14:20 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (13/2 -8%) Les's Legacy	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(5) Les's Legacy 13/2, Losing run continues to mount but he wasn't disgraced at Catterick (19.3f, good to soft) last time and is now 8 lb lower compared to when going close over this C&D last spring. Will be a danger to all if able to build on his latest effort. His form has deteriorated but he was a fair fourth last time and is another 2lb lower here.
2	4 2nd (4) (8/1 +11%) Romeo Brown	8 8/1(+11%)	(4) Romeo Brown 8/1, Has fallen a long way in the weights since his latest success but that was way back in December 2022 and both this season and last have been a struggle for this veteran. Has undergone a wind op. Regressive 11yo who has failed to threaten this season; hopes pinned on wind operation.
3	2 3rd (2) (13/2 +28%) Final Edgar	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(2) Final Edgar 13/2, Back on track when second over 19.3f at Catterick in January and, though he has finished out of the money both starts since, he certainly wasnt disgraced when fifth of 11 tried over 25.3f last time. Dropping back in trip here is a good move and he merits serious consideration off an attractive mark. Just 1-15 but went close at Catterick in January and could be involved.
4	9 4th (9) (22/1 -389%) Cage Rattler	22 22/1(-389%)	(9) Cage Rattler 22/1, Modest 7f Flat winner who offered little in novice/maiden hurdles but then took a significant step forward on his handicap debut in this sphere when third of 10 upped to 20.3f at Newcastle (good). If able to build on that he will surely have a big part to play in this contest. Third at 100-1 on recent handicap hurdle debut at Newcastle; chance if backing that up.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/1 -10%) Always A Reason	11 11/1(-10%)	(8) Always A Reason 11/1, Opened account in maiden points at the fifth attempt last spring and hasn't shown much over a varierty of trips since switched to hurdles. Conversely, it's perfectly reasonable to expect some improvement from this 6-y-o now that he ventures down the handicap route. Irish point winner who is open to improvement now moving into handicaps; watch the betting.
6th	7 6th (7) (3/1 -20%) Red Cadillac	3 3/1(-20%)	(7) Red Cadillac 3/1, Yet to get his head in front but, as a lightly-raced 6-y-o, time is still very much on his side and appears to be headed in the right direction judged on latest second of 9 in a Uttoxeter handicap (2½m, heavy). Major player. Placed in both handicaps and this could be a good opportunity to get off the mark.
7th	11 7th (11) (10/3 +76%) Noble Affair	3.333333 10/3(+76%)	(11) Noble Affair 10/3, Just the one win to her name from 20 appearances overall and while she produced her best effort for a while when fourth in a 10-runner Ayr handicap hurdle (20.4f, soft) last time, one or two of these make more appeal. C&D winner; best run for a while when fourth at Ayr last month but needs something extra.
8th	6 8th (6) (18/1 -13%) Blakey Boy	18 18/1(-13%)	(6) Blakey Boy 18/1, Hinted at ability in 2 bumpers and there were some positives to take from his hurdles debut spin at Ayr in January. No impact both subsequent appearances and while he appears to have been brought along with handicaps in mind, he will certainly need to improve now pitched into one. Could be back on better ground for this handicap debut and he's a possible improver.
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (12/1 +64%) Benito	12 12/1(+64%)	(10) Benito 12/1, Winless since 2022 and the addition of cheekpieces (retained here) failed to bring about improvement at Ayr last time. First-time tongue strap now enlisted and, unless the new headgear sparks significant progress, he will likely struggle once again. He's failed to threaten on his two starts this year following a long absence.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (33/1 +0%) Shadows In The Sky	33 33/1(+0%)	(3) Shadows In The Sky 33/1, Successful twice from the front in 2½m handicap chases here in 2024, the latest off 3 lb lower mark than this in October. However, it's been all down hill since and hard to know what to expect of him on first run over hurdles for almost 2 years. Two chase wins here last year but has struggled in that sphere on his last three starts.

14:20 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

RED CADILLAC built on his third-placed handicap bow at Ayr when second at Uttoxeter. A 1lb nudge up the ratings looks fair for Nicky Richards' inmate and a breakthrough victory could be on the cards. The biggest threat may emerge from course winner Les's Legacy, who should appreciate reapplied cheekpieces and wasn't disgraced when fourth at Catterick. Noble Affair is also noted reverting to the scene of her sole career triumph.

The vote goes to CAGE RATTLER, who took a sizeable step forward when third upped to 20.3f on his handicap debut in this sphere at Newcastle and he makes plenty of appeal off the same mark. Red Cadillac appears to be gradually progressing with experience and is feared on the back of his solid Uttoxeter second last time, while Final Edgar, Knomorediamonds and Les's Legacy all need considering having slipped to dangerous marks.

Point winner ALWAYS A REASON makes his handicap debut off a lowly mark and earns the vote ahead of Red Cadillac.

14:50 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (11/4 +0%) Forest Blaze	2.75 11/4(+0%)	(5) Forest Blaze 11/4, Opened account over C&D in December and backed it up with a good third of 16 at Wetherby (19.7f, heavy) the following month. Below par upped to 25.3f in the Catterick handicap won by Bollin Neil last time but he'll be a serious player if he puts his best foot forward back in trip here. Won over C&D in December and not seen to best effect at Catterick last time; contender.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/1 -47%) Bollin Neil	11 11/1(-47%)	(2) Bollin Neil 11/1, Returned to form from out of the blue when landing an 11-runner handicap under William Easterby at Catterick (25.3f, good to soft) last month. Remains on a fair mark up 5 lb and surely won't be far away, provided that this drop back in trip doesn't count against him. Won at favourite course Catterick last month; has run well here in the past; respected.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/1 +20%) Aquitaine Boy	6 6/1(+20%)	(3) Aquitaine Boy 6/1, Just held on to land a 10-runner handicap at Newcastle (20.3f, good to soft) in January and by no means disgraced when chasing home runaway winner Punxsutawney Phil over the same C&D last month. Place possibilities here off a 1 lb lower mark. Bumped into well-handicapped winner when 16l second last time; could have a part to play.
4	4 4th (4) (9/1 +25%) Maillot Blanc	9 9/1(+25%)	(4) Maillot Blanc 9/1, Seems to be in a lull at present, failing to get back on track tried in cheekpieces (omitted here) following a wind op at Ayr recently. Would be a big player off this reduced mark if staging a revival but there is no real reason to anticipate an imminent return to form. Fair third at Kelso in November but he's failed to shine on his three starts since.
5th	10 5th (10) (14/1 +30%) Rock N Roll Champ	14 14/1(+30%)	(10) Rock N Roll Champ 14/1, Maiden in Irish points and thought yet to trouble the judge following 5 runs under Rules, he did show more spark when fourth in the 13-runner handicap won by Dickens here (16.2f, good to soft) 12 days ago. This step back up in trip looks a good move but he needs to raise his game another notch. Kept on for 15l fourth over 2m here recently; interesting contender now back up in trip.
6th	7 6th (7) (10/1 -67%) Coral Blue	10 10/1(-67%)	(7) Coral Blue 10/1, Winless for best par of 2 years but has gradually got back on track in his 3 appearances since returning from a break in January, finding just one too good at Musselburgh (19.8f, good to soft) last month. Live each-way contender. Ran well when second at Musselburgh last month and he's one to consider.
7th	6 7th (6) (11/2 0%) It's Dan	5.5 11/2(0%)	(6) It's Dan 11/2, Didn't shape badly in a Kelso novice back from 20 months off in December and, though safely held switched to handicaps next 2 starts, he recently performed creditably following a wind op when runner-up off 1 lb higher at Ayr (2m, heavy). One to consider now moving back up in trip. 11l second at Ayr on first run since wind op and the step back up in trip could be a plus.
9	9 \|U\| (9) (10/3 +63%) Tan Law	3.333333 10/3(+63%)	(9) Tan Law 10/3, Lightly-raced maiden who seemed not to stay when fourth of 12 in 27f handicap hurdle at Sedgefield last month. Step back in right direction dropped to 19.6f when third at Bangor next time and, effectively 4 lb lower in the weights here, he has to enter calculations. Lightly raced 7yo; fair third at Bangor last month but needs a bigger performance today.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (16/1 +0%) Santa Clarita	16 16/1(+0%)	(8) Santa Clarita 16/1, Ran best race for current yard when good second of 18 in a handicap hurdle at Ayr (20.4f, soft) in January. Poor next time and while his latest fifth off at the same course wasn't a bad effort, it was below the level of what will likely be required to emerge on top here. Twice runner-up for this new yard but hasn't been at her best the last twice.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (16/1 +20%) Bridge Court	16 16/1(+20%)	(1) Bridge Court 16/1, Didn't show much on Rules debut in a bumper on sole start for Mike Smith last term but left that low-key effort behind when making the frame on first 2 starts over hurdles for new yard in October/November. However, it was alarming how quickly he weakened out of content on handicap bow last time. Pulled up on handicap debut but has had a break since and showed promise previously.

14:50 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

The combination of a two-month break and step up in distance worked the oracle for surprise Catterick winner Bollin Neil and he warrants respect in his follow-up bid. However, he hasn't proved the most consistent in the past and preference is for IT'S DAN. The seven-year-old displayed the benefit of a wind procedure when second over an inadequate 2m at Ayr and a return to this distance could prove fruitful. Coral Blue is worth a second look too.

FOREST BLAZE failed to fire when only seventh behind Bollin Neil at Catterick but he was in good heart prior to that and may well bounce back now returned to the scene of his breakthrough success in December. Bollin Neil remains nicely treated following a 5 lb rise for that success and should be in the mix but bigger threats over this trip may be posed by It's Dan and Tan Law, both of whom took steps back in the right direction last time.

The lightly raced ROCK N ROLL CHAMP made late headway into fourth over 2m here recently and gets the nod now back up in trip.

15:20 Hexham Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (2/9 +44%) Road To Home	0.222222 2/9(+44%)	(6) Road To Home 2/9, Successful on sole outing in bumpers for Eugene M. O'Sullivan and shaped promisingly second time up over hurdles when third in big-field maiden at Naas (15.5f) the previous month, despite looking unsuited by the drop in trip. This stiffer track will suit, and he has excellent claims. Bumper winner who was third of 20 at Naas last time; strong contender for Willie Mullins.
2	2 2nd (2) (3/1 0%) He's Bresilian	3 3/1(0%)	(2) He's Bresilian 3/1, Failed to complete in 2 points but has shaped with more encouragement in a couple of bumpers and showed even better form when third of 10 on January's Wetherby hurdling debut. Held back by a significant late mistake at Newcastle since and remains open to improvement. Every chance when bad mistake two out at Newcastle last month; leading player.
3	3 3rd (3) (80/1 +20%) Just Oot	80 80/1(+20%)	(3) Just Oot 80/1, Down the field in 2 bumpers. Well beaten in both bumpers; hard to fancy back from a year off.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 -20%) Kelvin Forlonge	12 12/1(-20%)	(4) Kelvin Forlonge 12/1, Just minor promise in a pair of bumpers. Showed some ability in bumpers; place prospects on hurdle debut, probably at best.
5th	9 5th (9) (200/1 +0%) Annies Gold	200 200/1(+0%)	(9) Annies Gold 200/1, Showed little in bumpers and did likewise sent hurdling at Market Rasen 3 weeks ago. Big odds and has shown little across her four outings.
6th	5 6th (5) (20/1 +0%) Kingston Rock	20 20/1(+0%)	(5) Kingston Rock 20/1, Modest maiden hurdler. Ran well in first-time cheekpieces when third in 7-runner maiden over C&D 12 days ago, but this is a far stronger race. 14-race maiden; very hard to envisage him winning this but he has place claims.
7th	1 7th (1) (125/1 +50%) Do Ye Wanna	125 125/1(+50%)	(1) Do Ye Wanna 125/1, Well beaten in bumpers and again showed nothing switched to hurdling at Carlisle recently. Tailed off/pulled up at big odds on all three starts.
8th	10 8th (10) (125/1 -89%) Roxby Belle	125 125/1(-89%)	(10) Roxby Belle 125/1, £48,000 purchase who is the first foal of a fairly useful 2½m hurdle winner but could hardly of shown any less starting out in a novice hurdle at Ayr recently. Pulled up on recent debut at Ayr and probably best watched for now.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (100/1 0%) Woody's Boy	100 100/1(0%)	(8) Woody's Boy 100/1, Tailed off on completed start in maiden hurdles. Tailed off/pulled up over hurdles this year on first two starts.

15:20 Hexham Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Having finished third in a 20-runner maiden hurdle at Naas, Irish raider ROAD TO HOME should prove tough to beat. The six-year-old is sure to prove popular as Willie Mullins' first runner at this venue and he can repel He's Bresilian, who has reached the frame on both timber outings to date and another good account is forecast. The experienced Kingston Rock may fare best of the remainder.

It's hard to see this developing into anything other than a match between ROAD TO HOME and He's Bresilian. The former should be suited by the stiffer nature of this track having looked unsuited by the drop in trip when shaping promisingly on his second hurdling start at Naas the previous month, so he edges the vote.

The Willie Mullins-trained ROAD TO HOME was a good third at Naas last month and is taken to add to last June's bumper win.

15:50 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (7/4 +22%) Halfway House Lad	1.75 7/4(+22%)	(8) Halfway House Lad 7/4, A most fortuitous winner at Newcastle on return (nearly 50 lengths down when left alone 2 out) but no element of luck involved in when scoring there 10 days ago, in command approaching last. Should go well again. Won at Newcastle recently and this in-form 6yo is a leading player.
2	6 2nd (6) (11/2 +45%) Lewa House	5.5 11/2(+45%)	(6) Lewa House 11/2, On a losing run but showed he retains ability when returning from wind surgery to finish second at Ayr (20.5f). Showed little on belated chase bow here 12 days ago, however. Won here over hurdles but poor strike-rate and well beaten on recent chase debut here.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/1 -10%) Powers Dilemma	11 11/1(-10%)	(1) Powers Dilemma 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden who was well held switched to handicaps last 2 starts. Headgear applied now sent chasing (placed on last of 4 starts in Irish points). Lightly raced point runner-up who is a possible improver now switched to fences.
4	3 4th (3) (10/3 -48%) Coolmoyne	3.333333 10/3(-48%)	(3) Coolmoyne 10/3, Back to somewhere near best (following a wind operation) when second of 5 in handicap chase at Doncaster (20.5f, good) 34 days ago. Races off same mark here so needs considering. Poor strike-rate but sole win came here and he was a good second at Doncaster last month.
5th	7 5th (7) (9/2 +50%) Dequall	4.5 9/2(+50%)	(7) Dequall 9/2, Not disgraced over hurdles here last time but now 4 years since his last win and it's been 3 years since his last run over fences. On a handy mark on course hurdles form but on long losing run and return to form is needed.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (8/1 +20%) Beat The Boum	8 8/1(+20%)	(4) Beat The Boum 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden who cut little ice switched to handicaps this season. Has at least dropped to a workable mark now chasing (made frame sole outing in Irish points). He may appreciate going chasing but he struggled to get competitive over hurdles.

15:50 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

COOLMOYNE's sole career victory came over C&D and he showed a lot more when taking the silver medal home at Doncaster last month. The nine-year-old goes off an unchanged rating and could prove tough to beat. Halfway House Lad struck at Newcastle and is expected to mount another serious challenge off just 4lb higher. Of the remainder, Lewa House makes the most appeal.

A weak event but at least COOLMOYNE and Halfway House Lad both arrive in good heart, the former shading the vote.

Preference is for HALFWAY HOUSE LAD (nap), who won over fences at Newcastle recently. Powers Dilemma is second choice.

16:20 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (4/1 -45%) Lawrenny	4 4/1(-45%)	(1) Lawrenny 4/1, Progressive winner in bumpers and has done well over hurdles, taking 2m novice at Wetherby before good seconds at Newcastle and Sandown, splitting a promising pair last time when a steadily-run race back down at 2m was perhaps not ideal. Respected on handicap debut. Bumper/novice hurdle winner; begins handicap life on fair mark & could have more to offer.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/1 -8%) That One	7 7/1(-8%)	(4) That One 7/1, Took on a few above-average types in maiden/novice events and improved further to make a successful handicap debut in novice event at Newcastle (17f) last month, getting the better of the hard-pulling runner-up late on. Switched to open company up 4 lb but could have more to offer. Won on handicap debut at Newcastle and a 4lb rise may not stop this progressive 6yo.
3	3 3rd (3) (3/1 +33%) Rewired	3 3/1(+33%)	(3) Rewired 3/1, Took advantage of a much-reduced mark as he resumed winning ways in 17f Newcastle handicap hurdle 3 weeks ago. Looked right back on song and can go well again up 4 lb. Exploited reduced mark at Newcastle three weeks ago and remains well treated back up 4lb.
4	2 4th (2) (11/2 -65%) Rock On Jet	5.5 11/2(-65%)	(2) Rock On Jet 11/2, Found some improvement fitted with hood when making all in 2m Ayr handicap hurdle in the mud in January and made a promising start over fences there last time. Same mark back in this sphere and one to note. Won on handicap hurdle debut in January; fair third over fences since; could improve.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 +0%) Famous Liss	11 11/1(+0%)	(6) Famous Liss 11/1, Irish point winner who ran his best race over hurdles in C&D novice in June. Well beaten again last time but yard going much better now and he's not without interest back in a handicap over this trip. Stable form is a positive but he hasn't progressed and needs to raise his game.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 +18%) Hourless	33 33/1(+18%)	(7) Hourless 33/1, Dual winner for Alan King in 2023, including in C&D juvenile hurdle. Yet to look like adding to his tally for current connections but his mark has dipped again. Tongue tie goes on. On a reduced mark but hasn't been showing enough to suggest he's the one to be on.
7th	8 7th (8) (9/4 +63%) V Twelve	2.25 9/4(+63%)	(8) V Twelve 9/4, Back to form bidding to win 2m Wetherby conditionals' handicap hurdle for second year running last week, responding well to a more positive ride than previously and finding only a less-exposed sort too good. Respected off the same mark. Consistent sort who was second at Wetherby last Tuesday and could be thereabouts once more.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (40/1 -150%) Galidam	40 40/1(-150%)	(5) Galidam 40/1, Fair hurdler in France who opened his account in 10-runner claimer at Moulins back in September. May have needed first run since for new yard at Wetherby in January and off again since. Tongue tie back on and this should reveal more. Won French claimer last September but well beaten in January on stable debut.

16:20 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

That One just prevailed by a neck in a class 5 at Newcastle last month and makes only his second handicap start, but he might come out second best to REWIRED. Tristan Davidson's seven-year-old went in by over three lengths, also at Newcastle, earlier in the month and a 4lb rise could prove to be on the lenient side. He can complete a double, while Lawrenny is another to consider on his handicap bow.

REWIRED looked right back on song as he resumed winning ways at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and can strike again after a 4 lb rise. There are several dangers, headed by Lawrenny and last week's Wetherby runner-up V Twelve.

Having tumbled down the weights prior to winning at Newcastle last time, REWIRED remains well treated back up 4lb and can follow up.

16:50 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (5/1 +0%) Jet Legs	5 5/1(+0%)	(4) Jet Legs 5/1, Winner of a pair of handicap chases around 3m last season but just respectable efforts at best so far this term and bit more needed in a change of headgear. Back down in trip. Down to a handy mark but needs a bigger run & the drop back in trip isn't an obvious plus.
2	8 2nd (8) (2/1 +60%) Halpha Soleil	2 2/1(+60%)	(8) Halpha Soleil 2/1, Won 2½m hurdle here in June and best effort over fences since when going close behind Divas Doyen over C&D 12 days ago. 8 lb better off with the winner here and needs considering with headgear on. Close second over C&D recently and he's one to consider in first-time cheekpieces.
3	9 3rd (9) (3/1 +57%) Divas Doyen	3 3/1(+57%)	(9) Divas Doyen 3/1, Finally came good in 2½m handicap at Carlisle in November. Back to form when resuming winning ways under this rider over C&D 12 days ago by ½ length from Halpha Soleil. However, looks up against it racing off a 11 lb higher mark (7 lb out of the weights). 7lb wrong today but won over C&D recently and could be dangerous to dismiss.
4	6 4th (6) (16/1 +43%) Trac	16 16/1(+43%)	(6) Trac 16/1, A 3-time winner last season but yet to fire this time around, soon off the bridle at Carlisle latest. Needs a big step forward. Below best this season but perhaps wind surgery will be the catalyst for a revival.
5th	3 5th (3) (7/2 +13%) Choose A Copper	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(3) Choose A Copper 7/2, Took a step forward when making a winning return/chasing bow over C&D in October but has gone backwards from that in 3 starts since, reported to have bled last time. A return to form is needed but he's 2-2 here so is worth a second look.
1	1 \|U\| (1) (11/1 +8%) Lieutenant Command	11 11/1(+8%)	(1) Lieutenant Command 11/1, Useful handicap chaser at best for Noel Meade. All the better for belated return/yard debut when runner-up at Carlisle in December. On a nice mark on that form and shaped better than bare result starting out for this stable at Carlisle 5 weeks ago. Drop back in trip will suit. 11yo who isn't the force of old but has still shown spark this season and is not ruled out.

16:50 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

GRAND VOYAGE benefited from a faller to land the spoils at Ayr, but he was in the process of running a creditable race nonetheless and a 2lb rise might underestimate him. Halpha Soleil was defeated by Divas Doyen over C&D, but is much better off at the weights so it would come as no surprise were he to reverse that form. Yealand must enter the equation if turned out again quickly following his third at Carlisle on Sunday.

LIEUTENANT COMMAND shaped as if back in form starting out for another new yard at Carlisle 5 weeks ago until his stamina ran dry and is potentially on a handy mark back down in class/distance. Halpha Soleil enhanced his decent record here when a good second over C&D 12 days ago so is another to consider along with Grand Voyage, who should remain competitive having ended his losing run at Ayr last time.

Course hurdles winner HALPHA SOLEIL was a good second over C&D 12 days ago and is taken to go one better.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (9/1 0%) Eagle's Cairn	9 9/1(0%)	(1) Eagle's Cairn 9/1, Better effort in bumpers when third of 6 at Carlisle (soft) 7 weeks ago but the form is little better than modest. Showed ability when third on second start but needs another sizeable step forward today.
1	2 1st (2) (11/8 +0%) Imperfectlyperfect	1.375 11/8(+0%)	(2) Imperfectlyperfect 11/8, £70,000 recruit from the Irish pointing field who made a promising start to his Rules career when 5 lengths third in Kelso bumper (soft) last month. Tongue tie added. Leading claims with improvement likely. Point runner-up who was third on bumper debut at Kelso and that form has worked out well.
2	6 2nd (6) (5/1 +29%) Tea Boy	5 5/1(+29%)	(6) Tea Boy 5/1, Diamond Boy half-brother to 3 winners, notably Queen Mother Champion Chase winner Put The Kettle On. Dam fair hurdler up to 2½m. Small stable has tasted bumper success. One to note in the betting. Half-brother to Champion Chase winner Put The Kettle On; worth a second look on debut.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/2 -35%) Nseventeen	4.5 9/2(-35%)	(4) Nseventeen 9/2, £30,000 purchase after finishing third in an Irish point last March. Bumper and hurdle winners have emerged from that race so he rates an interesting contender, particularly if the betting vibes are strong. Third in Irish maiden point last March and he could have a part to play on rules debut.
4	8 4th (8) (14/1 +22%) Ivan's Legacy	14 14/1(+22%)	(8) Ivan's Legacy 14/1, Flag of Honour gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler Les's Legacy. Dam (c92/h110) 2m/17f hurdle winner (stayed 2½m), also successful at up to 1¼m winner on Flat. The stable isn't a regular source of bumper winners. Half-brother to connections' Les's Legacy (RPR 110); may be one for further down the line.

LTO Selection:hiden content,

17:25 Hexham NH Flat Race (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Peter Atkinson might only have a small string, but he has done well in bumpers when running in his own colours over the last five seasons and TEA BOY could enhance that record. The Diamond Boy gelding is related to a trio of useful types, most notably Champion Chase winner Put The Kettle On, so it would come as no surprise were he to be good enough. Imperfectlyperfect shaped with promise on his stable/Rules debut at Kelso and ought to go well, while Nseventeen is also noted.

IMPERFECTLYPERFECT gets the nod on the back of a promising bumper debut at Kelso last month. Donald McCain's Nseventeen was third in a decent Irish point last March and would rate a possible big threat if the betting speaks for him. Last Man Standing and Tea Boy are newcomers who make appeal on paper.

With the form of his bumper debut third at Kelso last month having worked out well, IMPERFECTLYPERFECT is the selection.
