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

14/1

Fair maiden hurdler/chaser but he was pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, soft) last month and is opposable on the back of that.

Form: 23-674P

Camulus⁴⁹

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

3/1

Off 9 months before returning with an encouraging third of 8 in handicap chase at Lingfield (23.5f, good to soft) in November, 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

Felton Bellevue^p,t¹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: Freddie Gingell| T: B I Case| OR: 94| D

5/1

Generally reliable and gained a deserved first win for over 2 years at Southwell last March. Hasn't done a great wrong since, again performing with credit when third back at the aforementioned course 15 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once more.

Form: 14-4523

Get Cracking³⁶

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

3/1

Successful in points and left hurdles form behind sent chasing when fifth of 13 in handicap at Hereford (20.9f, good to soft) last month. Moving back up in trip will help and he's a live each-way contender.

Form: 136745

Celtic Fortune^b1,t³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Jack Hogan| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 91

9/2

Fair maiden hurdler who has made an encouraging start over fences, beaten under a length by a progressive type at Wincanton (25f, soft) last time. Remains feasibly treated nudged up 4 lb and may well have a part to play here, too, provided the first-time blinkers have the desired effect.

Form: P4-4342

The Midwife⁴³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Joe Anderson| T: G Harris| OR: 85| BF| D

7/1

Opened hurdles account at Market Rasen last February and back to form the last twice, finishing third in handicap hurdles at Chepstow and Ludlow (both at around 3m). The fact that she was successful on sole start between the flags augurs well ahead of this chase debut. Not discounted.

Form: 8-57533

Martalmix'jac^p,t²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Tabitha Worsley| T: Mrs M Rowley| OR: 85

6/1

Just 1 lb higher than for his clear-cut victory in a 4-runner Leicester handicap in February and left tame reappearance effort behind when a solid second here (2½m, soft) last month. Moving back up in trip will, if anything, be a good thing and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 621P-P2

Lelant^t³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Ellis Collier⁽⁶⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 85

14/1

Fair form without success over hurdles but not so good over fences so far and others make more appeal.

Form: 3668PF

Fashion's Model^b1²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: Osian Radford⁽⁷⁾| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 79| D

66/1

Sent chasing last season, off the mark on final start of the campaign as she landed mares' handicap at Wincanton (20.2f, heavy) in April. No show in a handful of runs so far this term, though, and hopes here pinned on the first-time blinkers sparking a revival.

Form: P1-8P8P

Forecasts

Celtic Fortune (7/2), Camulus (4/1), Felton Bellevue (5/1), Get Cracking (6/1), Martalmix'jac (7/1), Anytrixwilldo (7/1), The Midwife (8/1), Lelant (12/1), Fashion's Model (50/1)

A first success beckons for CAMULUS, who should come on for his reappearance third behind a couple of bang in-form rivals at Lingfield where he was returning from a nine-month absence. Martalmix'jac put in a good shift here last month and is next on the list ahead of Felton Bellevue, while Celtic Fortune and chase debutante The Midwife also merit respect.
