Badbury Rings¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: N P Mulholland

200/1

From a good jumps family and runner-up second (only completed) of 2 starts in points but has looked a longer-term project in a couple of runs over timber thus far.

Form: U22-360

Dangerous Touch²²

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

28/1

£135,000 buy after finishing runner-up sole outing in Irish points but has yet to make a real impact in bumpers or on debut in this sphere at Exeter last month.

Form: 247-6

Doctor Kildare²⁰⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| CD

13/8

Built on encouraging NH debut when landing 12-runner bumper at this course (soft) in April and has to be taken seriously on switch to hurdling.

Form: 41-

Gentleman Bill²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| D

13/2

Winning pointer who landed a Newcastle bumper on NH debut in April and shaped as if better for run when third of 10 in novice at Carlisle (17.2f, soft) on hurdles bow 27 days ago. Should be more to come yet.

Form: U11-3

Good Company

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

125/1

Dragon Dancer gelding. Dam, little show in bumper/over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser who became unreliable (stayed 3½m) Swincombe Rock. Makes NH debut here but looks yard second string judged by jockey bookings.

Form:

Gwennie May Star²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

40/1

Offered something to work on both starts in bumpers 3 months apart and made late headway on second run over hurdles at Ludlow last month. Others more convincing, though.

Form: 9-3P8

I'm A Lumberjack²¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King

9/4

Posted fairly-useful form in bumpers last term including third in listed company at Newbury in February. Far from disgraced in Grade 2 at Aintree on final outing and must be of interest on hurdles debut.

Form: 2/2639-

Kadjar Des Mottes²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr

40/1

Left clear to win his sole outing in points but held back by inexperience when sixth of 7 in bumper at Carlisle (17.2f, soft) on NH debut 27 days ago. Improvement required on switch to hurdling.

Form: 1-6

Oh My Johnny²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White

11/2

Disputing lead when falling late on sole start in points and posted promising fourth of 12 in novice at Ludlow (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 20 days ago. Should progress and is one for the shortlist.

Form: F4

Royal King¹⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Jack Andrews⁽³⁾| T: T Ellis| OR: 112

8/1

Capable of fair form over fences in France but fell at Auteuil when last seen in June and is likely best watched starting off for new yard over the smaller obstacles here.

Form: 7P-45F

Forecasts

Doctor Kildare (13/8), I'm A Lumberjack (9/4), Oh My Johnny (11/2), Gentleman Bill (13/2), Royal King (8/1), Winchmore Hill (20/1), Dangerous Touch (28/1), Kadjar Des Mottes (40/1), Gwennie May Star (40/1), Good Company (125/1), Badbury Rings (200/1)

I'M A LUMBERJACK is from a good jumping family and acquitted himself well in bumpers last term. He can make a successful switch to hurdling. Oh My Johnny made a good start over timber at Ludlow last month and is feared most, whilst Doctor Kildare is also of interest on his first outing in this sphere.
