Selected odds by:

Fixe Le Kap^t²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr George Henderson⁽⁷⁾| T: J H Henderson| OR: 126

14/1

Useful hurdler but seemingly not the force of old for all he made the frame in a point recently. Returns to Rules with a bit to prove.

Form: 355/394-

I'm Wiser Now^t¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Albi Tufnell⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 115

9/4

Tricky customer who arrives on a hat-trick having again overcome mistakes to score at Stratford 12 days ago. One to consider.

Form: F23211-

Knockaderry Flyer^b,t1²⁰

Age: 12| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr James King| T: M Comley| OR: 96| CD

14/1

Hunter winner back in January 2019 but little promise since, including when well-beaten third at Fakenham last time. Tongue tied for first time.

Form: 45/P831-

Mister Serious¹²

Age: 12| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P Thomas⁽⁷⁾| T: A Burks| OR: 95

100/1

Had some success in points early in his career but returned from a long absence with a tame display on hunter debut at Warwick 86 days ago. Makes no appeal.

Form: P1P3/PP-

Moscow Prices^t¹⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D Andrews⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss L Mager

22/1

Poor bumper performer in Ireland. Has tasted success in points and was runner-up in that sphere earlier this month, but stiff task awaits here.

Form: 2224/51-

Trio For Rio^p³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Tommie M O'Brien| T: C Boultbee-brooks| OR: 127

6/4

Fairly useful chaser/winning pointer. First run since leaving Warren Greatrex when career best when landing 13-runner hunter chase at Ludlow 57 days ago, forging clear. Difficult to oppose.

Form: 545/313-

Wick Green²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P Mason⁽⁵⁾| T: P W Mason| OR: 110

3/1

Multiple point winner who left his form in novice hurdles well behind when landing a 4-runner hunter at Exeter 24 days ago. Another step forward would put him right in the mix.

Form: 111/761-

Forecasts

Trio For Rio (6/4), I'm Wiser Now (9/4), Wick Green (3/1), Fixe Le Kap (14/1), Knockaderry Flyer (14/1), Moscow Prices (22/1), Mister Serious (100/1)

TRIO FOR RIO made a most impressive start in hunters when forging away at Ludlow a couple of months ago and a performance of similar merit should be enough for him to supplement it. Hat-trick seeker I'm Wiser now is also a player and Wick Green can't be ruled out.
