3/1

Developed into a useful hurdler last season, winning 3 times at around 20f. Looks the type who will improve from his chase debut experience when fourth in novices' handicap at Uttoxeter (20f) 22 days ago and he's unexposed granted this sort of test.

Form: 11R-134

10/3

Useful hurdler who posted a career-best effort when adding to his tally at Bangor (19.6f) in Match. All over a chaser on looks but low-key start in 2 starts in this sphere of late, hanging markedly left when pulled up at Carlisle 6 days ago. Up in trip.

5/6

Ended last season with a brace of hurdles wins at up to 23.6f and shaped well sent chasing after 6 months off when second at Chepstow 4 weeks ago, some inexperienced jumping in dash for home costing him. One to be interested in.

14/1

C&D hurdles winner on last year's reappearance but exploits mixed thereafter for Nigel Twiston-Davies. Starts out for new yard here and appeals as the type to make a chaser but those with experience in this sphere appeal more.

Forecasts

Haiti Couleurs (5/6), Ike Sport (3/1), Uncle Bert (10/3), Equinus (14/1)

A dual winner over hurdles as a novice, HAITI COULEURS took a marked step forward on those efforts when a most encouraging second on return/chase debut at Chepstow 4 weeks ago, some inexperienced jumping arguably costing him. Open to improvement, he's fancied to confirm the promise of that effort and go one place better. Ike Sport may emerge next best, ahead of Uncle Bert, who comes here on something of a recovery mission having been pulled up at Carlisle 6 days ago.
