Yet to hit top form for new yard this term, only sixth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (25.8f, heavy, 9/2) 22 days ago. Back down in trip with serious questions to answer.

Lightly-raced maiden who showed much improved form affter 9 months off when clear second of 12 in handicap over C&D (good to soft) 40 days ago. Tongue strap on now and well worth considering.

11/1
Dual 20f winner at Sedgefield last winter who returned after 7 months off with respectable sixth of 13 in handicap there (19.8f, good) 26 days ago. Should build on that now so one for the shortlist.

Much improved in cheekpieces since return and followed up Fontwell win with stylish success at Kelso (18.1f) 39 days ago. Up another 8 lb but has more to offer so another bold showing is on the cards.

Poor maiden hurdler, and remote fourth of 5 in novice (125/1) at Kelso (22.7f, heavy) when last seen out 9 months ago. Makes handicap debut now with lots to find.

Modest 10f winner on Flat but only poor thus far over hurdles, below-form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle (50/1) at Perth (20.2f, good to soft) 56 days ago. More needed.

C&D winner who wasn't disgraced when second in handicap chase at Sedgefield (19.3f, soft) final start. Can make his presence felt back over hurdles on his return.

On a long losing run stretching back to 2017 but he wasn't discredited when second of 10 in handicap hurdle here (23.3f, good to soft) 23 days ago. In the mix.

Lightly-raced maiden. 100/1, twelfth of 14 in novice hurdle at Catterick (19.3f, good to soft). May do better now handicapping on his comeback.

Yet to make the frame in seven starts, but not disgraced when fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good to soft, 20/1) 32 days ago. Needs more if he's to open his account though.

Veteran is without a win since 2016, and only ninth of 13 in handicap (28/1) at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) when last seen out 9 months ago. Back up in trip but others more persuasive.

Remains a maiden after 19 outing but he posted creditable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, good to firm) 87 days ago. 4 lb out of the handicap here though so others appeal more.

Forecasts

Dubai Outlaw (3/1), Cilluirid (3/1), Grand Enterprise (9/2), Ulterior Motives (13/2), Bertie Blake (11/1), Artic Quest (12/1), Golden Chancer (20/1), Towerburn (25/1), Eden Collonges (28/1), More Music (28/1), Misscarlett (40/1), Cully Mac (40/1), Kilcaragh Boy (66/1), Lissen To The Lady (66/1)

12:55 Hexham - 25 October 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Tim Easterby's CILLUIRID returned with a fine second over C&D last month and this unexposed sort is taken to go one better here under similar conditions. Hat-trick seeking Dubai Outlaw is sure to go well and rates the obvious threat, but he has another 8 lb rise to overcome. In-form Artic Quest appeals as a solid place contender now he reverts to a shorter trip.

  1. CILLUIRID (IRE)
  2. DUBAI OUTLAW (IRE)
  3. ARTIC QUEST (IRE)
