8/1

Shaped well after 3 months off when 7¼ lengths third of 13 to Regarding Ruth at Newbury (24.2f) 29 days ago, running on from much further back than leading pair. Much respected from unchanged mark.

Form: 51/86-03

Small Present²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Ryan Mania| T: Mrs S J Smith| OR: 129| D

10/3

Low-mileage 6-y-o who progressed further to follow up his Catterick success at Doncaster (24.4f) 4 weeks ago, staying on well. More to come, especially with yard going better now.

12/1

Versatile performer who scored at Kempton (24.5f) in November. Kept busy on the Flat/in jumpers bumpers prior to running well from 7 lb higher at Doncaster (24.4f). Likely to remain competitive.

Form: 17-1122

5/1

Produced his best effort to date in this sphere when 5½ lengths second of 13 to Regarding Ruth in handicap hurdle (14/1) at Newbury (24.2f, good) 29 days ago. Must enter calculations.

Form: 12/91-62

20/1

Is a bit up and down but ran well after 3 months off when sixth of 13 to Regarding Ruth in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Newbury (24.2f, good) 29 days ago, despite not being ideally placed. Eased 1 lb.

Form: 61P836

Canyon City²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: Lily Pinchin⁽⁵⁾| T: N B King| OR: 126| C

20/1

Useful hurdler at best but running a long way below form this season. Others preferred.

Form: P3-35P8

Kansas City Chief^p¹⁶

Age: 12| Weight: 11-3| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 126| D

22/1

Veteran who finished a remote third at Wincanton prior to unseating at the fifth in the Pertemps Final at the Cheltenham Festival. Work to do.

Form: 6-6373U

Crossgalesfamegame⁶⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Broughton⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 123

22/1

Stepped up on her comeback run in a hot race at Wincanton when third in a mares handicap(20.2f) at Cheltenham in December. Ran poorly at Plumpton a month later but is the type to bounce back quickly.

Form: 163-636

Bailarico^b⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽⁷⁾| T: W Greatrex| OR: 122| D

50/1

Won 25f Catterick handicap hurdle in December and also landed an AW jumpers bumper in February, but current mark looks too high judged on last week’s Musselburgh showing.

Form: 554165

Silent Assistant¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 121| D

12/1

Fairly useful maiden hurdler who posted a respectable fourth in 20.6f handicap at Market Rasen 10 days ago, plodding on. This step back up in trip will suit.

Form: 44-2204

Exod'ela^p,t³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 120| D

16/1

Fair hurdler who ran below form at Kempton and Catterick prior to falling at Exeter last time. Bit to prove in refitted cheekpieces.

Form: 53206F

Outonpatrol²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Adrian Heskin| T: A King| OR: 120| D

14/1

Proved a different proposition when scoring on Warwick handicap bow (21f) in September. Solid efforts since, shaping better than distance beaten suggests behind Regarding Ruth at Newbury last time.

Form: 24-1327

Republican⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: J J Burke| T: O Sherwood| OR: 120

9/1

Fairly useful hurdler who was running well over fences this season before posting respectable fifth in 3m Ascot handicap back in this sphere 42 days ago, though didn't find as much as seemed likely.

Form: 126-425

Tango Boy^p1¹²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 117| BF

12/1

Bumper winner who progressed with each run over hurdles last term. Satisfactory return when fifth at Cheltenham but went backwards when pulled up at Wincanton a month later. Cheekpieces on.

Form: 1/322-5P

Tel'art^b²²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-1| J: Kielan Woods| T: B Pauling| OR: 110

33/1

Improved to bag two handicaps at up to 2¾m last summer, but his recent form is much less encouraging, again when well at Sandown 22 days ago. Lots to prove back up in trip.

Forecasts

Small Present (10/3), Iwilldoit (5/1), Regarding Ruth (6/1), Colonial Dreams (8/1), Republican (9/1), Ashtown Lad (10/1), Tango Boy (12/1), Silent Assistant (12/1), Supakalanistic (12/1), Outonpatrol (14/1), Exod'ela (16/1), Canyon City (20/1), Neverbeen To Paris (20/1), Kansas City Chief (22/1), Crossgalesfamegame (22/1), Tel'art (33/1), Bailarico (50/1)

SMALL PRESENT has really clicked into gear of late and there's a good chance there's more to come yet, especially with his yard going better now, so he's an appealing candidate. Regarding Ruth and Colonial Dreams head the opposition.
