Clondaw Hollow^t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: S Bowen| T: J C McConnell| OR: 116

5/4

Readily surpassed previous hurdles exploits when landing an 18.7f maiden in August, well suited by positive tactics. Not disgraced on Flat since and looks an obvious player back in this sphere.

Form: 317/44-1

Findthetime²⁸⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: B S Hughes| T: N G Richards

10/3

€55,000 3-y-o, Shantou gelding. Dam (h108), placed over hurdles/ran once over fences. Every chance when fell last sole start in Irish points. Big player, particularly if strong in the market.

Form: F-

Get 'em In^t⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Ross Chapman| T: M A Barnes

125/1

Bred to make a jumper but, based on his introduction at Southwell 72 days ago, he's going to need more time.

Form: 8

Shoeshine Boy¹⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Craig Nichol| T: D W Whillans

40/1

Has shaped like a stayer in a pair of bumpers and a novice hurdle so far, so more likely to make an impact once handicapping. Now returns from 145 days off.

Form: 65-6

Galsworthy⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Mrs J C McGregor

33/1

Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1½m) and made a solid hurdling debut at Worcester in the summer. Pulled up there next time and has left Dr Richard Newland since, so bit to prove back from 63 days off.

Form: 3P

Hector Master¹⁶⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: T Scudamore| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell

14/1

Encouraging start in Newcastle bumper in December. Failed to build on that and, while he's bred to take to obstacles, he might need this first experience of them.

Form: 247-

Punxsutawney Phil¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Henry Brooke| T: B Ellison| D

7/4

Shirocco gelding who made a winning start in an AW Newcastle bumper in February. Not disgraced under a penalty next time and made a promising hurdling debut when third at Stratford. Could improve.

Form: 14-3

Toutatis²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Callum Bewley| T: Ewan Whillans

33/1

Well held in 3 Flat starts (2 for David O'Meara) since twice finishing placed in bumpers for Fergal O'Brien and has offered little short-term promise so far over hurdles.

Form: 326-65

Miss Mistral²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd

150/1

Poor maiden on Flat and no more promise on initial hurdling outing at Sedgefield last month.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Clondaw Hollow (5/4), Punxsutawney Phil (7/4), San Fermin (3/1), Findthetime (10/3), Hector Master (14/1), Toutatis (33/1), Galsworthy (33/1), Shoeshine Boy (40/1), Get 'em In (125/1), Miss Mistral (150/1)

CLONDAW HOLLOW improved when readily making all in a Downpatrick maiden in August and has shown his well-being on the Flat subsequently, so he's narrowly preferred Findthetime, who showed ability between the flags and looks a fascinating Rules debutant.
