Final Choice¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr Michael Jeffries⁽⁷⁾| T: A West| OR: 62| D

12/1

Lost his way over hurdles after winning at Uttoxeter in October but capable here as he showed when sluicing up over 2m at Chelmsford in August 2018. Lightly raced on the Flat and one to consider.

Form: 2/67478-

Le Musee^v⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: K E Buckley⁽⁵⁾| T: N J Hawke| OR: 62| BF

6/4

Won twice over fences since last seen on the level in May where he was sixth as a well-backed favourite over 1m6f at Lingfield. Had a break coming into this but likely well treated now on NH form.

Form: 6/5862-

(7)

Never A Word^b,t³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss Thomosina Eyston⁽⁷⁾| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 57| C

9/2

Got off the mark at the 34th attempt when winning over 1m6f here two starts ago. Disappointing since at Wolverhampton and gets another very quick turnaround here.

Form: 6554-17

Booborowie³²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: James Robottom⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss M E Rowland| OR: 51

50/1

Won over hurdles at Leicester just over a year ago, but shaped as if badly in need of the run when last of 8 on Flat return at Wolverhampton recently, and is likely to need this, too.

Form: 93346/8-

(3)

Bolt N Brown^v²³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: Miss Serena Brotherton| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 56

5/2

Still a maiden after 16 attempts and limitations are becoming plain to see. Finished a good way behind at Lingfield latest and again others make greater appeal.

Form: 463489-

(2)

Sincerely Resdev^p²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-3| J: Mr Henry Newcombe⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 46

7/1

19-race dual code maiden ran well here a few times in the past although recent efforts seen far more misses than hits. Capable of getting involved if on a going day.

Form: 7032/84-

(4)

Nineteenrbo'malley¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Lewis Dobb⁽⁷⁾| T: R Brisland| OR: 45

66/1

Poor maiden who was again tailed off here latest after three lasts before that; no appeal.

Form: 4560-7

Forecasts

Le Musee (6/4), Bolt N Brown (5/2), Never A Word (9/2), Sincerely Resdev (7/1), Final Choice (12/1), Booborowie (50/1), Nineteenrbo'malley (66/1)

Useful chaser LE MUSEE is lightly raced on the level but given his 145 chase handicap mark surely he ought to be capable on the Flat off 62. Also more known for his exploits over obstacles; Final Choice is a danger with Never A Word also now considered after belatedly getting off the mark on his last visit here 10 days ago.
