Selected odds by:
Fair 1m4f maiden on the Flat. Only three runs over hurdles in Ireland and turned in poor effort in Tipperary novice 7 months ago. Has plenty to prove on return for his new yard.
|
Showed ability when fourth in novice hurdles on his first two runs but well held when falling heavily 2 out in Doncaster handicap last month. Hood/tongue strap on now with bit to prove.
|
Yet to open his account but has shaped encouragingly of late, strong-travelling second of 16 in 2m3f handicap at Catterick 57 days ago. Expected to be bang there despite 4 lb rise.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1, best effort when fourth of 11 in 2m novice hurdle at Hexham 16 days ago. Goes into handicaps now but others are better treated.
|
Winless since 2019 but he arrives in decent form from the Flat. Not discounted off reduced mark back in this sphere.
|
Fair maiden hurdler who recorded good second in Newcastle jumpers bumper in February on final run for Keith Dalgleish. Respected for his new yard.
|
It's now thirteen runs since his last win in 2018, and he raced too freely when fifth of 9 to Old Jewry over C&D (8/1) 13 days ago. Needs to settle better.
|
Gained second win at Taunton in January and run best ignored (raced on unfavoured inside) there 19 days ago. Worth considering in refitted cheekpieces.
|
Low-mileage hurdler who recorded good third of 12 in handicap at Warwick (16f) 20 days ago. Can make his presence felt again nudged up just 1 lb.
|
Not the easiest to catch right, but he got back on track when scoring over C&D (12/1) 13 days ago. Up 3 lb and needs to show he can follow it up now.
|
Course winner but he's proving a bit and miss this season, pulled up in Ayr handicap 33 days ago. Others are more persuasive.
|
Modest 2m hurdle winner last term but he's been off since pulled up in Southwell handicap 8 months ago. Has plenty to prove on his return.
|
Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. 20/1, fair ninth of 16 on handicap bow at Newcastle (2m4f) 25 days ago. Faces uphill task at these weights.

Forecasts
Donladd (4/1), Ace Ventura (4/1), Shaws Bridge (5/1), Old Jewry (6/1), Russian Service (11/1), Get With It (12/1), Brickadank (14/1), Fort De L'Ocean (14/1), Coup De Gold (16/1), Bingo D'Olivate (16/1), Echo Express (18/1), Your Place (50/1), Scottsdale (66/1), Glory (125/1)
Lots of these have question marks against them but DONLADD has been knocking on the door and is taken to gain a deserved first win having found only one too good in big-field handicaps on his last two starts. Ace Ventura rates a major threat on the back of his recent Warwick third, with Fort de L'Ocean expected to build on his Stratford sixth and worth considering too.
- DONLADD (IRE)
- ACE VENTURA
- FORT DE L'OCEAN (FR)
