1st (10)  (13/8 +35%)Clean Getaway |
13/8(+35%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Clean Getaway 13/8, Dual scorer over fences at Market Rasen this summer and continued good work of late, adding to his tally in 6-runner handicap chase at this course (16.4f) 4 weeks ago. Worthy of interest operating from lower mark back in this sphere. In good form over fences; not as good over hurdles but has a lower mark; not out of it. |
|||
2nd (11)  (25/1 -79%)Suitably Surprised |
25/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Suitably Surprised 25/1, Runner-up on her final outing in points but has made a low-key start over hurdles, failing to improve when seventh of 12 on handicap debut at Stratford (18.7f) 17 days ago. More required operating from out of the weights. Fair in points; modest hurdles form including on h'cap debut; 4lb out of the handicap. |
|||
3rd (2)  (13/2 +7%)Langton Wold |
13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Langton Wold 13/2, Fair Flat winner and similar merit over hurdles, winning C&D maiden last winter. Merely ticking over on the level in recent months but not disgraced returned to this sphere when fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f) 21 days ago. Not dismissed lightly. C&D winner on Boxing Day; fair run when fourth in Market Rasen handicap last time; chance. |
|||
4th (8)  (28/1 -40%)Milajess |
28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Milajess 28/1, Still a maiden but produced best effort yet for current yard when runner-up at Uttoxeter (15.8f) in June. Feasible to think first run for 4 months was needed over C&D 5 weeks ago and entitled to be sharper now. One of 3 runners from this stable. 0-18; fair second in June; may have needed the run when tailed off over C&D last month. |
|||
5th (9)  (14/1 -56%)Check My Pulse |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Check My Pulse 14/1, Winless since 2022 and he's failed to build on reappearance third over fences in May, only sixth at Cartmel in June and weakening when falling 2 out returned to this sphere over C&D 5 weeks ago. Mark has eased a little more at least. Versatile; fell 2 out in a C&D h'cap hurdle last month on return from a break; a possible. |
|||
6th (4)  (40/1 -300%)Achnamara |
40/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Achnamara 40/1, Fair handicapper on Flat who landed back-to-back 2m handicaps at Catterick/Musselburgh in July. Finished well held in trio of starts more recently though and he didn't convince in his first spell in this discipline for previous connections. Yard also saddle Clean Getaway. Two 2m Flat wins this summer; modest efforts over hurdles last year but not ruled out. |
|||
7th (5)  (9/4 +78%)Tropical Talent |
9/4(+78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Tropical Talent 9/4, Modest/hurdler chaser who ran well when placed in handicaps at Bangor/here in September. Not so good of late, his jumping badly letting him down when eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f) 18 days ago. Cheekpieces quickly discarded. C&D chase winner in May; mixed form since, including over hurdles; good ground suits. |
|||
8th (3)  (10/1 +29%)Trailblazer |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Trailblazer 10/1, Gained breakthrough success from 2 lb higher mark at Perth (16.2f) in July. Unable to replicate that level of form in handful of starts since and blinkers now go on in pace of usual cheekpieces. Perth winner off 2lb higher in July; patchy form since; others are more convincing. |
|||
9th (7)  (20/1 -300%)Belle Na Bann |
20/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Belle Na Bann 20/1, Successful twice around the turn of the year and back to form following a break when second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Perth (16.2f, good to soft) in May. Absent since but she's worth a second look. Goes on any ground and chance on his best form; off since May and not sure to be spot on. |
|||
10th (1)  (33/1 -230%)Ambassador |
33/1(-230%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ambassador 33/1, Resumed winning ways at Uttoxeter in July but not in same form either start over hurdles since, seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (15.8f) 33 days ago. Mark is steadily easing but he needs to get back on track. Two wins earlier in the year, latest in July; not in such good form since; others stronger. |
|||
11th (6)  (40/1 -60%)Lord Warburton |
40/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Lord Warburton 40/1, Modest at best on the Flat (stays 1½m) but and made a successful handicap hurdle debut from 13 lb out of the weights at Market Rasen (18.6f) in September. Failed to repeat that performance when pulled up at Southwell 2 weeks ago though, and others more persuasive. 1m2f Flat winner in July; off the mark over hurdles two runs ago; disappointing last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Successful over fences off 87 here last month, CLEAN GETAWAY looks thrown in off a mark of 78 on his return to timber. The seven-year-old may be winless after 17 starts in this sphere but this appeals as an ideal opportunity, with Belle Na Bann, a progressive sort last season, looking best placed to chase him home. A winner here over the larger obstacles back in May, Tropical Talent is another to consider, as is Langton Wold.
A 3-time winner over fences already this term (including here last time), CLEAN GETAWAY has a lower mark to exploit returned to timber and he could be the way to go in a race where plenty have something to prove. Belle Na Bann, Langton Wold and Tropical Talent are a trio of others to consider.
The pick is LANGTON WOLD, whose only win was over C&D last December and who shaped quite well when returned to hurdles last time.

1st (9)  (4/1 -60%)Brave Jen |
4/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Brave Jen 4/1, Modest maiden hurdler who returned to something like the form shown on stable debut when second in a thin race at Plumpton (20.5f, good to soft) travelling best but headed run-in after wandering/hanging right. Soft ground perhaps against her when finding little at Hexham. Should be involved. Exposed maiden hurdler; had wind op in June; fair second two runs back; each-way chance. |
|||
2nd (4)  (10/11 +27%)Kingston Narcissus |
10/11(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kingston Narcissus 10/11, Fair and consistent maiden on Flat in France (stays 15f) for E. Libaud (sold €30,000 last November). Gambled on and produced best effort over hurdles when second of 10 in a C&D maiden a month ago. Repeat will see him in the mix. Fair on Flat in France; clear second over C&D last time (third has won since); contender. |
|||
3rd (1)  (10/3 +79%)Broderick |
10/3(+79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Broderick 10/3, Mid-field both starts in Irish bumpers for Declan Queally during the spring. Transferred to in-form yard ahead of hurdles debut. Ex-Irish; fair form in two bumpers but probably best watched on stable/hurdles debut. |
|||
4th (3)  (10/1 +17%)Demilion |
10/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Demilion 10/1, Fairly useful handicapper at best on Flat (stays 12.5f) for Charlie Johnston but ended 2023 out of sorts. Low-key hurdles debut but showed more fitted with a tongue tie when fourth at Newton Abbot in August. Far middle-distance Flat handicapper; creditable fourth over hurdles last time; chance. |
|||
5th (7)  (18/1 -177%)Supreme George |
18/1(-177%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Supreme George 18/1, €25,000 3-y-o, £38,000 4-y-o, Order of St George gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Game On, stayed 3¼m, and fair hurdler Hillary John. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points in March. Bred to stay well and didn't show a great deal in a bumper a month ago. £38,000 buy after two Irish points; tailed off in bumper on stable debut; better is likely. |
|||
6th (8)  (66/1 -164%)The Last Cloud |
66/1(-164%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) The Last Cloud 66/1, £3,500 3-y-o, fifth foal, dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdle winner/smart chase winner (stays 25f) Senior Chief. Unraced dam a half-sister to smart chaser Senior Chief; £3,500 3yo; interesting newcomer. |
|||
7th (6)  (80/1 -100%)Rogue Lion |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Rogue Lion 80/1, Half-brother to useful hurdler Scarlet Dragon (winner around 2m). Fairly useful form on Flat (stays 11f) for Tom Clover, much improved when runner-up in novice event last time. Last of 9 on hurdles debut at Kelso a month ago. Second in 1m3f AW novice in January; tailed off on hurdles debut; better can be expected. |
|||
8th (2)  (125/1 -89%)Cage Rattler |
125/1(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Cage Rattler 125/1, Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Tullypole Annie (winner around 2m, by Dragon Pulse). Poor handicapper on Flat (stays 7f), looked hard ride last time. Stamina to prove and not an obvious one on hurdles debut. Strong puller; modest form at up to 1m1f on the Flat; will need to settle better. |
|||
9th (5)  (150/1 -50%)Macho Sun |
150/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Macho Sun 150/1, Dam half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 21f) Albuhera and fairly useful hurdler (2m winner) Optimus Maximus. Modest maiden on Flat (stays 1¼m), made no impact in handicap on stable debut last time. Tongue tie on for hurdles bow. 17-race Flat maiden who is probably best watched on first run over hurdles. |
|||
|F| (12)  (18/1 -100%)Stellarmasterpiece |
18/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Stellarmasterpiece 18/1, Modest on Flat (stays 1½m), successful in handicap penultimate start, third in similar event last time. Starts hurdles career at a realistic level. Ex-Polish; won 1m4f Catterick h'cap in May; interesting now jumping but may need the run.. |
|||
|PU| (10)  (100/1 0%)Lady's Charm |
100/1(0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Lady's Charm 100/1, Little show in varied events on Flat. Modest form at up to 1m4f on the Flat; watching brief advised on hurdling debut. |
|||
|PU| (11)  (200/1 -100%)Royal Romance |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Royal Romance 200/1, Some appeal on pedigree but showed nothing in Hexham bumpers 5 months apart. Last in two bumpers at Hexham; best watched on hurdles debut.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
KINGSTON NARCISSUS has improved with each appearance since joining Rebecca Menzies and last month's second over C&D pointed towards a gelding who looks ready to get off the mark. Placed over further on each of her last two starts, Brave Jen could be well suited by dropping back in trip and she is entitled to have a say. Demilion and hurdling debutant Supreme George enter the equation too.
KINGSTON NARCISSUS showed much more than previously over hurdles when runner-up over C&D a month ago and a repeat display may well see him go one place better in a run-of-the-mill maiden. Drying ground may help Brave Jen's cause and she's the obvious threat.
Having improved to be second over C&D last time, KINGSTON NARCISSUS is taken to get off the mark in a race sponsored by his trainer.

1st (1)  (6/4 -20%)Charging Thunder |
6/4(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Charging Thunder 6/4, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat who won at Yarmouth on stable debut in September and followed up at Fakenham on hurdling bow (2m) 18 days ago, soon clear. Open to improvement. 6-32 up to 1m6f on Flat (useful); won jumps debut at Fakenham last month; the one to beat. |
|||
2nd (4)  (40/1 -150%)Laddie Cooper Mia |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Laddie Cooper Mia 40/1, Shaped like a stayer in 3 bumpers so longer trip an obvious plus now hurdling. Modest form in three bumpers in February-April; not an obvious candidate on hurdles debut. |
|||
3rd (3)  (150/1 -50%)Blue Plan |
150/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Blue Plan 150/1, Tailed off in a pir of novice hurdles 6 months apart. Well beaten on both starts and others have stronger claims. |
|||
|F| (2)  (8/15 +27%)Will Knott |
8/15(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Will Knott 8/15, Fairly useful bumper winner and much improved over hurdles when easily winning 9-runner novice at this course (16.8f) 16 days ago, travelling strongly. Open to further progress, especially now stepping back up in trip. Won 2m1f novice hurdle here last time; excuses when beaten over 2m4f time before; chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The James Owen stable can do little wrong at present and as long as CHARGING THUNDER improves on his jumping from an impressive debut success at Fakenham, the six-year-old looks capable of following up on the rise in distance. Will Knott arguably won a stronger race than the selection here, but the fact that he was well beaten over C&D on his previous start is a worry. Laddie Cooper Mia can pick up the pieces on her hurdles bow if either of those previously mentioned falter.
A likely match between WILL KNOTT and Charging Thunder. The former created a positive impression when running away with a maiden here 16 days ago and promises to progress again now stepping back up in trip, so he edges the vote.
Preference is for CHARGING THUNDER, who was useful on the Flat and has plenty of scope for improvement after his hurdle win at Fakenham.

1st (7)  (7/1 +30%)Imperial Rule |
7/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Imperial Rule 7/1, Much improved sent chasing/handicapping when scoring impressively at Perth in May. Disappointing twice since but the break may have done him good and he's still lightly raced. Won on chase/handicap debut in May but two heavy defeats followed in the summer. |
|||
2nd (4)  (11/2 -38%)Sun Joy |
11/2(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Sun Joy 11/2, Opened account over hurdles at Huntingdon in January in first-time cheekpieces (back on here) but bit to prove now after 3 capitulations since, including on chase debut at Kempton on return. Won 15-runner handicap hurdle in January but in poor form since, including on chase debut. |
|||
3rd (5)  (17/2 -31%)Burrows Hall |
17/2(-31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Burrows Hall 17/2, Fair winning hurdler, including over staying trip. Probably high enough in the weights on return and might need it in any case. 2-13 over hurdles; could have a future over fences but has fitness to prove after break. |
|||
4th (6)  (10/3 +26%)Presenting Pete |
10/3(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Presenting Pete 10/3, Modest handicap hurdler who made a good start over fences in similar event over further here a month ago. Undone by bad mistake 4 out at Southwell next time and worth another chance. Clear second here on last month's chasing debut and a major player today. |
|||
5th (2)  (13/2 -18%)West Warhorse |
13/2(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) West Warhorse 13/2, Fair winning hurdler at this trip and should have come on for last month's Southwell return. Interesting now chasing and could figure if keeping straight again (has jumped/hung right). Well beaten over hurdles on seasonal/handicap debut; needs that run to have brought him on. |
|||
6th (3)  (11/2 +21%)Final Edgar |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Final Edgar 11/2, Maiden hurdle winner here in February and held his form well in handicaps after. Disappointing on recent chase debut at Carlisle, though. Cheekpieces go on. Consistent hurdler this year, and may bounce back from last month's low-key hurdle debut. |
|||
7th (1)  (7/2 +22%)Quaresome |
7/2(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Quaresome 7/2, Fair winning hurdler, probably best around this trip. Has race fitness on his side now switched to fences and worth considering. Inconsistent over hurdles but has possibilities if he takes well to chasing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Presenting Pete didn't build on his chasing debut second here over further when fifth at Southwell, although he can't be written off yet. Sun Joy may have needed his return at Kempton and the handicapper has given him a chance by dropping him 3lb, but a chance is taken on BURROWS HALL. A consistent type over hurdles, which included a win at Catterick over 3m1f in February, he appeals as the type to progress further now sent over the larger obstacles.
PRESENTING PETE was undone by a bad mistake 4 out at Southwell and is worth another chance given the promise he showed on his first go over fences here before that. Quaresome is interesting on his chase debut, while there is still time for Imperial Rule to get back on track.
The suggestion is PRESENTING PETE, who ran well in defeat on slower-than-ideal ground here on last month's chasing debut.

1st (7)  (10/3 -21%)Bebside Banter |
10/3(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bebside Banter 10/3, Dual winner here last term, including on return, and acquitted himself well when second last 2 starts. Set for another big run on comeback. Dual course winner last term; has fitness to prove, though, and seems best on soft ground. |
|||
2nd (6)  (6/1 +57%)The Paddy Pie |
6/1(+57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) The Paddy Pie 6/1, Hinted at a revival when fourth of 12 in a Doncaster handicap in December but followed that with 3 heavy defeats. Shaped as if needing run here last month but remains with something to prove. Very much on the downgrade now but some positives can be drawn from last month's run. |
|||
3rd (1)  (12/1 -20%)Valence D'aumont |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Valence D'aumont 12/1, Five-time chase winner but he hasn't shown a great deal of spark since returning from a lengthy absence a year ago. However, he is at least entitled to come on for his comeback fifth at Hexham last month. Not the force of old but ran okay last month, after a break, and may come on for the run. |
|||
4th (9)  (9/2 +50%)Into The Sunset |
9/2(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Into The Sunset 9/2, Dual hurdles winner in 2022. Missed whole of 2023 and has yet to match his previous best this year, including in 3 starts over fences. Mark continues to slide at least. Didn't run badly at Market Rasen last month but needs to up his game. |
|||
5th (10)  (33/1 -106%)Onenightintown |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Onenightintown 33/1, Unreliable individual. C&D winner. Scored at Catterick in February and decent second at Market Rasen after. Well held next 2 starts and merely closed up late having been tailed off much of the way when fourth at Market Rasen. Has conditions to suit here but was not firing on all cylinders when last seen in summer. |
|||
6th (3)  (15/2 +38%)Zuckerberg |
15/2(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Zuckerberg 15/2, Unreliable sort who offered little after 6 months off when eleventh on Flat at Pontefract in June and struggled again back chasing following month. Won off this mark here last season but bit to prove on balance. Course winner last November but looked badly out of sorts when last seen in June/July. |
|||
7th (5)  (12/1 -118%)Selectivelistening |
12/1(-118%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Selectivelistening 12/1, Mixed record over hurdles since making debut in June but improved straightaway sent chasing when second at Hereford 3 weeks ago. Subsequently sold from Tom Ellis £6,000 and headgear now fitted for the first time. Ran well in defeat on last month's chasing debut; drops back in trip on this stable debut. |
|||
8th (2)  (14/1 -155%)Dr Shirocco |
14/1(-155%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dr Shirocco 14/1, Winless following 20 attempts over hurdles but has already won 3 times in this sphere, the latest at Hexham in May. Decent efforts in defeat since and has a good record fresh. Player. In good form at Hexham in early part of this season; returns from a break today. |
|||
9th (11)  (16/1 -129%)Muroor |
16/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Muroor 16/1, Unreliable type but showed he retains some ability after 14 months off when third at Hexham in June. Built on that 3 months later when third here (26f) 6 weeks ago. Entitled to come on again but drop back in trip may not be ideal at this stage of his career. Without a win for four years but ran well over 3m2f here in September; not ruled out. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (13/2 +74%)Agilulf |
13/2(+74%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Agilulf 13/2, Still to register a victory and merely underlined inconsistency at Cartmel last time. Makes chase debut. Has bled. 0-13 over hurdles; absent since 35l defeat in July and not bred for fences. |
|||
|PU| (8)  (40/1 +39%)Ask Bob |
40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ask Bob 40/1, Yet to get his head in front and has offered little in 3 starts for present yard. Makes chase debut. Has struggled on all three hurdling starts this year; makes chasing debut today. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Both of BEBSIDE BANTER's victories have come at Sedgefield and the seven-year-old, who gained the first of those on his chasing debut when returning from a break a year ago, is expected to have more to offer in this discipline. Selectivelistening drops back in trip after his recent Hereford second and is more than capable of being in the mix on his first start for a new trainer. Others to note include Dr Shirocco and Into The Sunset.
BEBSIDE BANTER did well over fences last season, winning twice here, including on return, so another big run looks on the cards. Dr Shirocco was in good form over the summer and can go well fresh, so is next best ahead of Selectivelistening, who made a positive start to his chase career at Hereford.
Selectivelistening is respected but THE PADDY PIE might capitalise upon some considerable help from the handicapper.

1st (3)  (5/2 +29%)Apples Moon |
5/2(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Apples Moon 5/2, Improver in handicaps this autumn, winning at Warwick (19f, good) before second of 9 at Hereford. Could easily have more to offer so a further 3 lb nudge from the handicapper shouldn't prevent a bold bid. Won readily on handicap debut in September and has run well in defeat since; big player. |

2nd (11)  (5/1 +38%)Lenebane |
5/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Lenebane 5/1, Remains a maiden but twice runner-up in Market Rasen handicaps in the summer. Another creditable placed effort when third of 11 at Southwell (20.5f) 13 days ago. Likely to be in the shake-up again. 0-18 over hurdles but was placed behind two progressive rivals a fortnight ago; in the mix. |
|||
3rd (4)  (11/2 +45%)Vanilla Dancer |
11/2(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Vanilla Dancer 11/2, Course bumper winner on heavy ground but has achieved only modest form over hurdles, including 9 lengths fourth on last month's 2½m Hexham handicap debut. May have more to offer when the emphasis is on stamina but that isn't sure to be the case here. Not given a hard time when fourth on handicap debut; of interest off 3lb lower mark here. |
|||
4th (7)  (10/3 +39%)Maura Jeanne |
10/3(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Maura Jeanne 10/3, Finally off the mark in 6-runner Kelso handicap (3¼m, good to soft) 10 days ago. Has the speed to cope with the drop back in trip but her profile doesn't mark her down as an obvious one to follow up. Off mark at Kelso (3m2f) last week, her 18th hurdling start; not obvious type to follow up. |
|||
5th (10)  (20/1 +0%)Time Was |
20/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Time Was 20/1, Winning pointer but didn't achieve much solid under Rules last season, finishing well held on 2½m Newcastle handicap debut when last seen in April. Would need to see market support to consider. Well beaten on handicap debut but the ground was heavy; remains unexposed. |
|||
6th (14)  (35/1 -40%)Zara's Universe |
35/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Zara's Universe 35/1, Course chase winner who gained a third success over the larger obstacles at Southwell (2m) in March. However, well held back hurdling on her 17f course reappearance and can only be watched now stepping up in trip. Triple chase winner but 0-18 over hurdles; best on slow ground; others preferred. |
|||
7th (2)  (25/1 -355%)Fine By Her |
25/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fine By Her 25/1, Benefited from a return to hurdling when scoring at Fakenham in June. That was after 139 days off so a subsequent 5-month layoff isn't a concern. Should be competitive. Got career back on track with Fakenham win in June and enters calculations here. |
|||
8th (12)  (8/1 +20%)You Say Its Over |
8/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) You Say Its Over 8/1, Still looking for first success but runner-up 4 times last season. Remote fourth in Uttoxeter novice on reappearance a month ago but she should sharper for the run and stands a much more realistic chance back in a handicap. 0-11 over hurdles; second three times last season but may need a stiffer test than this. |
|||
9th (1)  (20/1 -25%)Leave Her To Me |
20/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Leave Her To Me 20/1, Bumper winner in 2022 and came good at the second time of asking over hurdles back from an absence at Uttoxeter in July. Not disgraced when sixth of 9 on Hereford handicap debut 22 days ago and being dropped 2 lb can only help. Just a respectable sixth on last month's handicap debut; 2lb drop is not enough to tempt. |
|||
10th (6)  (50/1 -150%)Pop The Question |
50/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Pop The Question 50/1, Winning pointer who caused something of a surprise when making a successful debut under Rules in 2½m Hexham maiden in June. However, that was a weak race and she's had her limitations exposed since, pulling up on last month's handicap debut back at Hexham. Shock winner on rules debut in June but pulled up on last month's handicap debut. |
|||
11th (5)  (22/1 -144%)Talysh |
22/1(-144%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Talysh 22/1, Hasn't achieved much when fourth on all 3 qualifying runs around 2m but does have the potential for better now handicapping. The stable had the winner of a similar race at Hereford last week so a market move would be interesting. Fair fourth in 2m Hereford maiden last month; up in trip for handicap debut. |
|||
12th (8)  (16/1 +20%)Feach Amach |
16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Feach Amach 16/1, Fair maiden on the Flat in Ireland who struck at the third time of asking over hurdles in 17f course juvenile last November. Failed to kick on in handicaps subsequently, though. First outing for 7 months. Surprise winner of juvenile hurdle here last November but yet to build on that success. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
APPLES MOON made a winning start to life in handicap company at Warwick before filling the runner-up spot at Hereford. Nicky Martin's mare is expected to benefit from stepping up a couple of furlongs in trip and a further 3lb rise doesn't appear likely to stop her. Fine By Her benefited from switching back to hurdles when scoring at Fakenham in June and is expected to be competitive once again. Any market support for Bobbigrey on her handicap debut should be noted.
APPLES MOON is going the right way in handicaps and can make the long journey from Nicky Martin's Somerset base worthwhile. Lenebane has yet to win but has been knocking on the door lately and should be on the premises again. Talysh is a handicap newcomer to note in the betting for a stable which had one with a similar profile win nicely last week.
Nicky Martin's APPLES MOON (nap) found another unexposed mare just too good at Hereford but that was still a good effort.
