4	4 (4) (40/1 -186%) Saffredi		40 40/1(-186%)																															(4) Saffredi 40/1, Once-raced gelding. 12/1, sixth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (7f) on debut. Off 167 days. Down in trip. Should improve. Drops back to 5f and he seemed to stay the 7f okay on last season's AW debut.
1	3 1st (3) (13/8 +71%) Air Force One		1.625 13/8(+71%)																															(3) Air Force One 13/8, Promising type. Fourth of 8 in maiden at Sandown (5f, good to soft, 12/1). Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving David O'Meara. Good-looking sort and he may well do better this term. Visor on 1st time. Two runs at top tracks in Britain; now visored and could be a sharp improver.
2	11 2nd (11) (3/1 +0%) Ojw Legacy		3 3/1(+0%)																															(11) Ojw Legacy 3/1, Thrice-raced filly who improved on her exploits as a juvenile when second of 8 in maiden (17/2) at Dundalk (6f) 24 days ago. Drop to the minimum trip shouldn't inconvenience her and respected with possibility of more to come. Has got closer in each of her runs and went down by only a neck at Dundalk last month.
3	6 3rd (6) (6/1 -50%) Back Down Under		6 6/1(-50%)																															(6) Back Down Under 6/1, Fair filly who ran right up to best when runner-up on nursery debut at Naas (6f, soft) in October. Below best switched to AW at Dundalk on final start in December but pick of her form gives her good claims on return. Consistent in her eight starts and she brings some of the best form to the table.
4	7 4th (7) (25/1 -79%) Beatrix Power		25 25/1(-79%)																															(7) Beatrix Power 25/1, Slade Power filly. Sister to 5f/6f winner Collective Power. Dam 6f winner. Yard know this family very well and she's one to monitor in the betting on debut for clues. Sister to 5f/6f winner Collective Power (RPR 91); lack of experience may find her out.
5th	5 5th (5) (22/1 -120%) Verified		22 22/1(-120%)																															(5) Verified 22/1, Lightly-raced gelding. 16/1, eighth of 9 in minor event at the Curragh (5f, heavy) 17 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Handicaps may be more his bag. Runner-up over 6f at Cork in September (good) but a bit to prove on balance.
6th	9 6th (9) (13/2 +35%) Emerald Harmony		6.5 13/2(+35%)																															(9) Emerald Harmony 13/2, Once-raced filly. 25/1, sixth of 18 in maiden at Cork (5f, heavy) on debut 38 days ago, not knocked about. Yard having good spell. Open to progress. Never seen with a chance when sixth of 18 at Cork (5f, heavy) but she should improve.
7th	10 7th (10) (25/1 +0%) Lady Daar		25 25/1(+0%)																															(10) Lady Daar 25/1, 15,000 gns foal, Eqtidaar filly. Dam unraced out of smart winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner) Muteela. 15,000gns foal; first foal; unraced dam closely related to 6f AW 2yo winner Mutazawwed.
8th	15 8th (15) (25/1 +24%) Woohoo		25 25/1(+24%)																															(15) Woohoo 25/1, Twice-raced filly. 14/1 and blinkered for 1st time, seventh of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (5f) in December. Passed over back from 5 months off. Beaten in the region of 8l in a pair of 5f maidens on the AW; that's fairly low-level form.
9th	2 9th (2) (100/1 -300%) Short Change		100 100/1(-300%)																															(2) Short Change 100/1, Once-raced gelding. Modest form when seventh of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (7f, 12/1) on debut 74 days ago. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving J. J. Feane. Posted an RPR of 59 when well held over 7f on the AW in February.
10th	14 10th (14) (150/1 -127%) Weston Grey		150 150/1(-127%)																															(14) Weston Grey 150/1, Twice-raced filly. Seventh of 14 in maiden (150/1) at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Likely type for low-grade handicaps. Beaten 15l in both runs (1m/6f) and now goes in cheekpieces; handicaps beckon.
11th	8 11th (8) (150/1 -50%) Behomebyhalfpast		150 150/1(-50%)																															(8) Behomebyhalfpast 150/1, Highland Reel filly. Last of 8 in minor event (100/1) at Dundalk (7f) on debut 88 days ago. Down in trip. 100-1 and finished completely tailed off over 7f at Dundalk three months ago.
12th	12 12th (12) (11/1 -10%) Sacred Melody		11 11/1(-10%)																															(12) Sacred Melody 11/1, Once-raced filly. Seventh of 13 in maiden at Cork (5f, soft, 28/1) on debut. Off 7 months. Beaten about 6l in a soft-ground maiden at Cork that contained some useful horses.
13th	13 13th (13) (50/1 -213%) Soar Beyond		50 50/1(-213%)																															(13) Soar Beyond 50/1, Once-raced filly. Ninth of 11 in maiden at Naas (5.9f, good, 28/1) on debut. Off 8 months. In top hands but beat only two home at Naas in August (6f, good; 28-1).
14th	1 14th (1) (40/1 +0%) Purrrfect Timing		40 40/1(+0%)																															(1) Purrrfect Timing 40/1, Jungle Cat gelding. Half-brother to 5f winners Gift In Time and Step Back In Time. Dam unraced. Cheekpieces on for debut but he's probably best watched. Half-brother to 5f winners Gift In Time (RPR 82) and Step Back in Time (64).

EMERALD HARMONY is a potential improver from her debut sixth at Cork. She kept on well in the final furlong and could appreciate this ground as it won't be as testing. Back Down Under flopped when last seen in Dundalk but, prior to that, was placed five times on turf, including in the valuable Birdcatcher at Naas. Ojw Legacy has been placed on all three starts to date so is sure to be popular. She got closer to the breakthrough on her last outing in Dundalk, when beaten by a neck. Beatrix Power is a sister to a seven-time winner so is worth a market check on debut.

OJW LEGACY improved on the form she showed as a juvenile when runner-up in a Dundalk maiden (6f) 24 days ago and with the drop to the minimum trip expected to hold no fears, she's of interest with the possibility of more to come. Air Force One is another of interest starting out for his new stable with Back Down Under and Emerald Harmony others to note.

It could pay to take a chance on AIR FORCE ONE who ran in maidens at top tracks for David O'Meara.

11th	6 11th (6) (40/1 -150%) Alex Belardo		40 40/1(-150%)																															(6) Alex Belardo 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 66/1, fourth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (8f). Off 95 days. Significantly down in trip. Makes handicap debut. Caught the eye in first of three AW maidens when beaten less than 4l over 7f; handicap bow.

Ken Condon saddled his first winner of the season in Naas last week and has prospects with VERACIDAD. This filly was placed three times off higher marks last season and is very much at home on rain-softened ground. Velvet Skies is running consistently well, with three runner-up berths in a row. His latest effort came in a higher grade and Wesley Joyce eases his welter burden by 5lb, so the pair should be right on the premises. Artful Approach can build upon his fourth over C&D last month. It was quite a drop in trip for him, but he took to sprinting as he put in plenty of good late work in that big field.

LAYOFTHELAND left previous efforts well behind when a close fourth in a big field at the Curragh on handicap bow last month so gets the vote. Velvet Skies and Artful Approach head the dangers.

On the back of a good start in handicap company when fourth of 21 against older rivals over C&D, ARTFUL APPROACH (nap) gets the vote

1	9 1st (9) (3/1 +60%) King Otis		3 3/1(+60%)																															(9) King Otis 3/1, Landed a gamble starting out for this yard at Plumpton (2m) in October. Was on the retreat when falling at the last at Fontwell 3 weeks ago but still merits respect in this company despite having to race from out of the weights. Made all at Pumpton in October, but has been off 133 days and is 9lb wrong; tongue-tie on.
2	3 2nd (3) (10/1 +17%) Nevendon		10 10/1(+17%)																															(3) Nevendon 10/1, A fair 2m winner at his best but lost his form in the autumn and no sign of an upturn in his fortunes on return to action at Wincanton 16 days ago. 1-28 and pulled up on last month's Wincanton return; needs to step up from that.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 -82%) Tara Iti		5 5/1(-82%)																															(6) Tara Iti 5/1, Drops into seller after pulling up at Fontwell last month (reported to have bled). Like a number in this line-up he has a bit to prove but he is back on a good mark if running close to his best. 5lb below last winning mark and a player with the ground likely to be in his favour.
4	1 4th (1) (11/2 -57%) L'impertinent		5.5 11/2(-57%)																															(1) L'impertinent 11/2, Fairly useful hurdle/chase winner for Enda Bolger in 2022. Well-held fourth on his completed start in handicap chases since returning from a long absence for new yard. Is quite a classy sort for this level so a market move for him back over hurdles would be interesting. Winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland; interesting back over hurdles in this modest company.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/4 +17%) Caldwell		2.75 11/4(+17%)																															(5) Caldwell 11/4, Two AW Flat wins for Ivan Furtado this winter. Those efforts suggest he has the ability to do some damage from his current hurdle mark but he's pulled up on 4 of his last 5 attempts over hurdles. First run for Jennie Candlish. Dual AW winner in the winter; last few efforts over hurdles leave him with plenty to prove.
6th	10 6th (10) (13/2 +87%) Uncle Arthur		6.5 13/2(+87%)																															(10) Uncle Arthur 13/2, Opened his hurdles account for Fergal O'Brien in December but has struggled for this stable since. Form has regressed since joining this yard; plenty to find from 13lb out of the weights.
7th	2 7th (2) (12/1 -50%) Man Again		12 12/1(-50%)																															(2) Man Again 12/1, Winning hurdler/chaser in France but pulled up in 3 handicap chases this spring for new yard. Blinkered first time now back hurdling with Harry Cobden doing the steering. Worth a second look in the betting. Pulled up in three starts over fences for yard; only of interest if backed; blinkers on.
8th	8 8th (8) (80/1 +20%) Phoebe's Charm		80 80/1(+20%)																															(8) Phoebe's Charm 80/1, Tailed off in maiden/handicap hurdles in Ireland and hasn't beaten a rival in 2 handicap hurdles for new yard this spring. Hasn't finished withing 25l of the winner in six starts over hurdles; 8lb wrong; hood on.
4	4 |PU| (4) (125/1 -942%) Gold In Doha		125 125/1(-942%)																															(4) Gold In Doha 125/1, Runner-up in a couple of novices for Harry Fry but was sold cheaply after and well beaten both starts for current yard last summer (distant third in seller first occasion). First outing for 9 months. Six starts have been well spaced out; back from another nine months off; enough to prove.

State Of Bliss was well held in fourth in a class 4 event at Huntingdon last time, but he is now 2lb lower and will appreciate this drop in grade. However, the vote goes to L'IMPERTINENT, who has failed to fire since joining the Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero stable, but he switches to hurdles and takes a sizeable drop in grade. The son of Fame And Glory could prove too good for these, while Phoebe's Charm rates next best.

KING OTIS could be worth chancing dropped into a seller. L'Impertinent is a classy sort for this level and could bounce back. Tara Iti is another to note.

Topweight L'IMPERTINENT looks particularly interesting. A winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland, he takes on much easier company here.

1	2 1st (2) (5/1 -82%) Magical Escape		5 5/1(-82%)																															(2) Magical Escape 5/1, Bounced back from a couple of lesser runs when opening his hurdle account at Chepstow (3m, soft) on Easter Monday, seeing off the reopposing Idefix De Ciergues by 9½ lengths. Has to give 7 lb to that one this time. Far too good for Idefix De Ciergues when winning Chepstow maiden last month; big player.
2	3 2nd (3) (16/5 -7%) Patriotik		3.2 16/5(-7%)																															(3) Patriotik 16/5, Course winner in March and similar form when placed over 2m here last month. The step up in trip promises to see him in a better light. Much respected despite the penalty. 2m4f course winner in March and twice in the frame behind useful rivals here last month.
3	14 3rd (14) (150/1 -355%) Ultra Beat		150 150/1(-355%)																															(14) Ultra Beat 150/1, Third in an Irish point and a bumper but hard to be too encouraged by his 3 attempts over hurdles. Showed promise on only one of three hurdling starts last season; has a lot to find.
4	7 4th (7) (10/3 +49%) Idefix De Ciergues		3.333333 10/3(+49%)																															(7) Idefix De Ciergues 10/3, Fair form over hurdles, placing again when 9½ lengths second of 6 to Magical Escape in 3m Chepstow maiden (soft) 36 days ago. Likely to figure but probably vulnerable to an improver. Placed on five of his six hurdling starts; probably won't be far away.
5th	6 5th (6) (250/1 -150%) Gouazec		250 250/1(-150%)																															(6) Gouazec 250/1, More one for handicaps after this judged on his 2 runs to date. Triple point winner in 2023 but well beaten in two maiden hurdles this year.
6th	10 6th (10) (3/1 +0%) Old Time Chaser		3 3/1(+0%)																															(10) Old Time Chaser 3/1, Third sole start in Irish points in 2022 and he made a promising return when fourth of 13 in novice hurdle at Ascot (19f, good) in March. Can be expected to improve for top stable. One to consider. Just a respectable fourth at Ascot on rules debut but ought to build on that performance.
7th	5 7th (5) (8/1 +33%) Global Focus		8 8/1(+33%)																															(5) Global Focus 8/1, £60,000 buy after winning an Irish point in February 2022). It's taken a long time to get him to the track but he's still one to note in the betting. Bought for £60,000 soon after winning Irish point debut in 2022; makes delayed rules debut.
8th	8 8th (8) (100/1 -203%) Milan Ac		100 100/1(-203%)																															(8) Milan Ac 100/1, £60,000 recruit from the Irish pointing field but he achieved little when beaten 25 lengths in a match race on his Exeter hurdle debut. Idefix de Ciergues the yard first string unless the betting strongly hints otherwise. Well held when second in a match race on rules debut in February.
9th	9 9th (9) (66/1 -230%) Mythe Bridge		66 66/1(-230%)																															(9) Mythe Bridge 66/1, Promise to draw from both hurdles starts but looks more one for the longer term. Respectable fourth in Exeter maiden in March but needs another big step forward here.
1	1 |F| (1) (5/1 -11%) Carrigmoorna Rowan		5 5/1(-11%)																															(1) Carrigmoorna Rowan 5/1, Irish point winner who struck at fourth time of asking over hurdles in 20.5f Market Rasen maiden last month. Should be competitive under the penalty. Delivered on earlier promise when winning Market Rasen maiden last month; high on the list.
10th	16 10th (16) (250/1 -150%) Sullivan Bay		250 250/1(-150%)																															(16) Sullivan Bay 250/1, Pulled up in a juvenile hurdle at the end of 2023. Did win on AW Flat for Gary Brown in January but well held since joining this yard, including back hurdling last month. Won low-grade AW handicap in January but a well-beaten outsider on both hurdling attempts.
11th	13 11th (13) (150/1 -200%) Top Kap		150 150/1(-200%)																															(13) Top Kap 150/1, Modest form only start in bumpers for Tom Lacey and more one for handicaps based on his 2 hurdle runs for Alan King. With good stable but displayed only minor promise when sixth on first two hurdling starts.
12th	11 12th (11) (150/1 -200%) Politicianspromise		150 150/1(-200%)																															(11) Politicianspromise 150/1, Well held in a maiden hurdle in Ireland in 2021. Did win a point last spring but well beaten in that sphere recently. Has joined a capable stable but can still only watch this time. Well beaten in Irish maiden hurdle on debut in 2021 and just 1-10 in points since.
15	15 |PU| (15) (300/1 -140%) Countess Vicky		300 300/1(-140%)																															(15) Countess Vicky 300/1, No form in 3 hurdles this year. Made very inauspicious start to hurdling career last season (three runs).

Last-time-out winners Carrigmoorna Rowan and Magical Escape are obvious contenders despite picking up penalties, with the latter preferred of that pair given he stayed on in a pleasing manner when scoring at Chepstow last month. However, PATRIOTIK, who sets the standard on the official ratings, could be the way to go on this occasion. The selection had plenty in hand when winning over 2m4f at this venue in March and is taken to flourish further with the step up in trip a likely source of improvement.

There should be more to come from PATRIOTIK now tackling a longer trip so he gets the vote ahead of Nicky Henderson's Old Time Chaser, who showed promise on his hurdle debut at a time when his stable was under a bit of a cloud. Idefix de Ciergues can place yet again.

2m4f course winner PATRIOTIK ran well in defeat behind useful opposition in two 2m novices here last month and now tries a new trip.

Below form thirteenth of 27 in handicap (10/1) at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 16 days ago, unable to sustain effort. On a fair mark on pick of form.

3	3 3rd (3) (22/1 -144%) Havana Notion		22 22/1(-144%)																															(3) Havana Notion 22/1, Latest win at Dundalk in January. Ninth of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Dundalk (5f) 46 days ago. Held since AW win in January and fairly exposed at this stage albeit less so on turf.
4	8 4th (8) (3/1 +33%) My Girl Sioux		3 3/1(+33%)																															(8) My Girl Sioux 3/1, Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Sligo (5.7f, good to soft, 17/2) 2 days ago, left with lot to do. Not taken lightly. Longstanding maiden was in good form at Dundalk over the winter; fifth at Sligo on Sunday.
5th	12 5th (12) (40/1 -100%) Coco Hill		40 40/1(-100%)																															(12) Coco Hill 40/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Nineteenth of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy, 50/1) 50 days ago. Placed in 5f contests at Tipperary last summer but yet to recapture form for current yard.
6th	11 6th (11) (9/1 -13%) Stanhope		9 9/1(-13%)																															(11) Stanhope 9/1, C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 22/1, bit below form eighth of 21 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 10 days ago, not much room. Merits consideration. Three-time course winner was eighth of 21, keeping on late, over C&D last month.
7th	10 7th (10) (9/2 -13%) Un Bacio Ancora		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(10) Un Bacio Ancora 9/2, One win from 37 Flat runs. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 18/1, third of 27 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 16 days ago. Cracking run at the Curragh last time when third of 27 over 6f, placed form at this trip.
8th	4 8th (4) (7/2 +42%) Step Back In Time		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(4) Step Back In Time 7/2, C&D winner. 10/1, respectable sixth of 21 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 10 days ago. Player. C&D winner was sixth of 21 here on her return (hampered by loose horse) and should go well.
9th	7 9th (7) (18/1 -29%) Jackie Brown		18 18/1(-29%)																															(7) Jackie Brown 18/1, Seventeenth of 20 in handicap (80/1) at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 50 days ago. Dropped to a handy mark. Well held since winning over 6f on good ground at Fairyhouse last summer.
10th	14 10th (14) (40/1 +0%) Kuwait Direction		40 40/1(+0%)																															(14) Kuwait Direction 40/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Fourteenth of 21 in handicap (100/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 10 days ago. Three-time winner well held on AW lately and when mid-division over C&D last time.

UN BACIO ANCORA ran a stormer on her return to turf in the Curragh last month. She was just pipped in third, by a short head and a neck, in that massive field after attracting support. The horse behind her in seventh came out and won in this grade at Sligo last Sunday. Step Back In Time has a C&D victory to her name and ran well for a long way when sixth on her seasonal reappearance here last month. My Girl Sioux is a long-standing maiden but is capable of picking up a cheque, while Stanhope competes off a very lowly mark with Keithen Kennedy's claim factored in, and he does love Navan.

NOUVEL ESPOIR produced her best effort when runner-up in a C&D maiden in October and is on a fair mark on that form, so she could be the answer with a reappearance run under her belt. Step Back In Time shaped well fifth on her return here 10 days ago and is next best ahead of My Girl Sioux and Un Bacio Ancora.

Although he didn't shine on h'cap debut at the Curragh, NOUVEL ESPOIR still appeals as being well treated on the pick of his maiden form

1	6 1st (6) (10/11 -72%) Seeyouinmydreams		0.909091 10/11(-72%)																															(6) Seeyouinmydreams 10/11, Bumper winner who shaped as if amiss fitted with a tongue strap when pulled up in a novice hurdle at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) on debut in this sphere in November. Has had a breathing operation and clearly thought capable of better. Hood goes on. Has twice pulled too hard since winning bumper debut; returns from wind surgery; hood on.
2	4 2nd (4) (50/1 -52%) Little Talks		50 50/1(-52%)																															(4) Little Talks 50/1, Modest hurdler who hit the frame in a brace of 3m handicaps during the winter. Held back by a bad mistake at Huntingdon at the start of last month but took little interest at Taunton 13 days ago. Pulled up in last two starts; would be receiving weight from a few of these in a handicap.
3	5 3rd (5) (16/1 -60%) Oneforthefairgreen		16 16/1(-60%)																															(5) Oneforthefairgreen 16/1, Showed fair form on 2 of her 4 starts in bumpers in Ireland but has been pulled up both starts over hurdles 4 months apart. Pulled up in both starts over hurdles, albeit in much more exalted company than this.
4	2 4th (2) (15/2 +17%) Jackeline		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(2) Jackeline 15/2, Well beaten in 2 bumpers but showed a bit when fourth on Lingfield hurdle debut in December. In process of running well when falling 3 out at Exeter 7 weeks later and bounced back from a lesser effort when third at Chepstow last time, best work finish. Not taken lightly up in trip. Third at Chepstow last time; looked ready for a step up in trip there; respected.
5th	7 5th (7) (16/1 +20%) Tique		16 16/1(+20%)																															(7) Tique 16/1, Bumper winner at the fourth attempt at Bangor in May but has shown just modest form at best in 6 hurdle outings, tending to make mistakes. Has shown ability over hurdles, but was behind a couple of these at the end of last year.
3	3 |F| (3) (4/1 +0%) La Gomera		4 4/1(+0%)																															(3) La Gomera 4/1, Point winner who finished runner-up for the second time over hurdles in a Hereford maiden in November. Handed a stiff-looking mark and comfortably held on her handicap debut there last time but this looks more suitable. Runner-up in both starts on good ground; player if ready to go after four months off.
9	9 |PU| (9) (6/1 +25%) Mountain Lake		6 6/1(+25%)																															(9) Mountain Lake 6/1, Fair maiden at her best on Flat for Saeed bin Suroor. Showed a bit tried hurdling after 6 months off when a well-held third of 14 at Hereford and stepped forward a little on that at Market Rasen latest. Up in trip. Shaped as though this sort of trip might suit in both starts over hurdles; solid claims.
1	1 |PU| (1) (200/1 -203%) Freestyle		200 200/1(-203%)																															(1) Freestyle 200/1, Showed fair form when second in a French claiming hurdle in 2021/22 but was well held on his stable debut in a 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap on the Flat in February. Last in an AW Flat handicap after a mammoth absence; has a bit to prove; cheekpieces on.

Point-to-point winner SEEYOUINMYDREAMS makes only her second start over the smaller obstacles after running too bad to be true when pulled up at Newbury in November. Paul Nicholls' six-year-old has undergone wind surgery since and, provided she can settle better, she looks the one to beat. La Gomera was well beaten in handicap company at Hereford in January, but she has to be considered back in a maiden, while Mountain Lake is another to watch out for.

JACKELINE has her limitations as a hurdler, but she shaped well with a view to stepping up in distance at Chepstow last time, so gets the nod. Seeyouinmydreams shaped as if amiss when pulled up on her hurdling debut back in November and should be capable of much better based on her bumper form, while La Gomera and Mountain Lake are others in the mix.

This can go to JACKELINE who gave the impression a step up in trip would suit when third at Chepstow last time.

1	8 1st (8) (10/11 +39%) Jasmin De Grugy		0.909091 10/11(+39%)																															(8) Jasmin De Grugy 10/11, No show in maiden/novice company but took a big step forward when pulling well clear of the rest with the fast-improving winner Plaisir Des Flos (successful twice again since) at Wincanton (19.8f, heavy) last time. Remains on a potentially very handy mark despite going up 8 lb. Went close on handicap debut (front pair well clear) and might still be well treated.
2	5 2nd (5) (10/1 +44%) Crossbeau		10 10/1(+44%)																															(5) Crossbeau 10/1, Much improved since sent handicapping and had race in the bag when unseating rider late at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) in January. Hasn't managed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts, though, and others make more appeal. Unlucky not to win off this mark in January but two lesser efforts have followed.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/1 -10%) Everyonesacritic		11 11/1(-10%)																															(6) Everyonesacritic 11/1, Left the form of his 3 qualifying runs well behind when making a successful handicap debut with cheekpieces added at Musselburgh (19.8f, soft) in February. However, he has failed to reproduce that form in 2 subsequent starts and others make more appeal for win purposes. Won on handicap debut in February; beaten about 14l when fourth twice since; more needed.
4	3 4th (3) (16/5 +4%) Shillanavogy		3.2 16/5(+4%)																															(3) Shillanavogy 16/5, Failed to measure up to market expectations on handicap debut at Wetherby in January but got it together following a break/wind op when scoring in good style at Hereford (19.7f, soft) last month. 8 lb rise tolerable and he probably has more to offer. Won comfortably at Hereford last month (first run after wind op) and can improve again.
5th	11 5th (11) (22/1 -10%) Richardson		22 22/1(-10%)																															(11) Richardson 22/1, Sole success to date was gained back in 2020 but he has finished in the money on several occasions since, including when third of 7 at Chepstow (19.4f, soft) back from a break in March. Place possibilities. In the frame on all four outings last season but would appeal more on slow ground.
6th	4 6th (4) (10/1 +50%) Senor Diaz		10 10/1(+50%)																															(4) Senor Diaz 10/1, Stuck to his task when runner-up at Chepstow (2m, heavy) in January and, though well beaten next time, he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 10 upped to this trip on handicap debut at Plumpton. Now 5 lb lower and he's a live each-way candidate. Just a respectable fourth on handicap debut but subsequent 5lb drop helps.
1	1 |PU| (1) (14/1 -75%) Twyford's Diamond		14 14/1(-75%)																															(1) Twyford's Diamond 14/1, Showed little in a brace of bumpers but better signs over hurdles, finding just one too good in a mares' novice at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) last time. On what appeals as a fair mark for this handicap debut but improvement is certainly needed. 0-5 over hurdles but ran well in defeat in Ludlow novice last month; handicap debut today.
7	7 |PU| (7) (50/1 +0%) Go On Ya Goodthing		50 50/1(+0%)																															(7) Go On Ya Goodthing 50/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Hereford (21.7f, good to soft) when last seen in November. Had shown ability prior to that but not enough to suggest that he'll be good enough to take this. Absent since pulled up on handicap debut in November; not the obvious answer.
9	9 |PU| (9) (66/1 +0%) Beau Haze		66 66/1(+0%)																															(9) Beau Haze 66/1, Dual winner here in 2021 but this veteran hasn't cut much ice in 3 starts since returning from a lengthy absence. Four-time winner over hurdles; yet to find form since returning from long layoff in March.

A wind operation seemed to have revitalised SHILLANAVOGY when he won at Hereford in April and the six-year-old can kick on from competitive mark on just his third start in a handicap. Twyford's Diamond doesn't have much to find to win a race of this nature and can give the selection the most to think about if she handles the step back up in trip. Everyonesacritic and Crossbeau are others fancied to be on the premises in this company.

The one who stands out is the unexposed JASMIN DE GRUGY, who was narrowly outpointed by a rapid improver on his handicap bow at Wincanton where he pulled miles clear of the rest. An 8 lb rise is easy to swallow both on account of the strength of that Wincanton form (the winner has gone in twice again since) and the potential he possesses. Shillanavogy opened his account on his first run following a wind op at Hereford and he rates the main danger ahead of Senor Diaz and Richardson.

One of two to sprint a long way clear of the others when going close on his handicap debut at Wincanton, JASMIN DE GRUGY gets the nod.

1	8 1st (8) (2/1 -6%) Bay Of Sanibel		2 2/1(-6%)																															(8) Bay Of Sanibel 2/1, Promising sort. C&D winner. 7/2, second of 19 in handicap at this course (13f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. More to come and leading claims. C&D maiden winner and second over 1m5f here on seasonal/handicap debut; leading contender.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/2 +44%) Minella Mate		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(3) Minella Mate 9/2, Fairly useful bumper winner who ran to a similar level when making a successful Flat debut at Galway last August and built on that when second both starts in minor events thereafter last summer. Not discounted now handicapping on return to action. Long-priced winner of 1m4f maiden at Galway; solid efforts in staying contests since.
3	4 3rd (4) (3/1 +25%) Zoffman		3 3/1(+25%)																															(4) Zoffman 3/1, Seen only twice last year and shaped as if retaining all of his ability after 9 months off when third of 16 in handicap at this course (13f, good to soft, 7/1) 10 days ago. Entitled to strip fitter for that and one to consider. Smart handicapper put in good effort on seasonal debut here when third of 16 over 1m5f.
4	2 4th (2) (33/1 -106%) Weston		33 33/1(-106%)																															(2) Weston 33/1, Good fifth in Ascot Stakes (Handicap) at Royal Ascot (2¾ lengths behind Ahorsewithnoname) last June but seemed amiss both starts after. Off 7 months. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving Gordon Elliott. Tough ask. Fine fifth for Gordon Elliott in the Ascot Stakes but poor last twice; seasonal/yard debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (7/1 +30%) Last Ammo		7 7/1(+30%)																															(5) Last Ammo 7/1, Respectable seventh of 16 in handicap at this course (13f, good to soft, 25/1) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and he may be sharper given that was his first start for 7 months. On a stiff mark after last summer's win at Galway; fair return when beaten 7l here.
6th	7 6th (7) (4/1 -33%) Neptunes Staircase		4 4/1(-33%)																															(7) Neptunes Staircase 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable second of 12 in maiden at Gowran (12.4f, heavy, 13/8) 14 days ago. Yard having good spell. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Runner-up in three maidens including on return at Gowran; back up in trip for h'cap debut.
7th	1 7th (1) (125/1 -942%) Mt Leinster		125 125/1(-942%)																															(1) Mt Leinster 125/1, First run since leaving W. P. Mullins when pulled up in handicap hurdle (125/1) at Punchestown (16.7f, good to soft) 7 days ago, struggling before 2 out. Likely best watched returned to the Flat. 3-8 on the Flat, mark stiff enough given his age; pulled up over hurdles on stable debut.
8th	6 8th (6) (125/1 -400%) Whiskey Sour		125 125/1(-400%)																															(6) Whiskey Sour 125/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2017. First run since leaving W. P. Mullins when fifteenth of 16 in handicap (100/1) at this course (13f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Good stayer on Flat and over hurdles for Willie Mullins; never a factor here on yard bow.

NEPTUNES STAIRCASE wouldn't be winning out of turn and gets first-time cheekpieces after three consecutive runner-up finishes. He is proven over this trip as he was just held by a neck over C&D in October. Zoffman put in a satisfactory seasonal reappearance when third over a slightly shorter trip at this track in April. He was good enough to finish second in a premier handicap at the Curragh last summer. Bay Of Sanibel is up in class, but won her maiden over C&D and was narrowly beaten at this track last month. Minella Mate is returning from a lengthy absence, but was in decent form in August and September.

A winner on her second start in maidens at 2 yrs, BAY OF SANIBEL showed further improvement when runner-up on return/handicap debut here (13f) 10 days ago and, open to further progress, she looks to hold solid claims of going a place better here. Zoffman and Neptunes Staircase head up the dangers, with Minella Mate not out of things either.

The Harrington filly BAY OF SANIBEL goes well here and was a creditable second on seasonal/handicap debut; the extra furlong will suit

Possibilities with a repeat back up in trip. On same mark as when winning in October; creditable third last time; major player.
2	8 2nd (8) (5/1 +90%) Noah's Light		5 5/1(+90%)																															(8) Noah's Light 5/1, Hurdles winner in Ireland for Declan Queally but little to shout about over fences for current stable and he's hard to fancy operating out of the weights. Irish maiden hurdle winner in 2021; modest form since; no appeal from 6lb out of the h'cap.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/2 +6%) Go Fox		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(4) Go Fox 15/2, Won twice over fences last summer (including here) and best effort since when second over 2m here in February. May of found the race coming too soon when fifth at Catterick later that month and no surprise to see a better showing returned to this venue. Dual winner at about 2m last June; some fair efforts since; ground ideal; trip a worry.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 -50%) Kings Justice		3 3/1(-50%)																															(3) Kings Justice 3/1, Off the mark at Catterick in December and remained in good form since, keeping on well for second at Hereford (20.9f) 23 days ago. Nudged up 4 lb on the back of that but he's a likely player again. Chance on his best form (in front of Kankin last time) but this faster ground a concern.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/4 +66%) School For Scandal		2.75 11/4(+66%)																															(5) School For Scandal 11/4, Not the most reliable but bounced back to form, in first-time cheekpieces, when second of 10 in handicap chase at Hereford (20.9f) in February. Not disgraced on back of a wind op when fourth back there in March and he's not out of things. Not the best of strike-rates; fair form with headgear last twice (after wind op latest).
7	7 |F| (7) (14/1 +0%) Stop This Train		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) Stop This Train 14/1, Placed once from 4 starts in Irish points but has little form under Rules. Passed over operating from out of the weights. Modest hurdler who hasn't improved for going chasing; 6lb out; not an obvious candidate.

KINGS JUSTICE had Kankin (third) behind by five lengths when filling the runner-up spot in this grade at Hereford last month and he only has a 3lb higher mark to contend with. The son of Pether's Moon remains on a workable mark and he looks the way to go. As for the latter, he is 4lb better off with the selection, so he ought to get closer, while School For Scandal is interesting with Harry Cobden booked.

KINGS JUSTICE is proving consistent, which counts for plenty at this level, runner-up at Hereford 23 days ago, and he looks a live player again despite edging up the weights a little more. Go Fox goes well here and is respected back from a break for all he's winless at this trip, with William Ewart another in the mix.

In a tricky low-grade chase KANKIN is taken to reverse last month's Hereford placings with Kings Justice on this better ground.

Low-mileage 5yo who displayed improvement when second of ten on recent handicap debut.
2	10 2nd (10) (9/2 +55%) Triple Nickle		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(10) Triple Nickle 9/2, Just one win from 15 starts over hurdles and she looks vulnerable once more on the back of a below-par recent effort on the Flat. No match for easy winner when second in modest selling handicap in February.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 -100%) Rocky Hill		4 4/1(-100%)																															(5) Rocky Hill 4/1, Sprung a 33/1 surprise on Kelso bumper debut for Ewan Whillans in April 2022. Left qualifying runs well behind when second on handicap bow at Hereford (19.7f, soft) in March and while his jumping went to pot over the same C&D next time, he will be a big player granted a clean round here. Good second on handicap debut in March; fell last month but remains of strong interest.
4	9 4th (9) (6/1 +76%) Karakoram		6 6/1(+76%)																															(9) Karakoram 6/1, Pretty much downhill all the way since he last got his head in front at Taunton in March 2023 and others make more appeal. Five-time hurdle winner; on very good mark now but has been out of form this year.
5th	4 5th (4) (20/1 +39%) Camino Rocio		20 20/1(+39%)																															(4) Camino Rocio 20/1, Milan gelding who offered something to work on when fifth on hurdles debut at Ballinrobe last spring. Well held in pair of starts on these shores for Gary Brown thereafter and was again down the field on handicap debut for new yard at Stratford. Now tried in cheekpieces. Beaten about 24l when 66-1 for recent stable/handicap debut; cheekpieces now added.
6th	8 6th (8) (12/1 +0%) Parliament		12 12/1(+0%)																															(8) Parliament 12/1, Fair winner on the Flat in France in 2022 and while he hasn't troubled the judge in 3 starts over hurdles to date, this 6-y-o is one to monitor in the betting now pitched into a handicap. Soundly beaten in three slow-ground novice/maiden hurdles; may fare better in handicaps.
7th	2 7th (2) (10/1 +0%) Totowolfe		10 10/1(+0%)																															(2) Totowolfe 10/1, Winning Irish pointer finished no better than mid-division in maiden/novice hurdles and failed to improve for the step up in trip when eighth of 13 on handicap debut at Ascot (23.5f, good) in March. Cheekpieces added. Not disgraced in better race than this on handicap debut at Ascot; remains unexposed.
8th	7 8th (7) (14/1 +58%) Buck Of Maine		14 14/1(+58%)																															(7) Buck Of Maine 14/1, From a good French family and reached the frame in both bumpers last year. However, little to shout about over hurdles so far and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Pulled up when 33-1 for recent handicap debut; not the most obvious answer here.
9th	3 9th (3) (28/1 -133%) Secret Sauce		28 28/1(-133%)																															(3) Secret Sauce 28/1, Fair performer on the Flat in Ireland and best effort over hurdles when runner-up in a Hereford novice in January. However, hasn't managed to build on that since and was nearer last than first on recent handicap debut at Stratford. Safely held over 2m2f at Stratford on recent handicap hurdle debut; new trip today.
10th	1 10th (1) (8/1 -100%) Walkinthewoods		8 8/1(-100%)																															(1) Walkinthewoods 8/1, Successful over C&D 12 months ago and runner-up on several occasions since, both in this sphere and over fences. He is proving expensive to follow, though, and needs to bounce back following a lifeless run back hurdling here 15 days ago. Yard also saddles Ionity. Won a division of this race a year ago but suffered worrying dip in form last month.

A bold showing from Shillanavogy in the previous race would significantly bolster the worth of IONITY'S second-placed finish to that rival at Hereford last month and, off just 2lb higher, this could be a good time to catch the Evan Williams-trained five-year-old. Rocky Hill was in touch with the leaders when he fell in that race and can go close if his jumping holds together this time. Walkinthewoods has C&D experience and cannot be ruled out at this level.

ROCKY HILL's jumping let him down at Hereford last time but he is worth another chance on the strength of his improved handicap debut second at the same course in March. Ionity is next on the list ahead of handicap debutant Parliament.

Class-dropper TOTOWOLFE didn't run badly over 2m7f at Ascot in March and is fitted with cheekpieces for this drop back in trip.

1	2 1st (2) (11/4 +31%) Concluding Call		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(2) Concluding Call 11/4, Thrice-raced filly. 8/1, fourth of 23 in maiden at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 17 days ago, travelling better than most and keeping on. Possible she can do better again. Shaped like the run was needed when fourth in Curragh maiden in which Uncanny was second.
2	8 2nd (8) (4/11 +37%) Uncanny		0.363636 4/11(+37%)																															(8) Uncanny 4/11, Churchill filly. Promising start when second of 23 in maiden (4/1) at the Curragh (8f, heavy) on debut 17 days ago, taking time to get going before running on late. Looks sure to progress and increase in trip rates a plus. Big player. Shaped like a certain future winner when strong-finishing second of 23 in Curragh maiden.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/1 -80%) Quantum Light		9 9/1(-80%)																															(7) Quantum Light 9/1, Fair filly. Remains a maiden after 14 Flat runs. 14/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, run easily overlooked when stumbling and unseating early in handicap at Gowran 2 weeks ago. Entitled to be in the mix. Placed in pair of Galway festival handicaps last summer but hasn't really gone on since.
4	3 4th (3) (66/1 -313%) Eyeshadow		66 66/1(-313%)																															(3) Eyeshadow 66/1, Fair filly. 33/1, first run since leaving Harry & Roger Charlton when fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy) 27 days ago. Significantly up in trip but vulnerable to less exposed sorts back in maiden company. Placed in Chepstow handicap when trained in Britain; poor run on seasonal/yard debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (80/1 -300%) Harseva		80 80/1(-300%)																															(5) Harseva 80/1, Harzand filly. Tongue strap on, twenty first of 23 in maiden (100/1) at the Curragh (8f, heavy) on debut 17 days ago. Up in trip. Well behind several of these in Curragh maiden; can only be watched for now.

UNCANNY was a real eyecatcher on debut at the Curragh. She got going late and stayed on strongly but was unable to reel in the winner, who had flown. She looks the one to beat granted normal improvement. In addition, she holds a couple of Grade 2 entries this month and in June. Concluding Call showed ability in two spins on the Polytrack in Dundalk and she performed creditably in fourth on her turf debut at the Curragh. Quantum Light looks exposed after 14 outings, but has been placed on six occasions and has a shot at more prize money.

UNCANNY shaped promisingly making her belated debut when running on late for second in a big-field Curragh maiden 17 days ago and with this increase in trip likely to suit, she holds sound claims with progress anticipated. Concluding Call rates next best ahead of Quantum Light.

Having shaped like a certain future winner on debut, UNCANNY will be a short price to go one better in an ordinary contest

1	2 1st (2) (5/6 +76%) Soir De Gala		0.833333 5/6(+76%)																															(2) Soir De Gala 5/6, Shaped well on handicap debut and built on that effort when opening his account at Taunton (extended 2m), travelling strongly and winning with plenty in hand. Fair third behind one way ahead of his mark at Exeter 18 days ago and remains with potential, so well worth another chance up in trip. Won at Taunton last month, but held off 14lb higher at Exeter; back down 5lb; player.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 -133%) Jolyjump		3.5 7/2(-133%)																															(1) Jolyjump 7/2, Proved a different proposition on handicap debut after 12 weeks off as he landed extended 2m Taunton contest a fortnight ago. Up 7 lb and there should be plenty more to come back up in trip (bred to be much better than this level). Made a successful handicap debut at Taunton and respected despite a 7lb rise.
3	4 3rd (4) (14/1 +58%) Mountain Bay		14 14/1(+58%)																															(4) Mountain Bay 14/1, Well held in bumpers/over hurdles (including in novice handicaps). Dropping in the weights. Little to get carried away with in two bumpers and six starts over hurdles; little appeal.
4	5 4th (5) (16/5 -113%) Tip Top Tonto		3.2 16/5(-113%)																															(5) Tip Top Tonto 16/5, Ridden more patiently than of late and bounced back to his best to register a first success in similar contest over C&D last month. Up 6 lb and the unexposed 5-y-os heading the weights will probably have his measure. Off the mark at the 16th attempt over C&D last month; up 6lb but shortlisted.
5th	3 5th (3) (20/1 -25%) Ronaldoreturns		20 20/1(-25%)																															(3) Ronaldoreturns 20/1, Failed to make an impact back over hurdles on recent handicap debut at Kempton (2m), although wasn't subjected to a hard ride. Hood removed and up in trip now. Hasn't built on a promising hurdles debut; still unexposed, but hard to recommend.
6	6 |F| (6) (66/1 -230%) Swearer		66 66/1(-230%)																															(6) Swearer 66/1, Winning pointer but poor form on completed start over hurdles. Tongue strap/cheekpieces on for handicap debut back from 4 months off. Pulled up the last twice and back from another four months off; new headgear combination.
7	7 |PU| (7) (125/1 -213%) Madra Morjohn		125 125/1(-213%)																															(7) Madra Morjohn 125/1, No impact in bumper/maiden hurdles. Handicap debut. Shown nothing so far; makes his handicap debut from 3lb wrong and little to recommend him.

Now that the penny has dropped for TIP TOP TONTO after an easy success over C&D last month, there should be plenty more to come from the son of Milan and he can overcome a 6lb rise for his in-form connections. Success may come at the main expense of top-weight Jolyjump, who was a taking winner himself over shorter at Taunton on his handicap bow. Soir De Gala is another to consider.

Unexposed SOIR DE GALA and Jolyjump look the pair to focus on, with Paul Nicholls' charge taken to bounce back to winning ways over this new distance. Jolyjump should have plenty more to offer after his Taunton success and is greatly feared back in novicecompany.

Preference is for JOLYJUMP who made a successful handicap debut on good ground at Taunton 13 days ago and likely has more to offer.

1	8 1st (8) (7/2 +71%) Shiroccosmagicbaby		3.5 7/2(+71%)																															(8) Shiroccosmagicbaby 7/2, Winning Irish pointer. Very lightly raced under Rules and shaped with plenty of encouragement tried tongue tied for her debut over fences after 4 months off here (19.4f) in March. Failed to build on that next time though ground might have been too quick. Third over 2m3f here on chasing debut but never involved when upped to 3m last time.
2	2 2nd (2) (4/1 +60%) Hamartia		4 4/1(+60%)																															(2) Hamartia 4/1, Placed twice in maiden hurdles in Ireland for Colm Murphy and respectable start over fences for current yard. Not taken lightly. Not beaten far in two small-field chases towards end of last season still unexposed at 3m.
3	6 3rd (6) (4/1 +0%) Jessie Lightfoot		4 4/1(+0%)																															(6) Jessie Lightfoot 4/1, As good as ever when scoring at Taunton 2 weeks ago, her first run back with her former stable. Not an obvious type to follow up, however. Finished with a rattle to score at Taunton last month and now 3-9 over fences; shortlisted.
4	5 4th (5) (10/1 +70%) Honey I'm Good		10 10/1(+70%)																															(5) Honey I'm Good 10/1, Notched 3 chase wins last spring/summer but form has nosedived since. Won three chases last year but seems to have lost her way since the autumn.
5th	4 5th (4) (28/1 -211%) Cotton End		28 28/1(-211%)																															(4) Cotton End 28/1, Losing run is mounting up but ran creditably by recent standards when third at Worcester. Stiff task there since but has an absence to overcome and stamina is unproven over this far. Returns from break on good mark but has stamina to prove; best on genuine good ground.
6th	3 6th (3) (9/2 -29%) Ask Lileen		4.5 9/2(-29%)																															(3) Ask Lileen 9/2, Winning pointer who's yet to build on hurdle debut fourth, running poorly on handicap bow last time. Should make a chaser at least. Struggled on handicap hurdle debut but this point winner might still do well over fences.
7	7 |PU| (7) (4/1 +0%) Santa Clarita		4 4/1(+0%)																															(7) Santa Clarita 4/1, Yet to score for this yard but 2 decent runner-up efforts over this C&D in recent months so she's respected back up in trip. 0-9 over fences and not consistent but second twice over 2m3f here this year.

JESSIE LIGHTFOOT returned to winning ways over 3m2f at Taunton a couple of weeks ago and Henry Oliver's mare merits the utmost respect off just a 4lb higher mark here. Santa Clarita hit the crossbar at this venue last time and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Ask Lileen and Hamartia are others who make the shortlist.

LOVE ACTUALLY was surrounded by subsequent winners at Taunton in February so makes plenty of appeal down in class. Santa Clarita's 2 best efforts last season came here so is next best ahead of recent Taunton winner Jessie Lightfoot.

Fourth in a much stronger race than this on her latest outing, LOVE ACTUALLY (nap) can capitalise upon her favourable mark.

1	15 1st (15) (12/1 -20%) Cleopatra's Needle		12 12/1(-20%)																															(15) Cleopatra's Needle 12/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Tenth of 14 in handicap (12/1) at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 174 days. Blinkers on 1st time and she will have a serious chance off this reduced mark if able to bounce back. Longstanding maiden who has regressed and more new headgear is now tried.
2	18 2nd (18) (28/1 -75%) Mayo For Sam		28 28/1(-75%)																															(18) Mayo For Sam 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Adrian Brendan Joyce when eleventh of 14 in handicap at Gowran (13.7f, soft, 18/1) 13 days ago. Back down in trip and visor on 1st time. Place possibilities. Dropped away when it mattered on stable debut at Gowran (1m5f) 13 days ago; now visored.
3	11 3rd (11) (7/1 +42%) Charlie Darling		7 7/1(+42%)																															(11) Charlie Darling 7/1, Course winner. Tenth of 14 in handicap at Gowran (13.7f, soft, 9/1) 13 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Back down in trip here and others are more persuasive. A winner off this mark, albeit over much further; ran okay on his return from a break.
4	6 4th (6) (2/1 +50%) Jazz Forever		2 2/1(+50%)																															(6) Jazz Forever 2/1, One win from 1 run this year. 11/1, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Dundalk (10.7f) 25 days ago. On the same mark returned to turf but it remains to be seen if he will build on that breakthrough success. Dug deep to win over this far at Dundalk last month and he's off the same mark here.
5th	16 5th (16) (11/2 +31%) Epaulawn		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(16) Epaulawn 11/2, Below form ninth of 19 in handicap at Naas (8f, soft, 13/2) 8 days ago, never nearer. Back up in trip and is very much one to consider having slipped to an attractive mark. Fair run at Dundalk after 212 days away and last week's Naas run wasn't that shoddy.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 +0%) Hijo De La Luna		33 33/1(+0%)																															(7) Hijo De La Luna 33/1, Below form eighth of 13 in handicap (25/1) at Dundalk (8f) 24 days ago. Back up in trip and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Didn't last long with Ger Lyons and insufficient promise in two runs for this yard.
7th	3 7th (3) (10/1 +29%) Bear Profit		10 10/1(+29%)																															(3) Bear Profit 10/1, 22/1, first run since leaving Stuart Williams when bit below form tenth of 17 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 14 days ago. Opposable. Both wins for Stuart Williams were on AW; down the field on stable debut.
8th	13 8th (13) (10/1 +38%) Gardone		10 10/1(+38%)																															(13) Gardone 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, creditable eighth of 21 in handicap at this course (14f, heavy). Off 6 months ahead of this debut for new yard. Needs a couple of these to falter. Yet to get overly competitive but his two handicaps (1m2f/1m6f) weren't devoid of promise.
9th	12 9th (12) (25/1 +0%) Princess Rajj		25 25/1(+0%)																															(12) Princess Rajj 25/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. 40/1, first run since leaving Mrs J. Harrington when thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f) 46 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Well beaten on stable debut at Dundalk and looks a dodgy stayer over this new trip.
10th	5 10th (5) (12/1 -300%) Palo Duro		12 12/1(-300%)																															(5) Palo Duro 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 8 in maiden (16/1) at Down Royal (7f, soft). Off 7 months and significantly back up in trip for this handicap debut. Tongue strap refitted. One for the shortlist. Improved in each of his runs last season and was under 5l away the final time; h'cap debut.
10th	4 10th (4) (25/1 +0%) Dabana		25 25/1(+0%)																															(4) Dabana 25/1, First run since leaving Mark Fahey when fifteenth of 19 in handicap at this course (13f, good to soft, 66/1) 10 days ago. Back down in trip and she needs to up her game. At 66-1 she was beaten a long way on stable debut at Navan so something to prove now.
12th	17 12th (17) (33/1 -65%) Limited Edition		33 33/1(-65%)																															(17) Limited Edition 33/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Dundalk (12f) 53 days ago, slowly away. Has run well now and again at Dundalk but that's perhaps more his scene.
13th	1 13th (1) (7/1 -17%) Rampage		7 7/1(-17%)																															(1) Rampage 7/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap (11/2) at Dundalk (8f) 46 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip and cheekpieces back on. Capable of a bold show off this mark if he puts his best foot forward. Hasn't returned in bad form but has stamina to prove and he's drawn wide.
14th	2 14th (2) (18/1 -13%) Evolving		18 18/1(-13%)																															(2) Evolving 18/1, 22/1, first run since leaving Francis-Henri Graffard when twelfth of 17 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) on IRE debut 14 days ago. Others preferred. 1m6f winner in France; 22-1 and never really sighted on stable debut at Gowran (1m1f).
15th	9 15th (9) (50/1 -25%) Construct		50 50/1(-25%)																															(9) Construct 50/1, Seventeenth of 19 in handicap (100/1) at this course (13f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Down in trip and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Turf/AW/hurdle winner but hard to be at all confident in his current vein of form.
16th	14 16th (14) (66/1 -100%) Boxing Hero		66 66/1(-100%)																															(14) Boxing Hero 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, last of 12 in maiden at Gowran (12.4f, heavy) 14 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Tailed off after a long absence at Gowran; much to prove on handicap debut.
17th	10 17th (10) (28/1 -133%) No Trouble		28 28/1(-133%)																															(10) No Trouble 28/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 25/1, eighth of 11 in claimer at Roscommon (10.3f, good to soft). Off 8 months and has rejoined former yard. Well held in two turf claimers when last seen in August.

Jazz Forever is the starting point having returned to action with a ready success over a similar trip at Dundalk last month. He is yet to show that he wants rain-softened ground, though, so preference is for Tony Martin's PALO DURO. He could make an impact off a mark of 67 in his first handicap having showed improvement in third in a Down Royal maiden. No Trouble has returned to John McConnell, who he previously had success for. Colin Keane has been enlisted so a big run wouldn't be surprising. Rampage is another to consider as he tries this trip for the second time.

There could be better to come from PALO DURO now that he ventures down the handicap route. Indeed, the unexposed 4-y-o took a step forward when third in a 7f Down Royal maiden when last seen in September and this intermediate trip could prove to be just the ticket. Epaulawn and Cleopatra's Needle both need to bounce back but that's entirely possible having slipped to dangerous marks, while Rampage is not without hope either.

Paul Flynn's JAZZ FOREVER has a decent draw to work with and he's off the same mark as for last month's win on the AW.

1	5 1st (5) (3/1 +0%) Trincomalee		3 3/1(+0%)																															(5) Trincomalee 3/1, Useful hurdler/chaser at his best but off 21 months and failed to match that form last term, including when fifth in Sandown handicap (24.2f) latest. However, promises to be suited by this marathon trip and Dylan Whelan takes off 7 lb. 3-11 over hurdles but 0-8 over fences; has never attempted this far; opposable.
2	7 2nd (7) (11/4 +58%) Planned Paradise		2.75 11/4(+58%)																															(7) Planned Paradise 11/4, Consistent for Neil Mulholland but efforts for this yard since returning to action in October have not been overly inspiring (prone to mistakes over fences). The refitting of cheekpieces needs to perk him up. Has become well handicapped, but not sure he is running well enough to capitalise.
3	8 3rd (8) (15/2 -88%) Jigginstown King		7.5 15/2(-88%)																															(8) Jigginstown King 15/2, It all clicked for him over fences in the first half of last season, completing a hat-trick (first leg here). Pulled up at Hereford in November but back to form next 2 starts, including when third here (21.2f) last month after a break. Player if seeing out longer trip. Has won here and is back off his last winning mark, but needs to prove his stamina.
4	4 4th (4) (10/1 -11%) Jony Max		10 10/1(-11%)																															(4) Jony Max 10/1, Put a couple of poor efforts behind him when landing a 6-runner contest from the front here (24.2f, soft) in November. Not so good there following month and off since, but type to bounce back. 5lb higher than when second in this race last year following an even longer absence.
3	3 |F| (3) (8/1 -7%) Strictlyadancer		8 8/1(-7%)																															(3) Strictlyadancer 8/1, Won 3 on the bounce over fences during 2021/22. Missed the following season and record was mixed last term. Mark has eased at least. Up in trip. Runner-up in one of two previous goes over C&D and drops in class; one for the shortlist.
2	2 |PU| (2) (8/1 -7%) Organdi		8 8/1(-7%)																															(2) Organdi 8/1, Veteran mare who took advantage of a good opportunity at Fontwell in September. Decent effort after 4 months off when fourth of 16 in handicap chase (66/1) at Cheltenham (28.1f, good) 20 days ago. Not taken lightly. Ran well when fourth on last month's Cheltenham return; suited by good ground; shortlisted.
6	6 |PU| (6) (9/2 +80%) Wake Up Early		4.5 9/2(+80%)																															(6) Wake Up Early 9/2, Recorded third win for this yard at Sedgefield (27f) 14 months ago and ran well on his first 2 starts last season. Well held since, however, so plenty to prove after 5 months off. C&D winner; third in this last year; pulled up the last twice so has something to prove.

A tentative vote goes to the veteran COURT MASTER, who looks just the type that will relish this sort of test judged on his penultimate effort at Cheltenham when staying on late over 3m1f. The son of Court Cave has been lightly raced since joining Neil Mulholland and he is narrowly preferred to Trincomalee, who was an encouraging second at Sandown in February. Course winner Jigginstown King is noted too.

JIGGINSTOWN KING wasn't disgraced after 4 months off when third here 25 days ago so could be worth chancing stepped up in trip up against exposed rivals. Trincomalee is feared most ahead of Court Master.

The selection is COURT MASTER (nap) who shaped as though he would come on for last month's reappearance. He has won off higher marks.

1	4 1st (4) (50/1 -100%) Can't Say		50 50/1(-100%)																															(4) Can't Say 50/1, Pulled up in a point and little impact over hurdles so far, never involved on recent handicap debut at Exeter (18.5f). Upped markedly in trip. Well-held seventh over 2m2f on recent handicap debut; moves up in trip here.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/1 +45%) Face D'music		11 11/1(+45%)																															(1) Face D'music 11/1, £100,000 purchase having been placed only start in Irish points and did well when second in a pair of 2m4f Hereford novice hurdles in November. Bit disappointing since however, including in handicap again a fortnight ago. Stamina doubts. Second twice over 2m3f in the autumn but not in same form since returning from a break.
3	8 3rd (8) (4/1 -20%) Blackacre		4 4/1(-20%)																															(8) Blackacre 4/1, Maiden hurdler with a mixed record in this sphere to date but he did fare better than previously when second in 5-runner Fontwell handicap (25.8f) under today's rider 7 weeks ago, making his effort from further back than ideal. That gives him something to build on here. Kept on quite strongly for second at Fontwell in March, suggesting his turn might be near.

Better effort second run in handicaps when not beaten far at Ludlow (21.3f) a fortnight ago with more positive tactics back in use after 9 weeks off. One to consider. Close fourth over 2m5f at Ludlow recently; may yet do better back over 3m.
5th	10 5th (10) (13/2 +19%) Hold Your Fort		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(10) Hold Your Fort 13/2, Showed little in four hurdling starts in September/October 2022 but has won 3 of last 4 starts in points (latest Jun 2023). Worth a look on handicap debut for new trainer. Dual point winner last spring; looks interesting off lowly mark on handicap debut.
6th	5 6th (5) (4/1 +33%) Optimistic Joe		4 4/1(+33%)																															(5) Optimistic Joe 4/1, £60,000 purchase after finishing third in a point last March and stepped up on low-key efforts in maiden company when fourth on his handicap debut at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft). Could build on that up in trip. Kept on for fourth over 2m4f on handicap debut, and promises to be suited by 3m.
7th	6 7th (6) (22/1 -238%) Nordic Storm		22 22/1(-238%)																															(6) Nordic Storm 22/1, Bits of promise over hurdles but ran no sort of race switched to handicap company after 10 weeks off at Taunton (well backed), the step up to this trip not a factor. Bit to prove off same mark. Flopped when upped to 3m for handicap debut but can't be written off just yet.
8th	11 8th (11) (12/1 +14%) Damask		12 12/1(+14%)																															(11) Damask 12/1, Poor maiden handicap hurdler, well beaten at Hereford 6 weeks ago. Up in trip. 0-12 over hurdles; good third at Hereford two starts ago but effectively 6lb higher here.
9th	2 9th (2) (16/1 -60%) Ca Plane Pour Moi		16 16/1(-60%)																															(2) Ca Plane Pour Moi 16/1, Had been shaping up quite well for Colm Murphy, but has run no sort of race in handicaps twice for new yard. Back from a break now. Ex-Irish maiden; struggled and was pulled up on first two stable starts.
7	7 |PU| (7) (13/2 +68%) Inebranlable		6.5 13/2(+68%)																															(7) Inebranlable 13/2, Modest form only when held in fourth in 2m maiden hurdle here in December. Well beaten in handicaps the last twice. Steps up markedly in trip. Well down the field in first two handicaps (2m/2m3f) and not bred for this trip.

NATIVE MOON displayed promise in novice/maiden hurdles and it would be no surprise to see the six-year-old make a winning handicap debut off what appears to be a workable opening mark. Blackacre is an obvious threat to the selection after his second over 3m2f at Fontwell last time, while Bridget Mary edges out Optimistic Joe and Face D'music to be best of the rest.

A few already in danger of becoming disappointing but BLACKACRE offered a bit more at least when second at Fontwell 7 weeks ago and could be worth chancing ahead of Bridget Mary and Native Moon.

There is good evidence to suggest OPTIMISTIC JOE will benefit from today's step up to 3m, and he gets the vote.

1	4 1st (4) (6/1 +40%) Master Dunraven		6 6/1(+40%)																															(4) Master Dunraven 6/1, 14/1, bit below form ninth of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (14f, heavy). Off 6 months and down in trip. Yard in good form and he's not without a chance. 0-8; not far away in a couple of his handicaps and he remains in a respected stable.
2	6 2nd (6) (10/1 +29%) Jawhary		10 10/1(+29%)																															(6) Jawhary 10/1, 22/1, good fifth of 17 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 14 days ago, needing stiffer test. Place possibilities. Early days with this yard and only weakened out of it late on at Gowran (1m1f, soft).
3	13 3rd (13) (11/1 +67%) Rotolo		11 11/1(+67%)																															(13) Rotolo 11/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, soft, 14/1). Off 6 months and it's probably best to look elsewhere on this occasion. Second on handicap debut in 2022 but lightly raced since and hasn't progressed.
4	2 4th (2) (5/1 +17%) Eighty Eight		5 5/1(+17%)																															(2) Eighty Eight 5/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable ninth of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy, 14/1) 50 days ago, running on. Back up in trip and he merits consideration. Eyeshield he has been wearing is now left off but each-way claims if holding his form.
5th	11 5th (11) (13/2 -63%) Elsa's Pride		6.5 13/2(-63%)																															(11) Elsa's Pride 13/2, Promising type. 9/4, good third of 12 in handicap at Tramore (12f, good) when last seen in September, making effort earlier than ideal. Remains open to improvement. Improved form over 1m4f last year but she looks quick enough for this trip.
6th	9 6th (9) (22/1 -38%) Fleetfootsoldier		22 22/1(-38%)																															(9) Fleetfootsoldier 22/1, Latest win at Dundalk in November. First run since leaving Kevin Thomas Coleman when seventeenth of 19 in handicap (25/1) at Naas (8f, soft) 8 days ago. Up in trip and looks set for another struggle. Three wins over 1m; finished tailed off last week at Naas and might not stay this far.
7th	14 7th (14) (22/1 -144%) Tara Power		22 22/1(-144%)																															(14) Tara Power 22/1, One win from 32 Flat runs. Twenty-five runs since last win in 2021. Excellent third of 11 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f, 8/1) 53 days ago, having to pick way through. Each-way chance. Close up over this far at Dundalk last time but his strike-rate of 1-32 is offputting.
8th	7 8th (7) (9/1 -13%) Akmaam		9 9/1(-13%)																															(7) Akmaam 9/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 12/1, creditable sixth of 18 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Up in trip and having slipped to a dangerous mark, he's one to consider. Fairly solid efforts of late and was boxing on over 1m at Cork.
9th	16 9th (16) (16/1 -33%) Duleek Street		16 16/1(-33%)																															(16) Duleek Street 16/1, Bit below form fourth of 9 in novice hurdle at Kelso (16.2f, good to soft, 5/1). Off 7 months and he's hard to warm back on the Flat. In good form over hurdles when last seen and interesting off this low a Flat mark.
10th	15 10th (15) (9/1 +44%) Status Green		9 9/1(+44%)																															(15) Status Green 9/1, Below form twelfth of 20 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, heavy, 10/1) 30 days ago. Back up in trip and he looks vulnerable from a win point of view. Beaten under 4l in a couple of handicaps last summer but his form has steadily gone cold.
11th	18 11th (18) (14/1 +0%) Sunday Evening		14 14/1(+0%)																															(18) Sunday Evening 14/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 16 in handicap (9/1) at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy) 27 days ago, merely closing up late. Significantly back up in trip. Placed over an extended 1m but modest runs last twice and unproven over this far.
12th	17 12th (17) (66/1 -100%) Crystal's Heir		66 66/1(-100%)																															(17) Crystal's Heir 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Nineteenth of 23 in maiden at the Curragh (8f, heavy, 200/1) 17 days ago. Up in trip for this handicap debut. No closer than 21l on the Flat or under National Hunt rules; handicap debut.
13th	8 13th (8) (28/1 -12%) Young Lucy		28 28/1(-12%)																															(8) Young Lucy 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Fair bumper winner. Fifteenth of 17 in handicap (33/1) at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 14 days ago. Sizeable step forward needed. Not progressed from her bumper win and was behind some of these at Gowran two weeks ago.
14th	5 14th (5) (40/1 +20%) Roman Harry		40 40/1(+20%)																															(5) Roman Harry 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 100/1, first run since leaving James McAuley when creditable eighth of 17 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 14 days ago. Positives to take from his recent handicap debut at Gowran (1m1f), going down by 10l.
15th	10 15th (10) (28/1 +30%) Sandyman		28 28/1(+30%)																															(10) Sandyman 28/1, Fifteenth of 20 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, heavy, 50/1) 30 days ago. Back up in trip and he's hard to warm to. Offered little back on the Flat at Leopardstown a month ago.
16th	3 16th (3) (20/1 -300%) Arbaawi		20 20/1(-300%)																															(3) Arbaawi 20/1, Latest win at Dundalk in February. Good third of 14 in handicap (15/2) at the same course (8f) 53 days ago, needing stronger gallop. This new trip is worth exploring and he's high on the shortlist. Has won over 6f, 7f and 1m so has stamina to prove over this new trip.
17th	12 17th (12) (14/1 -17%) Master Garvey		14 14/1(-17%)																															(12) Master Garvey 14/1, One win from 23 Flat runs. Winner at Naas in March. Below form eighth of 19 in handicap at Naas (8f, soft, 14/1) 8 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Back up in trip. 7f winner on heavy in March; just mid-division in his subsequent starts at 7f/1m.
18th	1 18th (1) (18/1 -80%) Limestone Red		18 18/1(-80%)																															(1) Limestone Red 18/1, Winner at Dundalk in November. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Leopardstown (8f, heavy) 30 days ago. Back up in trip and still need to prove that he can mix it on turf. AW winner but has yet prove himself as effective on grass.

ARBAAWI has been a decent recruit for Tom McCourt as evidenced by a victory and a placed effort in Dundalk. Crucially, he has winning form on slower ground from his career in Britain so should be a leading contender under 5lb claimer James Ryan. Duleek Street has been hurdling, but could give David Egan a good spin off a mark off 55 on his return to the level. Tara Power stayed on in third when last seen in Dundalk and could get involved as she has snippets of form on turf. Elsa's Pride has ability, and winning form from Cork, but would prefer better ground on her seasonal reappearance.

The vote goes to ELSA'S PRIDE, who improved in 1½m handicaps on her final two starts of last season and she could have more to offer as a 4-y-o. This trip could prove to be ideal, too. Arbaawi has put in good shifts on the all-weather the last twice and is second choice ahead of Eighty Eight, Akmaam and Jawhary.

David Egan looks an interesting booking for DULEEK STREET who should be well handicapped given the level he's reached over hurdles.

1	5 1st (5) (11/2 +0%) Happy Du Mesnil		5.5 11/2(+0%)																															(5) Happy Du Mesnil 11/2, Maiden hurdler who has yet to convince over fences for current yard, never looking like winning after another sloppy round of jumping when fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (17.2f, soft) 48 days ago. Lightly raced chaser who has perked up for headgear the last twice; thereabouts.
3	2 3rd (2) (8/1 -60%) Cokytho		8 8/1(-60%)																															(2) Cokytho 8/1, Remains a maiden but was a fair performer in France and hasn't been disgraced in a handful of outings for current yard, latest when second of 8 in handicap chase at Hereford (20.9f, soft) 41 days ago. Player. Now 0-16 over fences but he found just a stronger finisher too good at Hereford (2m5f).
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 -200%) Havock		9 9/1(-200%)																															(1) Havock 9/1, Verging on fair in bumpers and ran to a similar level when second on Stratford hurdle debut in November. No show next 3 starts but step back in right direction switched to fences when fifth at Ffos Las. Respected down in class. Went close in a novice hurdle and ran fairly well to be beaten 10l on his switch to fences.
5th	9 5th (9) (6/1 +63%) Over Milk Wood		6 6/1(+63%)																															(9) Over Milk Wood 6/1, Modest form over hurdles in Ireland for Olivia Hegarty in 2021. Missed all of 2022 and 2023 and low-key efforts upon returning to action in recent months. Chase debut. Ran a little better on his third run back from a mammoth absence; chase debut.
6th	12 6th (12) (15/2 +6%) Robins Field		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(12) Robins Field 15/2, Filled runner-up spot 5 times over fences but still seeking first success and well held back over hurdles latest. 2 lb out of handicap. Sixth last time over hurdles but had finished runner-up in three chases before then.
7th	7 7th (7) (14/1 +13%) Highway One O Four		14 14/1(+13%)																															(7) Highway One O Four 14/1, Little impact in 3 novice hurdles and on handicap bow. Has plenty of size for chasing at least. An ordinary hurdler but lightly raced and he's bred to make a chaser.
8th	4 8th (4) (11/2 +21%) Larkfield Lusive		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(4) Larkfield Lusive 11/2, Modest maiden hurdler in Ireland who ran creditably both starts for this yard. Not taken lightly sent chasing. Much depends on whether he can raise his game over fences as needs to.
9th	3 9th (3) (11/1 +31%) Lord Denning		11 11/1(+31%)																															(3) Lord Denning 11/1, Boasts a decent jumps pedigree and showed a bit more at the third attempt over hurdles when fifth in a 14-runner novice at Newcastle. Failed to meet expectations sent chasing there 3 months ago but still early days. Up in trip. One promising hurdle run; ground was heavy when well held on chase/h'cap debut.
10th	6 10th (6) (15/2 +25%) Another Mystery		7.5 15/2(+25%)																															(6) Another Mystery 15/2, Back to form when winning last 2 starts over hurdles (subsequently sold from Lucy Wadham 15,000 gns). Not disgraced back over fences at Market Rasen on yard debut after a break but well held at Huntingdon since. Off 6 months. Hood on 1st time. Dual hurdle winner for Lucy Wadham; quiet start for this yard and 0-6 as a chaser.
11th	13 11th (13) (200/1 -100%) Mawlood		200 200/1(-100%)																															(13) Mawlood 200/1, Little form last season and plenty to prove from out of the handicap after 7 months off. 0-10 over fences and a good while since he ran a race of any distinction.
10	10 |PU| (10) (12/1 -33%) Poetria		12 12/1(-33%)																															(10) Poetria 12/1, Modest form at best over hurdles (0-11 in that sphere) and looked none too keen switched to fences at Newcastle. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Placed over hurdles; made a mistake when below expectations on chase debut.
8	8 |PU| (8) (50/1 +0%) Wotastunner		50 50/1(+0%)																															(8) Wotastunner 50/1, Has completed just once over hurdles and went with no encouragement on chase bow. Poor so far (inc chase debut) but unraced on good ground so that offers some hope.

HAVOCK has to shoulder top-weight for the Skelton team, but caught the eye on his chasing debut at Ffos Las when running well for a long way to finish fifth. Dropped 3lb by the handicapper and upped a furlong, he is entitled to find this company more to his liking. Cokytho has some solid placed form to his name and could be interesting if recent wind surgery brings improvement, while Fast Deal won over further last month and won't be stopping late on.

HAVOCK took a step back in the right direction sent chasing at Ffos Las 2 weeks ago so makes the most appeal down in class in a weak event. Cokytho should be in the mix again, while it's still early days for the unexposed Lord Denning.

It's hard to trust any of these. A chance is taken on HIGHWAY ONE O FOUR who is bred for this new discipline.

1	3 1st (3) (4/1 +0%) Wandering Rocks		4 4/1(+0%)																															(3) Wandering Rocks 4/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. 28/1, seventh of 13 in novice hurdle at Thurles (16.2f, soft) 166 days ago. Debut promise not built on and likely best waited for in handicaps.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/2 +40%) Drumgill		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(7) Drumgill 9/2, Modest hurdler. 125/1, thirteenth of 17 in minor event hurdle at Punchestown (19.3f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Penultimate second at Bellewstown gives him claims back in ordinary maiden company.
3	14 3rd (14) (11/10 +51%) Slim Marvel		1.1 11/10(+51%)																															(14) Slim Marvel 11/10, Fair hurdler. Very good third of 14 in novice hurdle (well-backed 10/3) at this course (17.6f, soft) 18 days ago. Difficult to oppose. Good C&D third last month marks her out as a major player here.

5th	13 5th (13) (66/1 -100%) Racing Daisy		66 66/1(-100%)																															(13) Racing Daisy 66/1, Tongue strap on, seventh of 14 in novice hurdle at this course (17.6f, soft, 50/1) on NH debut 18 days ago. 0-11 in points and last month's C&D hurdles debut leaves her with a lot to find.
6th	11 6th (11) (25/1 -108%) Trade Master		25 25/1(-108%)																															(11) Trade Master 25/1, Sixth of 18 in novice hurdle at Naas (19.3f, soft, 125/1) on NH debut 21 days ago. Mild debut promise at Naas last month but may still need more time.
7th	6 7th (6) (100/1 -52%) Benzine		100 100/1(-52%)																															(6) Benzine 100/1, 66/1, sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16.7f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Soundly beaten three maiden hurdle runs, easily overlooked.
8th	15 8th (15) (125/1 -89%) Sydney Cruiser		125 125/1(-89%)																															(15) Sydney Cruiser 125/1, Ninth of 14 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Clonmel (16.2f, heavy) 152 days ago. Booking of Millar a plus. Maiden hurdle form has been modest, hard to see her featuring.
9th	1 9th (1) (80/1 -100%) Duty Bound		80 80/1(-100%)																															(1) Duty Bound 80/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Eighth of 9 in novice hurdle (25/1) at Down Royal (20f, good to soft) on NH debut. Off 8 months. Flat winner for A Balding; no impact on hurdling debut in September and best watched.
10th	2 10th (2) (50/1 -100%) Relevant Range		50 50/1(-100%)																															(2) Relevant Range 50/1, Fair Flat winner, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Eighth of 18 in handicap (13/2) at Cork (8f, good to soft) 11 days ago, doing too much too soon. Best Flat form on a sound surface, ground here likely not ideal on hurdles debut.
11th	16 11th (16) (150/1 -127%) Daly Pursuit		150 150/1(-127%)																															(16) Daly Pursuit 150/1, Last of 19 in novice hurdle (200/1) at Cork (16.9f, good to soft) on hurdles bow. Off 22 months. RESERVE. Well behind in bumper/maiden hurdle in 2022; lots to find for new yard; reserve.
12th	17 12th (17) (50/1 -100%) Millbrook Queen		50 50/1(-100%)																															(17) Millbrook Queen 50/1, Fascinating Rock mare. Dam 2-y-o 8.3f winner who stayed 10.5f. RESERVE. Unlikely source of a first-time out maiden winner; reserve.
13th	5 13th (5) (12/1 +0%) Aclass		12 12/1(+0%)																															(5) Aclass 12/1, Fifth of 9 in bumper (25/1) at Limerick (18f, heavy) 131 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Some promise in bumpers in December but lot more required to play major role here.
14th	10 14th (10) (150/1 -127%) Texas King		150 150/1(-127%)																															(10) Texas King 150/1, 25/1, thirteenth of 15 in novice hurdle at this course (17.6f, soft) on NH debut 18 days ago. Dropped away quite tamely on last month's C&D hurdles debut; likely to need more time.

SLIM MARVEL, who finished third in a mares maiden hurdle here last month, has every chance of going two places better. The six-year-old is somewhat unfortunate to be starting the new season still without a win, as she only went down by a nose when looking all over a winner at Wexford in November. The Andrew Slattery-trained mare won't get many better opportunities. With John Ryan one of the leading trainers at this venue, his representative Drumgill has to be of interest. Although well beaten in a competitive affair at Punchestown last week, the five-yea-old had earlier finished runner-up at Bellewstown. Wandering Rocks, a winner on the flat when trained in Britain, looks another live contender for trainer Bill Durkan.

SLIM MARVEL surpassed her previous efforts when third here last time and could be hard to beat in this company. Midweek Voices might be the main danger ahead of newcomer Dorans Mill.

An ordinary enough maiden hurdle and semingly a good opportunity for recent C&D third SLIM MARVEL (nap)

1	3 1st (3) (11/10 +12%) Trevada		1.1 11/10(+12%)																															(3) Trevada 11/10, Fair hurdler who made a decent start over fences last year, finishing runner-up twice. Has since left Oliver Sherwood and with first-time cheekpieces on, he looks the one to beat on his first start in a hunter chase. Dual winning pointer, runner-up last time (Apr 13). Second in two handicap chases this time last year and in good form in points this year.

Ellis when fourth of 6 at Stratford (22.6f, good to soft) 16 days ago. More severe headgear enlisted and should go well. 8-21 in points and 0-20 under rules, but in the frame in last four hunter chases; visor on.

Hiked up in trip for chase debut (won last 2 of 7 starts in points, latest Apr 20). Has won his last two points, but needs a bit more on this first go over regulation fences.

A winner of two of his last three starts in the point-to-point sphere, TREVADA sets the standard on his first run under Rules for the Francesca Poste team. Jockey Zac Baker retaining the ride is a big plus and the eight-year-old should have too much for the in-form pointer Court Cian, as well as Precious Bounty, who finished fourth in a better race at Stratford last time.

TREVADA made an encouraging start over fences last year and arriving fit from points (dual winner), Francesca Poste's 8-y-o looks the way to go on his first start in a hunter chase. He can get the better of Precious Bounty, who matched his previous form in this sphere at Stratford last month and now has more severe headgear enlisted. Court Cian can fill out third.

The choice is TREVADA who has some good form in handicap chases and has run consistently well in points so far this year.

1	8 1st (8) (9/2 +44%) Boston Joe		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(8) Boston Joe 9/2, Back from lengthy absence when scoring over fences at Wincanton in October. Below form thereafter but a recent spin over hurdles here ought to have put him spot on ahead of this return to chasing but he does need to keep the errors at bay. Very well handicapped on autumn chase form and recent hurdle run was satisfactory.
2	2 2nd (2) (33/1 -175%) Fire Dancer		33 33/1(-175%)																															(2) Fire Dancer 33/1, Made a winning start for this yard on the back of a lengthy absence at Ludlow in January 2023 but has looked one with problems since, again running well below form at Taunton (2m) 26 days ago. Passed over despite easing mark. Ran well in defeat two starts ago but has very mixed record in Britain; hard to predict.
3	7 3rd (7) (11/2 -10%) Limetree Boy		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(7) Limetree Boy 11/2, Winning hurdler who left the firm impression he'd have gone close to breaking his duck in this sphere under a more positive ride when fourth at Taunton (2m, soft) 26 days ago, finishing with a flourish from 2 out. Worth bearing in mind on the back of that. Aided by cheekpieces when making the frame in two chases towards end of last season.
4	1 4th (1) (5/1 -25%) Western General		5 5/1(-25%)																															(1) Western General 5/1, Hurdles winner who has the background of a better chaser and fared much better than previously in this sphere (in a tongue tie) when second of 11 in handicap at Taunton (2m) 26 days ago, his jumping arguably costing him. Respected for all he needs to keep the errors at bay. Went very close at Taunton last month, where awkward jump at final fence proved costly.
5th	11 5th (11) (16/1 +20%) Man Of Light		16 16/1(+20%)																															(11) Man Of Light 16/1, Modest winner at 17f over hurdles but suffered a heavy fall on chase debut at Taunton in March and no real encouragement to glean from his latest run when sixth of 11 in handicap at Exeter 917.5f) 18 days ago. Just a respectable sixth at Exeter last month but on a very tempting mark now.
6th	12 6th (12) (18/1 +28%) Tribesmans Glory		18 18/1(+28%)																															(12) Tribesmans Glory 18/1, Fair winning chaser here for Tom George in 2020 and ran one of his better races in recent seasons back over fences when finishing a well-beaten second at Bangor (17.4f, heavy) in March. However, couldn't land a blow when sixth at Taunton (2m) since. Work to do from out of the weights. Regressive and inconsistent 10yo who has not won since 2020; 3lb wrong; others preferred.
9	9 |F| (9) (40/1 -186%) Henry Box Brown		40 40/1(-186%)																															(9) Henry Box Brown 40/1, Opened his account over hurdles in December 2022 but hasn't replicated that level of form since, including when well held on C&D chase debut 12 months ago. Absent since finishing down the field over hurdles at Stratford in November and percentage call to look elsewhere. Struggled in this race on chase debut last year; also out of form over hurdles in autumn.
6	6 |F| (6) (66/1 -450%) Shareef Star		66 66/1(-450%)																															(6) Shareef Star 66/1, In good form in handicap chases in July 2022, winning twice and easy to back, almost certainly needed the run on back of 19 months off when pulled up over hurdles at Ffos Las (15.8f) in March. This should reveal more. Dual chase winner in 2022; struggled on heavy ground in March; can fare better today.
4	4 |PU| (4) (2/1 -6%) Bullets Hill		2 2/1(-6%)																															(4) Bullets Hill 2/1, Dual bumper winner who has took his form up a level in handicap hurdles of late, decisively coring at Exeter/Ffos Las at up to 18.5f. Of interest now attentions switch to larger obstacles in hat-trick bid. Dual hurdle winner last month and open to further progress now switched to fences.
10	10 |PU| (10) (7/1 +56%) Hooky Street		7 7/1(+56%)																															(10) Hooky Street 7/1, Maiden who ran to a similar level as on chase debut when third in first-time blinkers at Exeter (17.5f) 18 days ago. Each-way claims with a repeat. Began chasing career with two decent efforts in headgear last month; enters calculations.
5	5 |PU| (5) (25/1 -127%) Fulgurix		25 25/1(-127%)																															(5) Fulgurix 25/1, Signed off last season with a game success under testing conditions at Chepstow. However, he needs to get back on track having run well below his best in trio of starts so far this year. Blinkers need to have positive effect now. Out of form this year and needs to respond well to addition of blinkers.

Shareef Star had some good form over fences in 2022 and although pulled up here over hurdles after a 578-day layoff, he is one to consider with that race under his belt. Hooky Street could also go well with Harriet Dickin's horses running to form, but the vote goes to BULLETS HILL. The winner of his last two starts over hurdles, he is bred to be just as good or better over fences and could surprise them all.

LIMETREE BOY left the firm impression he'd havefgone close under a more positive ride when fourth at Taunton 26 days ago, finishing with a flourish from 2 out. He earns the vote to confirm the promise of that run, with Bullets Hill, who has been thriving over hurdles in recent weeks, another of firm interest. Western General also rates a player provided he jumps better than he did on his latest outing.

Unlucky not to win at Taunton last month, WESTERN GENERAL can gain compensation if he avoids any significant jumping errors here.

1	4 1st (4) (3/1 -20%) Taste The Fear		3 3/1(-20%)																															(4) Taste The Fear 3/1, Well-served by fitting of first-time blinkers when cashing in off much-reduced mark over C&D 2 weeks ago, asserting from 3 out. Rider's claim off sets his weight rise and big shout provided headgear has desired effect once more. The blinkers worked over C&D 14 days ago but this may take more winning.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/2 +15%) Morning Spirit		5.5 11/2(+15%)																															(1) Morning Spirit 11/2, Has dipped to an attractive mark, now 9 lb below that off which he opened his chase account at Carlisle in November 2022. However, he hasn't really threatened since and he finished well held after 4 months off at Stratford in March. On a very good mark if getting back on track but again he disappointed last time.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +20%) Minella Double		4 4/1(+20%)																															(5) Minella Double 4/1, Irish point winner who made a winning debut over hurdles at Hexham (20f) back in the autumn. Hasn't kicked on from that subsequently, including when fourth of 5 on chase debut at Huntingdon (23.6f) in March. Hasn't gone on from winning a Hexham maiden (2m4f, soft) on hurdling debut in October.
4	6 4th (6) (100/1 -100%) Lough Salt		100 100/1(-100%)																															(6) Lough Salt 100/1, Successful twice in 3m handicap chases here in early-2022. Form patchy since and has temperament issues these days, so hard to fancy returning to the larger obstacles from miles out of the weights after a 4-month break. Veteran who will do well to get competitive here from well out of the weights.
5th	3 5th (3) (4/1 -45%) Son Of The Somme		4 4/1(-45%)																															(3) Son Of The Somme 4/1, Hurdles/chase winner who ran again ran well on stable debut when second of 8 in handicap chase at Newbury (22.4f) in March. The way he kept on then suggests this return to 3m will suit and he's worth considering. Positive start for this yard when second to a progressive rival at Newbury.
6th	2 6th (2) (5/2 +0%) Ernest Gray		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(2) Ernest Gray 5/2, Hurdle winner who stepped up on chase debut when scoring over C&D in January and quickly dispelled a lesser effort when runner-up in a first-time visor at Doncaster (3m) in March. Possibilities if headgear has desired effect once more. C&D winner and probably better again in defeat last time; bang there.

Taste The Fear could prove popular here after his C&D success last month, but he won by less than a length that day and an added 4lb from the handicapper looks prohibitive. ERNEST GRAY has also been successful over this C&D and was a length second at Doncaster in March. With the going ideal, he can go well for the in-form Alan King yard, while Minella Double is only six and may have more to offer.

TASTE THE FEAR was perked up no end by the fitting of blinkers when cashing in off his much-reduced mark over C&D 2 weeks ago. With his rider's claim off setting his rise in weights, he looks a live player again provided the headgear has the desired effect once more. Son of The Somme, back up in trip, and Ernest Gray are others to consider.

Ernest Gray is perhaps the most solid of these but SON OF THE SOMME made a good start for Toby Lawes at Newbury.

Down in trip. Flat winner yet to convince hurdling; better ground should suit though.
2	12 2nd (12) (11/1 +21%) Dreamz		11 11/1(+21%)																															(12) Dreamz 11/1, Sixth of 18 in novice hurdle (50/1) at Thurles (15.9f, heavy) 52 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Could improve. Potential improver back on better ground for handicap debut.

5th	17 5th (17) (18/1 -13%) Baltinglass Hill		18 18/1(-13%)																															(17) Baltinglass Hill 18/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. 20/1, eighteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (17f, soft) 133 days ago. RESERVE. Ground coming in his favour and yard couldn't be in better form; reserve.
6th	8 6th (8) (6/1 +8%) Missus Beeton		6 6/1(+8%)																															(8) Missus Beeton 6/1, 9/1, creditable fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (17f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Last month's handicap debut at Bellewstown was encouraging after a break; one to consider.
7th	3 7th (3) (7/2 +68%) Shraheen		3.5 7/2(+68%)																															(3) Shraheen 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 25/1, respectable eighth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, heavy) 37 days ago. Mild maiden promise but let down by jumping on handicap debut at Fairyhouse.
8th	7 8th (7) (14/1 +0%) In For The Night		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) In For The Night 14/1, Below form ninth of 22 in handicap hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy, 12/1) 170 days ago. Not seen since below form on testing ground in November so may need this.

10th	10 10th (10) (12/1 -41%) New Barn Lane		12 12/1(-41%)																															(10) New Barn Lane 12/1, Fifth of 7 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Limerick (16f, heavy) 98 days ago, unable to sustain effort. First run for yard after leaving Eoin Christopher McCarthy. Limerick promise last term; first run for Conor O'Dwyer and may just need this.
11th	16 11th (16) (33/1 -18%) Inthenickoftime		33 33/1(-18%)																															(16) Inthenickoftime 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, eighth of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 90 days ago, not knocked about. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should progress. Nothing in maidens; hooded here for handicap debut and market only guide to his chances.
12th	9 12th (9) (11/2 +61%) Spick And Span		5.5 11/2(+61%)																															(9) Spick And Span 11/2, Fair maiden hurdler. Temperament under suspicion and been off another 7 months. Check the betting. Runs well here so market could be telling on first run since September.

NEW BARN LANE may be worth chancing on his debut for trainer Conor O'Dwyer. The seven-year-old undoubtedly has the ability to win a race of this nature but tends to pull much too hard. If O'Dwyer has managed to settle the son of Getaway, then he would have strong claims around a tight track which should suit his prominent racing style. Spick And Span, who was twice runner-up in maidens at this track a couple of years back, isn't without her chance. The Aidan Howard-trained mare has been off the racecourse since last September so her fitness has to be taken on trust. Handicap debutant Inthenickoftime, who like the latter also carries the J.P. McManus colours, is open to plenty of improvement.

MISSUS BEETON made a good return on her handicap debut at Bellewstown a fortnight ago and has a decent chance off the same mark if building on that. Red Glory and Dreamz are a couple of several dangers.

Wide open but RED GLORY shaped well enough on his recent handicap debut to suggest he can play a major role here

1	8 1st (8) (16/1 +52%) Come On Nia		16 16/1(+52%)																															(8) Come On Nia 16/1, Telescope mare who offered some promise in maidens/novices but struggled on handicap debut at Taunton a couple of months ago. Others preferred. Unexposed after only four hurdle runs but was soundly beaten on handicap debut.
2	9 2nd (9) (7/2 +50%) Thatza Dazzler		3.5 7/2(+50%)																															(9) Thatza Dazzler 7/2, Offered little before causing a surprise to open account over fences at Ludlow (2m, heavy) in February and back on track when runner-up at this course three weeks ago. Back over smaller obstacles on a fair mark. Inconsistent, but won over fences in February and has the ability to feature here.
3	10 3rd (10) (9/4 +32%) Smart Casual		2.25 9/4(+32%)																															(10) Smart Casual 9/4, 6/4, creditable second of 6 in handicap hurdle at this course (20f, heavy) 37 days ago, travelling well. Leaves the impression there's a better effort in him and this looks the ideal opportunity for him to open his account. 0-8 over hurdles but has been knocking on the door since the the winter: likley contender.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 -125%) Good Impression		18 18/1(-125%)																															(5) Good Impression 18/1, Boasts a pretty good strike rate over hurdles, regaining winning thread at Newton Abbot (16.7f) in September and similar form when runner-up at that venue later that month. Likely needed the run at Uttoxeter last time and should be back on track. Six-time hurdle winner; ran okay last month, after a break, and current mark is workable.
5th	1 5th (1) (28/1 -40%) Supposedtobe		28 28/1(-40%)																															(1) Supposedtobe 28/1, Won selling hurdle and Uttoxeter handicap last summer but has struggled in handicaps since. Plenty to prove. Hurdle/Flat winner last summer; heavy ground excuses low-key reappearance run in March.
6th	3 6th (3) (11/2 +39%) Thurley		5.5 11/2(+39%)																															(3) Thurley 11/2, Just modest form to date over hurdles but he's bred to do better and shaped as if he'd come on for the run on handicap debut at Exeter last time. Not dismissed. Ran well for long way on recent handicap debut and can get much closer to the target here.
7th	2 7th (2) (18/1 -300%) Brandt		18 18/1(-300%)																															(2) Brandt 18/1, Showed a bit in a couple of bumpers for Gordon Elliott and produced best effort to date for current stable when fourth in novice hurdle at Warwick (16f, heavy) in November. Disappointing handicap debut at Southwell 33 days ago but may strip fitter for it and he's tongue tied now. Looked a non-stayer over 2m4f on handicap debut; may fare better now back in trip.
8th	6 8th (6) (18/1 -200%) State Of Honor		18 18/1(-200%)																															(6) State Of Honor 18/1, Had the race was in the bag when she crashed out at the final flight on her handicap debut at Hereford in February 2023 but shaped as if badly in need of the run here 9 months later and has been off a further 177 days since. Unlucky not to make winning handicap debut in February 2023; seen only once since.
9th	4 9th (4) (25/1 -150%) Cocardier		25 25/1(-150%)																															(4) Cocardier 25/1, Well held in 2 bumpers but signs of encouragement over hurdles so far and could up his game now handicapping after a break. Open to improvement in handicaps and will be feared if strong in the betting.
7	7 |F| (7) (11/2 +21%) Coup De Gold		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(7) Coup De Gold 11/2, Snapped losing run at Sedgefield (16.8f) in January and creditable efforts both subsequent outings. Has left David Thompson prior to this (off 2 months) and is worthy of a market check. Won at Sedgefield for another stable in January; makes debut for Evan Williams here.
10th	13 10th (13) (14/1 +58%) Prince Rhinegold		14 14/1(+58%)																															(13) Prince Rhinegold 14/1, Far more miss than hit and was down the field at Taunton 3 months ago, so hard to make a solid case for. Won very weak novice in 2023 but has not made much impact in handicaps.

GOOD IMPRESSION is the only C&D winner in the field and although he is now rated 91, he may strip fitter after his Uttoxeter sixth which was his first start in six months. He can go well and may have most to fear from the lightly-raced Thatza Dazzler, who reverts to hurdles after a good second here last month over fences. State Of Honor and Cocardier are others to consider.

SMART CASUAL is still relatively unexposed and, having travelled strongly over further when second at this track last time, he boasts excellent claims of going one better. Coup de Gold is a threat on debut for Evan Williams and Thurley can't be ruled out.

The pick is unexposed 5yo THURLEY, who ran much better than the bare form suggests when sixth on his handicap debut.

1	6 1st (6) (10/1 -67%) Gale Mahler		10 10/1(-67%)																															(6) Gale Mahler 10/1, Well backed and made a promising start when fourth of 7 in bumper (6/5) at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) 8 weeks ago, shaping as in need of a stiffer test. Cheekpieces on and interesting to see if her supporters return. Favourite at Sedgefield and found all trouble going; was beaten under 3l.
2	9 2nd (9) (7/2 +42%) Roaring Home		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(9) Roaring Home 7/2, Out of a bumper winner and positive start in mares' events at Ludlow and Ascot (perhaps not ridden to best advantage in a slowly-run contest). Could be capable of better returning from a break. Placed in both her bumpers and there's substance to the latest form at Ascot.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/5 +20%) Asian Star		0.8 4/5(+20%)																															(1) Asian Star 4/5, Malinas mare who shaped very well when fifth of 18 in bumper at Cheltenham (16.8f, good, 5/2) 19 days ago, likely to have gone close had things broken better for her (finished with running left after badly hampered over 1f out). Open to improvement, she looks sure to go well. Beaten 6.5l at Cheltenham and would have been closer but for interference.
4	11 4th (11) (6/1 +33%) Briery Bee		6 6/1(+33%)																															(11) Briery Bee 6/1, Dartmouth filly who showed plenty of ability when second of 7 in bumper at Fakenham (16f, good to soft) on debut just over 5 weeks ago, headed well inside final 1f. Could well have a say in this with that under her belt. Stoutly bred so encouraging that she ran so well at Fakenham.
5th	10 5th (10) (16/1 -191%) Wilmcote		16 16/1(-191%)																															(10) Wilmcote 16/1, Jack Hobbs mare.

Dam (c88/h105), 2m-2½m hurdle winner, half-sister to Grand National winner Rule The World. Highly respected on debut for her in-form yard. Bred to win races over jumps and stable wins plenty of these races.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 -83%) Genies Girl		33 33/1(-83%)																															(7) Genies Girl 33/1, €1,800 3-y-o, Sageburg mare. Half-sister to bumper winner/fair 23f hurdle winner Olivers Travels. Dam (b80), placed once in bumpers, half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (stays 3¼m) Sporting Ace. 1,800euros 3yo; second foal; half-sister to bumper/2m7f hurdle winner Olivers Travels.
7th	2 7th (2) (33/1 +34%) Cocco Madonna		33 33/1(+34%)																															(2) Cocco Madonna 33/1, Had breathing operation prior to debut and went with little immediate promise in bumper at Huntingdon (15.8f, soft) in January. Looks one for later on. Prominent to a point but weakened out of it on good to soft at Huntingdon in January.
8th	8 8th (8) (25/1 -178%) Marco's Light		25 25/1(-178%)																															(8) Marco's Light 25/1, Champs Elysees mare. Closely related to 7f-1¼m winner Maude Adams and half-sister to a winner. Dam, 9.5f winner who stayed 12.5f, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 2¾m) Kasthari.

Looks one for the longer term. Beaten 21l into mid-division on heavy-ground debut here in February.
10th	3 10th (3) (125/1 -279%) Devon Skies		125 125/1(-279%)																															(3) Devon Skies 125/1, Shaped as if in need of the experience when well held in bumper at Cheltenham (16.8f, good) on debut 19 days ago, running green. 125-1 for a Class 2 bumper at Cheltenham 19 days ago and was always out the back.
11th	14 11th (14) (100/1 -52%) Spinnova		100 100/1(-52%)																															(14) Spinnova 100/1, Offered little when eighth of 10 in bumper at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) on debut 13 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. Weakened when it mattered at Uttoxeter and was beaten 20l into eighth (on soft; 40-1).
12th	13 12th (13) (250/1 -25%) Miss Motivator		250 250/1(-25%)																															(13) Miss Motivator 250/1, Tailed-off last in bumper at Wetherby (16f, heavy) 7 weeks ago. Can only be watched. Finished tailed off at Wetherby (soft) when allowed to go off at 125-1.

Briery Bee might be the obvious pick after her second at Fakenham last month when beaten less than a length at the line. Roaring Home is another to consider seriously, but a chance is taken on GALE MAHLER. Sent off favourite on her Sedgefield debut, she had to be switched for a run a furlong out, and again close home, so was possibly an unlucky loser.

A few in with a squeak but the vote goes to ASIAN STAR, who would have likely gone close had things broken better for her at Cheltenham last month. With improvement on the cards, she can get the better of Gale Mahler, who was well backed and made a promising start when finishing a close fourth at Sedgefield 8 weeks ago. Debutantes Marco's Light and Wilmcote are worth keeping a close eye on, too.

Dan Skelton's ASIAN STAR was just getting up a head of steam when stopped in her tracks on the run-in at Cheltenham.

Pacault when 10¼ lengths seventh of 11 to Slade Steel in Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham (16.4f, heavy) on yard debut 56 days ago.

Dam (c104/h107), maiden jumper (stayed 3m), half-sister to smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Emotional Moment. Wears hood. From family of War Of Attrition; hooded for debut and worth a market check.

9th	11 9th (11) (66/1 +34%) West Clare		66 66/1(+34%)																															(11) West Clare 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Ninth of 14 in novice hurdle at Cork (20f, heavy, 125/1) 47 days ago. Needs to improve plenty on both recent maiden hurdle runs to feature.

The Willie Mullins-trained SUPERSUNDAE can score on just his second start for the champion trainer. The fact Mullins ran the five-year-old in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle on his initial outing suggests that the former French trained gelding must have been showing up well at home. Beaten just over ten lengths at the festival, he should find this a formality. Point-to-point winner Marv Michael has twice reached the frame in maiden hurdles, achieving a rating of 112 in the process. Ordinarily that might well be good enough to win a country maiden but the Henry De Bromhead-trained six-year-old looks to have bumped into one here. Kilkee Bay looks one that can make the frame for trainer Gordon Elliott.

SUPERSUNDAE sets the bar very high for a race like this and can't be opposed. Marv Michael had heavy ground as an excuse for a poor run at Limerick last month and can bounce back to form and fill the forecast spot ahead of Gordon Elliott's Kilkee Bay.

Supreme Novices' seventh SUPERSUNDAE takes a huge drop in class and is hard to oppose

1	3 1st (3) (6/1 +20%) Captain Attridge		6 6/1(+20%)																															(3) Captain Attridge 6/1, Fair maiden on the Flat who has been brought along steadily over hurdles, running his best race when fifth of 12 on 2m Ludlow handicap debut (soft) in November. Off since. This sort of ground might suit better given his Flat background. Should be up to featuring off this mark if ready to go again after another absence.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/10 +45%) Sanitiser		1.1 11/10(+45%)																															(4) Sanitiser 11/10, Fairly useful handicapper on the Flat. Yet to strike over hurdles but has caught the eye when reaching the frame in 2m Kempton handicaps on his last 2 outings 5 months apart. Should be a matter of time before he's winning from this mark. Leading claims on his recent Kempton third, as long as he settles back in cheekpieces.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 -40%) Ellerton		3.5 7/2(-40%)																															(6) Ellerton 7/2, Fairly useful Flat on the Flat in France for Tim Donworth. Has shown some aptitude for hurdling and this a lot more realistic than the Grade 2 juvenile he contested on his latest start in January. Should be up to making his presence felt from a hurdle mark in the 90s. Fairly useful on the Flat in France but nothing exciting over hurdles yet; this easier.
4	5 4th (5) (25/1 -56%) Come To Pass		25 25/1(-56%)																															(5) Come To Pass 25/1, Modest handicapper on Flat (stays 10f) and similar form over hurdles. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Often pulls hard; was again keen when below market expectations back on the Flat recently.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 -140%) Smurfette		12 12/1(-140%)																															(2) Smurfette 12/1, Placed in mares' bumper/novice hurdle but disappointing when sent off at only 7/2 in a 15-runner race on her Market Rasen handicap debut in April. Still early days for her top stable but hard to be confident about after last time. Said to have stopped quickly latest; that leaves her something to prove off the same mark.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/2 +40%) Easter Junction		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(1) Easter Junction 9/2, Placed on the first of 2 starts in bumpers and fair form when fourth in maidens on first 2 completed starts over hurdles. Looked unsuited by the step up to 19f when only sixth on Carlisle handicap debut in December. Off since (has had wind surgery) and retains potential as a lightly-raced sort. Evidently felt capable at this level; maybe wind surgery/drop in trip will do the trick.
7th	8 7th (8) (80/1 +0%) Always Force It		80 80/1(+0%)																															(8) Always Force It 80/1, Shaped well in pair of handicap hurdles for Gavin Cromwell in the autumn but no show for new yard this spring. Has something to prove. Has offered very little in two runs for this yard; would be a shock winner.
7	7 |PU| (7) (100/1 +0%) Thorpeness		100 100/1(+0%)																															(7) Thorpeness 100/1, Fair start over hurdles for Dan Skelton when placed in a couple of maidens last summer but struggled since, including both runs for this yard. Went backwards for Dan Skelton and offered little for his new yard last time.

The versatile SANITISER has shown promise in his previous starts over hurdles and is presented with a good opportunity to get off the mark on his seventh start in this discipline. A respectable third in a similar type of race at Kempton last month, the five-year-old can be a force in this company if he carries the momentum forward. Mambo Beat is dangerous to underestimate from the foot of the handicap, while Ellerton is another with a solid each-way chance dropping back down in class here.

SANITISER ran as if just needing it back from 5 months off at Kempton recently and can show his modest hurdle mark to be lenient this time. Ellerton is another who can be made to look well treated judged on Flat ability and is second choice ahead of Easter Junction.

There are risks involved with all nine but SANITISER is well treated if he settles early and gives himself the chance of seeing it out.

1	12 1st (12) (100/1 -150%) Moonscape Girl		100 100/1(-150%)																															(12) Moonscape Girl 100/1, Related to a bumper winner but hasn't shown enough as yet to make her of serious interest. Two runs at Huntingdon, finishing a 12l fifth and an 18l seventh.
2	2 2nd (2) (66/1 -164%) Damzon		66 66/1(-164%)																															(2) Damzon 66/1, Limited encouragement at Hereford on debut and will need a lot more if she's to get competitive in this. 40-1 when sixth at Hereford and made up some late ground to be 26l off the winner.

5th	13 5th (13) (15/2 -36%) Porridge		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(13) Porridge 15/2, Casamento filly. Dam unraced, out of useful hurdler/fair chase winner (stayed 2¾m) Bold Fire. Fourth on sole outing in point bumpers (Feb 25). Yard does well in this sphere and she's not without hope. Beaten 13l into fourth in a 2m point bumper at Larkhill in February.
6th	10 6th (10) (40/1 -21%) Eileen's Orders		40 40/1(-21%)																															(10) Eileen's Orders 40/1, Order of St George filly.

First foal; dam runner-up in 2m4f bumper and half-sister to smart jumper Puffin Billy.

Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser Tedham, stayed 3¼m, and fair hurdler Lily of Leysbourne. One to take seriously on debut. £88,000 3yo; nice pedigree and in top hands, so of obvious interest.
8th	11 8th (11) (22/1 +33%) Lady Henrietta		22 22/1(+33%)																															(11) Lady Henrietta 22/1, Blue Bresil filly. Dam (c95/h114), 19f-23f hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Benefit Cut. Likely to need time. Dam 2m3f-2m7f winner; bred to do better further down the line when sent further.
9th	3 9th (3) (9/4 -38%) Either Way		2.25 9/4(-38%)																															(3) Either Way 9/4, Diamond Boy mare. Half-sister to fair 19f hurdle winner Either Or. Dam unraced. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Jan 21) and looks the one to beat starting out under Rules for a top yard. Second in her point behind a recent Plumpton bumper winner.
10th	14 10th (14) (28/1 -75%) Precious Jean		28 28/1(-75%)																															(14) Precious Jean 28/1, Out of a modest hurdler and down the field at Cheltenham on debut. This is a lesser race but she'll still need to step forward. Trailed the winner by 20l at Cheltenham 19 days ago when a 33-1 chance.
11th	5 11th (5) (16/1 -14%) Hot Chique		16 16/1(-14%)																															(5) Hot Chique 16/1, £8,000 4-y-o, Black Sam Bellamy mare. Closely related to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Hill Sixteen. Trainer’s newcomers are worthy of respect. £8,000 4yo; fifth foal; closely related to smart 2m3f-3m hurdle/chase winner Hill Sixteen.
12th	1 12th (1) (12/1 +25%) Annie Don		12 12/1(+25%)																															(1) Annie Don 12/1, Yeats mare. Closely related to bumper winner/fairly useful chaser Middlebrow. Dam lightly raced over hurdles. Runner-up on third of 3 starts in Irish points (Mar 2). Second in an Irish point and the winner has since finished runner-up in a bumper.
13th	6 13th (6) (17/2 -21%) Made For Me		8.5 17/2(-21%)																															(6) Made For Me 17/2, Runner-up completed start in Irish points (Mar 2023). Only fourth in C&D bumper last month but should build on that and makes most appeal of those with bumper form. 100-30 when a front-running fifth here a month ago having got tired on heavy ground.

EITHER WAY was second on her only start between the flags in Ireland and it would be no surprise to see the five-year-old make a winning Rules debut here. Yesanna cost 88,000 pounds as a store and she is closely related to plenty of winners, including the Grade 3-placed hurdler Tedham. Barrabool and Made For Me are the pick of those with racecourse experience but could be vulnerable.

EITHER WAY finished second in a point and has been picked up by Nicky Henderson since, so she looks the obvious way to go in a race where the bar isn't set very high. Yesanna is a notable newcomer on paper and Made For Me should step up on her Rules debut.

Either Way is an obvious one but YESANNA didn't come cheap at the sales and her dam was a dual bumper winner.

CAPTAIN JIMMY, who returned to form with an emphatic success at this track last month, can follow up. The Pat Kelly-trained veteran went clear on the run-in to win easily by five lengths. Although subsequently hit with an 8lb rise, the 11-year-old could well be capable of overcoming that hike in what looks an ordinary race. A dual winner here in 2022, It's Time Again was no match for Captain Jimmy when back in third in the aforementioned race. However, given that the David Barry-trained mare was having her first start in over a year, she might be capable of getting much closer on these revised terms. Mac's Xpress disappointed when sent to Stratford last time but on the balance of his Irish form the Paul Gilligan-trained six-year-old holds claims.

IT'S TIME AGAIN was third to Captain Jimmy at this course last time but that was on the back of an absence so, with a run behind her, she's fancied to turn the tables on that rival in a race that the pair may dominate. Mac's Xpress is also worthy of respect.

A dual course winner over shorter on good ground, IT'S TIME AGAIN can improve enough from her comeback to win again.

1	4 1st (4) (11/10 +20%) Stay If U Want To		1.1 11/10(+20%)																															(4) Stay If U Want To 11/10, Fairly useful bumper winner and promise when runner-up both starts in maiden hurdles at up to 19.7f. Big player back down in trip. Looked to bump into one over further here last time; there won't be any excuses tonight.
2	6 2nd (6) (3/1 +0%) Dirty Den		3 3/1(+0%)																															(6) Dirty Den 3/1, Fair bumper winner who was well beaten in the face of a very stiff task at Aintree on hurdles debut last month. Should make more of an impact at this level. Highly tried since joining this yard; will be interesting to see how he goes in the market.
3	7 3rd (7) (25/1 -233%) Double Dragon		25 25/1(-233%)																															(7) Double Dragon 25/1, Shaped with promise when fourth in a C&D bumper on debut but went backwards at Newbury next time. Makes hurdle bow. Fair bumper debut here in December (behind Dirty Den) but went backwards from that latest.
4	1 4th (1) (7/1 +50%) Home And Dry		7 7/1(+50%)																															(1) Home And Dry 7/1, Fair staying handicapper on Flat who left his hurdling debut behind when fifth of 13 in a C&D novice 23 days ago, albeit well positioned. Better effort at huge price over C&D last time and this is easier if anything; considered.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 +88%) My Friend Sean		12 12/1(+88%)																															(2) My Friend Sean 12/1, Poor form over hurdles, including in handicaps and is up against it on these terms. Turned over as favourite the past twice; more on his plate back into maiden company.
6th	8 6th (8) (8/1 -100%) Ikigai Star		8 8/1(-100%)																															(8) Ikigai Star 8/1, Fairly useful maiden on Flat, stays 1½m. Sold from Joseph Patrick O'Brien 25,000 gns and showed plenty of aptitude for hurdling when fourth of 8 in a juvenile at Fakenham (2m) 36 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Likely to improve. Entitled to have come on for last month's hurdling debut but does need to improve.
7th	3 7th (3) (50/1 -213%) Pub Crawl		50 50/1(-213%)																															(3) Pub Crawl 50/1, Fair maiden handicapper on Flat (stays 1¾m) but was tailed off on most recent outing and possibly best watched on hurdle debut. Regressive maiden on the Flat and needs to improve for the switch to hurdles.
8th	10 8th (10) (22/1 -10%) Auntie Maggie		22 22/1(-10%)																															(10) Auntie Maggie 22/1, €5,500 3-y-o, Pour Moi mare. Dam unraced. Third sole start in Irish points (Mar 3). Looked fine with 3m on heavy ground on her point debut; may want more of a test.
9th	11 9th (11) (300/1 -50%) Miss Arvico		300 300/1(-50%)																															(11) Miss Arvico 300/1, Has shown nothing both starts over hurdles. Huge prices for two runs last month, when achieving very little; remains best watched.
9	9 |PU| (9) (33/1 -267%) Lunanera		33 33/1(-267%)																															(9) Lunanera 33/1, Fair handicapper on Flat, stays 1¼m, respectable effort last time. Could have a say if taking to this new discipline. 1m Flat winner; stamina is a potential issue but Brian Hughes is a positive booking.

The consistent STAY IF U WANT TO has a good chance of building on a couple of second-placed finished over hurdles and, on the back of chasing home a progressive type over an extended 2m3f here in March, the son of Soldier Of Fortune looks well worth a try back down in trip. Ikigai Star showed promise on his hurdles bow at Fakenham last month and warrants a second look, while Pub Crawl and Lunanera represent notable yards on their first starts under NH Rules.

IKIGAI STAR shaped second best on his Fakenham hurdling debut last month and, with improvement on the cards, is selected to open his account at the second attempt in this sphere. Stay If U Want To has found only one too good on both his starts over hurdles and is an obvious threat back down in trip, while Dirty Den should make more of an impact in these much calmer waters.

Preference is for HOME AND DRY, who's generally done well since returning from a long absence, latterly in a stronger novice over C&D.

1	10 1st (10) (10/1 -67%) My Virtue		10 10/1(-67%)																															(10) My Virtue 10/1, Poor form, although his best run did come when third in this race 12 months ago. First start since December. Third in this last year and only seen once since in a novice event when 100-1.
2	1 2nd (1) (15/2 -50%) Ascension Day		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(1) Ascension Day 15/2, Looked all set to record a big-priced debut win under Rules only to run out late on at Worcester last summer. Placed in maiden hurdles here this spring and should be up to making an impact from this opening mark. Should have won by now but doesn't look progressive; handicap debut.
3	7 3rd (7) (33/1 +0%) Royal Max		33 33/1(+0%)																															(7) Royal Max 33/1, Modest form at best for Nicky Henderson and has shown little for current yard. Pulled up in handicaps over hurdles and fences the last twice when big odds.
4	8 4th (8) (5/1 -43%) Chemical Warfare		5 5/1(-43%)																															(8) Chemical Warfare 5/1, Won over fences at Newcastle for Tjade Collier last May and placed over hurdles later that month. Has had wind surgery ahead of this first outing for new yard after 10 months off. Interesting runner, particularly if backed. Chase winner for previous yard; had wind surgery ahead of this stable debut.
5th	9 5th (9) (22/1 -38%) Eric Carmen		22 22/1(-38%)																															(9) Eric Carmen 22/1, A fair maiden in Ireland but no show in 4 outings for this yard since returning from a long absence. Placed over hurdles in Ireland in summer 2022 but has lost his way badly; opposable.
6th	3 6th (3) (11/8 +93%) Tessy Lad		1.375 11/8(+93%)																															(3) Tessy Lad 11/8, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1½m) who was placed in a pair of juvenile hurdles for Richard Hughes in 2022/23 but struggled in 3 handicap hurdles for this yard over the winter. Also last of 6 back on the Flat here 6 weeks ago. Tongue strap reached for now. Could only consider if backed. Yet to find his form under either code since changing bases and now tongue-tied.
7th	6 7th (6) (28/1 -75%) Dazzling Dove		28 28/1(-75%)																															(6) Dazzling Dove 28/1, Good second over 20.5f here in March 2023 but it's been downhill since. Remains to be seen whether a drop back in trip helps to spark a revival. 16-race maiden but her second here in March of last year on good to soft isn't forgotten.
8th	2 8th (2) (7/1 -155%) Mersey Street		7 7/1(-155%)																															(2) Mersey Street 7/1, Second in an Irish point and has shown promise in bumpers/over hurdles. Appeals as a likely improver in handicaps. Market confidence could prove significant. Pleasing run at Taunton latest and he's one to be interested in on handicap debut.
5	5 |PU| (5) (17/2 -143%) Marrakushi		8.5 17/2(-143%)																															(5) Marrakushi 17/2, Well held in bumper/maiden hurdle for David Pipe but more encouraging signs for this yard in 2 juveniles around the turn of the year. Makes handicap debut back from 105 days off. Has shown more in his runs for this yard in races won by useful novices; h'cap debut.
4	4 |PU| (4) (28/1 -12%) No Mean Feat		28 28/1(-12%)																															(4) No Mean Feat 28/1, Pulled up sole start in points and just poor form to over hurdles. Pulled up on chase debut latest (final start for Alexandra Dunn. Does have experience in handicaps but they're nothing to shout about.

In a moderate event it is hard to oppose ASCENSION DAY, who was second in maiden hurdle over C&D a month ago, albeit well held. A reproduction of that form would give him a big chance on his handicap debut here. Mersey Street was not disgraced at Taunton last time and may have more to offer, while similar comments apply to Marrakushi.

The suggestion is the O'Neill stable handicap newcomer MERSEY STREET, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Chemical Welfare is a potentially dangerous opponent on his first outing for David Pipe and is another for whom market strength could prove significant. Handicap newcomers Marrakushi and Ascension Day are others who could have a say.

He's been off for 105 days but MARRAKUSHI has shown enough in two non-handicaps for this yard to believe he might not be on a bad mark.

1	2 1st (2) (15/8 -50%) Coillte Aris		1.875 15/8(-50%)																															(2) Coillte Aris 15/8, Creditable third of 16 in handicap hurdle (9/4) at Naas (19.3f, soft) 21 days ago. Arrives in good order and isn't fully exposed, so leading claims. Solid efforts in defeat last twice over shorter and step-up in trip could suit; player.
2	11 2nd (11) (66/1 -100%) Roscomroe		66 66/1(-100%)																															(11) Roscomroe 66/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap chase at Thurles (20.5f, soft, 50/1). Off 6 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces back on. Unplaced on all starts and isn't easy to fancy.
3	6 3rd (6) (50/1 -52%) Sineads Fancy		50 50/1(-52%)																															(6) Sineads Fancy 50/1, 200/1, tenth of 16 in novice hurdle at Limerick (20f, heavy) 132 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Little to show for four maiden hurdle runs; hood on for handicap debut.
4	8 4th (8) (12/1 -71%) Bearwithmenow		12 12/1(-71%)																															(8) Bearwithmenow 12/1, First run since leaving J. P. Flavin when fell in handicap chase at Downpatrick (23.5f, soft, 16/1). Off 7 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Rejoined yard after leaving E. Sheehy. Worth monitoring in the betting. Hurdle winner in 2022 has fallen last three over fences; has to be ready on return.
5th	4 5th (4) (4/1 +67%) Young Fitzy		4 4/1(+67%)																															(4) Young Fitzy 4/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. Fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at this course (17.6f, soft, 40/1) 18 days ago. Up in trip. Not completely dismissed. Dual hurdle winner has run well enough in this sphere last few starts and has a squeak.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/1 +0%) Song For My Father		9 9/1(+0%)																															(1) Song For My Father 9/1, 9/1, respectable seventh of 14 in novice chase at Thurles (18.3f, soft). Off 6 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Well beaten over fences when last seen but has shown some ability over hurdles.
7th	5 7th (5) (8/1 +60%) Rising Dust		8 8/1(+60%)																															(5) Rising Dust 8/1, 12/1, bit below form tenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (22.4f, soft) 84 days ago. Others make more appeal. Soundly beaten in handicaps on testing ground lately but this surface can suit better.
8th	10 8th (10) (18/1 +64%) Clyde The Glide		18 18/1(+64%)																															(10) Clyde The Glide 18/1, Tenth of 14 in handicap hurdle (125/1) at Punchestown (20f, heavy) 99 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Others make more appeal. Unplaced on all starts and isn't easy to fancy.
7	7 |PU| (7) (7/1 -75%) Any Day Now		7 7/1(-75%)																															(7) Any Day Now 7/1, 20/1, won 14-runner handicap hurdle at Sligo (20f, soft), always holding on. Off 6 months. Cheekpieces back on. Solid claims in a weak race if he's fully tuned up. Got off the mark at Sligo last October; 6lb higher but has run well fresh before.
3	3 |PU| (3) (10/1 -82%) Suile Ban		10 10/1(-82%)																															(3) Suile Ban 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1, respectable sixth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.2f, heavy). Off 7 months. Rejoined yard after leaving Adrian Brendan Joyce. Soundly beaten in two handicaps last autumn but is lightly raced so could do better.
9	9 |PU| (9) (17/2 +39%) U Asking Me		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(9) U Asking Me 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (20.2f, good to soft). Off 8 months. Tongue strap on 1st time, cheekpieces on 1st time. Mark demands more. Point winner has shown a glimpse of ability over hurdles; has to be ready on return.

COILLTE ARIS, who went close in two stronger races at Naas recently, can get off the mark. The Sonny Carey-trained mare takes a further step up in trip, something that her breeding suggests should suit. Having had just the six starts in her career, she remains open to progression this season. Any Day Now was a winner at Sligo when last seen back in October. The 6lb rise subsequently inflicted by the handicapper is largely offset by Liam Quinlan claiming 5lb here. Former Listowel bumper runner-up Song For My Father reverts to hurdling here after two starts over fences. The Ross O'Sullivan-trained gelding had some decent maiden runs that would give him a chance of sorts in this lesser company.

COILLTE ARIS arrives in good form and there could be more to come, so she's comfortably the most appealing in a race where most have something to prove. Any Day Now is the obvious danger 6 months on from scoring at Sligo and Bearwithmenow is of interest if the market speaks in his favour.

COILLTE ARIS has been looking like a step up in trip would suit and she can make the breakthrough today.

1	10 1st (10) (16/5 +29%) Big Blue Moon		3.2 16/5(+29%)																															(10) Big Blue Moon 16/5, Promising start in handicap hurdles last spring and left pair of tame efforts well behind when winning 8-runner Warwick handicap (19f) 12 days ago, well suited by return to less testing conditions. Claims from 4 lb higher if arriving in same form. Looked ahead of his mark when 2m3f winner latest; bold bid likely despite 4lb rise.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 -27%) Notnowlinda		7 7/1(-27%)																															(5) Notnowlinda 7/1, Runner-up twice over fences in the autumn and came good back hurdling under today's pilot here (2m, soft) in March. Did well to make the frame after an early error when fourth in stronger affair at Cheltenham since and respected again in this groove. In good form at 2m and 2m4f on last two starts; another solid show expected.
3	8 3rd (8) (3/1 +45%) Soldierofthestorm		3 3/1(+45%)																															(8) Soldierofthestorm 3/1, Firmly back on track and justified good support in the process when landing a C&D handicap in February. Not disgraced faced with a stamina test when third at Newbury (20.5f, heavy) in March and he's been given time ahead of this. Impressive C&D winner in February; tougher test next time; can be given another chance.
4	2 4th (2) (12/1 -260%) My Chiquita		12 12/1(-260%)																															(2) My Chiquita 12/1, Fair handicapper on Flat and winner of both starts over hurdles in October, namely a Sedgefield maiden and novice event at Wetherby (both at around this trip). Recent spin on the level will ensure that she's not found wanting fitness-wise and she's of interest now handicapping. Two Flat wins; wide-margin winner of both hurdles at 2m4f; interesting on handicap debut.
5th	9 5th (9) (9/2 +63%) Cabhfuilfungi		4.5 9/2(+63%)																															(9) Cabhfuilfungi 9/2, Fair form when landing a Southwell maiden (20.4f) last spring for Gary Hanmer and shaped up well on debut for present stable when 6 lengths second of 5 over extended 21f here 4 weeks ago. Ease back in trip will help on that evidence and he could have a bit more to offer. Looked promising when 2m4f maiden winner last May; can improve on recent 2nd for new yard.
6th	11 6th (11) (40/1 -60%) Just Go For It		40 40/1(-60%)																															(11) Just Go For It 40/1, At the veteran stage now but she was better than ever when landing 14-runner handicap at Taunton (19f, soft) in March. Good third at Wincanton later that month but never figured in face of stiffer task at Cheltenham (20.2f) 3 weeks ago. Easy 2m3f winner in March but a 10lb rise has made life hard for her since.
7th	1 7th (1) (25/1 -213%) Soldat Forte		25 25/1(-213%)																															(1) Soldat Forte 25/1, Fair form in bumpers and well prepared to make a successful hurdles debut at Southwell 12 months ago. Similar form equipped with a tongue tie when runner-up next 3 starts in novice company last summer but absent since so interesting what the market makes of him now handicapping. Good efforts in defeat at up to 2m4f since winning hurdle debut; off since July.
3	3 |F| (3) (18/1 -100%) Sacchoandvanzetti		18 18/1(-100%)																															(3) Sacchoandvanzetti 18/1, Fair winning hurdler in Ireland for John Queally and made the frame on first 3 starts over hurdles upon joining Fergal O'Brien last summer. Lines up here fit from a couple of spins on the Flat and no reason why he won't give a good account back over hurdles. Two hurdle wins in Ireland in 2019; fair form for yard but below best on latest hurdle run.
4	4 |U| (4) (11/1 -47%) Just Loose Change		11 11/1(-47%)																															(4) Just Loose Change 11/1, Dual winner in novice handicap hurdles last season and in good heart around the turn of the year, again strong at the finish when fourth at Taunton (19f) in January. Possible he could do better again, including when tackling further. Hurdle wins at 2m3f and 2m4f; back in form in midwinter; can be involved.
7	7 |PU| (7) (22/1 +12%) Silver Shade		22 22/1(+12%)																															(7) Silver Shade 22/1, Dual Flat winner who made a good start over hurdles, winning 2 of his 4 starts in juvenile hurdles in 2022. Well held on handicap debut/final start that year and betting may bet guide as to expectations now starting out for new yard following 19 months off. Won 2 juvenile hurdles in early 2022; off since well held in October 2022; new yard.
6	6 |PU| (6) (28/1 -75%) Throne Hall		28 28/1(-75%)																															(6) Throne Hall 28/1, Useful sort at his best on Flat and ran best race for some time in that sphere when a 10-length winner at Doncaster (11.9f) in March. Well held last of 3 at Pontefract subsequently and not the easiest to weigh up returned to this sphere. Wide-margin 1m4f winner in March; laboured after; should be well treated back hurdling.

BIG BLUE MOON has a good chance to prove that his Warwick success was not a one-off performance and, with only slightly longer yardage and similar underfoot conditions forecast, a 4lb higher mark might not be enough to prevent Tom Lacey's representative from following up. My Chiquita is an obvious threat back under this code and is likely to give a good account in her bid to extend her unbeaten record over hurdles, while Notnowlinda is also a big threat now she drops back down in class.

This looks competitive but MY CHIQUITA looked one to keep onside when winning a brace of maiden/novice hurdles late last year and, with a recent spin on the Flat likely to have put her spot on for this, she looks a live player on handicap debut. Cabhfuilfungi, Big Blue Moon and Notnowlinda are a trio of others with reasons to recommend them and head up the dangers.

This is open but CABHFUILFUNGI gets the vote back on more suitable ground after an encouraging debut for Kerry Lee.

1	5 1st (5) (16/5 -167%) Therapist		3.2 16/5(-167%)																															(5) Therapist 16/5, Fairly useful Flat winner for Andrew Balding. Has shown a bit over hurdles and these less testing conditions sure to suit now handicapping after 3 months off. Hereford form has worked out well; that was on soft and yet best Flat form was on good.
2	1 2nd (1) (10/3 +26%) Jumping Jupiter		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(1) Jumping Jupiter 10/3, Placed twice over these brush hurdles and one to note on debut for Mark Walford down in the weights back from 4 months off. Poor last time but possibilities on peak efforts and has changed yards.
3	10 3rd (10) (6/1 +57%) Northern Rose		6 6/1(+57%)																															(10) Northern Rose 6/1, Poor maiden who made more impact than previously at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago despite again being out of the handicap and failing to impress with her technique over the hurdles. Can't be supported for the win. Placed last time but was beaten 8l and she's still a maiden; opposable.
4	3 4th (3) (18/1 -80%) Illucidate		18 18/1(-80%)																															(3) Illucidate 18/1, Fair ex-French Flat winner who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests in 2m Fakenham juvenile hurdle 5 weeks ago, though she didn't finish with much gusto considering she was arriving following a breathing operation. Handicap debut. Looks held by Therapist but did raise her game in defeat last time at Fakenham.
5th	4 5th (4) (33/1 -230%) Common Acclaim		33 33/1(-230%)																															(4) Common Acclaim 33/1, Fair maiden handicapper on Flat. Similar form when reaching the frame in juvenile hurdles before Christmas and looks on a feasible mark for this first handicap over hurdles. Beaten a long way on all four starts over hurdles but this is his handicap debut.
6th	9 6th (9) (15/2 +6%) Orbys River		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(9) Orbys River 15/2, Poor maiden hurdler although ran well again when second at Uttoxeter (2m, heavy) last month. Should win one of these before long. Things have started to look up of late and she chased home a likeable type at Uttoxeter.
7th	8 7th (8) (15/2 +25%) Duneomeno		7.5 15/2(+25%)																															(8) Duneomeno 15/2, Maiden hurdler who offered some promise back from 18 months off at Ludlow in February, but well supported back over fences (winning chaser) at Huntingdon 7 weeks ago and well beaten. Cheekpieces go on. Chasing doesn't appear to float his boat and the last run over hurdles was encouraging.
2	2 |B| (2) (13/2 +7%) Platenium		6.5 13/2(+7%)																															(2) Platenium 13/2, Has shown a bit in bumpers/2m novice hurdles and could do better now handicapping, although opening mark probably not generous. Tongue tie goes on. Disappointing should he fail to raise his game at this level on handicap debut.
7	7 |F| (7) (12/1 +40%) Harry Gulliver		12 12/1(+40%)																															(7) Harry Gulliver 12/1, Well held in bumper (hooded) and little show in maiden hurdles. Makes handicap debut after 139 days off. Just one half-respectable effort; handicapped accordingly but has much to prove.
6	6 |F| (6) (125/1 -279%) Gladys Eva Jane		125 125/1(-279%)																															(6) Gladys Eva Jane 125/1, Fair form in bumpers for Peter Bowen (sold £5,000) but little promise over hurdles, looking ungenuine. Handicap debut. Placed in bumpers but huge odds over hurdles and has achieved little; h'cap debut.

Therapist has yet to show her Flat form over hurdles but cannot be discounted on her first start in a handicap. That said, preference is for ORBYS RIVER, who has filled second place off this mark on two of her last three starts and this appears to be an ideal opportunity to go one better. Others to note are Common Acclaim, Illucidate and Duneomeno.

Tricky stuff with JUMPING JUPITER chanced on his first start for Mark Walford having been placed twice here for his previous trainer. Therapist could be well ahead of her mark now handicapping in this sphere for Nicky Henderson, while Orbys River can win a race like this.

The outstanding candidate is THERAPIST (nap) who, considering her Flat ability, is potentially thrown in for her handicap debut.

Creditable seventh of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (16.8f, heavy, 10/1) 53 days ago. Third in Grade 2 novice on previous chase start. Hard to beat. Grade 1 hurdle winner was 3rd in Grade 2 novice only chase start; very difficult to beat.
5th	7 5th (7) (18/1 +28%) Gorgeous Suspect		18 18/1(+28%)																															(7) Gorgeous Suspect 18/1, Fairly useful hurdler. One win from 3 runs last season. 11/4, running creditably when fell in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, soft). Off 6 months. Switches from hurdles to chase.

Former Grade 1 winning hurdler ZENTA can strike on just her second start over fences. The Willie Mullins-trained five-year-old shaped with plenty of promise when third in a Grade 2 Novice Chase in Cork before Christmas. The ex-French trained filly will find this assignment much easier, while the better ground should also be in her favour. Magnor Glory, a winner here over hurdles, looks one of the chief dangers. The Terence O'Brien-trained gelding had some smart form over flights last season, including when runner-up in a Listed race at Killarney. Provided he takes to the larger obstacles, the eight-year-old can get competitive. Charlie Luciano, who made all when winning here last August, has also proven his ability to handle this track.

ZENTA jumped well enough when third on her Cork chase debut in December to think she can translate all of her very useful hurdle ability to fences so she should prove a tough nut to crack here. Like the selection, Magnor Glory has some useful form over hurdles and might provide the chief threat if taking to this new discipline. Extrapolation looks best of the remainder.

A classy hurdler, ZENTA is the top-rated of this field in that sphere, so should take plenty of beating on her second chase start

1	5 1st (5) (5/4 +29%) Cooleenymore		1.25 5/4(+29%)																															(5) Cooleenymore 5/4, Emphatic winner on second run over fences at Exeter (3m) last month and good second to unexposed one back over hurdles there 3 weeks ago, the pair clear. Strong stayer and big shout up 4 lb. Beat 2 finishers in 3m chase in April; bumped into one over hurdles since; up 4lb.
2	3 2nd (3) (15/2 -50%) Mistral Nell		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(3) Mistral Nell 15/2, Got off the mark over hurdles in 14-runner handicap at Catterick (19f, good to soft) in December, digging deep. Shaped as if still in good form at Huntingdon next time, an exceptionally wide trip perhaps taking its toll late on. Upped markedly in trip back from 3 months off now. Back up 7lb for narrow 2m3f win in December and faded next time; new trip is a query.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/1 +42%) Mollie Brown		7 7/1(+42%)																															(6) Mollie Brown 7/1, Well held in bumpers/completed starts over hurdles (off 4 months, had breathing operation prior to latest run in handicap). Improvement needed. Hinted at ability last spring; minor form on soft ground since but open to improvement.
4	8 4th (8) (7/1 +65%) Joyful Kit		7 7/1(+65%)																															(8) Joyful Kit 7/1, Long-standing maiden who typically gives her running. Likely to give it another good go while proving vulnerable. Placed on last 6 completions at 2m3f-3m1f but has yet to win; others more likely.
5th	1 5th (1) (11/2 -22%) Minniemum		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(1) Minniemum 11/2, Free-goer who was a good second over 3m at Doncaster in December. Looked all set to go one better when unseating her rider at the last at Catterick following month but pulled up with a breathing problem at Southwell next time. Back from 3 months off now. Luckless unseat when clear 2 starts ago (3m1f, soft); pulled up since; could revive.
6th	7 6th (7) (16/1 -60%) Ellies Sister		16 16/1(-60%)																															(7) Ellies Sister 16/1, Runner-up on second of 2 starts in bumpers. Little form over hurdles but from a good family and starts out in handicaps at a low level. Showed promise in a bumper; minor hurdle form so far but can do better now handicapping.
7th	2 7th (2) (11/1 -214%) Chatshow Host		11 11/1(-214%)																															(2) Chatshow Host 11/1, Dual Irish point winner who will make up into a chaser. Fair form over hurdles and this sort of trip should suit on handicap debut. Won 2 Irish points; made progress over hurdles in Britain; better chance now handicapping.
4	4 |PU| (4) (33/1 -175%) Tara Line		33 33/1(-175%)																															(4) Tara Line 33/1, Irish points winner who landed weak 3-runner novice hurdle at Leicester (20.5f, 10/3) in November 2022. Pulled up at Wincanton (race run in thick fog) following month and absent since. Upped markedly in trip for handicap debut. Winning Irish pointer; won British/hurdle debut; off since late 2022; handicap debut.

COOLEENYMORE may not have been able to land the double at Exeter last month, but she has the potential to improve for going up in trip and looks the one to beat for a stable that has a good record here. A determined winner at Catterick on her penultimate start, Mistral Nell must enter calculations, along with Chatshow Host, who has been runner-up on two of her last three starts.

COOLEENYMORE continues in top form and can get off the mark over hurdles. Mistral Nell could be the main danger ahead of Chatshow Host and Ellies Sister.

Cooleenymore holds solid claims again but MOLLIE BROWN can fulfil the promise she showed in maiden company last spring.

1	7 1st (7) (13/2 -18%) Pozo Emery		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(7) Pozo Emery 13/2, Promising novice hurdler for Paul Nicholls in 2021. Pulled up in 2 chase starts for new yard since returning from a long absence but back on track (to an extent) since returned to this sphere and recent C&D third off this mark was his best effort for so far for present connections. Made the frame over C&D two weeks ago with the visor back on.
2	5 2nd (5) (15/2 +38%) The Big Lense		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(5) The Big Lense 15/2, Clearly more effective over the larger obstacles, as he demonstrated when landing a handicap chase at Aintree off a 14 lb higher mark last summer. Largely below par in hunters since, though, and his record in this sphere does not augur well, for all that he's potentially well treated. Has his ground again but a better chaser who has never been as good over hurdles.
3	9 3rd (9) (20/1 -67%) Mcgowan's Pass		20 20/1(-67%)																															(9) Mcgowan's Pass 20/1, It's now 18 runs since last win in 2020 but this veteran was placed on several occasions last year prior to misfiring at Bangor when last seen 8 months ago. Resumes on a 4 lb lower mark and certainly wouldn't be without each-way hope if fully wound-up for this assignment. Consistent enough but this veteran is on a losing run and hasn't been seen since August.
4	11 4th (11) (14/1 +30%) Malina Ocarina		14 14/1(+30%)																															(11) Malina Ocarina 14/1, Landed a gamble over this C&D last May but mixed bag since and she turned in a poor effort at Hereford when last seen in January. C&D winner a year ago but nothing positive to take from her last three appearances.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/4 -22%) Solar System		2.75 11/4(-22%)																															(8) Solar System 11/4, Clear signs of ability in a couple of maiden hurdles and has predictably improved since switched to handicaps, third at Taunton in March prior to opening his account in good style with a hood enlisted (retained here) at Fontwell (17.7f, good to firm). This 6 lb higher mark should be within reach. Lightly raced and won his second handicap comfortably at Fontwell (good).
6th	10 6th (10) (11/1 +45%) Gieves		11 11/1(+45%)																															(10) Gieves 11/1, Hooded for first time when winning a 2m novice hurdle by 19 lengths at Worcester in September. However, his mark inevitably suffered as a result of that wide-margin success and he was beaten a fair way in the Fontwell handicap won by Solar System last month. Only win was in a maiden when hooded; plenty to find with Solar System on latest run.
7th	4 7th (4) (5/1 -67%) Fierce Warrior		5 5/1(-67%)																															(4) Fierce Warrior 5/1, Bumper winner who left hurdles debut effort behind (looked wayward going right-handed that day) back on a left-handed course at Plumpton where he won a 20.5f maiden in pretty decisive fashion. No show over same C&D since but yard was under a cloud at that point and merits respect now handicapping. Record of 2-5; will like the ground and should be competitive off this sort of mark.
8th	6 8th (6) (6/1 -9%) Allbetsoff		6 6/1(-9%)																															(6) Allbetsoff 6/1, Bagged his third win of 2023 in 6-runner Huntingdon claimer (15.8f, good to soft) in November. Well held back in handicap company over the same C&D next time but resumed from a break with a much better effort over this C&D a fortnight ago and he's a live each-way candidate. Pleasing fourth after an absence here two weeks ago; could be sharper and knows how to win.
9th	3 9th (3) (22/1 -57%) On Springs		22 22/1(-57%)																															(3) On Springs 22/1, Not entirely straightforward but thrived during summer of 2022, winning 4 times over fences, and added to his tally when landing a small-field handicap chase at Doncaster last February. However, well held when last seen just over 12 months ago and record stands at 0-7 in this sphere. 0-7 over hurdles and yet he's a five-time chaser winner; off for 13 months.
1	1 |F| (1) (11/1 +21%) No Thanks		11 11/1(+21%)																															(1) No Thanks 11/1, Regained the winning thread in a handicap hurdle Ballinrobe for Matthew J. Smith last summer but unseated sole subsequent start in this sphere and below par on the Flat the last twice. On a stiff-looking mark for this yard debut following a break and others preferred. Proven winner and Fergal O'Brien might get his competitive juices flowing again.
10th	2 10th (2) (33/1 +0%) Witness Protection		33 33/1(+0%)																															(2) Witness Protection 33/1, Dual hurdles winner who made it third time lucky over fences at Chepstow in November 2021. Lightly raced and well below par since, though, and the return to this sphere failed to spark a return to form at Cheltenham last month. Never counted on his belated return to hurdling at Cheltenham last month when 125-1.

SOLAR SYSTEM scored by just over two lengths in a class 5 event at Fontwell last month and he only has a 6lb higher mark to contend with. The son of Pastorius makes only his third handicap start and he could have plenty more to offer. The main danger is Fierce Warrior, who is a bumper/maiden hurdle winner making his handicap debut off a workable mark of 110, while Allbetsoff is another to note.

Low-mileage 5-y-os SOLAR SYSTEM and Fierce Warrior could be the pair to concentrate on and preference is for the former, who settled much better in a first-time hood when scoring in good style at Fontwell and neither this 6 lb higher mark nor the step back up in trip are likely to be an issue. It's best to draw a line through Fierce Warrior's latest effort given that his yard was enduring a torrid time of things at that point and he is clear second choice ahead of Pozo Emery and Allbetsoff.

The 5yo SOLAR SYSTEM settled better in the hood at Fontwell and he duly produced a much-improved performance. He can go in again.

1	4 1st (4) (22/1 -83%) Je T'ai Porte		22 22/1(-83%)																															(4) Je T'ai Porte 22/1, Fairly useful winner at 11f on flat. Below form fourth of 8 in handicap chase at Cheltenham (16.3f, good, 12/1) 19 days ago. Too keen in Cheltenham mares' handicap on latest; improvement needed.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/1 -157%) Mister Wilson		9 9/1(-157%)																															(6) Mister Wilson 9/1, Fairly useful winner at 9f on flat. Excellent fifth of 13 in novice chase (17/2) at Tipperary (16.5f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut. Bit to find on handicap debut but yard in such good form has to be considered.
3	3 3rd (3) (13/2 +7%) Great Bear		6.5 13/2(+7%)																															(3) Great Bear 13/2, Creditable fifth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (16.4f, good, 28/1). Off 6 months. Switches from hurdles to chase. Makes handicap chase debut. Has to be taken seriously. First handicap chase and drying ground to suit but needs to jump better than at Listowel.
4	11 4th (11) (3/1 +40%) Whatsafellatodo		3 3/1(+40%)																															(11) Whatsafellatodo 3/1, Course winner. One win from 2 runs last season. 10/1, third of 19 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft). Off 9 months. Switches from hurdles to chase. Not taken lightly. Comeback winner here over a year ago; clearly runs well fresh.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +45%) Battle Of Ridgeway		5.5 11/2(+45%)																															(5) Battle Of Ridgeway 11/2, Bit below form fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 11/4) 26 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Beaten favourite off lower hurdles mark of late but not one to rule out back over fences.
6th	2 6th (2) (25/1 -79%) Vado Forte		25 25/1(-79%)																															(2) Vado Forte 25/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Fifth of 6 in handicap chase at Cork (16.7f, heavy, 9/1) 36 days ago. Others more persuasive. Veteran probably not the force he was but handicapper giving him every chance.
7th	10 7th (10) (10/3 +33%) Petit King		3.333333 10/3(+33%)																															(10) Petit King 10/3, 16/1, creditable third of 18 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 36 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Makes handicap chase debut. Should have more to offer. First handicap chase off 4lb lower mark so respected although won't want too much drying.
8	8 |F| (8) (17/2 -6%) Henning		8.5 17/2(-6%)																															(8) Henning 17/2, Fairly useful winner at 19f over hurdles. Creditable sixth of 10 in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (17.3f, heavy, 9/2) 101 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Beaten favourite on handicap bow in January; remains potentially well-handicapped.
7	7 |U| (7) (18/1 +28%) Desert Friend		18 18/1(+28%)																															(7) Desert Friend 18/1, Below form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle (17/2) at Limerick (16.2f, heavy) 44 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Makes handicap chase debut. First run over fences since last summer, initial mark looks okay.
9	9 |U| (9) (33/1 +0%) Presenting Lad		33 33/1(+0%)																															(9) Presenting Lad 33/1, Fair winner at 17f over hurdles. 66/1, below form eighth of 13 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (16.5f, soft), finishing with running left. Off 7 months. Makes handicap chase debut. Hurdles winner here; too keen when last seen over fences.
1	1 |PU| (1) (16/1 -167%) Le Musigny		16 16/1(-167%)																															(1) Le Musigny 16/1, Useful chaser. Respectable third of 11 in handicap chase at Killarney (17f, good, 7/2) when last seen in July 2021. Betting the best guide to expectations after such a long time off. Long absent 10yo absent since July 2021 but has a touch of class at this level.
13	13 |PU| (13) (33/1 +0%) Ricky Langford		33 33/1(+0%)																															(13) Ricky Langford 33/1, C&D winner. Latest win in hurdle at Cork in August.

The Denis Hogan-trained HENNING is sure to be well primed for this first visit to her owners local track. The seven-year-old, who is a three-time winner over hurdles, can race off a 9lb lower mark in this discipline. The fact that the daughter of Rock Of Gibraltar ran her best race over fences on her reappearance augers well on this return from another break. A winner here over hurdles, Presenting Lad commands plenty respect given his liking for the track. It would be no surprise to see the Mark McNiff-trained gelding take a step forward on his two previous runs over fences. At the foot of the weights, Ricky Langford catches the eye for the in-form Philip Rothwell yard.

MISTER WILSON is of some interest now handicapping for the first time over fences and gets the nod for the Gavin Cromwell team. Petit King is another who catches the eye now moving into his first handicap over fences and is second choice ahead of Henry de Bromhead's Great Bear.

Likely drying ground will suit the veteran WHATSAFELLATODO who won here around this time last year after a long absence

1	9 1st (9) (6/1 +20%) Can't Beat History		6 6/1(+20%)																															(9) Can't Beat History 6/1, Made second chase start a winning one at Market Rasen (21.4f) last summer, dominating. Excuses next 2 starts before resuming winning ways over C&D when last seen in October. Player if ready to go. Improver last autumn once switched to fences, latterly winning easily over C&D; player.
2	3 2nd (3) (5/1 +58%) Seigneur Des As		5 5/1(+58%)																															(3) Seigneur Des As 5/1, Won over fences at Ludlow (23.8f) for Milton Harris but lightly raced since. Better for belated return (for another yard) when fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (21.4f, good, 40/1) 16 days ago. Not taken lightly back over fences. Offered little in two runs over hurdles back from almost a year off, latterly for new yard.
3	6 3rd (6) (3/1 +10%) Pilot Show		3 3/1(+10%)																															(6) Pilot Show 3/1, In good form earlier last season, runner-up on 3 consecutive starts (at up to 26f). Pulled up next 2 outings but back to form when second under this rider over C&D last month. Respected. Two C&D seconds in recent times give him claims with any rain likely to work in his favour.
4	1 4th (1) (17/2 -42%) Heaven Smart		8.5 17/2(-42%)																															(1) Heaven Smart 17/2, Proved a different proposition under new tactics and in a change of headgear when making all at Kempton (3m, soft) but well held when unseated rider at Newbury next time and got no further than the fourth at Chepstow since. Should be happier back round an easy, right-handed track having unseated the past twice.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 -22%) Off To A Flyer		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(5) Off To A Flyer 11/2, Successful over hurdles at Ayr last spring but below that level switched to chasing on his last 4 starts, in first-time tongue strap (also had wind op) when fifth of 6 at Taunton last time. Wildly inconsistent, again running below market expectations back from wind surgery latest.
4	4 |PU| (4) (9/1 -13%) Pottlerath		9 9/1(-13%)																															(4) Pottlerath 9/1, Successful 3 times over hurdles during 2022 and sprouted wings over fences at the start of last summer, completing a hat-trick at Bangor. Winless since, however, and well held last 2 starts after 5 months off. Good record in the spring; out of form this time round but woulnd't rule out a revival.
10	10 |PU| (10) (14/1 +65%) Family Pot		14 14/1(+65%)																															(10) Family Pot 14/1, Dual scorer (at up to 25.2f) at this course 15 month ago but has been more miss than hit since (well held last 3 starts). 9 lb out of weights. Hard to recommend on recent efforts running from 9lb out of the handicap.
2	2 |PU| (2) (17/2 -143%) Gazette Bourgeoise		8.5 17/2(-143%)																															(2) Gazette Bourgeoise 17/2, Yet to score in 8 starts over fences but probably should have won when beaten only a nose on return from 8 months off at Ffos Las (21.5f) in December. Excuses on her next 2 outings before unseated back over hurdles latest. Player back down in class. Lacks consistency but having the headgear back on for this return to fences should help.
8	8 |PU| (8) (20/1 +0%) Brave Starlight		20 20/1(+0%)																															(8) Brave Starlight 20/1, Winning Irish pointer. Placed on 2 of his 3 starts in hunters but no show on hurdles debut and no better back chasing at Doncaster. Now returning from a further 6 months off. Irish point winner; has been off for six months since two poor efforts last autumn.
7	7 |PU| (7) (25/1 -178%) Dentley De Mee		25 25/1(-178%)																															(7) Dentley De Mee 25/1, Made a solid start for this yard when second on 3 consecutive occasions but below par last 2 starts 12 months apart. Entitled to need his March comeback following a year off; should do better tonight.

A slightly unlucky second over C&D last month when hampered by a faller two out, PILOT SHOW could be primed to strike for the first time since December 2022. Warren Greatrex's charge has been dropped another pound for that effort and that may be enough to see off the returning Can't Beat History, who could not have won an easier over C&D last October. Gazette Bourgeoise and Heaven Smart have the form to get involved in proceedings as well.

CAN'T BEAT HISTORY resumed progress when scoring over C&D when last seen in October and should have a big say if tuned up. Pilot Show should be thereabouts again with Gazette Bourgeoise another to consider.

C&D winner CAN'T BEAT HISTORY (nap) can pick up where he left off last autumn and defy a 9lb rise. Pilot Show is second best.

1	1 1st (1) (40/1 -21%) Aquitaine Boy		40 40/1(-21%)																															(1) Aquitaine Boy 40/1, Little impact in various race-types for James Ewart and can only be watched on the back of a monster absence. No wins in nine and tried chasing the once; lowly rated and returns from a mammoth absence.
2	5 2nd (5) (8/11 +51%) Mostly Sunny		0.727273 8/11(+51%)																															(5) Mostly Sunny 8/11, Fairly useful handicapper on the Flat for Heather Main, successful at Kempton (1½m) when last seen in January (sold for 32,000 gns the following month). Stamina won't be a problem now switched to hurdles (effective at up to 2m on the level) and he has to be of interest on debut for the Skelton team. Three Flat wins from 1m4f to 2m and of useful ability; joined top yard for hurdling.
3	2 3rd (2) (13/2 -160%) Eaton Anne		6.5 13/2(-160%)																															(2) Eaton Anne 13/2, Half-brother to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser Gates of Rome and fairly useful hurdler/chaser Cooldine Bog. Successful sole start between the flags in November and very much one to note on Rules debut. Bought for £25,000 after winning an Irish point in November and the second has won since.
4	3 4th (3) (28/1 -133%) Hiero Sport		28 28/1(-133%)																															(3) Hiero Sport 28/1, Out of a fairly useful jumper and shaped with plenty of promise when second in Market Rasen bumper on debut last spring. However, he hasn't shown much in a couple of runs over hurdles. Has finished tailed off and pulled up in his two hurdles, stopping quickly.
5th	6 5th (6) (7/4 -7%) New Order		1.75 7/4(-7%)																															(6) New Order 7/4, Got off the mark in Irish points at second attempt and runner-up on 2 of his 4 subsequent starts in this sphere, including when returning from a break in a big-field Market Rasen maiden (20.6f, good to soft) last month. Should make a bold bid, provided this drop in trip doesn't count against him. Beaten 2l by the right horse at Market Rasen and looks sure to have a big say in this.
6th	9 6th (9) (40/1 +20%) Darting Rose		40 40/1(+20%)																															(9) Darting Rose 40/1, From a family connections know well and she showed plenty on debut in a bumper here last spring. However, she hasn't gone on from that since and was well beaten on hurdles debut in November. Understandably showed little behind class act Dysart Enos on hurdling debut at Doncaster.
7th	11 7th (11) (80/1 -60%) Lake's Aventurine		80 80/1(-60%)																															(11) Lake's Aventurine 80/1, Half-sister to 3 winners, including fairly useful French 2m/2¼m hurdle winner Lake's Maker. Showed some ability when fourth of 13 on debut in a Hereford bumper (16.2f, soft) in March but failed to build on that next time and sizeable step forward needed now switched to hurdles. First bumper run was better than the second and even then she was beaten 17l.
8th	10 8th (10) (80/1 -60%) Lady Harriett		80 80/1(-60%)																															(10) Lady Harriett 80/1, Showed some ability when fourth in Chepstow bumper last March but ran poorly on return at the same course in January. Subsequently pulled up on hurdles bow at Huntingdon and she's readily passed over. She's another who ran okay on her bumper debut but has offered nothing since.
9th	8 9th (8) (150/1 -50%) Conniegetaway		150 150/1(-50%)																															(8) Conniegetaway 150/1, Modest form shown in 3 bumpers and failed to complete over hurdles so far. She's kicked off over hurdles with two non-completions at huge odds.
10th	4 10th (4) (66/1 -100%) Jean Danjou		66 66/1(-100%)																															(4) Jean Danjou 66/1, Fair maiden on the Flat and, having changed hands for 9,500 gns in September, he was a well-held second in a 5-runner affair (only 3 completed) on hurdles debut at Huntingdon (15.8f, good). Undergone a wind op since and now tried in a tongue strap. Questionable what he achieved in a Huntingdon novice as that race completely fell apart.
11th	7 11th (7) (66/1 +34%) Real Rewards		66 66/1(+34%)																															(7) Real Rewards 66/1, Half-brother to 3 winners, including fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser East Street and fair chaser Armattiekan. Runner-up on the latest of his 4 starts between the flags back in May 2022 but sent off at 200/1 and suffered a heavy defeat on Rules debut in December. Went close in one of his four points but was 200-1 when pulled up in a Doncaster novice.

Point-to-point winner Eaton Anne changed hands for 25,000 pounds in December and it would be no surprise to see him get involved on his debut for the in-form Olly Murphy team. However, the vote goes to NEW ORDER, who was a long way clear of the third when second at Market Rasen last month, despite jumping left throughout. Charlie Longsdon's six-year-old may benefit from this left-handed track and he should have no issues with this drop in distance, while any market confidence behind Mostly Sunny would also be interesting.

Olly Murphy has his string in good order and saddles an appealing type here in EATON ANNE, who landed a maiden point towards the end of last year and it will look significant if the market speaks in his favour ahead of this Rules debut. New Order is much the best of those with experience over hurdles and will be a big threat if coping with this drop in trip, while Mostly Sunny, a three-time winner on the Flat, has to enter calculations on debut in this sphere for the Dan Skelton yard.

Dan Skelton's MOSTLY SUNNY was pretty decent on his day on the Flat and could easily be the answer to this modest contest.

Off 12 months. Hooded for 1st time. Very much of interest. A concern that he has been off a year but it is telling that he is persevered with.

Off 11 months. First run for yard after leaving Mark J. O'Hare. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Well beaten on debut almost a year ago; notable jockey booking, so worth a market check.

5th	7 5th (7) (16/1 +0%) Serious Chat		16 16/1(+0%)																															(7) Serious Chat 16/1, €18,000 3-y-o, Doyen gelding. Closely related to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Arizona Cardinal and fairly useful hurdler Destroytheevidence,. An 18,000euros 3yo is by a decent sire but likely to improve for this.
6th	13 6th (13) (18/1 -50%) Torquay Road		18 18/1(-50%)																															(13) Torquay Road 18/1, Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 10 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, soft, 125/1) on NH debut 156 days ago. Showed some ability on debut in a Fairyhouse bumper in December; can run respectably.
7th	11 7th (11) (25/1 -150%) The Gray Ghost		25 25/1(-150%)																															(11) The Gray Ghost 25/1, €6,000 3-y-o, Doyen gelding. Closely related to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Cigliano and fairly useful hurdler Shmabeni. Worth a market check. By a useful sire but made only 6,000euros as a 3yo; likely to improve from this run.
8th	16 8th (16) (40/1 -60%) Parga Diamond		40 40/1(-60%)																															(16) Parga Diamond 40/1, Diamond Boy mare.

9th	5 9th (5) (14/1 -40%) Lynchy Boy		14 14/1(-40%)																															(5) Lynchy Boy 14/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Fourth of 18 in novice hurdle (80/1) at Clonmel (16.4f, soft) on hurdles bow 19 days ago. Switches from hurdles to bumpers. Worthy of interest back in this sphere. Fourth in a Clonmel maiden hurdle on heavy; can run well if handling this faster ground.
10th	8 10th (8) (100/1 -150%) Seskin Flash		100 100/1(-150%)																															(8) Seskin Flash 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy, 125/1) 101 days ago. Showed some ability on debut but beaten a long way next time and others are preferred.
11th	4 11th (4) (25/1 +0%) He's Gorgeous		25 25/1(+0%)																															(4) He's Gorgeous 25/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 10 in bumper (20/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 101 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Decent debut but well below that level since and has to resume progress.

The patience of connections of the well-bred SORRENTINO can be rewarded in this finale. Sent off a warm favourite for a bumper at the Punchestown Festival last year, the gelding unseated before halfway. Having resisted the temptation to return to the County Kildare venue last week, Willie Mullins can see his six-year-old gain compensation here. Kate Knows Best was runner-up on her racecourse debut at Gowran Park in February before running below par at that same track the following month. Given plenty of time to cover, she can show her true ability now. Fatal Flaw is worth a second look in the betting market given that his trainer Johnathan Sweeney is well able to ready one for a bumper.

GERS GIGI is a half-sister to a bumper winner and represents a top yard, so she's worth chancing to make a winning start for all that Sorrentino is a big player 12 months on from unseating (when sent off a short price) on debut. The Gray Ghost also has something to recommend him on pedigree.

SORRENTINO was well-backed when slipping up on debut at Punchestown a year ago but it is notable that he has been persevered with.

1	3 1st (3) (4/1 -14%) Jet Of Dreams		4 4/1(-14%)																															(3) Jet Of Dreams 4/1, Point winner who has yet to strike under Rules but has performed with credit on several occasions. Looked rusty back from a break/first run following a wind op when chasing home wide-margin winner Texard at Market Rasen (17.2f, good to soft) and he's one of the likelier winners. Irish point winner; yet to win under rules but some fair form; conditions suit; a possible.
2	2 2nd (2) (5/2 +58%) Famoso		2.5 5/2(+58%)																															(2) Famoso 5/2, Consistent sort who notched third success over fences when scoring in good style over C&D in January. At least respectable efforts in defeat since and while he remains 6 lb above his last winning mark, this 8-y-o is likely to be on the premises once again. C&D winner off 6lb lower in January; fair form since; conditions suit; one with a chance.
3	4 3rd (4) (4/1 -14%) Ferrybridge		4 4/1(-14%)																															(4) Ferrybridge 4/1, A fair winning hurdler/chaser who was left clear at the last when opening his account in a handicap chase at Huntingdon (16.5f, good to soft) in March. Too free in the hands of an amateur back hurdling at Kempton next time but could be involved now returned to fences/reunited with Lilly Pinchin. Won at Huntingdon on third start over fences (Ferrbybridge 2nd); conditions suit; chance.
4	5 4th (5) (9/2 -125%) Iorens		4.5 9/2(-125%)																															(5) Iorens 9/2, Successful on sole outing in points but failed to build on a promising start over hurdles. However, bettered previous chase form by some way when 9½ lengths second to Ferrybridge at Huntingdon where she probably would've finished much closer but for a mistake 2 out. Shortlisted. Irish point winner; best run over fences when 2nd to Ferrybridge (4lb worse off) last time.
5th	6 5th (6) (66/1 +34%) Whyzzat		66 66/1(+34%)																															(6) Whyzzat 66/1, Fair hurdles winner in Ireland in 2021 but hasn't shown much in 4 starts for present connections, including both attempts over fences. Sports cheekpieces for the first time over jumps here and first-time tongue strap also enlisted. Ex-Irish hurdle winner; not shown a great deal for this yard; cheekpieces now tried.
6th	9 6th (9) (66/1 +34%) Invincible Wish		66 66/1(+34%)																															(9) Invincible Wish 66/1, Veteran who went close off a 6 lb higher mark at Stratford in June 2022 but he hasn't made much of an impact in 2 starts since returning from 18 months off in January. Flat winner; 0-16 over jumps although a couple of fair chase runs; others stronger.
7th	1 7th (1) (18/1 -64%) Ardmayle		18 18/1(-64%)																															(1) Ardmayle 18/1, Won twice off higher marks in the early part of 2023, latterly over this C&D (good to soft). Best effort since when third in his bid to win the same race here last month but he was readily brushed aside by the first 2 and he's not the easiest to predict nowadays. Two wins in 2023, the 2nd over C&D; not so good since but better last time; could go well.
8	8 |PU| (8) (10/1 -11%) Von Hallers		10 10/1(-11%)																															(8) Von Hallers 10/1, Winning Irish pointer but he yet to shine under Rules, failing to complete first 3 starts in mares' novice hurdles and the safely held when getting round in one at Huntingdon (20.7f, good to soft) where she was equipped with first-time cheekpieces. Down in trip for this handicap/chase debut. Irish point winner in Jan 2023; poor over hurdles but may do better on h'cap/chase debut.
7	7 |PU| (7) (15/2 +0%) Henri Le Bon		7.5 15/2(+0%)																															(7) Henri Le Bon 15/2, Fair hurdles winner who shaped with far greater promise than he did on his first 2 starts over fences when third in a 9-runner handicap chase at Stratford (17f, good) last May. Absent since but resumes on a 2 lb lower mark and could easily have a say if raring to go. Won handicap hurdle in 2022; best chase run when 3rd at Stratford last May; absent since.

FERRYBRIDGE may have disappointed at Kempton last time out but he is best judged on his success two starts ago at Huntingdon when easily seeing off the reopposing Iorens (second), who is now 4lb better off. Lilly Pincin getting back on board should aid the six-year-old's cause and it may be that Jet Of Dreams gives him the most to think about on his second run back from wind surgery after an encouraging second at Market Rasen.

IORENS appeared to be travelling at least as well as eventual winner Ferrybridge when losing momentum with a second-last mistake at Huntingdon and, now 4 lb better off with that rival, she could be the answer. Jet of Dreams is entitled to come on for his Market Rasen spin and is feared most, while Famoso and Henri Le Bon are others to consider.

In an open handicap chase FERRYBRIDGE is taken to gain his second win over fences by confirming Huntingdon placings with Iorens.

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.
