Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Benjamin Macey⁽⁸⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 98

8/1

Fair maiden hurdler/chaser but he was pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, soft) 41 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 23-674P

Mister Barclay²⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: T Symonds| OR: 97

3/1

Ended last term with 23f Exeter hurdling success and shaped well switched to chasing when second of 10 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (24f, soft) in May, conceding first run to winner. Very much one to consider despite a lay-off.

Form: 23721-2

Iron D'ex^p²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Finn Lambert| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 96

9/2

Made a winning start over fences at Ludlow in October and posted a solid fourth of 13 in handicap chase here (20.9f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Not discounted stepping up in trip.

Form: PP-1744

Camulus⁴⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Ned Fox⁽³⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 95

7/2

Off 9 months before returning with an encouraging third of 8 in handicap chase at Lingfield (23.5f, good to soft) 40 days ago, fading after 2 out. Weighted to go close off a 2 lb lower mark in his bid for a breakthrough success.

Form: 536/24-3

Get Cracking²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Charlie Price| T: R L Llewellyn| OR: 92

8/1

Successful in points and left his hurdles form behind sent chasing when fifth of 13 in handicap here (20.9f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Can do better still back up in trip.

Form: 136745

Inchagoill Lady^p,t²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Gearoid Harney⁽³⁾| T: K Pickard| OR: 86

5/1

Still a maiden but he posted a good third of 9 in handicap chase at Wincanton (3m1f) 21 days ago. In the mix off the same mark.

Form: 336-P33

Esperti¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: Jay Tidball| T: D A Rees| OR: 75

25/1

Little impact over hurdles for current yard and hasn't fared any better over fences on his last 4 starts, well-held fourth of 10 in 25f handicap at Ffos Las last time. Others appeal more.

Form: P9P454

Mackie Dee⁴²

Age: 13| Weight: 10-4| J: Phillip Armson| T: R J Armson| OR: 74

14/1

It's now 15 runs since his last win in 2022 but he recorded a creditable third of 6 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, good) 42 days ago. Respected back in this sphere.

Form: 60P253

Elpologreg²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Oscar Palmer⁽⁷⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 69

25/1

Got off the mark in 2m handicap chase at Fakenham last February but that was a poor contest and has failed to back it up subsequently.

Form: 57-76P6

Forecasts

Mister Barclay (3/1), Camulus (7/2), Iron D'ex (9/2), Inchagoill Lady (5/1), Anytrixwilldo (8/1), Get Cracking (8/1), Mackie Dee (14/1), Elpologreg (25/1), Esperti (25/1)

Venetia Williams' CAMULUS shaped well on his reappearance when third at Lingfield and with that run under his belt he can now capitalise on a reduced mark. Mister Barclay has an absence to overcome but could still emerge as the main danger on the back of his promising chasing debut second at Uttoxeter. In-form duo Get Cracking and Inchagoill Lady enter calculations too.
