Get Your Own¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: C Gethings| T: A M Hales| OR: 120

5/1

Fair winning novice hurdler last season who made a solid start to his chase career when third of 13 at Lingfield (2½m) last month. Respected off the same mark.

Form: 9124-83

Ain't My Fault^p,t¹⁸⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: James Bowen| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 120

11/1

Scored twice around 2m over fences last season. Failed to stay 3m at Perth when last seen in June but he is fine at this sort of trip if ready to roll after a break.

Form: 6417-48

Song Of The Hunter^t³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Charlie Price⁽³⁾| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 119

11/1

Lightly-raced winning hurdler who was placed on all 4 completed starts in handicaps last season. However, he ran poorly on last month's chase return for a new yard so can only really be watched here.

Form: F3222-0

The Mighty Arc^t²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: B S Hughes| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 118

4/1

Placed in novice hurdles last term and improved on those efforts when making a successful chase/handicap debut at Worcester last month. Raised 8 lb but there's more to come.

Form: F3/732-1

Dr Sanderson¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: R P McLernon| T: B Haslam| OR: 117

10/3

Formerly useful chaser for Paul Nicholls who bounced back to form to take advantage of his reduced mark at Ayr (2m) 18 days ago. Up 5 lb but he remains well treated on old form.

Form: 887481

Le Ligerien^t³³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Ben Jones| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 117| DWS

11/1

Useful hurdler at this peak. Has struggled to see his races out under Rules in recent times, including over fences, but he does arrive on back of a point win last month.

Form: 4428-41

Java Point^t³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: J J Burke| T: T R George| OR: 117

6/1

Fairly useful winning hurdler for Kim Bailey last season. Wasn't suited by the drop back to 2m on his chase debut/reappearance for a new yard last month and he may do better back over further.

Form: 52215-0

Monarchofthegrange²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Lorcan Williams| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 113

22/1

Fairly useful hurdler who ended his time with Nigel Twiston-Davies by landing a Leicester novice seller last month. New connections waste no time switching him to fences.

Form: 8545-31

Exit To Where^p,t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: C O'Farrell| T: I Jardine| OR: 110

16/1

Second success for this yard (both 3m) when seeing off 7 rivals in the mud at Ayr in May. Posted a couple of lesser runs back from a break last month, though. Bounce back needed.

Form: 353-158

Morgenstern^p,t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| OR: 114

16/1

Fair 3-time winner hurdler in France. Yet to reach quite the same level over fences, including a well-held fourth at Chepstow on last month's yard debut, but it's still early days in this sphere.

Forecasts

Dr Sanderson (10/3), The Mighty Arc (4/1), Get Your Own (5/1), Java Point (6/1), Song Of The Hunter (11/1), Le Ligerien (11/1), Ain't My Fault (11/1), Doktor Glaz (14/1), Exit To Where (16/1), Morgenstern (16/1), Monarchofthegrange (22/1)

THE MIGHTY ARC scored in nice style on his Worcester chase debut 4 weeks ago and is fancied to make light of an 8 lb rise with further improvement very much on the cards. Get Your Own made a solid start to his chase career at Lingfield recently and is feared most ahead of Dr Sanderson, who got back to winning ways at Ayr last month and remains well treated on his best efforts.
