Selected odds by:

Be The Difference²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 108| D

11/10

Big improvement to win last 2 starts at Ayr, landing the odds with a bit to spare under a penalty last month. 11 lb higher now but remains of interest.

Form: 30-6211

Lettie Lutz¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Jack Andrews| T: Ben Clarke| OR: 107

15/2

Sent off a big price but promising start when third in a maiden hurdle at Chepstow and backed that up when fourth at Exeter. Should have more to offer stepped up in trip on handicap bow.

Form: 2-34

Treasure Dillon^p²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Isabel Williams⁽³⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 102

5/1

Chepstow winner off 5 lb higher in 2019. Shaped as if retaining ability after 21 months off there 4 weeks ago and interesting contender with that run under his belt and headgear re-fitted.

Form: 37F58/5

Maggies Mogul^b1³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Philip Armson⁽⁶⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 95

22/1

Point winner who shaped well in Ffos Las bumper on Rules debut. However, no show in 4 starts over hurdles since, including on handicap debut. Headgear now tried.

Form: 1/4P7-48

Golden Glory^p1,t²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽⁵⁾| T: R Stephens| OR: 90

13/2

Maiden who ended last season with 2 poor efforts but shaped as if retaining ability after 8 months off when fourth at Ludlow and entitled to come on for that. Headgear applied.

Form: 3/7708-4

Steel Native^t²⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: Ben Godfrey| T: D A Rees| OR: 89| CD

11/1

Snapped a long losing run back hurdling here (3m) in a first-time tongue strap in February. Well held back over fences since, including on return, but could bounce back returned to this sphere.

Form: PP1PP-7

Auenwirbel²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-4| J: Mitchell Bastyan| T: Mrs L J Young| OR: 86| D

11/1

Modest hurdler who took advantage of handy mark when landing a 19f selling handicap at Taunton in February. Shaped quite well when fifth at Lingfield on return and not taken lightly.

Form: 1754-75

Timeforadance^p1,t1³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: K Brogan| T: B Eckley| OR: 86

11/1

Poor form, offering little after 6 months off at Hereford. Tongue strap on for 1st time/cheekpieces on for 1st time.

Form: 7946-P8

Forecasts

Be The Difference (11/10), Treasure Dillon (5/1), Golden Glory (13/2), Lettie Lutz (15/2), Auenwirbel (11/1), Timeforadance (11/1), Steel Native (11/1), Freddie Darling (14/1), Maggies Mogul (22/1)

It could be worth chancing TREASURE DILLON, who shaped as if retaining all his ability back from a long absence at Chepstow and is 5 lb below his winning mark. The thriving Be The Difference is the obvious threat as he bids for the hat-trick, while Freddie Darling is potentially on a handy mark back over hurdles.
