Selected odds by:

Present Storm²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: B S Hughes| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 99

6/1

Well beaten in maiden hurdles in Ireland but won a point in April and showed a bit more when third of 6 in a Southwell novice for new yard 3 weeks ago. More to come in handicaps.

Form: 709R1-3

Isthebaropen^t⁸⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Bryan Carver⁽³⁾| T: G Hanmer| OR: 99WS

5/1

Easily best effort when a keeping-on second at Stratford (2m) in March. Since undergone a wind op, which may help her finishing effort up in trip.

Form: 4/57602-

Ballymilan³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 95

14/1

Likely needed the run and held back by her jumping on last month's return to action. This will reveal more back in distance.

Form: 94364-0

Sinndarella⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey| OR: 92

4/1

Fair winner on Flat in France in 2019. Yet to make a significant impact in this sphere, but more like it when third over 23.9f at Taunton in April.

Form: 55443-

Dolly McQueen¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Liam Harrison⁽⁵⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 89

12/1

Modest winner at 11f on Flat. Has yet to better that form over hurdles but she's in good hands and it remains early days.

Form: 6766-

Flintara³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Brendan Powell| T: R Bandey| OR: 89

15/2

Yet to get her head in front but posted another good effort at Fontwell when third in a 21.8f handicap a month ago. Can remain competitive.

Form: 5/5460-3

Kentford Mallard^p¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: M G Nolan| T: J W Mullins| OR: 87| BF| D

9/1

On a lengthy losing run and could manage only third of 4 when favourite to land a 23f handicap at Worcester 12 days ago, albeit it was a fair effort. Drop back in distance likely to suit.

Form: 873-363

Lady In Hiding^t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: A M Hales| OR: 87

12/1

In the frame all 3 bumpers in 2019. No impact both starts over hurdles for Oliver Sherwood but did shape better at Warwick on recent stable bow and she now tackles a handicap.

Form: 433/0P-4

Gold Leader⁸⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 85

15/2

Not devoid of appeal on paper and seems sure to leave behind low-key trio of qualifying runs within a 6-week period. Step up in trip also expected to suit.

Form: 777-

Dry Ol'party⁶⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 10-3| J: Miss Chloe Emsley⁽⁷⁾| T: K Woollacott| OR: 76

28/1

Disappointing for Stuart Kittow when last seen in 2018. Placed between the flags in April and has a lowly mark to try and exploit for new yard.

Form: 14453/3-

Altumanina²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Alan Johns| T: S Allwood| OR: 75

12/1

Has looked pretty limited throughout her career but she shaped quite well when fourth at Bangor last month given plenty of things went against her. Now looks of interest.

Form: P8P44-4

Maureen's Star²⁰⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: H Burns| OR: 75| D

125/1

Poor handicap chaser in Ireland and low-key start for this yard. Switches to hurdling.

Form: 58F75P-

D'edge Of Glory¹⁰⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Daniel Hiskett⁽³⁾| T: R Potter| OR: 73

50/1

Well beaten completed start over hurdles but does make handicap debut for yard among the winners.

Form: PP00-

Forecasts

Sinndarella (4/1), Isthebaropen (5/1), Present Storm (6/1), Flintara (15/2), Gold Leader (15/2), Kentford Mallard (9/1), Dolly McQueen (12/1), Altumanina (12/1), Lady In Hiding (12/1), Mrs Doubtfire (12/1), Ballymilan (14/1), Dry Ol'party (28/1), D'edge Of Glory (50/1), Maureen's Star (125/1)

Having won a point in April, PRESENT STORM offered more than previously under Rules when third in a 2m novice here 3 weeks ago. Sure to relish this trip now handicapping she makes plenty of appeal, with Lady In Hiding, Altumanina and Mrs Doubtfire all of interest.
