1st (5)  (8/15 +34%)Navajo Indy |
8/15(+34%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Navajo Indy 8/15, Fairly useful bumper winner who showed plenty when runner-up first 2 outings over hurdles. Failed to capitalise on what had looked a very good opportunity at Fontwell last time but still sets the standard. Turned over at odds-on last time but still ran okay and this looks an easier race. |
|||
2nd (10)  (11/2 -175%)Northern Air |
11/2(-175%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Northern Air 11/2, Easy winner of sole outing in points but ran to only a modest level when sixth of 9 in Newbury bumper (16.3f, soft) on Rules debut 37 days ago. Could do much better now hurdling. Irish point winner; appeared to perform beneath market expectations in her bumper. |
|||
3rd (3)  (40/1 +39%)Inside I'm Dancin |
40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Inside I'm Dancin 40/1, €49,000 3-y-o, Leading Light gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdle winner/smart chaser Assemble and bumper winner Miracle In Medinah, stayed 3¼m. Fourth both starts in Irish points (latest Dec 2023). His fourths in two points were fairly remote and he's an unlikely winner on rules debut. |
|||
4th (7)  (11/1 +67%)Coin Basket |
11/1(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Coin Basket 11/1, Bumper winner who went backwards from hurdling debut on first run since leaving Anthony Charlton when fifth of 6 in maiden at Chepstow (23.6f, soft) last week. Significantly down in trip. Her bumper win was a long time ago; didn't run well enough last time to fancy today. |
|||
5th (6)  (15/2 -88%)The Northernlights |
15/2(-88%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) The Northernlights 15/2, Runner-up in a point bumper and shaped with some encouragement when fifth in a bumper at Cheltenham in October. Effort flattened out at Doncaster but offered something to work on sent hurdling when third at Warwick (2m) last month. Probably relying on Navajo Indy being off his game if he's to make the breakthrough. |
|||
6th (4)  (80/1 -60%)Meraki Mist |
80/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Meraki Mist 80/1, Down the field in bumpers and on both completed starts over hurdles. Showed a bit more last time here (soft) when staying on into a remote fifth. |
|||
7th (9)  (9/1 +44%)Golden Millie |
9/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Golden Millie 9/1, Fair bumper winner last season who offered something to work on starting out over hurdles when fifth in mares' novice company at Lingfield (2m) back in December. However, disappointed over C&D 4 months later. Fair bumper form but hasn't looked a natural over hurdles and has to raise her game. |
|||
8th (2)  (50/1 -150%)Fort Lauderdale |
50/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fort Lauderdale 50/1, Down the field in 2 bumpers for Lucinda Russell so a big step forward required on this switch to hurdling. Godolphin castoff who was down the field in two bumpers for Lucinda Russell. |
|||
9th (1)  (200/1 -100%)Admiral Fitz |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Admiral Fitz 200/1, Runner-up completed start in points but has shown little in 2 maiden hurdles. 125-1 when tailed off on soft ground here 12 days ago and brings no form claims. |
|||
10th (8)  (150/1 -50%)Far Away West |
150/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Far Away West 150/1, Well held in Cork bumper and novice selling hurdle at Exeter. Tailed off in a seller at Exeter two weeks ago (2m2f, heavy) when tried in a hood. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
This looks to be a good opportunity for NAVAJO INDY to return to the winner's enclosure. Tom Symonds' charge has placed form behind some useful rivals this season and, after being turned over at short odds over 2m3f at Fontwell on his most recent start, he should be tough to stop back over this more suitable distance in maiden company. Point-to-point winner Northern Air finished down the field in a Newbury bumper on her Rules debut last month, but she is open to any amount of improvement and commands attention. The Northernlights arrives on the back of a respectable third over 2m at Warwick and he completes the shortlist.
The fact NORTHERN AIR made her Rules debut in a Newbury bumper suggests her connections must hold her in quite high regard and, although she ran to only a modest level, a lot better can be expected on this switch to hurdling. Standard setter Navajo Indy is an obvious threat, while The Northernlights makes most appeal of the remainder.
The 5yo NAVAJO INDY would appear to be in pole position on form despite coming up short last time when odds-on.

1st (3)  (10/3 -21%)Fashion's Model |
10/3(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Fashion's Model 10/3, Winning pointer who was runner-up over 3m at Ludlow in her second chase and good chance on the form of her Warwick novice fourth next time. Ran too bad to be true in Ffos Las race won by Committee of One but turned out quickly and probably worth another chance. Last week's run at Ffos Las was way below her best form and she could bounce back. |
|||
2nd (4)  (9/4 +32%)Firefly Lane |
9/4(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Firefly Lane 9/4, Winning pointer who was again out of the weights but produced her best effort to date when second in similar event at Taunton under this rider a fortnight ago. Will need a bit more to go one better. Second from 10lb out of the weights last time; now 3lb higher but that was a career best. |
|||
3rd (5)  (11/1 -100%)C'est Bleu |
11/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) C'est Bleu 11/1, Second in a point bumper but not fluent and little promise in mares hurdles (tongue tied latest start). Makes chase debut. Goes chasing with an awful lot to prove but this is her handicap debut. |
|||
4th (1)  (5/2 +58%)Grasse D'oliverie |
5/2(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Grasse D'oliverie 5/2, French recruit who won handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f) this time last year. Yet to fire this term, including over fences, but now lurks on a very tempting mark. Winning hurdler off 5lb higher; minor chase form, though did show a bit more last time. |
|||
5th (2)  (9/2 -125%)Committee Of One |
9/2(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Committee Of One 9/2, Bounced back to form to record a first success over fences at Ffos Las (19.4f, heavy) a week ago, her stamina shining through. Key player under a penalty. Ran on to lead late in the day at Ffos Las last week; turns out here under a penalty. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
In a trappy-looking affair, FIREFLY LANE gets the tentative vote to come home in front. Jimmy Frost's charge finished an admirable second over an extended 2m5f at Taunton most recently and, nudged up just 3lb and dropping slightly in trip, she can go one place better today. Committee Of One scored in determined fashion over an extended 2m3f at Ffos Las last month but a 7lb penalty demands more from her, while Grasse D'oliverie represents an in-form stable and cannot be dismissed.
FASHION'S MODEL ran too badly to be true in the mud at Ffos Las recently, a race won by the re-opposing Committee of One, and she's worth another chance off a tempting mark. Grasse d'Oliverie is very well handicapped and came good last spring.
There was talk of retirement for COMMITTEE OF ONE after last week's win but she's out again under a penalty and can follow up.

1st (3)  (3/1 -50%)Royal Mer |
3/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Royal Mer 3/1, Has taken his form up a notch or two since being switched over fences this season, notching his fourth success of the campaign at Wetherby (15.2f, heavy) 11 days ago. Handicapper has taken a swipe with a 9 lb rise, but he may not have finished improving. Big chance. Improving; has another 9lb to contend with in a higher grade but a danger to all. |
|||
2nd (2)  (9/2 -13%)Mount Tempest |
9/2(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mount Tempest 9/2, Improved for the fitting of blinkers when scoring at Sandown and Wetherby either side of Christmas. Solid third back at Sandown (15.4f, soft) later in January but seems to have gone off the boil on both starts since. Headgear back on. Has to get back on track but only 4lb higher than for clearcut win at Wetherby in January. |
|||
3rd (1)  (10/3 +5%)Gustavian |
10/3(+5%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Gustavian 10/3, Sole success over fences to date came in 3-runner affair at Exeter (24.2f) last season. Largely creditable efforts since, but failed to get into much of a jumping rhythm when finishing down the field at Newbury (19.8f, good to soft) just over 2 weeks ago. Drops in grade/trip. This is a drop in class from good Newbury handicaps won by a very useful type. |
|||
4th (5)  (4/1 +53%)Hatos |
4/1(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Hatos 4/1, Off the mark in this sphere at Ffos Las (16f) in February and improved when following up in 4-runner handicap over C&D (heavy) 16 days later. Not in same form at Leicester next time and fared even worse in a change of headgear back here (20.2f, heavy) since. Blinkers back on. 4lb higher than for C&D win on heavy in February but needs to return to that level of form. |
|||
5th (4)  (10/3 -21%)Force De Frap |
10/3(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Force De Frap 10/3, Dual winner over hurdles last term and repeated the feat over fences with successes at Bangor and Ludlow this term. Unlucky to bump into one even more progressive than himself at Stratford (17f, heavy) last month and this fluent traveller can go very close again. On a roll and last time at Stratford he beat all bar a Skelton improver. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
ROYAL MER looked every inch a chaser to keep on the right side of when scoring again over 1m7f at Wetherby most recently, bounding clear after the last to win comfortably, and off a 9lb higher mark, he can bring up the hat-trick for the in-form David Pipe team. Mount Tempest showed progressive form in the winter and even though that improvement seems to have plateaued somewhat, he is only 4lb above his last winning mark and warrants respect for title-chasing Dan Skelton. The class-dropping Gustavian has the ability to get involved in a race of this nature, but the ease in trip is a concern.
ROYAL MER has enjoyed a terrific first season over the larger obstacles and David Pipe's 6-y-o is fancied to add victory number 5 to his tally at the expense of Force de Frap, who was unlucky to bump into one even more progressive than himself at Stratford 4 weeks ago and should be bang there again. Mount Tempest can edge out Gustavian for third spot.
The downgraded GUSTAVIAN could be interesting under a positive ride over 2m. He can see off the progressive Royal Mer.

1st (6)  (10/1 +17%)Issam |
10/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Issam 10/1, Consistent sort who scored at Exeter in December. Rare poor run when fifteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ascot (19.3f, good to soft) 51 days ago. Sort to bounce back with cheekpieces added. Won't mind returning to softer conditions and the cheekpieces might trigger something. |
|||
2nd (8)  (6/1 +14%)Resplendent Grey |
6/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Resplendent Grey 6/1, Bagged his first 2 starts over hurdles last term and enhanced his form when second in Grade 2 on reappearance at Chepstow. Below that form when fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, soft) 44 days ago but no surprise to see him bounce back here. Won three times but 0-3 in handicaps and been no closer than about 8l behind the winner. |
|||
3rd (3)  (4/1 +0%)Monviel |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Monviel 4/1, Course winner who had cheekpieces on for 1st time when a good second of 8 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, heavy) 23 days ago, sticking to his task. Merits consideration despite taking a 3 lb rise. Went down only narrowly in a 2m4f handicap at Uttoxeter 23 days ago. |
|||
4th (4)  (11/4 +0%)Toss Of A Coin |
11/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Toss Of A Coin 11/4, €150,000 recruit from the pointing field who has landed the odds in novice hurdles around 2m4f at Exeter and Newton Abbot this winter. Can be expected to improve further and holds solid claims now handicapping. Point winner who is 2-2 in novices and brings plenty of potential into handicaps. |
|||
5th (9)  (4/1 +20%)Home Free |
4/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Home Free 4/1, Duly landed the odds on his third start in this sphere in 3-runner novice at Lingfield (2m, heavy) last month. Looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut. Big shout. Odds-on winner of a maiden and should have a future in handicaps off this sort of mark. |
|||
6th (2)  (17/2 +29%)Bourbali |
17/2(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bourbali 17/2, Useful 2m2f winner over fences but saddle slipped for second time this term when pulled up in handicap chase at Plumpton (19.8f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Needs to settle down back over hurdles. Saddle slipped when pulled up over fences last week; very capable hurdler off this mark. |
|||
7th (5)  (10/1 +38%)American Sniper |
10/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) American Sniper 10/1, Resumed winning ways in first-time tongue strap at Cheltenham (21f) in November but below that form at Taunton and Newton Abbot since, finding nothing on latter occasion. Has a bit to prove now. Found little over 3m last time; better expected back in trip with his yard going well. |
|||
8th (1)  (18/1 -80%)Hardy Du Seuil |
18/1(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Hardy Du Seuil 18/1, Fairly useful 2m hurdles/chase winner at his best but pulled up in Grand Annual at Cheltenham 26 days ago, tailing off long way out. More needed back over hurdles. Pulled up in the Grand Annual latest; had good spell over hurdles at start of last year. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
MONVIEL looked a rejuvenated character at Uttoxeter when narrowly denied close home over this trip and he appears to hold every chance now off 3lb higher for his in-form connections. A taking winner of both starts since joining Paul Nicholls from the point-to-point scene, Toss Of A Coin must enter calculations on his handicap debut, while Home Free has to be considered closely as well.
A few with chances but Dan Skelton's lightly-raced HOME FREE looks to have been let in lightly for his first venture into handicap company so he gets the vote. In-form pair Toss of A Coin and Monviel are both highly respected too.
It was a very winnable maiden that HOME FREE (nap) won at Lingfield but there's good reason to believe he might be well in here.

1st (4)  (9/2 +36%)Duke Of Moravia |
9/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Duke Of Moravia 9/2, Reached the frame all 4 hurdles starts last season and, though below par initially this time round, he took a step back in the right direction when third of 12 in a Southwell handicap (3m, soft) in January. Possibilities if the first-time cheekpieces help eke out a little more. Returns from a break with cheekpieces added and today's shorter trip could be favourable. |
|||
2nd (7)  (2/1 +0%)Robber's Bridge |
2/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Robber's Bridge 2/1, 11/8, career best when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at this course (15f, heavy) 32 days ago, always holding on. Runner-up over this longer trip before. Should remain competitive after a 6 lb rise. Up 6lb for his course win but the second went one better at Uttoxeter on Saturday. |
|||
3rd (2)  (4/1 +38%)Moytier |
4/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Moytier 4/1, Had been shaping up well prior to opening his account in ready fashion in a chase here in February. Not in the same form when well-held third back here 12 days ago. Now reverts to hurdles. Recent winning chaser; back hurdling off a lower mark and has a chance at these weights. |
|||
4th (8)  (11/1 +31%)Bellamy's Grey |
11/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Bellamy's Grey 11/1, Unreliable in the main but this veteran ran with credit when reaching the frame twice here in February. Latest Fontwell fourth no more than respectable, though. Runner-up over 2m4f here in February but he's a quirky veteran who often races very lazily. |
|||
5th (5)  (5/1 -43%)Only Fools |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Only Fools 5/1, Showed improved form to gain a second hurdle success at Fontwell (19f, heavy) last month. Good second of 12 at Hereford since and a further 2 lb nudge is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Good run under a penalty at Hereford only to bump into a rejuvenated winner. |
|||
6th (6)  (6/1 +14%)Robinsville |
6/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Robinsville 6/1, Yet to taste success but ran respectably in first-time tongue strap (had wind operation prior) when fourth of 14 in handicap at Taunton (3m, soft) 4 weeks ago. Looks fairly handicapped if he can builds on that. Back to form after wind surgery when fourth at Taunton behind a progressive winner. |
|||
7th (3)  (50/1 -150%)No Way Pedro |
50/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) No Way Pedro 50/1, 3-3 in Britain for Brian Barr last summer but offered little on recent comeback run for new trainer at Huntingdon. Can only be watched this time. Last summer's hat-trick (2m-2m4f) came on good ground; opposable under these conditions. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Now that the penny has dropped for ROBBER'S BRIDGE with a comfortable success here last time out, the son of Frammassone may well improve for going back up in trip and a 6lb rise looks manageable. Only worn down late on over slightly shorter at Hereford in her bid for the double last month, Only Fools is capable of being in the shake-up, along with Moytier, who was a winner over fences here on his penultimate outing.
David Pipe has his team in good nick and ONLY FOOLS might be able to land a third success of the season. Robinsville made a sound return from wind surgery at Taunton 4 weeks ago and is second choice ahead of Libor Lad.
The suggestion is ROBBER'S BRIDGE whose last two races have worked out well and he still looks on a workable mark.

1st (5)  (6/1 -118%)Supervisor |
6/1(-118%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Supervisor 6/1, Low-mileage 10-y-o put it all together when opening his account in a handicap chase at Ludlow (23.8f, heavy) on belated return in February. Probably best not to read too much into his recent Newbury defeat in what turned out to be a highly unorthodox race. Strong claims. In form before struggling with a rise in class at Newbury (behind First Lord De Cuet). |
|||
2nd (2)  (13/2 -86%)Champagne Court |
13/2(-86%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Champagne Court 13/2, Unseated rider back from a 13-month absence at Sandown in February but no such mishaps when second in a 4-runner handicap at Statford (22.6f, heavy) where he pulled clear of the rest with the winner. Definite chance off the same mark. Second of four at Stratford (2m6f, heavy) on his second run back from a layoff. |
|||
3rd (1)  (11/4 +0%)First Lord De Cuet |
11/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) First Lord De Cuet 11/4, Produced one of his best efforts in this sphere when second to Anglers Crag at Market Rasen (23.8f, good to soft) in January. However, he hasn't quite matched that level in 3 subsequent starts and record over fences now stands at 0-13. Dual hurdle winner but 0-13 over fences, finishing runner-up six times. |
|||
4th (3)  (9/4 +25%)Copperhead |
9/4(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Copperhead 9/4, Hasn't really looked like winning a race since his fine novice campaign back in 2019/20 but efforts in defeat this season have been largely solid. On the downside, his latest display when favourite for a veterans' event at Newbury was lacklustre and he's opposable on the back of that. Frustrating run of defeats has been through no lack of effort; ground a slight concern. |
|||
5th (4)  (10/3 +52%)Golden Sovereign |
10/3(+52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Golden Sovereign 10/3, Opened chase account over this C&D on final start of 2020/21 campaign and placed both completed starts back here last term. However, he hasn't put his best foot forward in 4 appearances since returning to action in December and now has a bit to prove. 3m2f winner on soft ground but hasn't been at his best this season following wind surgery. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
SUPERVISOR (fourth) may have disappointed when finishing five lengths behind the reopposing First Lord De Cuet (third) at Newbury last month, but he was an easy winner at Ludlow in February and the relatively unexposed 10-year-old looks capable of bouncing back. Champagne Court ran his best race for some time when an encouraging second over shorter at Stratford last month, while Copperhead was a good third over C&D in February but is winless since February 2020.
It's easy enough to forgive SUPERVISOR for his reverse at Newbury all things considered and, back on what is likely to be deep ground here, the lightly-raced 10-y-o is the most appealing option in a trappy-looking affair. Champagne Court proved that he retains plenty of ability at Stratford last month and is next on the list ahead of First Lord de Cuet, who was a place ahead of Supervisor at Newbury but he doesn't always find much under pressure and is 0-13 in this sphere.
Nobody would begrudge Copperhead a belated return to the winners' enclosure, but FIRST LORD DE CUET edges preference.
