Settings
Selected odds by:
Fairly useful bumper winner who left previous hurdles form well behind when justifying support on handicap debut at Warwick a month ago. Up 13 lb for that easy win but remains of interest.
|
Maiden/novice winner in 2020 but ran poorly in Sandown listed handicap when last seen. This is easier and yard going better now.
|
Capable of useful form over fences and went with a lot more zest when runner-up at Chepstow a fortnight ago. Long way clear of the third that day and looks well-in from same mark.
|
Group 1 winner on the Flat (heavy ground) in Germany in 2018. Kept mistakes down when winning weak 5-runner maiden hurdle at Plumpton 24 days ago and mark is high on bare form.
|
Big prices all 3 starts but positives to draw from a brace of in-frame efforts over hurdles at Ffos Las. Potential for better in handicaps but drop back to 2m not sure to suit.
|
Made a few mistakes and headed on the run-in by Khan at Plumpton 24 days ago. Like that rival, his opening mark looks too high.
|
Fairly useful Flat winner. Quiet start over hurdles but is reasonable nick in jumpers bumpers in recent weeks, placed twice.
|
Fair ex-German 10f Flat winner who hinted at ability both starts in Plumpton novice events last year. Creditable third on Flat last time but needs to up his game to win from current mark.
|
Opened hurdles account on last season's belated reappearance (first run following a wind op) at Wincanton. Too free on several starts since and back hurdling following error-strewn chase bow.

Forecasts
Will Sting (9/4), Eamon An Cnoic (10/3), Blueberg (5/1), Let The Heirs Walk (11/2), Song Of The Hunter (13/2), Ballydoyle (10/1), Imphal (12/1), Itsonlyrocknroll (20/1), Khan (22/1), John Betjeman (25/1)
EAMON AN CNOIC was a long way clear of the rest when finding only an unexposed rival too good at Chepstow a fortnight ago and he looks ahead of the game from the same mark. Will Sting routed the opposition at Warwick last month and demands respect, along with Song of The Hunter if he's turned out quickly.
