Kendelu¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: David Noonan| T: N J Hawke| OR: 88

11/4

11/1, very good 2 lengths second of 10 to Dubai Outlaw in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (19.2f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Solid claims of opening his account.

Form: 479-482

Knight Commander²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Ben Jones⁽³⁾| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 86| C

11/2

Seventeen runs since last win in 2017 but creditable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Course winner so not ruled out.

Quinto^b,t¹¹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-9| J: Bryony Frost| T: J D Frost| OR: 83| C

40/1

Unreliable type. Pulled up in handicap chase here (21f, good to soft) 11 days ago, tailing off before halfway. Switches to hurdles with blinkers back on but easily opposed.

Form: 14545-P

The Last Melon¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: J McGrath| T: J Bennett| OR: 82

40/1

150/1, seventh of 8 in novice hurdle over C&D 11 days ago. Lightly-raced nowadays and hard to warm to.

Form: 7757/57

D'waterside^t³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Mrs K Stephens| OR: 82

33/1

Poor maiden. 50/1 and tongue strap on, below-form sixth of 9 in handicap hurdle here (16.8f, good) 39 days ago. Up in trip but others appeal more.

Form: 367/09-6

Forecasts

Dubai Outlaw (9/4), Kendelu (11/4), Arty Campbell (4/1), Freddy Fanatapan (4/1), Dora's Field (5/1), Knight Commander (11/2), Black Prince (12/1), Fool To Cry (16/1), Sandford Castle (22/1), Dan Gun (28/1), D'waterside (33/1), Kiera Royale (33/1), Quinto (40/1), The Last Melon (40/1)

DUBAI OUTLAW landed a gambe with something to spare at Fontwell so is fancied to defy a 6 lb rise and follow up from his basement mark. Kendelu chased home the selection that day and is sure to make his presence felt again on these 3 lb better terms, while Freddy Fanatapan is also worth considering now he reverts in trip.
