Finished ¾L second in a six runner novice handicap hurdle at Kempton (good) over 2m5f last month. Tackles this trip for the first time today and interesting to see how he fares following a 5lb rise in the weights.

11/4
Successful on the Flat at Bath (soft) in June 2016 but remains a maiden over hurdles having finished runner-up five times including at Newton Abbot (good-to-firm) over an extended 2m5f last July. Well held on her hurdling return at Aintree (good) last month.

9/1
Maiden after 29 starts and well held in first time cheekpieces (retained) at Uttoxeter (good-to-soft) over 2m4f last time out. Others make more appeal in this.

Forecasts

Be My Sea (13/8), Princess Roania (11/4), Shantou Tiger (7/2), Arkadios (7/1), Western Storm (8/1), Star Of Namibia (9/1), Solix (12/1), Tribal Dance (66/1)

Verdict

WESTERN STORM can make a winning handicap debut here following a career best fourth at Kempton last time. The selection is taken to get the better of Be My Sea who finished runner-up at the same venue last month while Princess Roania can claim third for a yard who have a 27% strike-rate in recent weeks (3/11).
  1. Western Storm
  2. Be My Sea
  3. Princess Roania
