Selected odds by:

Hasankey^p¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 120| D

7/4

Pretty consistent without success over hurdles last season and made a very encouraging start over fences when runner-up at Cartmel 19 days ago. Up 4 lb but has to be of interest.

Form: 63325-2

Lucky Flight^t⁶⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: S Mulqueen| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 119| CD

12/1

Dual hurdles winner who landed C&D novice handicap chase last summer. Went close at Kelso (17f) in March but pulled up at Ayr since (found to be suffering from an irregular heartbeat).

Form: 154P2P-

Monsieur Co^p,t¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Danny McMenamin| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 115| D

12/1

Below par since winning 17f Kelso handicap chase over Christmas, running no sort of race behind Hasankey at Cartmel.

Form: 15544-6

Ardera Cross^p¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-5| J: Sean Quinlan| T: W Young Jnr| OR: 113| CD

16/1

Three-time winner at Ayr since the turn of the year, but he has gone off the boil of late and was another behind Hasankey at Cartmel.

Form: 1196-35

Thisonesforollie^p¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: J C Gainford⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs D Foster| OR: 105

13/2

On a lengthy losing run, but brace of placed efforts in big-field handicaps in Ireland of late confirm she's in good nick. Has to command respect.

Form: 4F40-32

Fourth Of July^t²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: R P McLernon| T: R M Smith| OR: 103

15/2

Showed the benefit of wind surgery when winning back-to-back 17f Kelso handicap chases in March. Had an off day at Ayr and quickly back on the up when second to a thrown-in rival at Southwell.

Form: 24113-2

Schmidt^p¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: B S Hughes| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 102| D

5/1

Nearly 3 years since his sole success over hurdles but may find this a shade easier than the Irish handicaps he's been contesting.

Form: P87-433

Vino's Choice^t³⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-1| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 95| CD

8/1

Gained a first victory over obstacles in handicap chase in November. Disappointing in a range of disciplines since.

Form: 2182P-5

Forecasts

Hasankey (7/4), Schmidt (5/1), Thisonesforollie (13/2), Fourth Of July (15/2), Vino's Choice (8/1), Monsieur Co (12/1), Lucky Flight (12/1), Ardera Cross (16/1)

HASANKEY surpassed his hurdles form at the first time of asking over fences when finding only a course specialist (and subsequent winner) too strong at Cartmel 3 weeks ago and he looks to have a lot in his favour. Fourth of July is weighted to have a big say and is the obvious threat.
