Mellow Ben¹⁴⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 118

10/1

Arrives on a lengthy losing run, but he posted good third of 16 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (26.1f) in June. Weighted to go well back in this sphere for first time since 2019.

Form: 767-273

Inca Rose^p1,t²⁰³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 117

7/2

Runner-up sole bumper start in March 2020 and has occupied the same spot in two novice hurdles, latest at Warwick in May. Can't be discounted on his comeback now going handicapping.

Form: 2/52-2

Not At Present^p²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Luca Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 117

9/2

Made it 2-4 this season with gutsy victory in 23f handicap hurdle at Bangor 27 days ago. Still on the up, so he's not taken lightlly despite 5 lb rise.

Form: P5-2121

Neverbeen To Paris²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Bryony Frost| T: P G Murphy| OR: 114| C

5/1

Ended a long losing run when getting up late in 20f handicap hurdle at Plumpton 21 days ago. Still figures on a handy mark, so he's sure to make his presence felt again now back up in trip.

Form: 0-76331

Khan^t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| OR: 113| D

11/4

Bagged a third win of the season in 23f handicap hurdle at Lingfield 13 days ago, always holding on. Up 3 lb but he can give another good account.

Form: 145121

Vaziani^p²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: H Cobden| T: R Walford| OR: 112| D

25/1

Fair 3m winning hurdler at his best but off 13 months before below-par seventh in 3m Chepstow handicap 27 days ago. Needs a big step forward now.

Form: 9310/P-7

Major Robinson^b1¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| OR: 104

6/1

Bumper winner, but yet to win for his current yard and he arrives on back of below-par sixth in 23f Exeter handicap 12 days ago. Blinkers reached for now with a bit to prove.

Form: 82-F576

Forecasts

Khan (11/4), Inca Rose (7/2), Not At Present (9/2), Neverbeen To Paris (5/1), Major Robinson (6/1), Mellow Ben (10/1), Vaziani (25/1)

NEVERBEEN TO PARIS capitalised on a much reduced mark when scoring at Plumpton and is fancied to follow up raised just 3 lb with this longer trip a plus too. Mellow Ben hasn't run over hurdles since 2019 but also looks handily weighted and is feared most. Recent Bangor scorer Not At Present can't be discounted either in an intriguing handicap.
