Walden Princep,t9
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-12| J: P J Brennan| T: Mrs S Leech| OR:  99| CD
11/4
Improved effort dropping in grade when runner-up over 2m at Uttoxeter (good-to-soft) just over a week ago. Races off the same mark today and one to note in this contest.
2
Horse silk
Saffron Prince23
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-12| J: T Scudamore| T: D G Bridgwater| OR:  99| D
9/1
Placed twice since winning over an extended 2m at Newton Abbot (good-to-soft) in July. Raised 2lb for his latest second and likely to run well with trip and ground to suit today.
3
Horse silk
Deise Vup30
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-10| J: J E Moore| T: R Brotherton| OR:  97
11/1
Put a couple of non-completions behind him when a well beaten third at Worcester in August and beaten 25L at the same course subsequently. More needed if he's to take this.
4
Horse silk
Rakaia Rosa23
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-9| J: Dave Crosse| T: D L Williams| OR:  96
33/1
Usually front runs and put a disappointing effort behind her when finishing third at Fontwell (2m2f, good) last month. Work to do if she's to reverse form with Saffron Prince on that running.
5
Horse silk
Money For Nothingb,t35
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-7| J: James Best| T: J Farrelly| OR:  94
16/1
Put a couple of disappointing hurdles runs for this yard behind him when finishing 11L fourth of six at Newton Abbot (good) over an extended 2m last time out. Interesting to see how he fares today.
6
Horse silk
Carnaross26
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-3| J: J Kington(3)| T: Julia Brooke| OR:  90| D
16/1
In good form back in 2015 but well beaten in two outings since finishing third at Kelso (2m1f, soft) in November of that year. Entitled to improve for last months seasonal debut at Sedgefield.
7
Horse silk
No No Cardinalp64
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-2| J: Theo Gillard(7)| T: Mark Gillard| OR:  89| D
33/1
Successful on good-to-firm ground over an extended 2m at Newton Abbot in June but well held on softer ground there subsequently. Good ground forecast today should see him in a better light.
8
Horse silk
Gin And Tonicp26
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-13| J: S Bowen| T: M Wigham| OR:  86| D
15/2
Well beaten in the main since winning on soft ground at Fakenham in a 2m handicap hurdle in March last year. Handicap mark is falling as a result and market support would be noteworthy today.
9
Horse silk
Accessallareasp24
Age: 12|  Weight: 10-13| J: Charlie Hammond(7)| T: S-J Davies| OR:  86| CD
22/1
Six time winner including over an extended 2m at Newton Abbot (good) in August. Well held from out of the handicap last time and not written off just yet.
10
Horse silk
Roman Numeral19
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-9| J: Nathan Moscrop(5)| T: D Thompson| OR:  82| CD
7/1
Stepped up on recent efforts when finishing 5L second on heavy ground over an extended 1m7f at Hexham last time out. Races off a 2lb higher mark today and rated 5lb higher than when winning over C&D in July.
11
Horse silk
Toe To Toe30
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-4| J: Mitchell Bastyan(7)| T: Mrs D A Hamer| OR:  77| D
7/2
In decent form since joining this yard and put in his best effort in some time when finishing runner-up from out of the handicap at Worcester (good) last time out and interesting if repeating that effort.

Forecasts

Walden Prince (11/4), Toe To Toe (7/2), Roman Numeral (7/1), Gin And Tonic (15/2), Saffron Prince (9/1), Deise Vu (11/1), Money For Nothing (16/1), Carnaross (16/1), Accessallareas (22/1), Rakaia Rosa (33/1), No No Cardinal (33/1)

Verdict

SAFFRON PRINCE can register his third career victory by taking the opening event on the card. The selection wasn't beaten far when finishing runner-up last time and can get the better of top weight Walden Prince who finished a close second off this mark last time out whilst bottom weight Toe To Toe can register another placing receiving weight from all of his rivals today.
  1. Saffron Prince
  2. Walden Prince
  3. Toe To Toe
