5/4

Built up a fine partnership with this pilot, winning his last 5 starts, latest when landing short odds in novice hurdle over C&D (good to soft) 10 days ago. Looks sure to go well again.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 127| D

7/2

Not the most consistent but got back to winning ways with narrow victory in 8-runner Perth handicap hurdle (16.2f, good) 17 days ago, getting first run. Claims if in same mood again here.

Form: 5002-61

Solstalla^p⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-4| J: Page Fuller| T: D Weston| OR: 112| CD

3/1

Been in great form this summer, completing hat-trick of handicap victories before fine second from out of the weights at Worcester (16f, good) 9 days ago. Big player.

Form: 8-21112

State Crown^p⁸¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 112| BF| CD

5/1

Off the mark at sixth attempt when making all over C&D in April. Wasn't in same form at Aintree 2 months later, however, and makes limited appeal.

Form: 23661-9

Forecasts

Chez Hans (5/4), Solstalla (3/1), Blakeney Point (7/2), State Crown (5/1)

Preference is for SOLSTALLA, who has had a terrific summer and lost little caste in defeat at Worcester last time. Chez Hans rates the chief threat.
