1/1
Was a 12-race maiden joining this trainer but, having finished second at Fontwell in January on first start, opened account at Huntingdon (2m4½f, heavy; 7-2f) last month; third has won since and 5lb rise looks fair enough here.

17/2
Lightly-raced sort has improved in increments on all three starts in novice hurdles so far and shouldn't be taken lightly now making the switch to handicaps; market check needed.

7/2
Just 1-17 over hurdles, when landing a gamble at Newcastle 11 months ago. Best run since when runner-up at Wetherby (2m3½f, soft; 4-1) in January but jumped badly left and tailed off since at Sedgefield and not the most reliable of conveyances.

Horse silk
Innis Shannon28
Age: 10|  Weight: 10-8| J: Jonathon Bewley(3)| T: G Bewley| OR:  82
9/1
Her sole victory so far came at Hexham (2m4f) in November 2015. Signs of a revival recently including when second at Ayr (2m5½f, heavy; 5-1) in January. Ran poorly since over 3m+ at Carlisle but best form over this sort of trip.

Horse silk
Golan Cloudp81
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR:  79
11/2
A 10-race maiden over hurdles and hasn't really looked like getting on the board at any stage; needs to jump better to get competitive.
6
Horse silk
Knockreat28
Age: 13|  Weight: 10-1| J: Lorcan Murtagh(3)| T: J Ewart| OR:  75
25/1
Teenager now and no success since Clonmel maiden hurdle back in 2015; well beaten in two starts for this yard having returned from more than two years off. Hard to put faith in.

Forecasts

Project Mars (1/1), Ex S'elance (7/2), Golan Cloud (11/2), Artic Mann (17/2), Innis Shannon (9/1), Knockrea (25/1)

16:40 Kelso - 16 March 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A 5lb rise for the win at Huntingdon might not be enough to stop PROJECT MARS following up, with handicap debutant Artic Mann the chief danger ahead of Innis Shannon in a weak finale.
