Llancillo Lord^h,t¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 12-2| J: Mr Tommie M O'Brien| T: R Potter| OR: 114

13/8

Followed up his Maisemore Park (3m) PTP win in an eventful three-runner rules affair at Fakenham (2m5f, good to firm); today's sharp, flat track should suit; ideally wants the rain to stay away; respected.

Form: 3P/7811-

Archies Bet^t³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Connor Wood⁽⁷⁾| T: Alistair M Brown

33/1

0-3 in bumpers for Katie Scott in the summer of 2017; pulled up in both starts in PTP's (Friars Haugh and Tranwell); readily opposed.

Form: 7U7/PP-

Bedford Forrest²⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Miss E Todd| T: Andrew Nicholls| OR: 100

28/1

Placed under rules for Mike Sowersby at Cartmel (2m5f) in June 2017; working his way back to form for previous trainer Andrew Nicholls (20L third to Meldrum Lad at Hornby Castle (2m6f) latest - runner up was beaten at Hexham on Saturday).

Form: 26/PP53-

Greensalt^t³⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr William Easterby| T: W Easterby| OR: 115

1/1

14-race rules maiden (50% strike-rate in PTP's; 5-10); in contention when unseating his rider at the second last in the 2018 Heart Of All England (Hexham); finished seventh of 27 in the Aintree Foxhunters' last month.

Form: 133/B27-

Hardrock Davis^h³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr John Dawson| T: Mrs K Lynn| OR: 95

6/1

Progressive in PTP's since joining Karen Lynn (2,1,2,1); wouldn't be at all troubled by further rain (forecast) and was possibly an unlucky loser in the most dramatic of Buccleuch Cup's over 3m2f here recently (brought down three out).

Forecasts

Greensalt (1/1), Llancillo Lord (13/8), Hardrock Davis (6/1), Bedford Forrest (28/1), Archies Bet (33/1)

Greensalt is yet to break his duck under rules (5-10 in PTP's), but has completed the course in the Aintree Foxhunters' in each of the past two years (finished third at odds of 66/1 on 2018) and comes out top on official figures. The respected top-weight Llancillo Lord seeks the hat-trick following wins at Maisemore Park (PTP) and Fakenham, but with rain in the forecast it's worth chancing the more versatile rules maiden HARDROCK DAVIS who was possibly an unlucky loser (brought down) in last month's prestigious Buccleuch Cup.
