1st (7)  (8/1 +76%)Super Sabre Sam |
8/1(+76%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Super Sabre Sam 8/1, In the process of shaping better than he had in his sole bumper when falling at the last (held at time) on Taunton hurdle debut in December. Made little impression in a similar event there in February and needs this run for a handicap mark. In contention for a place at least before last-flight fall on hurdle debut a Taunton. |
|||
2nd (8)  (17/2 -6%)Tommy The Tank |
17/2(-6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Tommy The Tank 17/2, €10,000 3-y-o, Getaway gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Audacious Plan and fairly useful hurdler Savoy Court. Comfortable winner sole start in points (Apr 2023). Interesting Rules debutant. Won by 7l on point debut in April; 2023; makes rules debut after long layoff. |
|||
3rd (3)  (6/4 +50%)French Symphony |
6/4(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) French Symphony 6/4, Winning pointer who shaped with plenty of promise when placed first 2 starts in bumpers. Not quite in same form at Huntingdon on final outing but will be suited by this step up on trip on hurdle debut and reappears with his yard amongst the winners. Placed in good Doncaster bumper in January and a likely contender on hurdling debut. |
|||
4th (6)  (18/1 +28%)Summer In Milan |
18/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Summer In Milan 18/1, Showed ability on his only start in Irish bumpers (for P. M. J. Doyle) having earlier won a point but made a low-key hurdling debut after 6 months off at this course 19 days ago. Showed ability in Ireland last season but struggled on recent stable/hurdle debut. |
|||
5th (5)  (11/2 +54%)La Higuera |
11/2(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) La Higuera 11/2, €90,000 3-y-o, half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/smart chaser Robin des Foret. Placed on 2 of 3 starts in Irish points and shaped like a stayer when fourth of 8 sole outing in bumpers at Exeter 6 months ago. Longer trip a plus now hurdling. From good jumping family; very respectable fourth in Exeter bumper on rules debut in April. |
|||
6th (1)  (12/1 +14%)Almuhit |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Almuhit 12/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler at his best but he proved to be a disappointment on debut for new yard here in September and didn't run much better at Worcester only 3 days later. Strong claims if judged on best Irish form but recent efforts have been disappointing. |
|||
7th (10)  (66/1 -313%)Torre Del Oro |
66/1(-313%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Torre Del Oro 66/1, Fairly useful on Flat for Andrew Balding (stays 1½m), but ran no sort of race on first outing for this yard after 13 months off Salisbury recently. Makes hurdle debut. Useful on the Flat at his best but struggled on recent stable debut; hurdle debut today. |
|||
8th (11)  (12/1 -9%)Walden |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Walden 12/1, Just minor promise in a trio of bumpers for Tom Weston. Changed hands for £22,000 in May. Bought for £22,000 after displaying promise in three bumpers in the spring. |
|||
9th (13)  (9/2 +10%)Lagertha |
9/2(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Lagertha 9/2, Shaped with encouragement both starts in bumpers last season and shouldn't be taken lightly on this switch to hurdling, especially with the step up in trip promising to suit. Ran well in two good bumpers last season and enters calculations on hurdling debut. |
|||
10th (9)  (100/1 -150%)Cher Monsieur |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Cher Monsieur 100/1, Placed in Irish points but made an unpromising start to his career under Rules in a novice here 19 days ago. Tailed off when 50-1 for recent stable/hurdle debut here (2m1f). |
|||
11th (12)  (200/1 -100%)Bollywollywotsit |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Bollywollywotsit 200/1, Looks of no account at this stage. A well-beaten outsider on all three hurdling starts and makes no appeal here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Having acquitted herself with credit in two competitive bumpers, LAGERTHA may prove the answer in this tricky opener. Katy Price's filly has set a good foundation to build on now tackling timber for the first time in public and she edges the verdict over fellow hurdles debutant La Higuera. The five-year-old boasts a point-to-point background and posted a respectable fourth on his Rules debut in an Exeter bumper in April. French Symphony and Just Lucky Sivola are also noted.
FRENCH SYMPHONY showed plenty in bumpers last season and, with the longer trip bound to suit now going hurdling, he makes plenty of appeal, especially with his yard very much amongst the winners. Lagertha is another who shaped with encouragement in bumpers and shouldn't be taken lightly, with successful-pointer Tommy The Tank completing the shortlist.
Placed behind a subsequent Listed winner in a Doncaster bumper in January, FRENCH SYMPHONY is the most appealing option here.

1st (4)  (9/4 -29%)Golden Ambition |
9/4(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Golden Ambition 9/4, Heavily supported down in trip with blinkers refitted and found only one too good over 19.1f here 3 weeks ago. Stuck to his task and well clear of the rest so has to be of serious interest. Ran big race in defeat over 2m3f here this month and commands respect. |
|||
2nd (3)  (7/4 +88%)Defi Nonantais |
7/4(+88%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Defi Nonantais 7/4, Steady improvement in 3 novice hurdles but only a respectable effort on his handicap bow at Wincanton in February. Bit better in cheekpieces/tongue strap following a wind op when fifth of 10 at Plumpton (20.5f, good to soft) before failing to see out 23.1f final start. Absent since disappointing run in April but improvement is possible this season. |
|||
3rd (7)  (7/1 -17%)Footloose Man |
7/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Footloose Man 7/1, Placed in bumpers and left previous hurdling efforts behind when opening his account in a 9-runner conditional jockeys' event over 17.8f here in August. Held back by mistakes both starts since and now goes up in trip. 2m1f course winner in August and also ran well over 2m3f here this month; up in trip again. |
|||
4th (5)  (11/1 +8%)Chancellorstown |
11/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Chancellorstown 11/1, No impact in 3 runs over hurdles (contested good races at Newbury twice). Placed twice in points but failed to take to chasing at the first attempt at Huntingdon in March. Returns from 7 months off with yard in reasonable nick. Tailed off when switched to fences for handicap debut but remains unexposed. |
|||
5th (10)  (10/1 +60%)What's My Line |
10/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) What's My Line 10/1, C&D winner who was in good form last term until only tenth of 15 in handicap here (17.7f, good to firm) in April, going in snatches. Likely he needed the run on reappearance 19 days ago and better expected here. Tailed off here this month but might come on for the run; won this race in 2022. |
|||
6th (9)  (14/1 -65%)Stage Show |
14/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Stage Show 14/1, Fair maiden on Flat and more like it over hurdles with a brace of fourth-place finishes in handicaps around 17f this autumn. Stamina for this far taken on trust. Made the frame on both handicap hurdles (2m1f/2m); stamina will be tested today. |
|||
7th (8)  (11/1 -38%)Little Talks |
11/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Little Talks 11/1, Remains a maiden following 10 starts but she returned to something like her best when third of 6 in novices' handicap hurdle at Fakenham (23.4f) in June. Looks a thorough stayer so this trip may not be ideal on return. Game effort when third at Fakenham in June but absent since and now 0-10 over hurdles. |
|||
|PU| (1)  (16/1 -33%)Just Four Fame |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Just Four Fame 16/1, Third in an Aintree bumper in May 2022 then not seen again until last of 5 in maiden hurdle at Wincanton in February. Bit more like it when fifth at Warwick 3 weeks ago, albeit well positioned. Tongue tie goes on for hurdles debut. Very lightly raced 7yo; up in trip after shaping well in recent 2m novice. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Easter Icon impressed with how he travelled when making a winning handicap bow in this sphere over C&D in August. Although a 7lb higher mark looks more than workable, testing ground conditions could prove the five-year-old's undoing and preference is for GOLDEN AMBITION. The Ben Pauling-trained gelding found only an unexposed rival too strong over 2m3f here earlier this month and a 6lb rise in the ratings doesn't look insurmountable. Stage Show is also of interest stepping up in distance.
Despite failing to land heavy support here 19 days ago, GOLDEN AMBITION didn't do a lot wrong in pulling a long way clear with a handicap debutant and he can go one place better this time. Easter Icon is second choice, with What's My Line expected to step up on his reappearance run when well behind the selection.
Ben Pauling's GOLDEN AMBITION found one too good when heavily backed here this month but could still be well treated after a 6lb rise.

1st (6)  (16/5 +62%)Samazul |
16/5(+62%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Samazul 16/5, Bumper winner last season and bettered what he showed on first 2 hurdles starts when fifth in a big-field Newbury novice (16.3f, soft) in January. Unable to confirm that form in handicaps next 2 starts, however. Has the size to make a chaser. Disappointing over hurdles last season but chasing could be the making of him. |
|||
2nd (3)  (6/1 -20%)Koenigsstern |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Koenigsstern 6/1, Dual winning pointer who showed promise when reaching the frame over hurdles last winter. Ground might have been too testing final start and is an interesting chasing debutant on return. Dual point winner; 0-5 over hurdles last season but makes chasing debut from workable mark. |
|||
3rd (4)  (85/40 +39%)Hatos |
85/40(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hatos 85/40, Off the mark in this sphere at Ffos Las (16f) in February and improved when following up in 4-runner handicap at Wincanton. Best effort since when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Wincanton when last seen in April. First run for yard after leaving Anthony Honeyball. Dual chase winner for Anthony Honeyball last season; on workable mark for stable debut. |
|||
4th (2)  (6/1 -50%)Celtic Ned |
6/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Celtic Ned 6/1, Improved again when runner-up in a 2m Lingfield novice hurdle in late November but failed to kick on after. Off 8 months. Has the size to make a chaser at least. Became rather disappointing over hurdles last season but may fare better over fences. |
|||
5th (8)  (33/1 +18%)Ray's The One |
33/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ray's The One 33/1, Little recent show over hurdles and well held switched to fences last 2 starts. Difficult to fancy. Well beaten at Plumpton last month; visor added in bid for revival. |
|||
|PU| (5)  (9/2 +18%)Will Sting |
9/2(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Will Sting 9/2, Often thereabouts and was a respectable fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Warwick (20f, good to soft) when last seen in May. Career-low mark eases further so not taken lightly. Ran well when fourth at Warwick in May and resumes on a 2lb lower mark; major player. |
|||
|PU| (9)  (28/1 +0%)Onnaroll |
28/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Onnaroll 28/1, Poor maiden who's easy to oppose from out of the handicap. 0-17 over hurdles; 10lb wrong for this chasing debut; can't be recommended. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Celtic Ned is making his seasonal/chase debut off what looks an attractive mark and it will be interesting to see how the six-year-old fares in the market. Mutual Respect and Hatos are others who could play a part in the finish, but KOENIGSSTERN gets the nod on the basis that he's potentially well treated on his chase bow and could really improve this season for tackling a fence.
MUTUAL RESPECT needed some luck when winning off this mark at Worcester last month but he finished clear with a subsequent winner that day and this is a weaker race. The likeable Call Off The Dogs must be respected, while Koenigsstern is a potential improver now chasing.
After running well to make the frame three consecutive times in the spring, WILL STING may exploit a favourable mark.

1st (2)  (3/1 +65%)Colours On Canvas |
3/1(+65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Colours On Canvas 3/1, Largely progressive as a novice upon joining this yard, bagging a second handicap success with ease at Plumpton (20.5f) in March. Pulled up final start later that month though and he'll need to leave behind a low-key effort on the Flat in September. Visor replaces cheekpieces. Won three times last season but reverts to hurdling with a point to prove. |
|||
2nd (3)  (2/1 +20%)Whatsupwithyou |
2/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Whatsupwithyou 2/1, Back to best when winning at Ludlow (21.2f, soft) in December and just as good in defeat both starts after, finding only an unexposed sort too strong in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (20.2f) in April. Has often needed first run of campaign to put him spot on, however. Ended last season with very creditable second of 15 at Cheltenham; major player. |
|||
3rd (6)  (11/4 +63%)Junkanoo |
11/4(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Junkanoo 11/4, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat and similar form over hurdles last winter, off the mark at Plumpton (15.9f) in January. Lightly raced since and shaped as if he'd come on for his latest fifth of 8 in handicap back at Plumpton 31 days ago. Mark looks workable up in trip. Ran quite well at Plumpton (2m) last month and is still on a good mark; new trip today. |
|||
4th (1)  (10/1 -150%)Oscars Moonshine |
10/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Oscars Moonshine 10/1, 9-y-o who resumed progress with cheekpieces fitted last year, completing the hat-trick all under this rider at Wincanton (21.3f) when last seen 12 months ago (final start for Paul Nicholls). Good record fresh and he's respected. Won three in a row for Paul Nicholls in 2023; makes stable debut after one-year absence. |
|||
|PU| (5)  (11/2 +50%)Classic Lord |
11/2(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Classic Lord 11/2, Useful on Flat and came good over hurdles for his new yard last winter, winning twice including here (17.7f). Exploits proved mixed in 4 starts thereafter, falling at Sandown when last seen in the spring. Possible he'll be better for the run after 6 months off. Dual novice winner; inconsistent in handicaps since but current mark is workable. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Oscars Moonshine is worth noting on his first start for a new yard having been formerly trained by Paul Nicholls. The latter is represented by INCA DE LAFAYETTE, who will relish the step back up in distance and has solid claims on his victory on soft going at Taunton in January. Whatsupwithyou is another to consider based on his second at Cheltenham in April, while Colours On Canvas landed a double on testing ground at Plumpton last season and will have benefitted from a recent outing on the level.
The betting should prove useful with a number making their seasonal return but INCA DE LAFAYETTE made a successful reappearance 12 months ago and, having ended the campaign in good order, he's narrowly selected to continue the good work. Junkanoo appeals as being on a handy mark and is respected provided the trip doesn't stretch him. Oscars Moonshine completes the shortlist.
Nudged up only 1lb for his commendable second in a big-field Class 2 at Cheltenham in April, WHATUPSWITHYOU gets the nod.

1st (6)  (6/4 -9%)Instant Gambler |
6/4(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Instant Gambler 6/4, Has proved a revelation since switched over the larger obstacles and completed his hat-trick in the style of one who'll go on to even better things at Hexham (24.2f, good) 19 days ago, taking over early in straight and asserting from last. Big shout up another 7 lb back at this track. 3-3 since switched to fences last month, with two of the wins over C&D; obvious claims. |
|||
2nd (7)  (85/40 +47%)Eurkash |
85/40(+47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Eurkash 85/40, On a losing run but he posted a very good second of 10 for his new yard over C&D on penultimate start, going with enthusiasm. Shaped quite well again back over hurdles at Stratford (22f, good to soft) just over a fortnight ago and fancied to be in the shake-up returned to fences. Ran big race behind dual subsequent winner Instant Gambler over C&D last month. |
|||
3rd (3)  (8/1 +27%)Samourai One |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Samourai One 8/1, Left his hurdling exploits behind when scoring easily on his Market Rasen chase debut in February. That was decent form (had 3 next-time winners in behind) but pulled up on both subsequent starts that season. Cobden booked and can hit the ground running on reappearance. Puled up twice since 13l win on chasing debut but a contender if all is well after break. |
|||
3rd (5)  (13/2 -63%)Caeruleum |
13/2(-63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Caeruleum 13/2, Bounced back to form shown on chase debut after a handful of lesser efforts when runner-up at Bangor (24.1f, soft) 6 months ago, edged out close home. 3 lb higher for that near miss but should be bang there again if ready to roll. 0-5 over fences but went close at Bangor at end of last season. |
|||
5th (1)  (14/1 -17%)Langley Hundred |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Langley Hundred 14/1, Not the easiest to win with and made only limited late headway even allowing for a troubled passage at Newton Abbot (25.8f, good) last month. Others look stronger. Twice went close at Newton Abbot in June but would appeal more on good ground. |
|||
6th (8)  (16/1 +0%)No Drama |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) No Drama 16/1, Made frame in Irish points and hinted at encouragement in novice hurdles. Left opening effort in handicaps well behind when second of 9 at Plumpton in May 2021 but failed to build on that later in the year and not seen since. Has switched yards ahead of his chase debut. Placed over hurdles in 2021 but makes stable/chase debut after a mammoth absence. |
|||
|PU| (2)  (28/1 -133%)Blame The Game |
28/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Blame The Game 28/1, Three-time winner in 2022/23 (including over C&D) but failed to play a significant role last season. Dropped another 2 lb ahead of his return but has enough to prove at present. Lost his way last season and needs to have been revitalised by six-month break. |
|||
|PU| (9)  (150/1 -50%)Fox Wallace |
150/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Fox Wallace 150/1, Tailed off in a bumper and 3 hurdles last season. Showed nothing hiked up in trip on return/handicap debut (hooded and had a wind op) in July and similar comments applied switched to fences at Hereford recently. Can only be watched from well out of the weights. Pulled up when 40-1 for recent chasing debut and effectively 10lb higher here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Following a C&D double, INSTANT GAMBLER remains unbeaten over fences having completed a hat-trick with his latest success at Hexham. He won with plenty left in the tank on that occasion and a 7lb rise may not be enough to anchor Alexandra Dunn's progressive chaser. Langley Hundred has a shout off his current rating, though the soft ground is a worry for him, and Caeruleum makes more appeal having ended last season with a creditable second at Bangor.
INSTANT GAMBLER made it 3-3 over the larger obstacles at Hexham earlier this month and with further improvement on the cards, Alexandra Dunn's 8-y-o is fancied to remain unbeaten in this sphere at the expense of old-rival Eurkash, who shaped quite well over timber when fourth at Stratford recently and is of more interest returned to fences. Samourai One has Harry Cobden on board for the first time and he can edge out Caeruleum for third spot.
Instant Gambler has been a revelation over fences but EURKASH was second to him here last month and is 15lb better off now.

(8)  (15/2 +25%)Lady Salvador |
15/2(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Lady Salvador 15/2, Runner-up here on handicap debut last November but seen just twice since, not disgraced after a further 4 months off when third of 9 in mares' race at this course (21.8f, good) in September. Could do with brushing up her jumping, though. Second over C&D last November but needs improvement from 7lb out of handicap today. |
|||
1st (6)  (28/1 -40%)Mutley Crew |
28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mutley Crew 28/1, Showed more than on debut when third of 14 in maiden hurdle at Newton Abbot (18.5f, good) in August, but failed to repeat that effort when well beaten at this course (17.7f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Improvement required as she goes handicapping. Did not show a great deal in her qualifying races but may improve in handicaps. |
|||
2nd (3)  (15/8 +17%)Tuscan Rose |
15/8(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Tuscan Rose 15/8, Went the right way upped in trip in handicaps last season, improving further when getting off the mark in mares' race at Taunton (23.9f, soft) in March. Back down in distance for her return, but she's respected with her yard going well. Kept on well for 3m win in March; drops back in trip after her break; shortlisted. |
|||
3rd (2)  (11/1 -22%)Pennsylvanie |
11/1(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Pennsylvanie 11/1, Fair form over hurdles in France. Largely struggled for Alexandra Dunn subsequently, but was runner-up at this course (21.8f) last September. However, after 12 months off she was well held over C&D on stable debut 19 days ago. Cheekpieces now reached for. Made low-key stable debut this month but worth a glance in the betting today; headgear on. |

4th (5)  (11/1 -69%)Miss Popalong |
11/1(-69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Miss Popalong 11/1, Didn't show much in a bumper and novice hurdles last season, but in first-time hood she took a step forward on handicap debut when third of 9 at this C&D (good) in May. Remains lightly raced so she could still have more to offer. Just a respectable third over C&D on handicap debut in May but may have more to offer. |

|PU| (1)  (7/4 +36%)Drumlee Spud |
7/4(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Drumlee Spud 7/4, Made promising start under Rules last season, in front when falling at the last in mares' maiden hurdle at Stratford (22f, heavy) in November. Only seventh in handicap at Newbury (20.5f, good to soft) in March, but she's a leading contender returning on softer ground. Placed in two novice hurdles last season and not disgraced in valuable handicap afterwards. |

|PU| (4)  (11/2 +35%)Our Friend Mo |
11/2(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Our Friend Mo 11/2, Didn't kick on from a promising start over fences last season, but fared better back hurdling when fourth of 13 in mares' handicap at Warwick (21f, good to soft) in May. Not in the same form at Southwell next time, though she's not dismissed from her current mark. Ran okay when back over hurdles in May but a lesser effort followed; returns from a break. |

|PU| (7)  (20/1 +39%)Jaunty Belle |
20/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Jaunty Belle 20/1, Still a maiden and, in first-time blinkers, she ultimately finished well held despite making the frame when fourth of 9 in mares' handicap hurdle at this course (21.8f, good) 45 days ago. Has work to do with cheekpieces back on. Ran better than bare form suggests here last time but still makes only limited appeal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
LADY SALVADOR will be sharper for a recent comeback run over these obstacles. Still in contention approaching the last hurdle, she faded in the closing stages to finish third over further that day, but looks capable of winning over timber off her current mark and gets another chance now dropped back in trip. Tuscan Rose can feature again having been raised only 4lb for winning over 3m at Taunton in March, while the unexposed Miss Popalong placed over C&D in May and could have a say in the outcome on only her second start in a handicap.
After making a promising start to her career, DRUMLEE SPUD finished well held in a Grade 2 contest at Newbury on handicap debut when last seen in March, but back on softer ground she can take advantage of this drop in grade. Tuscan Rose showed improved form in handicaps last season and is feared most, ahead of Miss Popalong.
This is a huge drop in grade for DRUMLEE SPUD (nap), who could be far too good for this field.
