3/1
Big chasing type who is unbeaten when completing over hurdles, galloping on strongly on first crack at 3m in Grade 2 Prestige Novices' Hurdle at Haydock back in February 2022. Ran no sort of race in the Albert Bartlett the following month and hasn't been seen since. Engaged 1.50 Haydock Saturday.

5/2
Winning pointer who supplemented his hurdles debut victory at Plumpton when bagging Cheltenham Grade 2 (3m) in December. Fourth in Grade 1 Sefton Novices' at Aintree on final outing and he's a very intriguing runner making a quick switch to handicaps over the larger obstacles.

4/1
€150,000 recruit from the pointing field who has landed the odds in novice hurdles around 2m4f at Exeter and Newton Abbot last winter. Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on handicap bow at Wincanton final start and can be expected to improve further now going chasing.

10/3
Has thrived since joining Olly Murphy and fitted with cheekpieces, adding to maiden/novice hurdle wins with a chase debut success at Worcester on return. Only just failed at Warwick since despite labouring badly at one point. Step up in trip will suit and good chance he can resume winning ways.

12/1
Irish point winner who was 2-4 over hurdles. Runner-up twice from 4 starts over fences last term, though last 2 starts have been poor, including at Cheltenham on return. 2 lb out of the weights.

10/1
£40,000 buy after winning an Irish point and bagged a Hexham maiden hurdle and Ayr novice around this time last year but bit disappointing on last 2 starts. Could be a different proposition now sent chasing but this no easy task from 4 lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Shanagh Bob (5/2), Hillcrest (3/1), Roccovango (10/3), Toss Of A Coin (4/1), Inox Allen (10/1), Atlanta Brave (12/1)

Verdict

SHANAGH BOB quickly made up into a useful hurdler last season and this winning pointer may have been let in lightly switched to fences on handicap bow. Roccovango shaped as though this extra distance will suit when his winning run came to an end at Warwick and is the obvious threat, while Grade 2 winning hurdler Hillcrest needs keeping an eye on returning from a lengthy absence.
