Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 120

3/1

Off 11 months/had a wind op before an encouraging third of 6 in handicap chase at Newbury (23.4f, good to soft, 13/2) on his debut over fences 29 days ago. This fairly useful hurdles winner is open to improvement.

Form: 3/2251-3

First Lord De Cuet^t,v²¹

Age: 11| Weight: 11-11| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR: 118| C

18/1

Hasn't won since 2021 and has failed to beat a rival on both outings this season, back over hurdles at Wincanton last time. Visor is back on but there's a bit to prove.

Form: 4433-48

Ideal Des Bordes²⁵⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 118

9/4

Made a successful return from wind surgery in 21f Kempton maiden hurdle in May. Unexposed sort from a leading yard and this winning pointer rates an interesting prospect.

Form: 1/332P-1

Tommys Charm⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Kerry Lee| OR: 117

11/2

Fair 2m4f hurdles winner who went with some promise when fifth of 7 in handicap chase (18/1) at Exeter (19.2f, heavy) on his debut over fences 41 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Should improve.

Form: 212-5

Muskoka²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Rex Dingle| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 115| D

7/2

Easily got off the mark in 7-runner handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, soft, 5/2) 26 days ago. Not taken lightly despite a 7 lb hike.

Form: 323-331

Lagonda²⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: Shane Quinlan⁽³⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 109

7/2

Point/hurdles winner who has posted solid efforts when placed in handicap chases around 3m at Ludlow and Hereford this winter. In the mix once more.

Form: 234P-32

Forecasts

Ideal Des Bordes (15/8), Muskoka (3/1), Wrappedupinmay (4/1), Lagonda (9/2), Tommys Charm (10/1), First Lord De Cuet (16/1)

Nicky Henderson's lightly-raced point scorer IDEAL DES BORDES catches the eye now he goes chasing so is taken to make a winning start at the chief expense of Hereford scorer Muskoka. Both Wrappedupinmay and Lagonda can also have a say in this intriguing handicap.
