Selected odds by:

Billy's Angel^b,t⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Eddie Edge⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Miss A Murphy| D

20/1

Fair hurdler/chaser who recorded first win for this yard in 15-runner jumpers bumper (33/1) at Kempton (18f, slow) 6 days ago, showing best turn of foot in a slowly-run race.

Form: F82651

Good Bye^v¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| CD

14/1

Modest hurdler who won 12-runner jumpers bumper over this C&D (standard) 14 days ago, kept up to work. This will be harder under a penalty, but he's clearly taken well to these events.

Form: 663021

King D'Argent⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Bridget Andrews| T: D Skelton| D

11/4

Fairly useful winner over hurdles/fences who has been in fine form this term and made the most of a good opportunity when scoring on bumper debut at Newcastle last week. Should go well again.

Form: 5-231F1

Bailarico^p⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: G Sheehan| T: W Greatrex| D

13/2

Bounced back to form when landing handicap hurdle at Catterick in December and has remained in decent form since, including when fourth of 13 in a jumpers bumper at Kempton 4 days ago.

Form: 061554

Darkest Day²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

22/1

Fair maiden hurdler who confirmed his return to form when third in 9-runner handicap at Plumpton (15.9f) 3 weeks ago. Placed only previous bumper start.

Form: 3-6P523

Dash Of Blue^t¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Bryan Carver⁽³⁾| T: B I Case

40/1

Unplaced in bumpers but has returned an improved model over hurdles this season, opening account in 20f Southwell handicap in November. Well held at Doncaster latest but conditions probably to blame.

Form: 63-3149

Don't Shout⁶⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

8/1

Fair novice hurdle winner. Made an inauspicious start over fences in a hood when pulled up at Warwick in December, but was placed in a bumper early in his career, so worth a look back in this sphere.

Form: 3105-3P

Eau Top⁵¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: D A Jacob| T: B Pauling

20/1

All the better for return when good second on chase bow at Bangor. Caught out by inexperience at Southwell but disappointed in first-time cheekpieces at Wetherby last time.

Form: 46-524P

Frame Rate^p¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: M G Nolan| T: C J Gray

150/1

Poor hurdler who posted a good second in 12f Flat handicap at Southwell on final run for Iain Jardine and not disgraced at Wolverhampton last time, needing stronger gallop.

Form: U959-20

Nebuchadnezzar¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| D

5/1

Fairly useful hurdler who has run respectably all 3 starts back on the Flat this winter, making the frame on each occasion. Not ruled out on bumper debut.

Form: 771-937

Now Children¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Cillin Leonard⁽⁷⁾| T: Alexandra Dunn

33/1

Regressive hurdler who was runner-up on the first of 2 starts in jumpers bumpers here in January. However, didn’t shape with much promise back on the Flat at Southwell 13 days ago.

Form: 37P726

Yaazaain⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Thomas Garner| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

80/1

Fair maiden on the Flat in France in 2019, but hasn't shown much over hurdles for this yard and ran as if needing the run back on the level at Southwell last week.

Form: P-606

Zafar¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Jones⁽³⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White

3/1

Fairly useful Flat maiden who returned to something like his best when second in 9-runner handicap hurdle at Wincanton (19.8f) 11 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Respected on bumper debut.

Form: 239/042

Princess Midnight^t³³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: T Scudamore| T: C L Tizzard| D

80/1

Gained breakthrough win in 2m Hereford chase in November, but not in anything like the same form both runs since.

Form: 5/43185

Forecasts

King D'Argent (11/4), Zafar (3/1), Nebuchadnezzar (5/1), Bailarico (13/2), Don't Shout (8/1), Good Bye (14/1), Billy's Angel (20/1), Eau Top (20/1), Darkest Day (22/1), Now Children (33/1), Dash Of Blue (40/1), Princess Midnight (80/1), Yaazaain (80/1), Frame Rate (150/1)

A chance is taken on ZAFAR, who has been shaping up well over hurdles recently and looks interesting now returning to 2m for his bumper debut judged on his fairly useful Flat ability. King d'Argent shoulders a penalty for winning one of these at Newcastle last week but should go well again, with Nebuchadnezzar completing the shortlist having run well on each of his Flat starts this winter.
