Selected odds by:

Didntgotwenty¹⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Sean Quinlan| T: M Todhunter

33/1

Soldier of Fortune gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Law Ella and winning pointer/fair hurdler Westy Fox, stays 25f. Unplaced both starts in Irish points, last of 4 finishers latest one in May. Market can guide.

Dino Bellagio²⁸¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| D

20/1

Dual bumper winner but offered little over hurdles at Bangor and Doncaster (cheekpieces on) last season. More needed after 9 months off.

Form: 1010/P0-

Gentleman Bill¹⁸⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| D

4/1

Winning pointer who landed 7-runner bumper at Newcastle (16.9f, heavy) on NH debut 6 months ago. Much respected on his hurdles debut.

Form: U11-

Some Bro¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford

66/1

Placed a couple of times between the flags but only modest form in two runs over hurdles at Punchestown and Hexham. Needs to step forward.

Form: 63F42-4

Woodland Park¹⁹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| D

9/4

Confirmed debut promise when bagging 10-runner bumper at Market Rasen (16.6f, good to soft) 6 months ago. Interesting hurdling debutant.

Form: 31-

Yhprum's Law³²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| BF

10/1

Kayf Tara gelding fetched €92,000 as a 3-y-o. Hinted at promise when sixth of 10 in bumper (3/1) at Market Rasen (16.6f, soft) on NH debut 10 months ago. In top hands so considered now going over hurdles.

Form: 6-

I Wish You¹⁷⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: P W Wadge⁽³⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 107| BF

9/2

Shaped with promise when runner-up on all his four outings last season, ending in juvenile hurdle at Hexham (2m, heavy) in April. The form pick on his return.

Form: 2222-

Vampire Slayer¹⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Callum Bewley| T: D Bourke

100/1

Fair maiden on the Flat and he came in second of 7 in handicap here (11.2f) in May. Off since but not ruled out back in this sphere.

Form: 8-

Bellmount Lady¹¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Harry Reed| T: T Davidson

100/1

Well held a pair of bumpers at Kelso and Hexham in early summer. Lots more required now making her hurdles debut.

Form: 08

La Marquise^t¹⁸⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden

15/8

A dual bumper winner who signed off last term with an excellent third of 16 in Grade 2 Aintree bumper in April. Very much one to consider now starting out in this sphere.

Form: 1713-

Windsor Wife¹⁶⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Craig Nichol| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

16/1

£10,000 3-y-o, £15,000 4-y-o, Doyen filly. Dam fair 19f chase winner. Dead-heated for first sole outing in Irish points in May so she's a respected hurdling newcomer.

Forecasts

La Marquise (2/1), Woodland Park (9/4), Gentleman Bill (5/1), I Wish You (11/2), Yhprum's Law (10/1), Windsor Wife (10/1), Dino Bellagio (33/1), Vampire Slayer (50/1), Didntgotwenty (66/1), Some Bro (66/1), Bellmount Lady (150/1)

Jamie Snowden's LA MARQUISE showed plenty in bumpers last season so is fancied to make a winning start in this sphere at the chief expense of form choice I Wish You who might have to settle for second yet again. Woodland Park, Windsor Wife and Gentleman Bill are other hurdling debutants who could have a say.
