m6f hurdles; likely best watched.
9th	5 9th (5) (66/1 +67%) Rob's Spirit		66 66/1(+67%)																															(5) Rob's Spirit 66/1, Outpaced and well beaten on her only start in a bumper at Chepstow. Returns from a short break and is likely to need more time based on that modest debut. 200-1 and tailed off in a soft-ground bumper at Chepstow in November.
10th	6 10th (6) (100/1 -300%) Saffron Belle		100 100/1(-300%)																															(6) Saffron Belle 100/1, Sans Frontieres mare and a half-sister to Cornish Saffron, who was poor over 16f. Makes little appeal on debut judged on pedigree and stable expectations. Stable not a noted source of bumper winners, 1-47 the last five seasons.

SECRET DES LUNE made a promising start to her career when runner-up at Plumpton and, in a contest that doesn't appear to have much depth on paper, Ben Clarke's mare has a fine opportunity to go one better. Midnight Doyen finished third behind a useful type of Dan Skelton's at Warwick on New Year's Eve. She enters calculations, while any market support for Sparkling Water would be noteworthy.

This doesn't look a strong bumper. SECRET DES LUNE ran perfectly well for a debutante at Plumpton.

Visor worn for the first time, usually held up, effective at 5f/6f, but attitude issues persist. 1-18 and she failed to beat a rival home on her yard debut; visor replaces cheekpieces.
8th	7 8th (7) (18/1 -50%) It's Showtime		18 18/1(-50%)																															(7) It's Showtime 18/1, Ran as though something was amiss when beaten 5l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Trainer is in form, usually held up, suited by 5f, but a bounce back is needed. Habitual slow starter who is 1-33; failed to beat a rival on his last two outings.

He's An Angel just got the better of MASTER DANDY when the pair met at Wolverhampton on Monday but the latter is weighted to reverse the form being 3lb better off on this occasion. Michael Keady's gelding was carrying a 5lb penalty for scoring at the same venue the week before and is turned out quickly before the handicapper has another say. Others for the shortlist include Desdemona and Second Collection.

He's An Angel (second choice) got up late to deny MASTER DANDY three days ago but the latter is preferred over this shorter trip.

SECRET HISTORY hit the frame on both starts as a juvenile at Newbury and York. She shaped well on each occasion, most notably on her latest run despite being hampered at a crucial point, and the drop to 6f gives her an excellent opportunity to shed the maiden tag. Welcome Retreat is capable of being in the mix on her return to action, while Tabby Kat is respected after her third at Southwell earlier in the month.

Seven Fires is second choice behind SECRET HISTORY who showed plenty in two starts last year and may be suited by the drop to 6f.

1	7 1st (7) (8/1 -60%) Up The Monk		8 8/1(-60%)																															(7) Up The Monk 8/1, Below form when beaten 10l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Visor is worn for the first time, the trainer is in form, and he is effective over 6f and 7f, with all worthwhile runs on all-weather. A drop into a classified may help. 1-16; third here over 7f before a disappointing effort three days ago; visor now applied.
2	5 2nd (5) (14/1 +13%) Tommytwohoots		14 14/1(+13%)																															(5) Tommytwohoots 14/1, Should have finished closer when beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Suited by 6f and acts on all-weather, but remains unreliable. Runner-up at Wolverhampton early this month but hasn't built on that in three starts since.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 +27%) Bishop's Glory		4 4/1(+27%)																															(1) Bishop's Glory 4/1, Bit below form when beaten 2l in a classified race at Newcastle last time. Suited by trips between 5f and 7f, but a bounce back is required judged on that latest effort. Placed in three of his last four starts, including here over 5f earlier in the month.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 -67%) Under Curfew		10 10/1(-67%)																															(6) Under Curfew 10/1, Was a bit keen but ran to form when second, beaten 1/2l, in a classified race here latest. Suited by 5f and 6f but stays 7f, acts on all-weather, and is erratic but capable. 10yo whose most recent win came last February; runner-up here over 5f two weeks ago.
5th	4 5th (4) (18/5 -31%) Poetic Jack		3.6 18/5(-31%)																															(4) Poetic Jack 18/5, Ran to form when second, beaten 3/4l, in a classified race here latest. Effective over 6f and 7f and acts on all-weather, with that effort more like it compared to earlier runs. Course winner who was runner-up behind Dubai Magic here last time; on the shortlist.
6th	2 6th (2) (3/1 +10%) Dubai Magic		3 3/1(+10%)																															(2) Dubai Magic 3/1, Ran to form when winning a classified race here by 3/4l last time. Effective over 5f and 6f and best on all-weather, with more to come now that she has got her head in front. Off the mark at the 20th attempt when winning a classified over C&D last time; respected.
7th	3 7th (3) (3/1 +60%) Lion Ring		3 3/1(+60%)																															(3) Lion Ring 3/1, Ran to form when a length third in a classified race at Wolverhampton on his most recent run. Effective at 5f and 6f and best on all-weather, giving him a chance in this. Four of his five wins have been here; close third at Wolverhampton last time.

DUBAI MAGIC has appreciated the drop into classified events since the beginning of the year, with a runner-up effort at Wolverhampton followed by a victory over C&D. The four-year-old is expected to confirm the placings with Poetic Jack, who was three-quarters of a length behind in second and appears likely to be competitive once again. Under Curfew is another with valid claims based on recent evidence and completes the shortlist alongside Bishop's Glory.

Dubai Magic beat POETIC JACK over C&D three weeks ago but the latter is selected to reverse those placings.

1	5 1st (5) (3/1 +57%) Knebworth		3 3/1(+57%)																															(5) Knebworth 3/1, Again below form when finishing down the field in a handicap at Newbury most recently. Returns from a short break and is effective at 5f and 6f. Lost form of late but on a good mark. C&D winner; below his best on turf when last seen but he's on a handy mark back on the AW.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/2 +18%) Twilight Fun		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(7) Twilight Fun 9/2, Ran to form when beaten 2l off a mark 1lb higher here last time. Enjoys making it and returns from a short break. Suited by 5f and runs from a competitive mark. Has won three of his four starts here, respectable effort here last time; back up in trip.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/2 -15%) Aberama Gold		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(4) Aberama Gold 15/2, Back to form when beaten 2l off this mark at Newcastle last time. Suited by 6f and a former Stewards' Cup winner. Now down to a good mark and capable of being competitive. C&D winner who ran well at Newcastle last time; drops in grade; contender.
4	9 4th (9) (12/1 -50%) Jesse Luc		12 12/1(-50%)																															(9) Jesse Luc 12/1, Bit below form when beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Southwell last time. Had been in good form prior and returns from a break with the trainer in form. Effective at 6f with most form on the all-weather. Six-time AW winner; runner-up at Southwell in September but below his best 124 days ago.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 +10%) Justcallmepete		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(1) Justcallmepete 9/2, Bit below form when fourth, beaten 6l off a mark of 86 last time. Runs from the same mark here but has a wide draw. Effective at 6f and 7f, though the handicapper may have caught up. Completed a hat-trick when landing a C&D handicap; fourth in a higher grade last time.
6th	2 6th (2) (12/1 -33%) Intervention		12 12/1(-33%)																															(2) Intervention 12/1, Got no run and that effort can be ignored when seventh, beaten 9l off 86 last time. Races from 1lb lower here and the drop in grade is a help. Effective at 6f and 7f. Won at Lingfield off 3lb lower last month; latest effort is worth forgiving.
7th	8 7th (8) (11/1 -38%) Rebel Path		11 11/1(-38%)																															(8) Rebel Path 11/1, Well backed and probably had every chance, despite an inexperienced jockey, when beaten 3 1/2l off a mark 1lb higher at Newmarket in July. Trained by a top course handler and effective at 5f and 6f, though a bit below par of late. Dual C&D winner; below his best at Newmarket when last seen 159 days ago; back on the AW.
8th	3 8th (3) (4/1 -14%) Stanley Spencer		4 4/1(-14%)																															(3) Stanley Spencer 4/1, Bit below form when beaten 3l off a mark 1lb higher at Southwell last time. Effective at 6f on the all-weather, but a bounce back is needed to feature prominently. Beaten a neck at Southwell in November but he was below his best there 28 days ago.
9th	6 9th (6) (80/1 -220%) Media Shooter		80 80/1(-220%)																															(6) Media Shooter 80/1, Did well considering he blew the start when beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Kempton last time. Has a wide draw again but is effective at 6f and 7f and could bounce back. Three-time AW winner; struggled in three starts since joining this yard; dropped 3lb.

JUSTCALLMEPETE had been in a rich vein of form prior to a below-par effort at Lingfield last time out. However, with the majority of his rivals arriving with something to prove, it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the three-time C&D winner bounced back to winning ways. Aberama Gold is likely to enter the reckoning after his recent third at Newcastle, while Stanley Spencer and Twilight Fun might fare best of the remainder.

Justcallmepete is second choice behind KNEBWORTH who returns to the AW off a handy mark having been off since October.

1	1 1st (1) (11/4 +8%) My Boy Harry		2.75 11/4(+8%)																															(1) My Boy Harry 11/4, Went a bit wide turning in but did well when second, beaten a length off a mark of 60 last time. Runs off the same mark here, is effective over 7/8f, and is not ruled out returning to this course. An easy C&D win and a good 2nd at Lingfield since blinkers went on; bang there once more.
2	9 2nd (9) (10/1 -100%) Charlatan		10 10/1(-100%)																															(9) Charlatan 10/1, Travelled well but found little when seventh, beaten 6l off a mark of 53 last time, and runs off the same mark here. Trainer is in form, has a wide draw, and the drop in trip could be a plus. 5-time AW winner; disappointing finishing effort latest; drops in trip; still on fair mark.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/4 +55%) Bullington Bry		2.25 9/4(+55%)																															(5) Bullington Bry 9/4, Went a bit wide and ran below form when beaten 8l in a handicap at Southwell last time. Drawn wide again here, which is of no help. Ten-race maiden but has shown enough to think a small race could fall his way; e-w shout.
4	4 4th (4) (8/1 +60%) Amaysmont		8 8/1(+60%)																															(4) Amaysmont 8/1, Made too much use of when beaten 8l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Effective over 6-8f on this surface, but needs to drop the bit to return to form and the current mark looks stiff. Three course wins in 2024; dangerous mark if the return to this venue perks him up.
5th	3 5th (3) (25/1 -25%) Potters Prince		25 25/1(-25%)																															(3) Potters Prince 25/1, Was a no-show from off the pace when beaten 5 1/2l in a novice at Lingfield last time. Usually held up, comes here off a short break, is bred to be effective around 8f, but looks up against it on handicap debut. Not beaten far on his last two novice runs but the form may not be solid; handicap debut.
6th	8 6th (8) (25/1 -39%) You Are Everything		25 25/1(-39%)																															(8) You Are Everything 25/1, Ran below form when beaten 7l in a handicap at Kempton last time. Usually held up, is effective over 6-8f, and needs to bounce back. Fair chance on last summer's best turf efforts; 0-16 on AW but has course form.
7th	6 7th (6) (18/1 -125%) Impulse Buy		18 18/1(-125%)																															(6) Impulse Buy 18/1, Was a bit keen when tried in cheekpieces and did not get home, beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Lingfield last time. Effective over 6/7f and remains capable off this mark. Near miss over C&D in November but failed to build on it last time; still has low mileage.
8th	7 8th (7) (10/1 -43%) Thomas Equinas		10 10/1(-43%)																															(7) Thomas Equinas 10/1, Ran a bit below form when beaten 6l in a handicap at Lingfield last time, having been in good form prior. Drawn wide and will need to bounce back. All wins at Chelmsford; not at best last time but the return to this track can help.
9th	10 9th (10) (100/1 -300%) Lowestoft		100 100/1(-300%)																															(10) Lowestoft 100/1, Has shown no worthwhile form to date. Although there is speed in the pedigree, it is hard to make a case for. Poor form in his four starts and hung left at Southwell last week.
10th	2 10th (2) (6/1 -20%) Edergole's Gift		6 6/1(-20%)																															(2) Edergole's Gift 6/1, Ran to form in a new headgear combination when beaten a short-head off a 1lb lower mark at Lingfield last time. Effective over 6/7f and has a chance if building on that latest effort. C&D winner who went close at Lingfield last time; one to consider.

The introduction of cheekpieces, which are left off today, saw EDERGOLE'S GIFT return to form with a narrow second at Lingfield earlier this month and she makes grand appeal. Ryan Kavanagh's 5lb claim could prove crucial in her bid to go one better and she gets the nod over My Boy Harry. The Jim & Suzi Best-trained gelding has been in good heart of late and he's forecast to be in the mix once more, along with Thomas Equinas.

A tricky handicap in which THOMAS EQUINAS is marginally preferred to Edergole's Gift and My Boy Harry.

Posted an improved effort over 1m6f at Wolverhampton 145 days ago; upped further in trip.
2	8 2nd (8) (8/1 +33%) Hiconic		8 8/1(+33%)																															(8) Hiconic 8/1, Ran to form when beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Effective up to 16f on this surface and her mark continues to ease, which may help her competitiveness. Seven-time winner over hurdles but 0-10 on the AW; behind Taranjerine at Lingfield latest.
3	7 3rd (7) (25/1 -108%) Arenas Del Tiempo		25 25/1(-108%)																															(7) Arenas Del Tiempo 25/1, Lacked pace when beaten 6l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Enjoys making it and is effective over trips from 10f to 16f, but a bounce back is needed on this occasion. Ended a long losing run here in August but well held in her three starts since.
4	4 4th (4) (14/1 -40%) Sullivan Bay		14 14/1(-40%)																															(4) Sullivan Bay 14/1, Slowly away and below form when finishing down the field in a handicap at Kempton most recently. Effective up to 16f on this surface but has a bit to prove at present and may need this run. Failed to beat a rival when last seen (June) but both of his wins have been at this track.
5th	2 5th (2) (11/10 +37%) Taranjerine		1.1 11/10(+37%)																															(2) Taranjerine 11/10, Should have won, wearing cheekpieces for first time, when second beaten a head off 57 last time, 2lb higher here; effective 13-16f, acts on G and AW; good chance after small rise. Won here over 1m5f in November; bounced back when only just denied over 2m latest.
6th	1 6th (1) (7/1 -8%) Burano Murano		7 7/1(-8%)																															(1) Burano Murano 7/1, Poor hurdle debut well beaten in a juvenile hurdle at Kempton latest; cheekpieces first time; off a short-break; effective 10-12f, acts on GS and GF; fairly consistent. Struggled over hurdles when last seen two months ago but has shown ability on the Flat.
7th	6 7th (6) (33/1 -230%) Shibuya Song		33 33/1(-230%)																															(6) Shibuya Song 33/1, Poor run back on the Flat when comfortably held in a handicap at Southwell last time. Effective over 12f-14f but has enough to prove for now based on recent form. Won on the Flat in 2022 and over hurdles in 2024, but well beaten on recent stable debut.
8th	5 8th (5) (33/1 -313%) Alex The Great		33 33/1(-313%)																															(5) Alex The Great 33/1, Never in it after a slow start when well beaten in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Effective over 14f-16f, with all best form on this surface, but a bounce back is required. Three-time winner but he's been struggling in recent starts; others preferred.

Having posted his best effort to date when runner-up at Wolverhampton in September, Rogue Justice must enter calculations on this reappearance. The four-year-old has the potental to find further improvement now sent over two miles and isn't taken lightly, but TARANJERINE is slightly more compelling. Jim Boyle's charge was denied a clear run at a crucial stage when finishing a narrow second at Lingfield earlier this month and compensation may await. Shibuya Song is also worth a second look in a refitted visor.

Course winner TARANJERINE (nap) went close at Lingfield last time and is selected to go one better, with Sullivan Bay next best.

Effective at 7/8f and has a chance off his new mark with a capable rider claiming 7lb. Off the mark over C&D in first-time blinkers last time; up in grade off a 5lb higher mark.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/1 -56%) Straight A		7 7/1(-56%)																															(3) Straight A 7/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last time.

3	2 3rd (2) (5/1 -25%) H Key Lails		5 5/1(-25%)																															(2) H Key Lails 5/1, Enjoyed the run of the race back up in trip when second, beaten 1/2l off 68 last time, and is 1lb higher here. Effective at 7/8f and respected again. Dual course winner; running well since winning at Lingfield in November; can go well.
4	4 4th (4) (7/2 +13%) Gennadius		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(4) Gennadius 7/2, Improved for a longer trip when outclassing a poor field to win a maiden here by 8l last time. Effective from 6-8f and there may be more to come over 8f now handicapping. Pulled 8l clear in a weak maiden over this C&D two weeks ago; needs to build on that.
5th	7 5th (7) (10/3 +26%) Mandana		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(7) Mandana 10/3, Was a bit keen but ran to form when beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Kempton last time. Effective at this sort of trip, her mark is easing and she could be competitive again. 1-17 but posted creditable efforts on all three runs for this stable; place claims.
6th	5 6th (5) (40/1 -60%) Lady Justice		40 40/1(-60%)																															(5) Lady Justice 40/1, Never competitive up in trip when comfortably held in a handicap at Newmarket last time. From a top course trainer and off a short break, but up against it on 2025 evidence despite dropping to a nicer mark. Won a maiden at Epsom on her debut in 2024; never threatened in handicaps last year.
7th	6 7th (6) (4/1 +33%) Luminous Warrior		4 4/1(+33%)																															(6) Luminous Warrior 4/1, Ran to form up in trip when landing a handicap by a neck off a 6lb lower mark at Kempton last time. Effective at 7/8f, with his trainer in form, and can go well again. Off the mark at Kempton latest; up in grade off 6lb higher mark; could have more to offer.

The application of first-time blinkers appeared to transform recent C&D winner LEXINGTON JET and another big run looks likely. The four-year-old scored with enough in hand to suggest that he can overcome a 5lb rise and he edges the verdict over Gennadius. Richard Hannon's colt opened his account impressively at the 13th time of asking in a C&D maiden latest and should remain competitive back in a handicap. H Key Lails and Luminous Warrior are others to consider.

Lexington Jet could have more to offer over this trip but LUMINOUS WARRIOR is taken to follow up last month's Kempton win.

About U.K Horse Racing

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

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

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

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
