11/4

Sole win from 17 starts came over C&D (soft) in October under this pilot. Well held last time after 7lb rise and in a better race. Drops 2lb and back in grade again today and should be much more competitive.

11/4

Has won five times over hurdles at up to 3m2f with soft conditions the slowest he has been successful on. Does handle heavy, comes here in form after a Kelso success and 4lb rise. Still well treated on last year's form. Interesting.

Green Tikkana²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 0-0| J: Steven Fox⁽³⁾| T: J Ewart| OR: 98

9/1

Has shown occasional glimpses of promise in three hurdles runs, the best being her second at Catterick last month. Initial handicap mark looks stiff enough, though precautionary market check looks prudent.

Form: 646-643

Bertalus⁸⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 0-0| J: Grant Cockburn⁽³⁾| T: N W Alexander| OR: 90| CD

7/1

Scored over C&D (heavy) two years ago when 12lb higher, but has not come close to that level of form in the past two seasons and others are readily preferred at present.

Form: PP6P-9P

Millrose Bell¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 0-0| J: S Mulqueen| T: V Thompson| OR: 86

40/1

Best effort so far was on her hurdling debut at Hexham (2m4f, soft) in November. Beaten 32L on handicap debut when stepped up to 3m at Newcastle last time and a 5lb drop looks insufficient.

12/1

Beaten a long way in all completed starts over hurdles in Ireland and tailed off/pulled up at Clonmel last month. Impossible to make a case for him on the evidence of his CV.

16/1

Hasn't completed in three of her five starts since the autumn and in those that she has, the closest she has got was a 20L defeat last time. Drops 8lb but hard to make a case for her.

7/2

Veteran with few miles on the clock and put up his best effort for seven years when a 6L runner-up at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft) last time. Has stamina to prove now up in trip but could figure closely if he stays.

Forecasts

Letemgo (11/4), Rivabodiva (11/4), Sory (7/2), Bertalus (7/1), Green Tikkana (9/1), The Jam Man (12/1), Olivia Joan (16/1), Millrose Bell (40/1)

A very poor contest where LETEMGO can take advantage of a mark that remains handy based on last year's form and successfully back-up his recent Kelso success from 4lb higher. Rivabodiva should be much more competitive at this level and could go close again, while Sory and Green Tikkana are the more interesting of the remainder.
