10/1
Back to winning ways in hunter at Stratford (21f) in May and essentially acquitted himself well in defeat for Gary Hanmer since, third of 8 at Doncaster last time. Should give another good account.

7/2
Made a winning start for this yard on the back of a lengthy absence at Ludlow in January 2023. Proved inconsistent since, but has been given a chance by the handicapper and can't be ruled out.

13/2
Multiple point winner who bagged a small-field Kelso hunter on his latest start under Rules back in May 2023. Winless between the flags since but makes debut for new yard on a tempting mark and unlikely to be found wanting fitness-wise.

11/1
Won his second chase start but has completely lost his way and a drastic turnaround is needed in first-time blinkers.

13/8
Fair maiden over hurdles who dispelled his return/chase debut blip when winning 6-runner handicap chase at Warwick in November. Not disgraced there next time but his jumping needs to improve.

10/1
No real impact in a couple of starts over hurdles for this yard and chasing debut at Southwell didn't contain a great deal of encouragement. Others preferred.

6/1
Dual winner in first campaign over fences (including over C&D) but not so consistent last term. Two of his three outings this season have been creditable and he's not one to rule out.

Forecasts

Heard That (13/8), Fire Dancer (7/2), Pearly Island (9/2), Maninsane (6/1), Abingworth (13/2), Slievegar (13/2), Kayce Dutton (10/1), Envious Editor (10/1), Gloire D'Athon (10/1), Harjo (11/1)

Verdict

The well-treated ABINGWORTH shaped as if back in form last time and is worth taking a chance on in an open race. Envious Editor is likely to give his running and Slievegar is one to monitor in the betting debuting for a new stable.
