Selected odds by:

On A Promise⁸¹

Age: 9| Weight: 12-4| J: Craig Nichol| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 116WS

14/1

Progressive hurdler who made a successful stable debut over fences at Musselburgh in December, but mixed bag since, pulling up here on final outing in April. Has had a wind operation since.

Form: 4/1P22P-

Speredek¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: David Noonan| T: N J Hawke| OR: 110

4/1

One-time smart performer who may finally be ready to strike from a greatly reduced mark having run better than for a while when third at Uttoxeter (19.9f) a fortnight ago. Interesting.

Form: 054F-43

Lord Condi^v³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: C O'Farrell| T: I Jardine| OR: 107| CD

9/4

Capped his consistent recent spell with a win in 13-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (good) 35 days ago, ideally placed the way it went but winning comfortably. Should remain competitive.

Form: 6632-21

Pammi^p²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Harry Reed| T: J S Goldie| OR: 107| CD

4/1

Capitalised on a reduced mark when bagging 9-runner handicap hurdle (4/1) at this C&D (good) 22 days ago, staying on to lead run-in. 6 lb higher in a stronger race now but should remain competitive.

Form: 304-921

Putting Green^p³⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Sean Quinlan| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 105| CD

9/1

Back-to-back C&D winner in 2019 but temperament seems to be getting the better of him these days, looking none too keen when pulled up in C&D handicap won by Lord Condi last time.

Form: PPP3-0P

Largy Princess^t³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: James Bowen| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 105

22/1

Modest Irish hurdler who ran respectably when third of 5 in maiden hurdle at Sedgefield in May, but has been pulled up a C&D handicap since.

Form: 5003-3P

Class Bishop Lady⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: D A Jacob| T: Mrs D Foster| OR: 104

17/2

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules who took a step forward when fourth of 20 in 2m maiden hurdle at Punchestown 40 days ago. Remains with potential now handicapping based on bumper form.

Form: 3365-4

Dancing Doug^p²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Callum Bewley| T: A C Whillans| OR: 99| BF

8/1

Remains a maiden after 23 NH runs, but ran another good race when third of 8 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (23.3f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Enters calculations.

Form: 3F3-323

Top Billing^p¹³²

Age: 12| Weight: 11-0| J: Conor Rabbitt⁽⁷⁾| T: N G Richards| OR: 98| D

50/1

Landed back-to-back 3m1f handicaps at Cartmel last summer but well below form since.

Form: 3/110PP-

Late Date^p⁶⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: Alain Cawley| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 91| CD

80/1

Has been out of sorts for a while, pulled up on each of his last 5 starts, so hard to recommend.

Form: 4PPPP-P

Forecasts

Lord Condi (9/4), Pammi (4/1), Speredek (4/1), Dancing Doug (8/1), Class Bishop Lady (17/2), Putting Green (9/1), On A Promise (14/1), Famous Response (16/1), Largy Princess (22/1), Top Billing (50/1), Late Date (80/1)

A difficult race to be dogmatic about but one-time smart performer SPEREDEK stopped the slide when third at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago and may finally be ready to strike again. Class Bishop Lady remains with potential now switching to handicaps based on bumper form, with in-form pair Lord Condi and Dancing Doug others in the mix.
