Selected odds by:

Star Of Guiting²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Jamie Brace⁽⁵⁾| T: N A Twiston-Davies

7/1

11/2, made a winning hurdling debut in 5-runner juvenile at Exeter (16.7f, soft) 27 days ago. Likely to improve but he needs to under his penalty.

Form: 041

Vorderman^h1³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Ben Ffrench-Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal

22/1

Limited impact in a brace of bumpers but caused an upset upped to 17.7f switched to hurdling at Fontwell last month. Not an obvious follow-up contender under a penalty.

Form: 871

Blue Moon Lady²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Charlie Price⁽³⁾| T: R L Llewellyn| D

11/2

Pether's Moon filly. Sister to fairly useful French 2¼m hurdle winner Moon Dawn. Made perfect start to her career in 6-runner contest at Ludlow four weeks ago. Penalty to carry but a likely player with improvement forthcoming.

Form: 1

Laughing John

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

6/5

Postponed gelding. Closely related to fair 1¼m-1½m winner Bletchley Storm. One to take seriously on his debut for leading yard.

Lenjoleur De Palma⁵⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Jack Andrews⁽³⁾| T: T Ellis| OR: 100

14/1

Twice-raced maiden and fair form shown, fourth of 7 in juvenile hurdle at Warwick (16f, soft) 55 days ago. Not discounted.

Form: 34

Sherminator³³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: H Cobden| T: Miss E C Lavelle

10/3

Fairly useful form when second of 6 in bumper at Bangor (16.7f, heavy, 11/4) 33 days ago, staying on well. Much respected now he makes his hurdles debut.

Form: 42

Highbury Hill²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Lorcan Murtagh| T: N J Hawke

14/1

Held back by inexperience when eighth in bumper at Stratford but knew more sent hurdling when 8 lengths third to Blue Moon Lady on hurdles debut over C&D 4 weeks ago. May do better still. Considered.

Form: 83

Tabasco Time⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: M J M O'Sullivan| T: H Morrison

12/1

Showing ability when fell last in juvenile hurdle at Cagnes-Sur-Mer (16.9f, soft) 40 days ago. Should progress now going hurdling for her new yard.

Form: F

Forecasts

Laughing John (7/4), Sherminator (4/1), Star Of Guiting (9/2), Blue Moon Lady (7/1), Tabasco Time (10/1), Vorderman (12/1), Lenjoleur De Palma (14/1), Highbury Hill (16/1)

Nicky Henderson has his string in excellent nick so his Postponed gelding LAUGHING JOHN is fancied to make a winning start in this sphere at the chief expense of Ludlow debut scorer Blue Moon Lady. Highbury Hill also has the form to play a part and appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
