Uttoxeter maiden (2½m) winner but let go cheaply out of Nicky Henderson's stable and was well held after 4 months off at Huntingdon last time.

20/1
Successful at Hereford in November 2020 but offered little after 14 months off at Doncaster in March. Has something to prove at present but longer trip could suit judged on pedigree.

Fairly useful in bumpers and best run over hurdles when second in 6-runner maiden at Uttoxeter in September. Didn't look straightforward when failing to land a gamble in November and has lost way since.

10/1
Modest maiden who got back on track when second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good to soft) 28 days ago, despite not always jumping fluently. In the mix if reproducing that.

8/1
Twelve runs since last win in 2020. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ran best race since returning to hurdles when second of 14 in a C&D handicap 31 days ago, running on. Nudged up 3 lb but possibilities with a repeat.

Not one to trust but ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces on the back of 3 months off and a breathing operation at Exeter 36 days ago and has possibilities if building on that.

Remains a maiden after 17 NH runs but stepped up on her reappearance when fourth of 9 in handicap chase at Exeter (24.2f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles.

Poor maiden under Rules who fared no better in a first-time visor at Wincanton (21.4f, good) last time. Easy to oppose from out of the weights.

Forecasts

Tango Echo Charlie (9/4), Storm Lord (4/1), Farceur De Maulne (9/2), Starlyte (5/1), Caspers Court (8/1), Get Supreme (9/1), Theatre Mix (9/1), Miss Milano (10/1), Just Go For It (10/1), Aviewtosea (12/1), Bellamy's Grey (16/1), Gold Leader (18/1), Imperial Icon (20/1), Zulu Dawn (40/1), Barely Famous (80/1), Comeragh Lad (100/1), Force De Frap (100/1)

Verdict

TANGO ECHO CHARLIE made a mockery of his mark when cruising clear to score by 7 lengths at Uttoxeter last week, so he has to be considered the one to beat turned out quickly under a penalty. Farceur de Maulne and Caspers Court are a couple of potential threats.
