9/2
Trainer had a winner with his first runner earlier in the week and runs tow in this with this modest Flat maiden being one of them. Hasn't shown much in juvenile hurdles when with his former yard but may do better now he goes handicapping.

16/1
The second runner from this fledging yard and making his debut for the stable but he's still a maiden in his career who has run below form of late and more needed here.

7/1
Usually reserves his best form for Huntingdon (both career wins over fences came there) and looks a better chaser than hurdler. His recent hurdles run off 1lb higher mark (has a lower hurdles than chase mark) and this is only a lowly contest and he could take a hand.

22/1
Managed a runner-up slot on his penultimate start but he's hardly the most trustworthy individual (often reluctant at the start). The cheekpieces return today but his free-going style makes him one to be wary of here.

Magnolia Ridgep36
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-1| J: Miss E Todd(3)| T: M Walford| OR:  89| CD
3/1
Winner of this race last year off a 7lb higher mark but hasn't won since then and the mark has fallen back well below his winning one of last year. Did look to be running back into form lat time so nit discounted for a repeat win here off a mark he should be capable of winning off.

Claude Carterp14
Age: 13|  Weight: 11-1| J: Miss C Walton| T: A C Whillans| OR:  89| CD
12/1
Very much shaped as though he needed his last race after a six month break and should be a little sharper now. Winner is selling and claiming company last summer but this handicap isn't much better and can be given a chance after that last outing.

Finally ended a long losing run when cashing in on a falling mark to win at Huntingdon earlier in the year where he has often run his best races. Just ticking over since but has fallen below his last winning mark.

100/1
Hurdles efforts have been on the decline for a while now and his AW Flat form hardly inspires either and he's best watched here.

My Renaissance9
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-9| J: Miss Emma Yardley(7)| T: S England| OR:  83| D
4/1
Handed a very easy lead when winning at Cartmel in May and made all under and aggressive ride but failed to back that up back at the same venue last time. Still capable off a mark like this especially if he gets a soft lead and a dangerous customer in this grade.

Horse silk
Istimraarp19
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-3| J: Page Fuller| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR:  77
7/1
Probably summed up by his record here of 1/31 and his losing run continues to grow with him operating below his best at the moment.

The Absent Marep279
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-0| J: Tabitha Worsley(5)| T: S-J Davies| OR:  71| D
66/1
Not won for a couple of years when with Gordon Elliott and her recent form is only very modest for this yard and she's easily passed over here.

Horse silk
Rossington49
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-0| J: Amie Waugh(3)| T: J S Wainwright| OR:  71
14/1
Most of his hurdles form is very poor but it may well be worth mentioning that he finished sixth in this last year off a similar mark when a 50/1 chance.
16
Horse silk
The Ferickh1,t35
Age: 11|  Weight: 10-0| J: Miss L L Jenkins(7)| T: B I Case| OR:  69| CD
50/1
Did win a bumper in the dim and distant past when with Alan Swinbank but his hurdles form is poor and he can't be fancied here even in this lowly grade.

Forecasts

Magnolia Ridge (3/1), My Renaissance (4/1), Banff (9/2), Knight Commander (5/1), Jackthejourneyman (7/1), Istimraar (7/1), Sky of Stars (10/1), Claude Carter (12/1), Rossington (14/1), Gold Class (16/1), Court In Session (22/1), Tiradia (28/1), The Ferick (50/1), The Absent Mare (66/1), Steady Major (100/1)

Verdict

Not a great contest to end the card with and last year’s winner Magnolia Ridge could well take this for the second year running after he looked back to form last time out. Jackthejourneyman can be given a chance on some of his form while Claude Carter isn’t ruled out. Both the Olly Murphy runners Banff and Gold Class should be watched in the betting but MY RENAISSANCE who can go from the front and looks more straightforward than most in this might be the most viable option.
  1. My Renaissance
  2. Magnolia Ridge
  3. Jackthejourneyman
