Selected odds by:

Dynali^p¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Cillin Leonard| T: Ian Williams| OR: 100

6/1

Fair Flat winner, including on AW in May. Well held on his handicap hurdle debut back in December but he does arrive on the back of some decent efforts on the Flat in recent weeks.

Form: 347/0-

Calarules^t³²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Joe Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 98

18/1

Returned from an absence to reach the frame in a pair of handicap hurdles last winter. Sharper for a spin on the Flat last month. Could get involved.

Form: 365/42P-

Ballymilan^p³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Angus Cheleda| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 96| BF

7/2

Ridden differently to finally get off the mark in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell in July, making most. Respectable fifth over C&D since.

Form: 4-06215

Gerboise Borget²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr Nathan Brennan| T: B Pauling| OR: 91

11/4

Fourth in a 2m novice hurdle here in June. Not disgraced from too far back when seventh of 14 in Uttoxeter handicap over this trip last time. Unexposed.

Form: F-35467

Outsmartin⁴⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽³⁾| T: D Faulkner| OR: 88

100/1

Clearly hasn't been the easiest to train, given that he's a 9-y-o with just 5 appearances under his belt. Distant last of 4 in Market Rasen novice on recent return from absence. Handicap debut.

Form: 34P4/4

Istorius¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Harry Kimber| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 83

22/1

Fair maiden on Flat in France but yet to match that form over hurdles, including well beaten in a 19f Fontwell handicap a fortnight ago. Remains to be seen if longer trip makes a difference.

Form: 98600-7

Witch From Rome²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-5| J: Mr Ben Ffrench Davis⁽³⁾| T: Simon Earle| OR: 79| CD

4/1

Opened his account in C&D handicap in July. Caught the eye when fifth back here next time. Never involved when filling the same position at Uttoxeter since but he's respected back here.

Form: 90-4155

Racing Spirit^t,v1¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-4| J: Lewis Stones| T: Dave Roberts| OR: 78

10/1

Successful at Southwell in July 2020 but well beaten in 2 comeback runs this season. First-time visor replaces regular blinkers. Something to prove at present.

Form: 733/1-87

Flying Garry^p,t⁷⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Philip Armson| T: D A Rees| OR: 75

8/1

Limited sort who doesn't look entirely straightforward. Blinkers worn last time are quickly discarded and replaced by cheekpieces.

Form: PP/95-50

Forecasts

Gerboise Borget (11/4), Ballymilan (7/2), Witch From Rome (4/1), Dynali (6/1), Flying Garry (8/1), Racing Spirit (10/1), Calarules (18/1), Istorius (22/1), Outsmartin (100/1)

WITCH FROM ROME has run 2 encouraging races over C&D this summer so he might be worth siding with. A market move for the lightly-raced J P McManus-owned Gerboise Borget would make him a possible threat. Dynali, who is unexposed over hurdles, arrives fit from some creditable efforts on the Flat and is another to consider.
