Calagogo^p,t¹⁹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: James Turner⁽⁵⁾| T: Stephen Allen| OR: 100| D

50/1

Fairly useful winning hurdler at best, leaving Gordon Elliott/off 23 months prior to 2024/25. Made the frame at this C&D on third start for current yard in July, but has run poorly last 2 outings and others preferred after 6 months off.

Form: 0/P04P9

Kaproyale^t⁹³

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Liam Harrison| T: M Comley| OR: 100| C

14/1

Gained a third hunter chase success when scoring at this course (17f) last May and, after 7 months off, shaped better than result on stable debut when sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (19.3f) on Boxing Day, stumbling 3 out. Has 12 lb lower mark back hurdling.

Form: 1215-16

Maggies Boy^p1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 98

9/2

Back up in trip for handicap debut, left previous efforts behind when second of 5 at Sedgefield (19.8f, good to soft) 18 days ago, rallying after the last. Cheekpieces applied and he could be ready to get off the mark over this longer distance.

Form: 4-8552

Boskill Borden³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Shane Fenelon⁽⁵⁾| T: D A Rees| OR: 97

25/1

Just the one win from 11 starts over hurdles in Ireland and below form on his final 2 starts there. After 6 months off, fared no better in first-time cheekpieces when down the field at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) on stable debut and others more persuasive at present.

Form: 543608

Tropical Speed³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 92

7/2

Made the frame on final 3 outings for Eoin Doyle last summer, but hasn't offered much in 2 starts on soft ground for current trainer this year. However, he could yet do better for his new yard faced with less testing conditions.

Form: 04436P

Dublin To Milan⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Ned Fox⁽³⁾| T: C Boultbee-Brooks| OR: 91

9/2

Fourth on all 3 starts in points but little impact in novice hurdles and failed to improve sent handicapping when eleventh of 16 at Wetherby (19.7f, heavy) 65 days ago. Has work to do upped further in trip.

Form: 4-U7700

My Louise⁹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: M Goldstein| T: Mrs L Richards| OR: 91

13/2

Successful on the first 2 of 3 starts in bumpers but below that level over hurdles so far, seventh of 11 in maiden at Ascot (21.6f, good to soft) on latest outing in December. Handicaps could see her in a better light, though, given her bumper form.

Form: 118-547

Tip Top Tonto^v¹⁵⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: Ellis Collier⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs A M Thorpe| OR: 80

40/1

Sole success came in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (20f) in April last year. However, his form has gone the wrong way for new yards this season, well held both starts for his current trainer. Looks to be up against it.

Form: 1-4P088

Ray's The One^b¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Bradley Harris⁽³⁾| T: M Pattinson| OR: 78

18/1

On a long losing run but returned to form back off his proper mark when third at Huntingdon (19.6f, good to soft) last month. Failed to repeat that effort at the same C&D 10 days ago, but he lurks on a dangerous mark if he's on a going day.

Form: 654P34

Nowyouvebinandunit^p¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: C O'Farrell| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 77

7/2

Placed twice in handicaps for Simon Earle in summer 2023. Brought down early making stable debut last month, but produced her best effort yet when runner-up in 13-runner handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 19 days ago. Respected.

Form: 324-5B2

Caballo Diablo⁶³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Alice Stevens⁽³⁾| T: J R Barlow| OR: 70

12/1

Winning pointer but down the field in both hunter chases and he hasn't shown any more switched to hurdling last 2 starts, seventh of 11 in handicap at Uttoxeter (19.9f, soft) 63 days ago. Best watched from out of the handicap.

Form: 2-1P707

Top Drawer⁶¹⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-2| J: Tom Buckley⁽³⁾| T: Tracey Leeson| OR: 66

80/1

Remains a maiden after 19 NH runs, finishing well held when ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft, 11/1) when last seen in July 2023. Is 8 lb wrong at the weights as he returns from 20 months off.

Forecasts

Tropical Speed (7/2), Nowyouvebinandunit (7/2), Dublin To Milan (9/2), Maggies Boy (9/2), Arctic Saint (6/1), My Louise (13/2), Caballo Diablo (12/1), Kaproyale (14/1), Ted's Friend (14/1), Ray's The One (18/1), Boskill Borden (25/1), Tip Top Tonto (40/1), Calagogo (50/1), Top Drawer (80/1)

MAGGIES BOY has been going the right way over hurdles, showing much improved form when second on handicap debut at Sedgefield last time, and with this longer trip promising to suit he is taken to go one better with cheekpieces added. Nowyouvebinandunit took a step forward when runner-up here 19 days ago and is feared most, ahead of Arctic Saint.
