Selected odds by:

Natchez Trace²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: R T Dunne| T: D Carroll| OR: 96

28/1

Fair winner at 12f on Flat who has just run to a modest level at best in this sphere and was below form at Cartmel in July. Poor efforts on the Flat lately and others make more appeal.

Form: 9/436

Geordie Night¹⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Charlie Hammond| T: N Kent| OR: 91

15/2

Unexposed 5-y-o who was unsuited by steady gallop when seventh of 14 on handicap debut at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to soft) in March. Failed to back that up next time and might need this after 6 months off.

Form: 0/9457-5

I Got Stung^p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: K C Bailey| OR: 91

7/1

Offered a bit more than previously when fourth of 15 in a Ludlow novice in October but hasn't fired in handicaps since. Might strip fitter for his return at Ludlow, though.

Form: 540PF-8

Ithaka^t⁴⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Conor Ring| T: R Potter| OR: 91

18/1

Slipping in the weights and there was a glimmer of encouragement when a distant third at Perth last time. Refitted with tongue strap and worth a market check.

Form: P39-753

G'day Aussie^t²

Age: 11| Weight: 11-5| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dave Roberts| OR: 87| C

28/1

Veteran now but has shaped as if retaining ability both starts this season, albeit his latest effort came only 2 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 1792-45

East Eagle^t³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 88

10/1

Creditable second of 12 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good, 40/1) 30 days ago, running on. Lightly raced and could build on that, so capable of making his presence felt.

Form: 5485S2

Western Glen³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: G Boanas| OR: 85

6/1

Remains winless following 13 attempts over hurdles but she has been knocking on the door, set for second when falling over C&D last time. One to consider.

Form: P6322F

Happy Index^p⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 85

13/8

Confirmed promise of yard debut when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at Perth in September. Up 9 lb for that but remains of firm interest up in trip.

Form: 8455-21

No Worries^p,t³⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 10-12| J: Dylan Johnston⁽³⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 80

5/2

8/1, improved to win 11-runner handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (19.6f, good) 37 days ago. That was impressive and he deserves respect after a rise.

Form: 9P-4621

Forecasts

Happy Index (2/1), No Worries (3/1), Western Glen (6/1), East Eagle (7/1), I Got Stung (10/1), Geordie Night (12/1), Ithaka (14/1), Natchez Trace (20/1), G'day Aussie (20/1)

Last-time-out winners HAPPY INDEX and No Worries could dominate this, with preference for the former, who is the less exposed of the pair. Western Glen has been holding her form well and should make her presence felt if none the worse for a recent fall here.
