Completed a four-timer for this yard when winning over an extended 3m2f at Newton Abbot (good) in July. Placed on all three starts since and another bold show looks likely.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Jack Sherwood⁽³⁾| T: O Sherwood| OR: 114

8/1

Handicap mark is falling following a couple of defeats over hurdles since wind surgery last December. Worth a check in the market on his return from a break.

33/1

Well held third in a handicap hurdle at Cartmel (2m6f, good-to-firm) in early July. Pulled up at the same venue on soft ground last time out and more needed in this contest.

11/4

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Joe Williamson⁽⁷⁾| T: G Boanas| OR: 104

25/1

Eight race maiden has shown signs of ability in handicaps on his two most recent starts. Likely more needed if he's to take this contest however.

Forecasts

Sackett (11/4), Mr Mafia (3/1), Zephyros Bleu (9/2), No Hiding Place (6/1), Frozen Flame (6/1), Querry Horse (8/1), The Drone (8/1), Desert De Bruyere (16/1), Sultans Pride (25/1), Boruma (33/1)

THE DRONE showed up well when second on handicap debut and with further improvement likely he is taken to register his first handicap victory in this competitive hurdle event. Frozen Flame remains open to improvement and was a winner when last in action back in June and he can finish runner-up ahead of Zephyros Bleu who has joined a top stable and can finish third following a lengthy absence.
