Red Reminder²¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Callum Bewley| T: C Grant| OR: 114| CD

16/1

Didn't show a lot in bumpers but much more like it over hurdles, recording win number 2 in novice company over this C&D in March. Off since and opening mark does ask for more.

Form: 4/P3141-

Coup De Gold²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-12| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 114

33/1

Fair maiden on the Flat who was all out to make a winning hurdling debut at Catterick in December. Found out under a penalty soon after and recent efforts on the level not particularly encouraging.

Form: 14-

Legalized¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: C O'Farrell| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 110| CD

7/2

Gambled on but didn't get home upped to 25f at Cartmel on return in August. More like it when fifth at Perth a fortnight ago and she ought to be a factor from this sort of mark.

Form: 3464-65

Tayzar¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Theo Gillard⁽⁷⁾| T: Ruth Jefferson| OR: 109

9/2

First run following a breathing operation and well prepared to cash in on a reduced mark on reappearance at Warwick 16 days ago (2m). 4 lb rise perfectly fair and lot depends on whether stamina holds.

Form: 23/P66-1

Paris Protocol⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Henry Brooke| T: M Walford| OR: 108

15/2

Perked up by a first-time visor when off mark in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen a year ago. Little impact in 3 starts on the Flat this summer but much more like it when third in a 2m handicap latest.

Form: 485/17-3

Eau Top²²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: B Pauling| OR: 107

7/1

Matched qualifying form when sixth on handicap debut at Newbury in February. That race worked out quite well and he ought to have more to offer this term.

Form: 56/446-

Welland³⁰⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Kielan Woods| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 107

14/1

Fair in bumpers and upped her game after a short break when scoring for the first time over hurdles at Fakenham in October 2019. Soft ground looked against him at Sandown in December and off since.

Form: 953/715-

Mistermoonboy¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: D R Fox| T: L Kerr| OR: 106

100/1

Placed first 2 starts over hurdles in maiden company at up to this trip at Ayr in 2018/19. Subsequent efforts 20 months apart suggest he's had a problem or 2.

Form: 38236/P

Blaster Yeats³¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Danny Cook| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 104

7/2

Point bumper winner who displayed progressive form during the latter part of 2019, keeping on for second on handicap debut in November. Off since. but he retains potential and his mark is very fair.

Form: 441/432-

Coeur Aimant³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: B Butterworth| OR: 104

28/1

Fairly treated on level achieved when fourth on hurdles bow at Sligo in August, but not in same form twice since and has left Gordon Elliott for £5,000.

Form: 4475

Oksana^t¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 101

8/1

Best effort for some time when cashing in on a falling mark in a Market Rasen handicap over 18.6f 11 days ago. Up 7 lb but no reason why she won't give it another good shot.

Form: 87-F671

Mcgarry¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-6| J: Thomas Dowson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 94

50/1

Irish point winner who has failed to make an impact under Rules so far.

Form: 5048-9P

Forecasts

Legalized (7/2), Blaster Yeats (7/2), Tayzar (9/2), Eau Top (7/1), Paris Protocol (15/2), Oksana (8/1), Welland (14/1), Red Reminder (16/1), Coeur Aimant (28/1), Coup De Gold (33/1), Mcgarry (50/1), Mistermoonboy (100/1)

EAU TOP offered plenty to work on last winter during a time in which his yard was quiet and he's expected to be very competitive on reappearance from his current mark. Blaster Yeats also has his best days ahead of him and is feared most, with last-time-out winners Oksana and Tayzar worthy of respect.
