1	5 1st (5) (2/1 +60%) Stardhem		2 2/1(+60%)																															(5) Stardhem 2/1, In first-time cheekpieces, took a step forward from handicap/seasonal debut when runner-up at Lingfield (19.5f) in November. Was up with the strong pace for a long way when third at Warwick (19f, soft) last time and he could make a bold bid sent chasing. Remains a maiden but the ability is there to threaten off this mark on chase debut.
2	7 2nd (7) (11/2 +8%) Pescatorius		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(7) Pescatorius 11/2, Making only his second chase start, capitalised on falling mark when getting off the mark at Catterick (15.7f) in December. Unseated early next time, but back on track when fourth of 7 returned to Catterick (good to soft) 20 days ago. Merits consideration. Seems to have found his level over fences and should be involved.
3	4 3rd (4) (6/1 -9%) J'habite En France		6 6/1(-9%)																															(4) J'habite En France 6/1, Regressive over hurdles but proved a different proposition on fourth start over fences when readily landing handicap at this course (16.5f, soft) in January. Not quite in the same form at Market Rasen last time, but he could fare better back here. Won easily here in January but never threatened to follow up at Market Rasen.
4	3 4th (3) (6/1 +0%) Kankin		6 6/1(+0%)																															(3) Kankin 6/1, Successful at this C&D on chasing debut and doubled his tally at Fakenham (21.2f) in May. After a couple of below-par efforts, was yet to be asked for effort (in first-time cheekpieces) when falling 4 out back at Fakenham last month. Not ruled out. Can be up and down but was running well when tipping up at Fakenham.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/2 -38%) Pittsburg		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(6) Pittsburg 11/2, Returned to winning ways in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (16f) last summer and, after a couple of decent efforts on the Flat, creditable third back over fences at this C&D (good to soft) 2 weeks ago. Major player from 4 lb below his last winning mark. Came from off the pace when a 10l third here recently; could finish closer.
6th	8 6th (8) (20/1 +20%) Berliet Express		20 20/1(+20%)																															(8) Berliet Express 20/1, Dual winner over hurdles but remains a maiden over fences. From his tumbling mark, ran better than of late when fourth of 12 at this C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago, though others still preferred as he runs from 5 lb out of the weights. Jumped poorly when beaten 16l here two weeks ago, taking chase record to 0-27.
7th	2 7th (2) (80/1 -220%) Mcgrath From Clune		80 80/1(-220%)																															(2) Mcgrath From Clune 80/1, Good second in handicap chase at Thurles a year ago but has gone the wrong way since, tailed off when falling at Leicester (15.9f, soft) 11 weeks ago on first start since leaving Robert Tyner. Up in trip with cheekpieces applied. Lost his way in Ireland and he was in trouble when falling on stable debut at Leicester.
1	1 |PU| (1) (15/2 -173%) Thank You Blue		7.5 15/2(-173%)																															(1) Thank You Blue 15/2, Has shown promise sent chasing this season, making good late progress when third at Worcester (20f) in September. Travelled well before falling at the third last at Perth (20.1f, soft) 2 weeks later, so he's one to note after a break with yard going well. One promising run from five attempts at chasing; off since September, though.
9	9 |PU| (9) (80/1 -60%) Bombay Sunset		80 80/1(-60%)																															(9) Bombay Sunset 80/1, Second in a point bumper in 2022 but hasn't offered much under Rules, making first start since leaving Lucy Wadham (in first-time cheekpieces) when pulled up in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 2 weeks ago. Looks to be up against it. Has weak form claims from 6lb out of the weights; pulled up here on recent stable debut.

THANK YOU BLUE has clearly had his jumping issues, falling in two of his last three starts, but he still held every chance when coming a cropper three out at Perth last time and his stable have been firing in the winners of late. With William Shanahan taking a valuable 5lb off his back, he gets the vote ahead of chasing newcomer Stardhem, who has placed on his last couple of hurdle starts and also represents an in-form yard. Kankin completes the shortlist.

Having edged back down in the weights, PITTSBURG ran well when third behind a chasing debutant at this C&D a fortnight ago and he could be ready to take advantage of his current mark. He is preferred to Thank You Blue, who has been showing ability over fences but could do with brushing up his jumping, while Pescatorius also enters calculations.

All of these come with some risks. STARDHEM perhaps has the most upside now switched to fences.

1	4 1st (4) (15/2 +0%) Felton Bellevue		7.5 15/2(+0%)																															(4) Felton Bellevue 15/2, Ended long losing run at Southwell (24.3f) last March and made the frame in 4 of his next 5 starts. Lesser effort when fifth of 11 at Sedgefield (26.3f, heavy) last month, but no surprise to see him bounce back. Below best latest but had been holding his form well since winning at Southwell last March.
2	3 2nd (3) (5/1 -43%) Twilight Glory		5 5/1(-43%)																															(3) Twilight Glory 5/1, Won back-to-back handicaps at Chepstow last year and stepped up on his reappearance when recording a second success at this C&D (soft) in December. Again ran well when third at Chepstow (23.6f, heavy) last time and he's a major player back down in grade. Won this two years ago and has gained three further wins in the meantime.
3	2 3rd (2) (4/1 +43%) Summer In Milan		4 4/1(+43%)																															(2) Summer In Milan 4/1, Only modest form over hurdles for current yard, though ran better than on handicap debut when third at Fontwell (21.8f, soft) 25 days ago. However, he had placed on sole outing in Irish points, so he's one to note as he goes chasing. Placed in latest handicap hurdle and a possible improver now sent chasing over further.
4	9 4th (9) (5/1 +50%) Dysania		5 5/1(+50%)																															(9) Dysania 5/1, Not straightforward but bounced back from a below-par effort when runner-up at Southwell (24.3f, heavy) on New Year's Day. However, he was still in rear when falling 5 out at Ffos Las a fortnight ago. Others more persuasive. Struggles for consistency but has a big run in him, as penultimate effort shows.
5th	8 5th (8) (9/2 +50%) Watchoutitscookie		4.5 9/2(+50%)																															(8) Watchoutitscookie 9/2, With his recent run behind him, built on earlier promise over fences when making all in handicap at Newcastle (23.4f, good to soft) in December. Taken on for the lead when well held at this course (20f, soft) last time, so he's worth another chance. Not his first modest run on heavy ground last time, so a revival not out of the question.
7	7 |PU| (7) (4/1 +56%) The Cox Express		4 4/1(+56%)																															(7) The Cox Express 4/1, Bumper winner who remains a maiden over hurdles, though encouraging start over fences when runner-up in an Exeter handicap (19.2f, soft) in December. Failed to repeat that effort at Taunton last time, but it still remains early days for him as a chaser. Second on chase debut but that was at 2m3f and he was a weakener over 2m7f next time.
1	1 |PU| (1) (15/2 -7%) Heaven Smart		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(1) Heaven Smart 15/2, Made all in handicap chase at Kempton a year ago but mixed form since, including over hurdles. In first-time tongue strap, below form back over fences at Fontwell (27.7f, heavy) 25 days ago, though he's now below his winning mark with cheekpieces reapplied. Hasn't achieved a great deal since winning off 4lb higher at Kempton 12 months ago.
5	5 |PU| (5) (50/1 -100%) Game Line		50 50/1(-100%)																															(5) Game Line 50/1, Fair handicap chaser at best who finished runner-up twice in 2022/23. However, after a 26-month absence he offered little when pulled up at Ffos Las (25.3f, heavy) in December. Has enough to prove at present. Pulled up at Ffos Las two months ago when back from an absence of just over two years.

Not beaten too far in his attempt to complete the double at Chepstow last month, TWILIGHT GLORY can mount a bold bid here, especially if his jumping sharpens up. A comfortable scorer over an extended 2m7f at this track on his penultimate outing, the nine-year-old gets the vote ahead of Felton Bellevue, who has been placed on two of his last three outings. Racing Snake and Summer In Milan are likely to enter the reckoning as well.

TWILIGHT GLORY has returned better than ever this season, adding to his tally at this C&D before a good third at Chepstow (form boosted by the runner-up since) last month, so he is taken to resume winning ways. Racing Snake fared better than previously under Rules when third here 20 days ago and could be the main danger, ahead of Watchoutitscookie.

Tim Vaughan's TWILIGHT GLORY arrives in good form for his bid to emulate his 2023 win in this race.

1	4 1st (4) (2/1 +64%) Jubilant		2 2/1(+64%)																															(4) Jubilant 2/1, Showed useful winning form in bumpers but yet to hit those heights sent hurdling and was pulled up on his handicap debut here on most recent outing. Steps up in trip and fitted with a first-time tongue strap. Yet to replicate bumper form; early days and he was favourite for handicap debut (2m4f).
2	5 2nd (5) (5/2 +38%) Gustoso		2.5 5/2(+38%)																															(5) Gustoso 5/2, Produced a career best to double his career tally at Hereford (25.5f) in December. Ran too badly to be true at Wincanton subsequently. Worth another chance. Won at Hereford (3m2f, good to soft) in December but flopped at Wincanton five weeks ago.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/1 -80%) Tigerbythetail		9 9/1(-80%)																															(1) Tigerbythetail 9/1, Didn't need to improve to get off the mark in 7-runner maiden hurdle at Catterick (25.3f, good to soft) 10 days ago. More required back in handicap company under a penalty. Won by wide margin in maiden at Catterick (3m1f, good to soft) ten days ago; 7lb penalty.
4	3 4th (3) (4/1 -100%) Punxsutawney Phil		4 4/1(-100%)																															(3) Punxsutawney Phil 4/1, Staged a full-scale revival from somewhat out of the blue when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle at Newcastle (20.3f, good to soft) last week, easily. Big chance if turning up in similar form under a penalty. Won at Musselburgh (3m) in December and by 16l at Newcastle (extended 2m4f) last Thursday.
2	2 |PU| (2) (10/1 -186%) Playtogetaway		10 10/1(-186%)																															(2) Playtogetaway 10/1, Got back on track reverting to hurdling when winning 9-runner handicap at Southwell (20.4f, good, 18/1) in November. Bred to stay well so worthy of respect in follow-bid over this longer trip. Back hurdling with a win at Southwell (2m4f) in November; unraced beyond 2m5f under rules.
6	6 |PU| (6) (17/2 +58%) Aquila Sky		8.5 17/2(+58%)																															(6) Aquila Sky 17/2, Eleven runs since last win in 2021 but took a step back in the right direction when seventh of 17 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (24.4f, good to soft, 33/1) 27 days ago. Blinkers on for 1st time. 7th of 17 at Doncaster last time was easily the most positive of three runs this winter.

PUNXSUTAWNEY PHIL has shown twice in his last four starts that he is dangerous when allowed to dictate matters and, despite having to shoulder a 7lb penalty for last week's Newcastle success, he is fancied to dominate from the front again. If there is one to pester him it could be Tigerbythetail, who warrants plenty of respect following his first Rules victory at Catterick 10 days ago. Southwell scorer Playtogetaway will be waiting to pick up the pieces if they go too hard.

PUNXSUTAWNEY PHIL quickened right away in the straight at Newcastle last week and will surely be hard to beat if turning up in similar form under a penalty. Playtogetaway is feared most ahead of Gustoso.

A winner last week, PUNXSUTAWNEY PHIL is the form pick if he backs that up. It's a new trip for Playtogetaway but he is feared most.

1	8 1st (8) (5/2 +55%) Last Rodeo		2.5 5/2(+55%)																															(8) Last Rodeo 5/2, Built on his debut fourth when third of 12 in novice hurdle at Taunton (16.5f, soft, 66/1) 43 days ago. Merits consideration with further progress on the cards. Eyecatching third at Taunton last time and he looks interesting on this step up in trip.
2	10 2nd (10) (9/1 +55%) Washington Singer		9 9/1(+55%)																															(10) Washington Singer 9/1, Being brought along steadily, set a lot to do when third of 12 in novice at Hereford (16.2f, good to soft) on his hurdles bow 36 days ago. Sort to do better in due course. Shaped with promise at Hereford last month and he's not ruled out upped in trip.
3	3 3rd (3) (10/1 -25%) Cauvicourt		10 10/1(-25%)																															(3) Cauvicourt 10/1, Little show in a pair of bumpers but second of 3 in novice at Fontwell (19.1f, soft) on his hurdles bow 25 days ago. May do better still so he's no forlorn hope. Made promising start over hurdles behind a useful rival at Fontwell (2m3f); respected.
4	5 4th (5) (11/4 -10%) Drayton Flyer		2.75 11/4(-10%)																															(5) Drayton Flyer 11/4, Promising debut bumper second and he again shaped well when runner-up in novice here (16f, soft) on his hurdles bow 20 days ago. Goes up in trip and open to improvement. Big shout. Runner-up in Wetherby bumper and a 2m maiden hurdle at this track; big player up in trip.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/2 -35%) Golan Loop		4.5 9/2(-35%)																															(6) Golan Loop 9/2, Winning Irish pointer but he failed to build on earlier promise when an odds-on third of 6 in novice hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, soft) 24 days ago. Worth another chance. Sets the standard on his best form but was disappointing when odds-on at Plumpton latest.
6th	1 6th (1) (11/2 +8%) Blue Bellamy		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(1) Blue Bellamy 11/2, Fair form in bumpers and made an encouraging start in this sphere when third of 7 in novice hurdle here (16f, soft) 20 days ago. Up in trip with more to offer. Considered. Placed on hurdling debut here last month and he's open to progress upped in trip.
7th	7 7th (7) (28/1 -40%) Graham		28 28/1(-40%)																															(7) Graham 28/1, Fairly useful Flat winner for Richard Hannon but yet to show that form for new yard over hurdles at Leicester and Kempton this winter. In good hands and may still do better though. Fairly useful on the Flat but he's been well held in two hurdle runs for new yard.
8th	4 8th (4) (28/1 +44%) Dark Mystery		28 28/1(+44%)																															(4) Dark Mystery 28/1, Fair winner at 12f on Flat who posted a solid fourth at Southwell (16.5f) 21 days ago. Showed promise on his sole hurdling start in December, 2022, so can't be discounted. Just 1-26 on the Flat and his only hurdle run was a long time ago; best watched.
9th	2 9th (2) (250/1 -67%) Bollin Thou		250 250/1(-67%)																															(2) Bollin Thou 250/1, Well held in a pair of maiden hurdles at Lingfield and Exeter either side of Christmas. Others appeal more. Tailed off in sole bumper and same story in two hurdle runs this winter.
9	9 |PU| (9) (33/1 -230%) Ledders		33 33/1(-230%)																															(9) Ledders 33/1, A fairly useful bumper winner but off the track for 23 months. Needs to hit the ground running on his hurdles debut. Bumper winner but he now switches to hurdling after long layoff; market informative.
11	11 |PU| (11) (250/1 -279%) Brenda		250 250/1(-279%)																															(11) Brenda 250/1, Offered little in a pair of bumpers for Laura Mongan. Goes hurdling now and needs her yard switch to spark major improvement. Tailed off in two bumpers and can only be watched now switched to hurdling for new yard.

Runner-up on both career outings thus far, including on his hurdles debut over 2m here last month, DRAYTON FLYER looks just the type to improve for going up in distance and this may be an ideal opportunity to get off the mark. Behind him last time was Blue Bellamy (third), who may well be in the mix again, while Golan Loop aims to bounce back from a disappointing effort when a short-priced favourite at Plumpton most recently.

DRAYTON FLYER has gone with some promise when runner-up on both his runs to date and is fancied to get off the mark here now stepping up in distance. Last Rodeo also has better days ahead of him and could emerge as the main danger to Olly Murphy's 6-y-o, although Golan Loop has the form to play a big part if back on his A-game. Blue Bellamy and Dark Mystery need shortlisting too.

Several have possibilities but last month's Lingfield runner-up DRAYTON FLYER gets the vote ahead of Last Rodeo and Cauvicourt.

1	4 1st (4) (10/1 +0%) Dramatic Encore		10 10/1(+0%)																															(4) Dramatic Encore 10/1, Showed a bit more than on debut when fourth of 8 in bumper at this course (15.8f, heavy, 10/3) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip and she's bred to make a jumper. Fourth in both bumpers; pedigree bodes well for this longer trip on hurdle debut.
2	12 2nd (12) (9/4 +25%) Sea Presenting		2.25 9/4(+25%)																															(12) Sea Presenting 9/4, Third on sole start in points and has shaped encouragingly in finishing third both starts under Rules, needing stiffer test at Ludlow latterly. Remains with potential. Her form is right up there in this company and she's open to improvement.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/4 +17%) Betty's Tiara		2.75 11/4(+17%)																															(2) Betty's Tiara 11/4, Got back on track returned to a novice when second of 11 in maiden hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f, soft, 7/2) 15 days ago, needing stiffer test. Looks more or less exposed now but respected nonetheless in this company. Just a length ahead of Sea Presenting last time and this mare was better positioned.
4	9 4th (9) (15/2 -7%) Pismo Beach		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(9) Pismo Beach 15/2, Hinted at ability sole outing in bumpers and showed appreciably more than first time up over hurdles when second of 10 in 19f novice at Warwick (good to soft, 11/1) 31 days ago. Open to further improvement and should go well. Improved to be second at Warwick but perhaps has more on her plate this time.
5th	14 5th (14) (7/1 -75%) Smile Back		7 7/1(-75%)																															(14) Smile Back 7/1, £30,000 Irish point winner who produced an impressive display when taking Carlisle bumper in December, galloping strongly and pulling clear with the promising runner-up. Well held up in grade at Market Rasen subsequently but still an interesting hurdling debutante now moving up in trip. Lost unbeaten record in a Listed bumper; should have a future under rules.
6th	6 6th (6) (14/1 +44%) Hello Cello		14 14/1(+44%)																															(6) Hello Cello 14/1, Went backwards from hurdling bow when only seventh of 11 in novice hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 56 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tailed off last time but her two previous runs were mildly encouraging.
7th	10 7th (10) (150/1 -88%) Ramalamadingdong		150 150/1(-88%)																															(10) Ramalamadingdong 150/1, Well held in bumper on debut and just modest form at best in 2 runs over hurdles. 50-1 when a long way behind Betty's Tiara and Sea Presenting at Ludlow 15 days ago.
8th	13 8th (13) (125/1 -213%) Shorten Sassy		125 125/1(-213%)																															(13) Shorten Sassy 125/1, Telescope filly. Dam (h120), hurdle winner around 3m, half-sister to useful hurdler/fairly useful chase winner (stays 3m) Copper Coin. Looked green when unseating rider early doors at Ludlow on debut. Jumped the first hurdle at Ludlow slowly and unseated when repeating the trick at second.
9th	7 9th (7) (20/1 0%) Land Girl's Luck		20 20/1(0%)																															(7) Land Girl's Luck 20/1, Placed both starts in point bumpers and repeated the feat switched to an open race at Newcastle 23 days ago, despite swishing tail under pressure. Upped in trip for hurdle bow. Made a pleasing start under rules when close up in a Newcastle bumper on the AW.
10th	8 10th (8) (40/1 -21%) Only Gossip		40 40/1(-21%)																															(8) Only Gossip 40/1, Winning pointer who left previous Rules efforts well behind in a first-time hood when third in 21.4f novice at Wincanton 3 weeks ago. Needs more again, however. Beaten 16l when better for the hood at Wincanton and will need plenty more here.
11th	15 11th (15) (300/1 -50%) Varinia		300 300/1(-50%)																															(15) Varinia 300/1, Winner of the second of her 2 starts between the flags but hasn't shown much in a bumper/mares' novice hurdles since embarking on a career under Rules. Has been beaten between 47l and 72l in three runs under rules, the last two over hurdles.
12th	5 12th (5) (80/1 +47%) Fortune Dancer		80 80/1(+47%)																															(5) Fortune Dancer 80/1, Off the mark in Irish points at third attempt in February 2023 but has shown little both starts over hurdles. After a break of 641 days, she's been tailed off on soft ground.
3	3 |PU| (3) (11/2 -38%) Diamonds Galore		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(3) Diamonds Galore 11/2, Has shown ability in bumpers without setting the world alight but she's a useful-looking mare who could do better now going jumping over further. Not strong placed form in bumpers but she's bred to improve for hurdles.
1	1 |PU| (1) (150/1 -200%) Astroscope		150 150/1(-200%)																															(1) Astroscope 150/1, Telescope mare. Dam (c94/h99), 23f-25f hurdle winner, half-sister to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 3m) Geordie B. Wears hood. No experience and the immediate fitting of headgear is a cause for concern.
11	11 |PU| (11) (200/1 -150%) Rubymurree		200 200/1(-150%)																															(11) Rubymurree 200/1, Milan mare out of a bumper/2¼m hurdle winner but offered little on last month's debut at Taunton. Up in trip. Market drifter when completely tailed off in a Taunton maiden after racing too freely.

DIAMONDS GALORE showed promise in her three bumper starts, placing in two of them, and she now makes her hurdling debut for the Nicky Henderson team. The daughter of Diamond Boy looks to have found a suitable opportunity and could get off the mark at the first time of asking in this sphere. Betty's Tiara beat Sea Presenting (third) when she occupied the runner-up berth at Ludlow last time and she can confirm that form in order to have a say. Dramatic Encore completes the shortlist.

It was by no means a strong race PISMO BEACH was runner-up in at Warwick last month, but she shaped notably well in coming from the opposite end of the field to the winner and is taken to get off the mark with the likelihood of further improvement. Smile Back and Sea Presenting are considered the main threats.

Betty's Tiara was just ahead of SEA PRESENTING at Ludlow but the latter came from much further back.

1	3 1st (3) (9/2 -80%) Mighty Moth		4.5 9/2(-80%)																															(3) Mighty Moth 9/2, Placed twice in bumpers and off the mark at third attempt over hurdles at Hereford last season. Similar form over fences, good second at Wincanton over Christmas prior to finishing third at Huntingdon 4 weeks ago. Cheekpieces go on now and she could do with brushing up her jumping. Went close in her second chase start and didn't appear to stay 2m7f the last time.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/5 -26%) Fortunefavorsdbold		2.2 11/5(-26%)																															(4) Fortunefavorsdbold 11/5, Course winner who has displayed more positive signs from her reduced mark of late, jumping soundly and rallying well once headed when runner-up back here (23.5f, soft) 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces go back on and she's shortlisted back down in trip. Goes well in the mud but a lot of her best runs - and all wins - have been at about 3m.
3	5 3rd (5) (15/8 +53%) Bolintlea		1.875 15/8(+53%)																															(5) Bolintlea 15/8, Fair chaser who has been holding her form well of late, looking set to be placed for a long way when fifth of 11 in handicap chase at Fakenham (21.2f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Assessor has given her a chance and she's respected. Jumping can be an issue but she has a competitive show in her at this level.
4	1 4th (1) (3/1 +25%) Easy To Follow		3 3/1(+25%)																															(1) Easy To Follow 3/1, Dual novice hurdle scorer last winter who resumed with a good second in handicap company at Bangor (19.5f) in October. Disappointed with that in mind at Leicester in December but she boasts a pointing background and no surprise to see her back on track now sent chasing. Chasing debutante and, although below par in her final hurdle race, a case can be made.

FORTUNEFAVORSDBOLD arrives here on the back of a second over an extended 2m7f at this venue last month and the drop in trip could see the seven-year-old go one better, despite a 1lb rise. Mighty Moth is another with claims in first-time cheekpieces, while it's also worth keeping a close eye on Bolintlea, who placed at this track two starts ago.

FORTUNEFAVORSDBOLD confirmed her return to form when a rallying second over further here 3 weeks ago and she could be ready to strike from her reduced mark, with cheekpieces refitted. Bolintlea might be the danger.

This is trappy as a case can be made for all four. MIGHTY MOTH edges preference after her stamina was stretched over further last time.

1	5 1st (5) (22/1 +12%) Kingoftheswingerz		22 22/1(+12%)																															(5) Kingoftheswingerz 22/1, Back to best when runner-up at Ffos Las (20f) in November. However, wasn't in same form at Southwell last time and drop back in trip isn't sure to suit. Cheekpieces on first time. Good second on 2m4f reappearance but well held since; down in trip with cheekpieces added.
2	4 2nd (4) (3/1 +45%) Dirty Den		3 3/1(+45%)																															(4) Dirty Den 3/1, Fair bumper performer who posted his best effort for current yard when creditable second of 17 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 35 days ago, running on. 3 lb higher now but is one for shortlist. Form of latest Wincanton second looks solid and good claimer takes 5lb off; considered.
3	7 3rd (7) (4/1 +11%) Soldier's Leap		4 4/1(+11%)																															(7) Soldier's Leap 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden who has upped his game since sent handicapping, latest when good second of 11 at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft) 35 days ago, clear of rest. 6 lb higher now but further progress may be forthcoming. Had wind operation. Runner-up in both handicaps and has to enter the reckoning back from wind surgery.
4	6 4th (6) (16/1 +20%) Jackeline		16 16/1(+20%)																															(6) Jackeline 16/1, Built on earlier promise to get off the mark in 9-runner handicap hurdle at Hereford (16.2f) in December. Failed to repeat that effort over longer trip at Fakenham since, though, and percentage call is to look elsewhere. Faded over 2m4f latest but successful over 2m at Hereford prior to that.
5th	9 5th (9) (28/1 -75%) Jessie Jump Jet		28 28/1(-75%)																															(9) Jessie Jump Jet 28/1, Best effort over timber came when third in Uttoxeter maiden (15.8f) in November. Finished well beaten over longer trips since but is worth monitoring in market on handicap debut. Early days but her opening handicap mark demands plenty of improvement.
6th	16 6th (16) (10/3 -33%) Far Away West		3.333333 10/3(-33%)																															(16) Far Away West 10/3, Back from 3 months off and gambled on when creditable second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Catterick (15.7f, good) on debut for new yard 29 days ago. Entitled to build on that and holds strong claims. Promising start for Dan Skelton when second at Catterick last month; big player.
7th	2 7th (2) (40/1 +20%) Victory Club		40 40/1(+20%)																															(2) Victory Club 40/1, Landed a bumper for Dan Skelton in 2022. Missed whole of following year but offered more when runner-up in a Wincanton maiden in March. Yet to fire in a trio of starts this term, though, and now tried in tongue strap/cheekpieces. Held in in three handicaps; needs first-time headgear combination to spark improvement.
8th	8 8th (8) (50/1 -25%) Ballela Blaze		50 50/1(-25%)																															(8) Ballela Blaze 50/1, Easy winner sole start in Irish points in March 2023 but comfortably held in a bumper and 3 hurdles under Rules since. Plenty to prove on switch to handicapping. More realistic chance now handicapping but his mark isn't obviously generous.
11	11 |PU| (11) (4/1 +38%) Morandi Second		4 4/1(+38%)																															(11) Morandi Second 4/1, Scored on the Flat at Catterick in October and has acquitted himself well in both hurdles starts since, latest when creditable second of 10 in handicap at Market Rasen (16.6f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Must enter calculations. Flat win in autumn and placed in two handicap hurdles since; enters calculations.
3	3 |PU| (3) (11/1 +21%) Highway One O Five		11 11/1(+21%)																															(3) Highway One O Five 11/1, Still looking for first success and was below best when third of 4 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, good, 5/2) 94 days ago. Back down in trip now and more is needed to get off the mark. Consistent in handicaps since last March and back from break with yard going well; claims.
1	1 |PU| (1) (28/1 -133%) Donald Llewellyn		28 28/1(-133%)																															(1) Donald Llewellyn 28/1, Won 3 times on the Flat in 2023. Showed something to work with when fifth of 18 in a novice hurdle at Newbury on penultimate start and although slightly disappointing on final qualifying run, he looks the type to do better in handicap hurdles. One to note in the betting on comeback. Potential improver in handicap hurdle but not seen for 407 days; betting should guide.
10	10 |PU| (10) (66/1 -230%) Castle Quarter		66 66/1(-230%)																															(10) Castle Quarter 66/1, Fair Flat winner who made a good start in handicap hurdles in summer of 2022, finishing runner-up twice at this sort of trip. Progress stalled thereafter, however, and remains to be seen how much ability he retains back from a very long absence. Long absence but placed off higher marks and his yard is in form; worth a betting check.
15	15 |PU| (15) (100/1 -203%) Shabano		100 100/1(-203%)																															(15) Shabano 100/1, Yet to score on Flat or over hurdles and has offered little in a couple of starts for current yard. Makes limited appeal on handicap hurdle debut. Regressive on Flat and no real promise in three hurdles; handicap hurdle debut.

MORANDI SECOND produced a good effort when he finished second at Market Rasen earlier in the month and only has a 1lb higher rating to contend with today. Patrick Neville's six-year-old remains on a workable mark and he looks the one to beat. Dirty Den took the silver medal home at Wincanton last month and is a previous course winner to take seriously. Of the remainder, Soldier's Leap makes the most appeal.

FAR AWAY WEST found only an improving sort too good for her at Catterick last month and remains on a workable mark. She gets the nod in an open-looking contest. Soldier's Leap and Dirty Den head the list of dangers.

The pick is FAR AWAY WEST (nap) on the back of a promising first run for Dan Skelton at Catterick last month.

1	2 1st (2) (16/1 +20%) Has Troke		16 16/1(+20%)																															(2) Has Troke 16/1, Has gone off the boil of late, failing to be revitalised by the fitting of more severe headgear (left off today) when pulled up over fences last month. Returns to hurdles in search of a confidence boost and best to look elsewhere. Pulled up over fences last twice and he needs a major revival back over hurdles.
2	3 2nd (3) (5/1 -50%) Weaver's Answer		5 5/1(-50%)																															(3) Weaver's Answer 5/1, Has showed improved form for the addition of cheekpieces, running as well as ever when second of 10 at Hereford (25.5f) in December. Returns from a short break and it's interesting that both his previous wins have come when fresh. Leading claims. Good second at Hereford (3m2f) and he's still unexposed as a stayer; respected.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/2 +72%) Three Zambezi's		4.5 9/2(+72%)																															(8) Three Zambezi's 9/2, Placed in Irish points but struggled under Rules. Not suited by emphasis on speed when ninth of 13 in a handicap at Southwell (15.8f) in November before falling on latest outing in December. Needs to improve significantly for today's stiffer test but runners from this yard worth a market check. Has form figures of 0989F over hurdles and he needs to show a lot more at this new trip.
1	1 |PU| (1) (5/1 -186%) San Pedro		5 5/1(-186%)																															(1) San Pedro 5/1, Bounced back to form earlier this month (headgear refitted), making all to land the third Plumpton success of his career (winning race he'd won in 2024). Very much had the run of the race on that occasion but remains of interest racing off the same mark, having taken this in 2023. Turned things around with brave win at Plumpton and he's 3lb well in off same mark here.
5	5 |PU| (5) (15/2 -50%) Tropical Speed		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(5) Tropical Speed 15/2, Creditable third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (24f, good to soft, 9/2) on final start for Eoin Doyle last summer. Modest effort on debut for this yard but he's in excellent hands and it would be no surprise to see this lightly-raced type show improvement sooner rather than later. Made low-key start for new yard last month but he's in the mix on his best Irish form.
9	9 |PU| (9) (17/2 +39%) Falstaff		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(9) Falstaff 17/2, Well held in a bumper and qualifying runs before disappointing on handicap debut finishing eighth of 16 at Warwick (19f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Faces a longer trip on this occasion but difficult to make a strong case for. Unexposed 5yo but he needs plenty of progress on this switch to a staying trip.
4	4 |PU| (4) (22/1 -38%) Westtara		22 22/1(-38%)																															(4) Westtara 22/1, Left previous efforts behind when third in maiden at Plumpton in April 2024. Finished last season with a creditable third of 7 in a handicap hurdle at this course (25.8f, good), despite being keen. Needed the run on reappearance last month and should strip fitter for that outing. Veteran who is 1-15 in points and 0-6 over hurdles; others are more convincing.
10	10 |PU| (10) (25/1 -56%) Engaging Sam		25 25/1(-56%)																															(10) Engaging Sam 25/1, Showed he can be competitive from a basement mark when third over C&D in February and probably needed his comeback run (following 10 months off) in November. Races from 1 lb out of the handicap but holds place claims in a moderate race for the grade. Has run well over C&D but he's now 0-11 and has bit to prove after another break.
7	7 |PU| (7) (33/1 -106%) Grand Sabre		33 33/1(-106%)																															(7) Grand Sabre 33/1, Only minor promise in a couple of bumpers and has offered little in qualifying runs over hurdles. Needs to improve considerably for step up in trip/switch to handicap company. Unexposed 6yo and he's a possible improver upped in trip on handicap debut; market useful.

In a moderate event it is hard to oppose SAN PEDRO, who bounced back to form when winning over 3m1f at Plumpton 10 days ago. He does not have to carry a penalty for that success here, which leaves Chris Gordon's gelding 3lb well in. Weaver's Answer had to settle for second at Hereford most recently and may have to do so again. The rest all have questions to answer, but Tropical Speed is the pick of them.

Twice a winner over hurdles following a break, WEAVER'S ANSWER has been freshened up for this following a creditable second at Hereford in December and can land the spoils. San Pedro took this in 2023 and is interesting racing off the same mark as when making all at Plumpton 10 days ago, although he's unlikely to have it all his own way with fellow front-runner Westtara for company on this occasion. Engaging Sam has placed over C&D previously and may be able to finish in the money once again.

Most of these have something to prove but SAN PEDRO (nap) won at Plumpton last time and is now 3lb well in off the same mark.

1	1 1st (1) (7/2 +13%) Teddy Blue		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(1) Teddy Blue 7/2, Talented but his temperament started to look an issue for the Moore stable last season and he ran poorly on hurdles return for new yard at Cheltenham in November. Offered more, in first-time blinkers, when fifth on debut over fences at Musselburgh since, though, and can't be ruled out. Useful hurdler; fair start to chase career at Musselburgh 18 days ago; may do better.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/4 +56%) Royal King		1.75 7/4(+56%)																															(5) Royal King 7/4, Put poor previous run behind him when creditable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at this course (20.7f, soft) 28 days ago and looks nicely treated on return to larger obstacles. Interesting contender. Travelled well in 2m4f course handicap hurdle latest and return to 2m a help back chasing.
3	4 3rd (4) (11/2 +21%) Rumoursareflying		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(4) Rumoursareflying 11/2, Proved reliable over hurdles, making the frame on several occasions at this sort of trip. Very much a chaser on looks and pedigree but fell heavily on debut in this sphere at Wetherby last week. Drops back in grade now, however, and could be a player if none the worse for that spill. 0-10 over hurdles; fell five out on recent chase debut, too far out to predict anything.
4	2 4th (2) (7/1 -331%) Next Left		7 7/1(-331%)																															(2) Next Left 7/1, Taken well to fences this season, winning twice (both 20f) and posting good second of 6 at Southwell (20.4f, good) when last seen in October. Likely contender. Did well over fences in first half of season (including 2m4f wins) and player after break.
5th	3 5th (3) (10/3 +26%) Flamelco		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(3) Flamelco 10/3, Opened chase account on third start for current yard at Catterick in December and back in winners circle over C&D (soft) 16 days ago, despite tendency to jump left. May have been undone by testing conditions at Uttoxeter since and must enter calculations. C&D win in January but only third off 8lb higher since.

Next Left hasn't been seen since finishing second two starts on the bounce in October and he's an obvious contender, but today's drop in trip doesn't appear to be of benefit to him. With that in mind, preference is for FLAMELCO. Sarah Humphrey's charge hasn't always been the most consistent over fences, but he impressed when scoring over C&D from 7lb lower last month and a return to that level of performance would make him a tough nut to crack. Rumoursareflying heads the remainder.

ROYAL KING has chasing experience from his days in France and arrives on the back of a solid hurdles run here last month. He makes plenty of appeal. C&D winner Flamelco is feared most.

A chance is taken on ROYAL KING, who acquired chase experience in France and should prove suited by the return to 2m.

4	4 (4) (12/1 -50%) Angel's Dream		12 12/1(-50%)																															(4) Angel's Dream 12/1, Resumed winning ways over C&D in November but only sixth of 7 in handicap chase here following month. Sort to bounce back after a break. Unexposed chaser who won over C&D in November but he stopped quickly here last time.
5	5 (5) (12/1 +14%) Iskar D'airy		12 12/1(+14%)																															(5) Iskar D'airy 12/1, A fair 2m winner over hurdles for his current yard but he has yet to offer much a pair of handicap chases over C&D and at Huntingdon either side of Christmas. Lots more is required. Returned from long absence this winter and he's not shown much switched to chasing.
2	2 (2) (18/1 -50%) Odin's Quest		18 18/1(-50%)																															(2) Odin's Quest 18/1, Fair bumper/hurdles winner but well beaten in 15f Wincanton handicap hurdle on his return last month. Needs to take a big step forward now going chasing. Has only one eye; untried going left-handed and has plenty to prove on chase debut.
1	6 1st (6) (10/3 +72%) You Say Nothing		3.333333 10/3(+72%)																															(6) You Say Nothing 10/3, It's now 12 runs since his last win in 2023 and he comes here out of sorts, eighth of 10 in handicap chase at Warwick (16.2f, soft) 51 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. His last win was in May 2023 and he's generally struggled in the last 12 months.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +75%) King Of Brazil		3.5 7/2(+75%)																															(1) King Of Brazil 7/2, Dual chaser winner at this time last year but has struggled so far this season, retried over hurdles at Taunton last time. Hard to warm to. On dangerous back over fences but he needs a major turnaround.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/2 +38%) Superstylin		2.5 5/2(+38%)																															(3) Superstylin 5/2, C&D winner who wasn't disgraced when sixth of 12 in 2m4f handicap chase at Huntingdon 14 days ago, going well long way. Expected to be bang there back at 2m off a 3 lb lower mark. C&D winner who went close here three runs back; in the mix on this drop back in trip.
4	9 4th (9) (17/2 -31%) Shaw's Cross		8.5 17/2(-31%)																															(9) Shaw's Cross 17/2, On a long losing run but he arrives in decent nick, fourth of 11 in handicap chase here (20f, soft) 20 days ago. One for the shortlist despite being 1 lb "wrong" in the weights. Some fair efforts this winter but he's now 1-24 over fences and is on a long losing run.
5th	7 5th (7) (15/2 -329%) Miss Fedora		7.5 15/2(-329%)																															(7) Miss Fedora 15/2, Finally got off the mark over fences in 6-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (17f, soft) 24 days ago. Up 4 lb but she can make her presence felt again. Clearcut win from out of the weights at Plumpton; big player again off 4lb higher.
8	8 |PU| (8) (7/1 +13%) Amarillobymorning		7 7/1(+13%)																															(8) Amarillobymorning 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. Had a wind op before coming in a well-held seventh of 11 in handicap at Market Rasen (17.2f, good to soft, 13/2) on his debut over fences 34 days ago. In good hands but lots to prove with hood added. Still very lightly raced but he needs a transformation with hood added.

MISS FEDORA went in by 14 lengths in this class at Plumpton on her latest outing and a 4lb rise may prove to be on the lenient side. The six-year-old is relatively unexposed over fences and can complete the double. The main danger might be previous C&D winner Superstylin, who finished midfield over 2m4f at Huntingdon earlier in the month. This drop in trip and a 3lb lower rating could see him get closer, while Shaw's Cross is another to note.

Suzy Smith's C&D winner SUPERSTYLIN shaped as if this return to 2m would suit ideally when a strong-travelling sixth over 2m4f at Huntingdon last time so looks the way to go off a handy mark. Recent Plumpton scorer Miss Fedora rates the obvious threat with the reliable Shaw's Cross and C&D scorer Angel's Dream also in the picture.

Top of the list is MISS FEDORA who made her breakthrough over fences with a 14l win from out of the weights at Plumpton last month.

1	6 1st (6) (5/2 +25%) Alexandra Larose		2.5 5/2(+25%)																															(6) Alexandra Larose 5/2, Improved effort over hurdles when head second of 11 on Leicester handicap debut (20.5f, heavy) last month. Pulled 22 lengths clear of the third so a 5 lb rise looks fair enough. Big player. Useful pedigree; handicap debut much more like it when pipped at Leicester (2m4f, heavy).
2	3 2nd (3) (6/1 -50%) Love True		6 6/1(-50%)																															(3) Love True 6/1, Franch Flat winner. Tongue strap on first time (retained), running well when fell 2 out in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Catterick (19f, good) 29 days ago. Considered. Stalking the leaders when falling two out at Catterick (2m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago.
3	13 3rd (13) (50/1 -100%) Jailbird		50 50/1(-100%)																															(13) Jailbird 50/1, Modest Flat winner for Richard Bandey. Poor form in 3 juvenile hurdles for new yard before Christmas and looks to face a stiff task from 6 lb out of the weights on handicap hurdle debut. Has had wind surgery. Modest form to win a Flat handicap (11.6f); has not achieved much in three hurdle races.
4	7 4th (7) (10/1 -82%) Seasmoke		10 10/1(-82%)																															(7) Seasmoke 10/1, Prominent racer who made it third time lucky in handicaps at Market Rasen (20.5f, good) last May. deserving credit for holding on having been hassled up front throughout in a strongly-run affair. Could have more to come but peak fitness has to be taken on trust after 9 months off. Won from the front at Market Rasen (2m5f) last May; 3lb higher for today's first run since.
5th	4 5th (4) (13/2 +35%) Briery Butterfly		6.5 13/2(+35%)																															(4) Briery Butterfly 13/2, Barely modest form in 2 bumpers and 3 novice hurdles but handicaps provide her with a much more realistic chance. One to note in the betting. Improvement is required on this handicap debut but she is bred to do much better.
6th	9 6th (9) (4/1 +43%) Queen Of Steel		4 4/1(+43%)																															(9) Queen Of Steel 4/1, Modest maiden under both codes for Mark Usher but nicely treated on her best form and market confidence could prove significant having switched to the Fergal O'Brien yard ahead of this first outing since September. 0-25 Flat and hurdling, nearly all for Mark Usher; bits of 2024 form give each-way chance.
7th	5 7th (5) (8/1 +50%) A Little Something		8 8/1(+50%)																															(5) A Little Something 8/1, Improved when third on 2m Hereford handicap debut in December but failed to build on that promise when weakening into a well-held sixth over 19f at Taunton since. Twice placed over 2m but her step up to 2m3f at Taunton last time was a lesser effort.
8th	10 8th (10) (14/1 -56%) Malinka		14 14/1(-56%)																															(10) Malinka 14/1, Fair Flat performer who made a winning debut over hurdles at Cartmel (17f, heavy) in August. Hasn't managed to advance her form since but her penultimate Leicester handicap third shows she can be competitive from her mark. Won hurdle/stable debut at Cartmel (2m1f, heavy) last August, which she has not built on.
2	2 |F| (2) (11/1 +21%) Leave Her To Me		11 11/1(+21%)																															(2) Leave Her To Me 11/1, Bumper winner in 2022 and came good at the second time of asking over hurdles back from an absence at Uttoxeter last July. Not quite in the same form since, finishing a well-held fourth in a Hereford handicap when last seen 12 weeks ago. A short break needs to have done her some good. Maiden winner; needs to put latest outing well behind her; 10lb claimer is recruited.
1	1 |PU| (1) (12/1 -50%) Solid Silver		12 12/1(-50%)																															(1) Solid Silver 12/1, Fair bumper performer who showed similar form on the Flat without winning for Sir Mark Prescott. Only poor form in 3 qualifying runs over hurdles for new yard (beaten 25 lengths when third latest) but handicaps provide her with more of a chance. Latest was the best of three runs for yard; this is handicap hurdle debut over a new trip.
11	11 |PU| (11) (25/1 +50%) Runaway Bride		25 25/1(+50%)																															(11) Runaway Bride 25/1, No show over hurdles, including pulled up on Uttoxeter handicap debut in December. Plenty of improvement will be needed back from a short break. Low-level form at best; pulled up on handicap debut (2m4f, soft) on latest start.
12	12 |PU| (12) (80/1 -21%) Habibi		80 80/1(-21%)																															(12) Habibi 80/1, Promise on first of 3 starts in bumpers for Nigel Twiston-Davies but hasn't offered much in varied events over hurdles, well held in novice claiming hurdle at Ludlow (2m, soft) last time. Looks to be up against it. Third on bumper debut at Newbury in December 2023 but she's struggled since.

Alexandra Larose took a giant leap forward on her handicap debut last month, as she went down by a narrow margin at Leicester. A 5lb rise in the handicap shouldn't be any barrier to success and she merits respect, along with recent Market Rasen scorer Seasmoke, but the vote goes to LOVE TRUE. The five-year-old looked set to play a leading role when coming to grief two from home at Catterick recently, she was eased 1lb for her troubles and, if none the worse for that tumble, won't be far away.

ALEXANDRA LAROSE was well clear of the third when narrowly denied on her Leicester handicap debut last month and is taken to go one better now. Love True had yet to be asked for her effort when coming down 2 out at Catterick last time and is a possible threat if none the worse, while Queen of Steel has been the subject of an interesting trainer change and also merits respect.

Alexandra Larose and Love True are shortlisted but a chance is taken on QUEEN OF STEEL on her first run for Fergal O'Brien.

1	5 1st (5) (4/1 +60%) Susiesparkle		4 4/1(+60%)																															(5) Susiesparkle 4/1, Winner at Thirsk (12f) in September. Respectable 5¾ lengths sixth of 12 to Rock Armour in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 6 days ago. That ought to have blown the cobwebs away but work to do if she's to reverse placings with that rival here. Beaten just under 6l by Rock Armour over C&D last week, her first run since wind surgery.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/2 +36%) Cusack		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(2) Cusack 9/2, 7-time course winner. Latest win here in January. Seventh of 9 in handicap (3/1) at this course (8f) 20 days ago, weakening final 1f. Back up in trip and he's not out of things. 1m win last month was his seventh course success but weakened quickly latest.
3	3 3rd (3) (1/1 +47%) Rock Armour		1 1/1(+47%)																															(3) Rock Armour 1/1, 15/2 and blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D 6 days ago, readily. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and definite claims if headgear has desired effect once more. Reacted well to blinkers when off mark over C&D last week; should go well under a penalty.
4	7 4th (7) (13/2 +13%) Rampant		6.5 13/2(+13%)																															(7) Rampant 13/2, Maiden who has run with credit both starts for new yard, refitted with cheekpieces when fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 70 days ago, running on. Respected with his rider taking off a valuable 7 lb. Reached frame in C&D handicaps on first two runs for new yard; thereabouts again.
5th	4 5th (4) (12/1 +52%) Bird Of Play		12 12/1(+52%)																															(4) Bird Of Play 12/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap (33/1) at this course (8f) 20 days ago, slowly away and always behind. Handicapper has eased him further but has it to prove nevertheless. Up in trip. 7f winner in May 2023 but struggled in three 1m starts for this yard; up in trip.
6th	6 6th (6) (28/1 +44%) Hot Team		28 28/1(+44%)																															(6) Hot Team 28/1, C&D winner who registered victories at Carlisle/Hamilton last season. Not at best in 2 starts this winter, last of 9 in a C&D handicap in December. Drop back down in class can help but others preferred in any case. Eight turf wins but only 1-33 on AW, including last of nine over C&D latest.

Book Of Life was said to have benefitted from a step up in trip when winning over an extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton recently. Another bold showing is likely today, but the vote goes to ROCK ARMOUR. John Butler's charge recorded a comfortable victory over track and trip last Friday and a 5lb penalty might not be enough to prevent him from repeating the dose. Rampant is another to consider.

BOOK OF LIFE and Rock Armour readily appeal most as a pair of last-time-out winners, the former narrowly selected to come out on top with the possibility of more to come at this sort of trip. Rampant can emerge best of the remainder.

Last-time-out winners BOOK OF LIFE and Rock Armour may dominate, with the narrow preference for the former.

1	4 1st (4) (8/15 +33%) Double Oban		0.533333 8/15(+33%)																															(4) Double Oban 8/15, Made it 3 wins from his last 4 hurdles starts over C&D 9 days ago, well-positioned (held up) off a sound gallop and seemingly better the further he went. Wouldn't want this to be a crawl but nevertheless makes strong appeal racing off same mark as last week (due to go up 10 lb in future). Easily beat Through The Ages here last week; no penalty and he's up 10lb in future.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/4 +21%) Through The Ages		2.75 11/4(+21%)																															(2) Through The Ages 11/4, Dual hurdles winner last season (both when making the running) and has returned to form this year, a creditable effort when 6½ lengths second of 8 to Double Oban over C&D (heavy) 9 days ago and possible that a return to more positive tactics could see him finish closer now. Beaten in seven handicaps, the latest when no match at all for Double Oban.
3	7 3rd (7) (8/1 +50%) Simon The Seagull		8 8/1(+50%)																															(7) Simon The Seagull 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler placed for the first time on latest outing, benefitting from positive ride/first-time blinkers and a drop in distance when third in a handicap over C&D last month. Head carriage suggests he might not be the most straightforward and tough ask from 5 lb out of handicap. Beaten about 10l last time in new blinkers and he's 5lb out of the weights for this.
4	5 4th (5) (16/1 +0%) Clinton Lane		16 16/1(+0%)																															(5) Clinton Lane 16/1, Has won a couple of races in maiden/novice company but yet to look like winning a handicap, latest effort finishing seventh of 11 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (16.7f, heavy) 13 days ago. Others looks more progressive. 0-7 in handicaps and will need to run better than he did at Bangor in the latest.
5th	6 5th (6) (33/1 -175%) Orange Diamond		33 33/1(-175%)																															(6) Orange Diamond 33/1, Fairly useful handicap hurdler in France. Campaigned over fences for current yard and looked sure to be involved in the finish when falling 2 out at Hereford (20.9f) back in February last year. However not seen since pulling up (lame) over hurdles the following month and market may be best guide. Won in France but failed to complete in six races for current yard, the latest a year ago.

DOUBLE OBAN successfully completed the double in a conditional jockeys' handicap over C&D on his latest outing and is able to compete off the same rating. Olly Murphy's five-year-old could have more to offer and can continue his rise through the ranks. Through The Ages finished second behind the selection last time and it would be no surprise if he were to prove the main threat again, while Simon The Seagull is worth a second look after his third-placed effort here last month.

Hat-trick seeking DOUBLE OBAN will be racing off a 10 lb higher mark in future following his decisive win in a conditional jockeys' race over C&D 9 days ago, and he is difficult to oppose racing unpenalised. Through The Ages chased him home that day and connections may choose to revert to more positive tactics which saw this horse to good effect when winning as a juvenile hurdler. Lightly-raced Moonshine Man shaped a bit better than his latest finishing position, having help force a strong pace.

Olly Murphy's DOUBLE OBAN will be hard to beat if holding his form as he hacked up off the same mark here nine days ago.

3	3 (3) (14/1 +22%) Howzak		14 14/1(+22%)																															(3) Howzak 14/1, Latest win over 6f here in November but out of sorts since, eighth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f) 28 days ago. Needs to bounce back. 6f winner here in autumn but soundly beaten all starts since and has plenty to prove.
1	2 1st (2) (7/1 +7%) Lady Nunthorpe		7 7/1(+7%)																															(2) Lady Nunthorpe 7/1, Off the mark at Southwell (5f) in November and dispelled a couple of lesser efforts when third of 6 in handicap back at that venue 5 weeks ago. Claims with a repeat. Claims on pick of Southwell form but tailed off here in November and isn't very consistent.
2	9 2nd (9) (66/1 -371%) Sixcor		66 66/1(-371%)																															(9) Sixcor 66/1, Won twice on turf last year and signed off with a very good third of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) in November. However, not sure to be in same form on this return from 106 days off. All wins within 17 days of a previous run so looks one to watch on reappearance.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 +33%) Doddie's Impact		4 4/1(+33%)																															(1) Doddie's Impact 4/1, Responded well to the application of cheekpieces when resuming winning ways over C&D in December. Hasn't been able to replicate that level in 2 subsequent runs but not discounted in an open-looking handicap. Not the most consistent but won over C&D in cheekpieces in December; below that since.
4	7 4th (7) (4/1 +43%) Show Me Show Me		4 4/1(+43%)																															(7) Show Me Show Me 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Respectable third of 7 in handicap at this course (6f, 16/1) 12 days ago, no extra final 1f. Return to the minimum trip in his favour on that evidence. Broke losing run over C&D last month and respectable efforts since; claims back at 5f.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/4 +25%) Sugar Baby		2.25 9/4(+25%)																															(6) Sugar Baby 9/4, 4/1, improved on recent efforts to win 6-runner handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, well positioned. Remains with handicapping scope on pick of last year's efforts and he's fancied be in the mix again. Notched second C&D win last week and rider's claim offsets the 3lb rise; interesting.
6th	8 6th (8) (11/1 -47%) Desert Master		11 11/1(-47%)																															(8) Desert Master 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. Seventh of 8 in handicap back at that venue (5f) 21 days ago, weakening final 1f. Needs to step up on recent efforts if he's to feature. Triple 5f Tapeta winner but below best on three of last four starts; one to watch.
7th	5 7th (5) (10/3 +44%) Beneficiary		3.333333 10/3(+44%)																															(5) Beneficiary 10/3, C&D winner. Three wins from 18 runs last year. 9/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 6 days ago, outpaced 2f out and keeping on. Not discounted in present groove. Did too much too soon over 6f on penultimate start but better over C&D last time; claims.
8th	4 8th (4) (16/1 -60%) Inanna		16 16/1(-60%)																															(4) Inanna 16/1, Twice successful at up to 6f last summer prior to good placed efforts on 2 of his last 3 starts in turf handicaps. Unseated leaving stalls on latest outing at Southwell in December and she's no forlorn hope returning from 72 days off. Yet to win on AW but has run well on synthetics and is a player in an ordinary event.

SUGAR BABY was able to take advantage of a sliding handicap mark when hitting the target over track and trip recently and with Alec Voikhansky's claim negating the 3lb rise incurred for that success, he should go very close again. A strong challenge could come from Show Me Show Me, who ought to benefit from a drop in trip having posted a creditable third under Ethan Tindall last time out. Doddie's Impact might not be far away either.

Having eased in the weights, SUGAR BABY found things much easier down in class when resuming winning ways over C&D 12 days ago. With his rider's claim off-setting his rise in the weights, he makes obvious appeal in his follow-up bid. Doddie's Impact and Lady Nunthorpe head up the dangers in an open-looking handicap.

This can go to SUGAR BABY, who returned to winning ways over C&D last week. He's taken to beat Show Me Show Me, who is back in trip

1	5 1st (5) (5/6 +39%) Saxonia		0.833333 5/6(+39%)																															(5) Saxonia 5/6, Back from 6 months off when very good third of 7 in handicap (5/2) over C&D 12 days ago. Entitled to build on that and holds strong claims. Best effort when close third to previous AW winner over C&D last time; leading claims.
2	1 2nd (1) (100/1 -100%) Live Aid		100 100/1(-100%)																															(1) Live Aid 100/1, 22/1, first run since leaving Emmet Mullins when last of 8 in novice at Southwell (8.1f) on Flat debut 14 days ago, slowly away. Hard to fancy. Ability in bumpers in Ireland but well beaten on Flat debut and best watched again.
3	3 3rd (3) (8/1 +43%) Ryans Hope		8 8/1(+43%)																															(3) Ryans Hope 8/1, Ivawood gelding. Brother to 11f winner Ivaquestion and half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 6f/7f winner Truffles and 1¼m-13f winner Estoppel. Wears blinkers. Worth monitoring in market on belated debut. Winners in pedigree - including on AW - and one to watch in the market on debut.
4	4 4th (4) (9/2 -35%) Absolutely Not		4.5 9/2(-35%)																															(4) Absolutely Not 9/2, Fifth of 9 in maiden (12/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut, having hopeless task from position. Off 12 months. May well do better. Ability on debut at Wolverhampton a year ago but off since; needs to raise game.
5th	7 5th (7) (10/1 -33%) Sovereign Class		10 10/1(-33%)																															(7) Sovereign Class 10/1, Twice-raced filly. 18/1, fourth of 5 in maiden over C&D 16 days ago. Improvement required. Similar level of modest form in two outings over C&D but remains capable of better.
6th	2 6th (2) (100/1 -25%) One More Bottle		100 100/1(-25%)																															(2) One More Bottle 100/1, Making GB/IRE Flat debut. Last of 11 in bumper at Catterick (15.7f, good, 100/1) 29 days ago. Likely best watched. Several Flat winners in pedigree but didn't show much in bumpers; Flat debut.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/2 -50%) My Mate Beattie		4.5 9/2(-50%)																															(6) My Mate Beattie 9/2, Fair filly. Disappointed at Southwell last time but had posted good second in Wolverhampton nursery (8.7f) previously and must enter calculations. Looking exposed but solid claims on pick of efforts & could put a below-par run behind her.

SAXONIA contested a number of warm novice events last season before posting a career-best performance on his return earlier this month. The son of Saxon Warrior ought to progress with that run under his belt and may not need much improvement to land what looks a moderate affair. My Mate Beattie sets the standard with an official rating of 71 but she's beginning to look a little vulnerable. Absolutely Not hasn't been seen since making his debut at Wolverhampton last February but she might prove best of the rest.

SAXONIA proved a different proposition when a close third over C&D earlier this month and remains low mileage. He can open his account. My Mate Beattie and Absolutely Not look the likeliest dangers.

Saxonia is a player but this can go to SOVEREIGN CLASS, who has shown ability and is capable of improvement

1	7 1st (7) (6/1 -9%) Paddy's Day		6 6/1(-9%)																															(7) Paddy's Day 6/1, 3-time C&D winner. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (11/4) at this C&D 16 days ago by ¾ length from Water of Leith. Very much one to consider. In good form with two recent C&D wins; up in weights/grade but should go well.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 +0%) Badri		4 4/1(+0%)																															(3) Badri 4/1, C&D winner. Won 9-runner handicap (11/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 21 days ago. Up 6 lb but remains well treated on past form so he's a player. Down in the weights and back to winning ways last time; up 6lb and down in trip but claims.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 +50%) The Caltonian		5 5/1(+50%)																															(1) The Caltonian 5/1, 5-time course winner. Latest win here in January. 10/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 34 days ago so needs to get back on track. Back to winning ways in January and better than bare form of last run; drop to 5f a worry.
4	9 4th (9) (11/2 +54%) Dark Kestrel		5.5 11/2(+54%)																															(9) Dark Kestrel 11/2, C&D winner. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap (11/2) at this course (6f) 5 days ago, slowly away. Can make his presence felt. Reliable sort, albeit race didn't pan out ideally over 6f last time; claims back at 5f.
5th	6 5th (6) (25/1 -127%) Elegant Erin		25 25/1(-127%)																															(6) Elegant Erin 25/1, Three wins from 13 runs last year. 14/1, won 9-runner handicap at this C&D 96 days ago. She's in the mix again after a break. C&D winner when last seen in November; up in weights and in grade; claims if there's pace.
6th	4 6th (4) (11/1 -100%) Master Of My Fate		11 11/1(-100%)																															(4) Master Of My Fate 11/1, Latest win at Southwell in January. 10/3, last of 7 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 6 days ago, but eased last 1f after being hampered. Needs considering. Has been in good form this winter and better than the bare form of last run; claims.
7th	8 7th (8) (11/2 +35%) Mon Na Slieve		5.5 11/2(+35%)																															(8) Mon Na Slieve 11/2, 8/1 and tongue strap/cheekpieces on for 1st time when a good fourth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 34 days ago. Weighted to go well. Not won since debut but down in weights and has been gelded; interesting.
8th	10 8th (10) (22/1 -83%) Water Of Leith		22 22/1(-83%)																															(10) Water Of Leith 22/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 12/1, creditable ¾-length second of 8 to Paddy's Day in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago. Not ruled out. Multiple winner who is closely matched with Paddy's Day on latest C&D run; claims.
9th	2 9th (2) (15/2 -25%) Spartan Arrow		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(2) Spartan Arrow 15/2, Respectable third of 17 in handicap at York (5f, good, 8/1) only run in 2024. Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Simon & Ed Crisford. Not taken lightly at these weights if fully tuned up. Dual turf winner who hasn't been out since last May; interesting on stable/Newcastle debut.
10th	5 10th (5) (10/1 +0%) Mondammej		10 10/1(+0%)																															(5) Mondammej 10/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 11/1, respectable third of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 18 days ago. Can give a good account. Four-time course winner at end of last year and should be suited by the return to this C&D.

The hat-trick seeking Paddy's Day has to be respected but the step up in grade is a slight concern. As a result, preference is for ELEGANT ERIN, who beat a useful rival over C&D when last seen in November and the eight-year-old is only 2lb higher here. Mon Na Slieve has dropped to a mark off which he could be competitive and Kevin Ryan's inmate may improve for a recent gelding operation, while Badri is another to note.

This is wide open but BADRI got back to winning ways at Southwell last time and remains handily weighted on past exploits so edges the vote. Paddy's Day heads the list of dangers on the back of his recent C&D victory, ahead of Mon Na Slieve, Mondammej and Dark Kestrel.

The choice is MON NA SLIEVE, who has slipped in the weights and has been gelded since his last run. He ran respectably last time.

1	7 1st (7) (3/1 +45%) Just Typical		3 3/1(+45%)																															(7) Just Typical 3/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. Raced too freely when fifth of 6 over C&D 26 days ago, beaten not briefly not clear run in final 1f. Capable of bouncing back. Won classified event on penultimate run but behind Concert Boy over C&D last time.
2	11 2nd (11) (22/1 -38%) Pop Favorite		22 22/1(-38%)																															(11) Pop Favorite 22/1, Six-time C&D winner, the latest in October. Recent efforts no more than respectable, though. Multiple C&D winner but form patchy since October and others make more appeal.
3	2 3rd (2) (9/4 +25%) Concert Boy		2.25 9/4(+25%)																															(2) Concert Boy 9/4, Two course wins this year, the first over this trip. Another good effort here when second over 7f last Saturday. Another bold show likely with Fentiman taking 7 lb off. Dual course winner this year who won't mind the return to 1m; should go well again.
4	10 4th (10) (12/1 0%) Martin's Brig		12 12/1(0%)																															(10) Martin's Brig 12/1, C&D winner. Creditable fifth of 10 in classified event over C&D 6 days ago, better placed than most. Dual C&D winner who has been contesting classified events of late; more needed.
5th	5 5th (5) (15/2 -15%) Balqaa		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(5) Balqaa 15/2, C&D winner off 2 lb higher in September. Below-form fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (1m) 13 days ago but too well handicapped to dismiss. Bit better than she's been able to show on last two starts and down to a handy mark.
6th	3 6th (3) (10/1 -67%) Odd Socks Havana		10 10/1(-67%)																															(3) Odd Socks Havana 10/1, Four-time C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (17/2) at this course (7f) 20 days ago. Enters the reckoning. Multiple winner here and shaped as though coming to hand last time; can't rule out.
7th	9 7th (9) (11/2 +0%) Urban Dandy		5.5 11/2(+0%)																															(9) Urban Dandy 11/2, Course winner. Twenty six runs since last win in 2023. 11/2, creditable second of 10 in classified event over C&D 6 days ago. Respected. Went close in classified event over C&D last time but more needed to win this.
8th	6 8th (6) (9/1 +36%) Wheres The Crumpet		9 9/1(+36%)																															(6) Wheres The Crumpet 9/1, Three wins from 18 runs last year, the latest over C&D in October. 12/1, below-form sixth of 12 in C&D handicap 73 days ago. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Both AW wins have been at this venue but hasn't been at best on last two starts.
9th	1 9th (1) (22/1 -238%) Likeashadow		22 22/1(-238%)																															(1) Likeashadow 22/1, C&D winner. Lost her way at the end of 2024 but well treated if a subsequent wind operation has had a positive effect (also tongue tied first time). Out of sorts of late but has had wind done, gets a tongue-tie and yard in fine form.
10th	8 10th (8) (50/1 -52%) On The Bubble		50 50/1(-52%)																															(8) On The Bubble 50/1, Won on the Flat and over hurdles for Ben Haslam in the first half of 2024 but has struggled under both codes since. Returns for a new yard after 98 days off. Flat/hurdle winner for Ben Haslam; out of sorts under both codes prior to falling latest.
11th	4 11th (4) (50/1 -52%) Pilgrim Of Culture		50 50/1(-52%)																															(4) Pilgrim Of Culture 50/1, Well beaten in 2 runs over longer trips since returning for new trainer Liam Bailey. It remains to be seen whether this significantly shorter trip makes any difference. Best effort over similar trip on handicap debut but below that level all runs since.

CONCERT BOY has been in top form in recent weeks and Katie Scott's gelding sets the standard having finished second off this mark over 7f here on Saturday. Odd Socks Havana showed signs of a revival when fourth at this venue a few weeks ago and he could prove to be the main threat, ahead of Just Typical and Urban Dandy.

CONCERT BOY can take full advantage of Warren Fentiman's 7 lb claim and land a third course win of 2025. Odd Socks Havana knows where the winning post is over this C&D and is next on the list ahead of Urban Dandy, who went close in a classified event here last week.

With Alan Brown in tremendous form, it's worth chancing LIKEASHADOW, who has had a wind op, can return to winning ways after a break.

1	3 1st (3) (13/2 -30%) Streak Lightning		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(3) Streak Lightning 13/2, 3-time C&D winner has been fairly consistent but could never land a blow when held up to finish 5 lengths sixth of 9 to Mereside Madness in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago. No surprise to see an improved performance. Held by a couple of these on most recent run over C&D and others appeal more.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/4 +0%) Mereside Madness		1.5 6/4(+0%)																															(2) Mereside Madness 6/4, 3-time C&D winner proved better than ever when returning from 3 months off, winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D 16 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Tasever, travelled smoothly through the race. Excellent claims of making it 4 C&D victories. Best effort and third C&D win when beating Tasever last time; claims up 4lb.
3	1 3rd (1) (15/8 +17%) Tasever		1.875 15/8(+17%)																															(1) Tasever 15/8, 4-time course winner (including twice last month) ran as well as ever when chasing home Mereside Madness 16 days ago. Better off at the weights and must be respected racing off the same mark as his latest conqueror. Four course wins since November and good run behind Mereside Madness here last time.
4	5 4th (5) (14/1 +0%) Bobby Joe Leg		14 14/1(+0%)																															(5) Bobby Joe Leg 14/1, 7-time C&D winner produced a rare below-par effort 9¼ lengths eighth of 9 to Mereside Madness in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago, having been slowly away. Others preferred on the back of that. Multiple course winner but long way behind a few of these over C&D last time.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 -82%) Havana Prince		10 10/1(-82%)																															(4) Havana Prince 10/1, Course winner was in rude health on the Flat last summer, finishing campaign with his third victory in 4 starts when winning 14-runner handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm) in July. Makes reappearance following 7 months off and market should offer a guide as to what's expected. 6f winner at this venue who won three of last four turf starts but not seen since July.
6th	6 6th (6) (11/1 +45%) Bowman		11 11/1(+45%)																															(6) Bowman 11/1, Ran poorly on first outing since leaving Danny Brooke, dwelt and always behind when last of 9 in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago. Looks to be stable second string. Turf winner last April but hasn't been at best of late and makes little appeal.

MERESIDE MADNESS accounted for Tasever (second) when winning over C&D a couple of weeks ago and four-year-old could make it a double. The aforementioned Tasever has to be of interest, although a 2lb swing in the weights may not be enough to reverse the form. The rest all have questions to answer right now, but Havana Prince has the ability to run well if ready to go after a 214-day break.

Four of these contested the race in which MERESIDE MADNESS notched his third C&D victory earlier this month, and he travelled powerfully through the race in the style of a horse who might be capable of winning again. Tasever chased him home that day and may have to settle for second despite a pull at the weights, while Streak Lightning is better than he showed on that occasion.

This could be another C&D win for MERESIDE MADNESS, who turned in his best effort last time and holds several of these.

1	3 1st (3) (9/2 +68%) Kats Bob		4.5 9/2(+68%)																															(3) Kats Bob 9/2, C&D winner. Although slightly below-par when eighth of 12 in handicap (final start for Iain Jardine) over C&D 50 days ago, he could be revitalised by a switch of stables. Interesting contender could outrun his odds. Multiple winner for Iain Jardine; looks the type who could benefit from change of scenery.
2	4 2nd (4) (3/1 +0%) Just Ten High		3 3/1(+0%)																															(4) Just Ten High 3/1, In fine form, two wins from last 3 starts including career best when taking 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 17 days ago, stronger at the finish having settled early. One for the shortlist. Progressive sort who turned in best effort at Wolverhampton last time; claims up 3lb.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 -33%) Tomorrow Day		4 4/1(-33%)																															(1) Tomorrow Day 4/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Respectable second of 7 in handicap (9/4) at this C&D 12 days ago and although entitled to run well again, the handicapper might just have his measure at present. Multiple course winner who ran well over this C&D last time; likely to go well again.
4	5 4th (5) (11/2 -22%) Captain Vallo		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(5) Captain Vallo 11/2, 3-time C&D winner ideally wants to be held up off a sound gallop. Unlucky fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 6 days ago, having been denied a clear run. Capable of running a big race from this mark if things drop right. Triple C&D winner who is better than the bare facts of his last run; should go well.
5th	7 5th (7) (9/1 +44%) Mayo County		9 9/1(+44%)																															(7) Mayo County 9/1, Didn't look the most straightforward ride when fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft, 8/1) last autumn. Off 162 days and others have stronger claims. Well beaten on first run on soft in September but off since and needs to raise game.
6th	2 6th (2) (15/2 -50%) Bellagio Man		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(2) Bellagio Man 15/2, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Creditable second of 6 in handicap at this C&D (4/1) 16 days ago, although again not helping himself with slow start. Slow-starter who broke losing run recently & ran well last time; needs things to go right.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 -25%) Hurstwood		10 10/1(-25%)																															(8) Hurstwood 10/1, C&D winner wasn't seen to best effect when fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago, having been denied a clear passage. Went through the race as though he is capable of going close off this mark. Respected with promising claimer now in the saddle. Ordinary strike-rate on AW but creditable runs on last two starts and good claimer up.
8th	9 8th (9) (16/1 -14%) Doon The Glen		16 16/1(-14%)																															(9) Doon The Glen 16/1, Remains a maiden after 21 runs and although he didn't enjoy the clearest passage when fifth of 10 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f, 14/1) 6 days ago, others have stronger claims on recent evidence. Not the most consistent and yet to win a race; bit better than last run but best watched.

JUST TEN HIGH did it well when scoring at Wolverhampton last time and a 3lb rise for that success may not be enough to prevent him from making it three wins in his last four starts. Runner-up over C&D on his most recent start, Bellagio Man is a key player, as well as Tomorrow Day, who has not been outside the first three on each of his last four outings over track and trip.

HURSTWOOD was a close second at this venue on his penultimate run and would have gone closer with a clear passage when fifth here earlier this month. Now 3 lb lower than his last winning mark, he may be able to get his head in front with a promising claimer in the saddle. Just Ten High is in fine form and can hit the frame for the fourth race in a row, while Captain Vallo remains of interest off his current mark but needs a good gallop to be seen to best effect. Kats Bob may be a live outsider.

Kat's Bob is a player for his new team but the progressive JUST TEN HIGH (nap), who ran his best race last time, is preferred.

1	7 1st (7) (7/2 +13%) Conquest Of Power		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(7) Conquest Of Power 7/2, Confirmed promise of previous run when landing 8-runner minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 4 days ago, readily. 5 lb penalty to carry now but must be taken seriously. Won over 1m on Sunday; penalty less of a worry than the drop back to sprinting.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 +13%) King's Crown		7 7/1(+13%)																															(5) King's Crown 7/1, Ended long losing run at Southwell (6.1f) last month and back to that sort of form when creditable third of 11 in handicap over C&D (8/1) 6 days ago. Respected. Broke losing run in January and third over C&D last time but not the most reliable.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/8 -10%) Rebecca's Girl		1.375 11/8(-10%)																															(2) Rebecca's Girl 11/8, Back to winning ways over C&D earlier this month and followed up in 9-runner handicap (15/8) at this course (7.1f) 5 days ago, digging deep. Can race off same mark and looks the one to beat. In good form and 4lb ahead of mark; likely to give a good account.
4	8 4th (8) (16/1 -100%) Fircombe Hall		16 16/1(-100%)																															(8) Fircombe Hall 16/1, 6-time C&D winner. Three wins from 21 runs last year. Thirteen runs since last win in 2024. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap over C&D (7/2) 19 days ago. Becoming well treated. Plenty of chances since last win and usually leaves the impression he's saving a bit.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/1 -29%) Asadjumeirah		9 9/1(-29%)																															(6) Asadjumeirah 9/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in February. Bit below form fourth of 10 in minor event (13/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 6 days ago. Others more persuasive. Dual C&D winner this year but below best last time; return to this track should suit.
6th	3 6th (3) (7/1 +30%) Profit Street		7 7/1(+30%)																															(3) Profit Street 7/1, Course winner. Seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D (13/2) 6 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Dual winner at this course but, although mainly consistent, wasn't at best last time.
7th	4 7th (4) (33/1 -136%) Piloto Pardo		33 33/1(-136%)																															(4) Piloto Pardo 33/1, 5¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Rebecca's Girl in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 12 days ago. Others look better treated. 7f AW winner for Richard Hannon but regressive since; held by Rebecca's Girl on last run.

REBECCA'S GIRL is in cracking form at present and dropping back in trip should not inconvenience as she looks to complete the hat-trick after success over 7f here last Saturday. Gary Rutherford's mare is 4lb well in and can see off Asadjumeirah, who was a comfortable winner over C&D on his penultimate start. Not beaten far over track and trip last time, and a capable sort on his day, King's Crown can have a say in proceedings as well.

REBECCA'S GIRL arrives at the top of her game and carries no penalty for her latest success. She can complete the hat-trick. Conquest of Power and King's Crown may give her most to think about.

The one who appeals most is the in-form REBECCA'S GIRL, who gets no penalty for winning over 7f here last time. She's effective at 6f.

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.
