Winless for Dan Skelton last season and signed off wiin modest ninth in handicap at Kempton (21f) 9 months ago. Tongue strap on now and well weighted if bouncing back for new yard.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: K Brogan⁽⁷⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 118

9/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 3/1, good second of 12 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy). Off 8 months but back up in trip so respected on handicap debut.

17/2

Unreliable type who posted creditable third of 7 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, good to firm) 42 days ago. Cheekpieces on now but others appeal more.

Form:

Stoneford^t³³⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Sam Coltherd| T: Sara Ender| OR: 115

200/1

25/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Sedgefield (26.3f) on final run for Tony Coyle 11 months. Switches to hurdles now and lot to prove for new yard.

Form:

Trapper Peak²¹⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-9| J: Billy Garritty| T: Justin Landy| OR: 115| D

20/1

Dual hurdle winner last October and ended term with good second of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (19.4f, good to soft). In mix if back after 7 months off fully tuned up.

Form:

He's A Goer⁴⁰⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Lewis Stones⁽³⁾| T: B Leavy| OR: 114

200/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good, 40/1). Off 13 months and hard to fancy.

Form:

Iolani^p,t¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Thomas Willmott| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 112| CD

12/1

C&D winner who recorded good second of 8 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Kelso (16.2f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Back up in trip with tongue strap on so another bold showing is on the cards.

Form:

Tango Echo Charlie^h1⁵⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Charlie Hammond⁽³⁾| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 112

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 5/2, creditable third of 9 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good) 59 days ago. Hood on now for handicap bow and considered.

Form:

Amberose²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Danny McMenamin⁽³⁾| T: N G Richards| OR: 110| C

4/1

Course winner. 14/1, creditable third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Not ruled out off unchanged mark.

Form:

All Hail Caesar²³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: William Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 110

11/1

Signed off for season with win in 11-runner bumper at Newcastle (16.2f, slow) 7 months ago. Back over hurdles and up in trip now so well worth considering for in-form yard.

Form:

Outcrop^p³⁰⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Lorcan Murtagh| T: J Candlish| OR: 106

40/1

Scored over hurdles at Bangor last August 2019 and respectable third of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (16.6f) 10 months ago. Back up in trip with cheekpieces on so merits consideration.

Form:

Mance Rayder^p⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Blair Campbell| T: H Hogarth| OR: 106| C

40/1

Course winner but only eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, good to firm, 14/1) 42 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form:

Ulterior Motives¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Bruce Lynn⁽³⁾| T: M Todhunter| OR: 102

40/1

21f handicap winner at Sedgefield in January but has offered little in two runs this term, eleventh of 16 in handicap at Hexham (20.1f, good to soft, 40/1) 13 days ago. Others appeal more.

Form:

Onlyfoolsownhorses^p,t²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: Aidan Macdonald⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 102| C| D

50/1

Course winner but showed little after 13 months off when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Perth (23.9f, soft) 21 days ago. Hard to enthuse over.

Form:

Ballycrystal Court^b,t¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Tom Midgley⁽¹⁰⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 100

18/1

Unreliable type but ran one of his better races in blinkers when fifth of 10 in handicap chase (22/1) at Market Rasen (23.9f, good) 19 days ago. Back over hurdles now but others more persuasive.

Form:

Wbee⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Liam Harrison⁽⁵⁾| T: G Hanmer| OR: 100

33/1

Fair bumper winner but she arrives on back of modest fourth of 6 in novice hurdle (7/1) at Cartmel (17.2f, soft) 53 days ago. Into handicaps now with plenty to find.

Form:

Leostar³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Grant Cockburn| T: A C Whillans| OR: 100

11/1

28/1, off 22 months but running well (disputing third) when slipping up after last flight in handicap hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Shortlisted.

Forecasts

Gortroe Joe (10/3), Amberose (4/1), Tango Echo Charlie (11/2), Bannixtown Glory (17/2), Clondaw Promise (9/1), Leostar (11/1), All Hail Caesar (11/1), Iolani (12/1), Ballycrystal Court (18/1), Trapper Peak (20/1), Wbee (33/1), Outcrop (40/1), Mance Rayder (40/1), Ulterior Motives (40/1), Onlyfoolsownhorses (50/1), He's A Goer (200/1), Stoneford (200/1)

Lots with chances but Dianne Sayer has her string in fine form so C&D winner IOLANI is taken to build on his recent second and go in here. Gortroe Joe has slipped to a good mark so has the potential to have a big say if rejuvenated by the switch to Fergal O'Brien's yard, while Newcastle bumper winner All Hail Caesar is another well worth considering on his return.
