Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: H Cobden| T: James Owen

6/4

Fairly useful handicapper on Flat who won at Yarmouth on stable debut in September and followed up at Fakenham on hurdling bow (2m) 18 days ago, soon clear. Open to improvement.

Form: 1

Will Knott¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 120| C

8/15

Fairly useful bumper winner and much improved over hurdles when easily winning 9-runner novice at this course (16.8f) 16 days ago, travelling strongly. Open to further progress, especially now stepping back up in trip.

Form: 138-461

Blue Plan¹²

Laddie Cooper Mia¹⁹⁷

Shaped like a stayer in 3 bumpers so longer trip an obvious plus now hurdling.

Form: 455-

Forecasts

Will Knott (8/15), Charging Thunder (6/4), Laddie Cooper Mia (40/1), Blue Plan (150/1)

A likely match between WILL KNOTT and Charging Thunder. The former created a positive impression when running away with a maiden here 16 days ago and promises to progress again now stepping back up in trip, so he edges the vote.
