2/1

Doncaster juvenile winner in March. Has also won on the Flat this summer and has Brian Hughes up now handicapping for the first time over hurdles. Interesting contender.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs V Makin| OR: 112

11/1

Landed a gamble at Southwell (heavy) for Justin Landy last December. Not disgraced when fourth at Doncaster in March (only run for Adrian Keatley) and changed trainer again ahead of reappearance.

Maid O'Malley¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Sam Coltherd⁽³⁾| T: W Coltherd| OR: 107

13/2

Winning pointer. Fair form under Rules, finishing third in 2m Hexham handicap chase on her reappearance15 days ago. Quickly back hurdling.

Form: 1/283-3

Island Mahee¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: C O'Farrell| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 99

6/1

Modest form but she did run well when close second in Thurles handicap (2m, good to soft) 18 days ago. Ought to be competitive again.

Form: 58477-2

Winfola^p1¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Thomas Dowson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 99

25/1

Fairly useful on Flat. Every chance when falling last on hurdle debut but has struggled in 3 runs in this sphere since. Latest Flat run decent but something to prove over hurdles. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: F5-760

Burrows Diamond²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Ryan Mania| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 96

7/2

Better than the bare result when midfield in a couple of novice hurdles this autumn and appeals as a likely improver now handicapping.

Form: 9/75

Forecasts

Champagne Terri (2/1), Burrows Diamond (7/2), Methodtothemadness (5/1), Island Mahee (6/1), Maid O'Malley (13/2), Schiaparannie (11/1), Winfola (25/1)

BURROWS DIAMOND has shown a bit of promise on both starts since joining this yard and might be worth chancing now handicapping. Champagne Terri has done fairly well on the Flat this summer and should have some mileage in this opening hurdle mark. Schiaparannie is also capbale of playing a prominent role if primed on her first run for another new trainer.
