Right Hand Of God²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 105

13/2

Well beaten in pair of bumpers and, while he has shown a fair level of form over hurdles, he was rather disappointing at this course last time. Market could prove significant ahead of chasing debut.

Form: 0730-55

Early Days^t⁴⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: H Cobden| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 100

9/1

Lightly-raced hurdler who has shown just modest form. Probably needed her reappearance and has a background in points, so should benefit from switch to chasing.

Form: 2/7545-0

Kap Auteuil²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Tom Cannon| T: T Lawes| OR: 100

3/1

Limited sort who has made no impact since switched to chasing. Looks up against it once again.

Form: 65-974P

Clondaw Robin^p⁵⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: James Best| T: A Irvine| OR: 79

9/2

Modest chaser who ran well at Lingfield 55 days ago and warrants respect in a race like this.

Form: 34PP-32

En Coeur^t¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Sean Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 79

11/4

Modest hurdler/chaser who put up one of his better efforts when second over C&D last time and should be thereabouts in a weak race if he's in the same form.

Form: 4-56462

Gaia Vallis¹¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Mitchell Bastyan⁽³⁾| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 79WS

9/2

French-bred mare who hasn't achieved much over hurdles, so will need to improve markedly for the switch to chasing if he's to make any impact even from a basement mark.

Form: 032-6

Silvretta Schwarz^h⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Danny Burton⁽⁵⁾| T: M Young| OR: 70

200/1

Fairly useful maiden at best on the Flat, but no form over hurdles thus far. Makes no appeal from out of the weights on chasing debut.

Form: 000P-P9

Non-Runners

Monkey Harris⁴⁷²

Weight: 11-4| Age: 9

Forecasts

En Coeur (11/4), Kap Auteuil (3/1), Clondaw Robin (9/2), Gaia Vallis (9/2), Right Hand Of God (13/2), Early Days (9/1), Monkey Harris (20/1), Silvretta Schwarz (200/1)

Ex-pointer EARLY DAYS showed ability over hurdles last season and is entitled to strip fitter for her reappearance, so she makes plenty of appeal with improvement on the cards now switched to chasing against some moderate opposition. Clondaw Robin and En Coeur are definite players given they arrive in form, but both have their limitations.
