2/1

Left with a simple task when opening account over hurdles at Musselburgh (19.8f) in February. Not given a hard time when third under a penalty at Southwell last month and remains with potential.

Marine One⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 120

4/6

Fair ex-Irish hurdler who didn't need to improve to get off the mark in 12-runner novice at Market Rasen (16.6f) 48 days ago, staying on well. Will stay 2½m and well respected under a penalty.

Form: F235-1

5/1

Is a half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Darling Maltaix and displayed ability in a brace of Huntingdon bumpers earlier in the year. Has had wind surgery ahead of this switch to hurdling.

16/1

Modest maiden on the Flat. Showed more than first time up over hurdles when third of 11 in Bangor novice (16.7f) last month, though again did plenty wrong.

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Henry Brooke| T: S Waugh

150/1

Related to winners in this sphere and stuck to her task when third of 9 starting out at Ayr in October. In nothing like the same form at Catterick and Newcastle since, though. Up in trip now hurdling.

Forecasts

Marine One (4/6), Ask Henry (2/1), Fortunate Fred (5/1), Redbridge Gold (6/1), Chinese Alphabet (16/1), Nomountainhienough (80/1), Shantou Street (150/1), Rip Van Go (250/1), Unique Company (250/1)

MARINE ONE was strong at the finish in a well-run race at Market Rasen last month, which points to him staying further, so he's fancied to follow up that win. Fortunate Glory showed clear promise in a brace of Huntingdon bumpers earlier in the year, and has to rate a big threat now going hurdling after a wind operation. Ask Henry is a previous winner who remains with potential, so is also feared.
