Navajo Indy²⁰⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽³⁾| T: T Symonds| OR: 116

9/4

Fairly useful bumper winner who showed plenty when runner-up first 2 outings over hurdles. Failed to capitalise on what had looked a very good opportunity at Fontwell in February but made no mistake at Wincanton when last seen in April. Should be in the mix under a penalty on reappearance.

Not Now Nathaniel^h¹²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 115| BF| CD

2/1

Debut bumper winner who also made a successful start over hurdles (fitted with a hood) in 4-runner novice at Aintree in May. Looked slightly more straightforward when following up over C&D and didn't do a lot wrong under a penalty when second at Cartmel in June.

Form: 137-112

Bennettshill⁵²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: Henry Oliver

18/1

Third foal, dam, unraced, closely related to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 2¾m) Changing Times. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (May 2023) but absent since.

Form: 5/1-

Brockarno¹⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Lee Edwards| T: B Clarke

100/1

Showed promise in a bumper on his debut in February 2023 but has failed to repeat that subsequently, not given a hard time once chance of winning had gone here in May.

Form: 36/0-63

Fond Farewell⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

150/1

Modest handicapper at best on Flat (should stay 2m), down the field both starts for current yard. Hurdles debut was hardly brimming with promise.

Form: 6

Gamesters Guy²⁰⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| D

3/1

Made the ideal start with his stable going well when landing an 8-runner bumper at Uttoxeter and also ran out a ready winner at Carlisle in April. Pretty useful hurdles prospect so demands serious respect.

Form: 131-

Land Of Moon¹⁶⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: W GreatrexWS

14/1

Backed and shaped encouragingly first time up under a ride of exaggerated patience in Lingfield AW bumper in December. Not in the same form twice since on turf and now goes hurdling on the back of a breathing operation.

Form: 30-4

Let's Sail Away¹⁸⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey| BF

12/1

Successful on his sole outing in points but has displayed more than his share of temperament over hurdles.

Form: 154-

GAMESTERS GUY was talented enough to win a couple of bumpers last season and in receipt of weight from the previous hurdles winners Navajo Indy and Not Now Nathaniel, he looks the way to go.
