1/1
Useful hurdler/chaser with good record at Kelso. Ran well in class 2 handicap back over hurdles at Aintree 6 weeks ago and one to consider for yard among the winners.

12/1
Decisive winner of handicap hurdles at Wetherby and Haydock last season. Might have still needed his second run back last month at Aintree (pulled up behind Elvis Mail) and lurks on a good mark.

9/2
Dual winning novice hurdler last season (including over C&D). Fell at the first making chasing debut after 9 months off at Haydock and quickly back over the smaller obstacles in a handicap. Respected.

10/3
Dual hurdles winner in 2020 and ran best race yet in this sphere when second in hot handicap at Haydock (18.9f) 7 weeks ago, headed only late on. Up 3 lb but wouldn't dismiss back in trip.

12/1
Won at Haydock this time last year but rather hard to catch right again since, finding less than looked likely at Ayr having run well on his comeback at Hexham. Back down in trip.

Maiden hurdle winner for Gordon Elliott in Ireland, but little to shout about in various company for current yard. Hard to fancy back over hurdles.

ELVIS MAIL ran well back over hurdles in a deep handicap at Aintree 6 weeks ago and has a good record here, so he could be the way to go. Stainsby Girl is a big player after her fine effort at Haydock, while Word Has It is respected also.
