1/6

Fairly useful on the Flat for Jamie Osborne and going the right way over hurdles, opening account at Catterick in February. Matched that form from the front on handicap bow at Ascot. One to beat.

The Wrekin³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: T J O'Brien| T: H D Daly

16/1

Won sole start in points but beaten a long way in bumpers this year. Ought to be seen in a better light now tackling obstacles.

Form: 150

Willy Nilly^t⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: D McCain Jnr

50/1

Fair on Flat form Clive Cox and half-brother to Italian jumps winner Napoli Molticolori. Low-key start to hurdles career and could be one for handicaps.

Form: P0

33/1

Bred more for the Flat but achieved just poor form in 4 Irish bumpers for Peter Fahey.

Forecasts

Tinnahalla (1/6), Songo (5/1), The Wrekin (16/1), Kalinda (33/1), Cesar Du Gouet (33/1), Willy Nilly (50/1), Maghfoor (50/1), Malvolio (50/1)

TINNAHALLA gave a good account of himself from the front in a handicap at Ascot 3 weeks ago and has been found a pretty soft opening back in novice company. It hasn't yet clicked for Songo over hurdles but there's time for that to change and he is clear-second choice.
