Kilbrew Boy^v1²²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Charlie Case⁽⁷⁾| T: B I Case| OR: 98| C

16/1

Course winner but not been at his best this term and is now tried in visor for first time, switched back to hurdling.

Form: 49-3644

Midnight Mary^t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 98

3/1

Made winning return at Doncaster (24.4f) last month and may have found race coming too soon when fourth in Warwick follow-up bid. Enters calculations.

Form: 5413-14

Tiny Tantrum^v²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: J M Quinlan| T: L Wadham| OR: 96

6/5

Posted improved form in this sphere when second of 7 in handicap over C&D (soft, 15/2) 29 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and holds strong claims.

Form: 35-P442

Bolt N Brown^b¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 88

12/1

Has just a juvenile hurdle win to her name and can race lazily but she was largely consistent in handicap hurdles. Fell on chase debut here earlier this month and returns to smaller obstacles now.

Form: 4-3526F

Eglantier^h²⁴⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Miss L Bradstock⁽⁷⁾| T: M Bradstock| OR: 82

15/2

Won sole start in bumpers and far from disgraced when last seen in Stratford handicap hurdle (22f) 8 months ago. Not out of things.

Form: 4/637P-5

Avithos^b²⁸

Age: 12| Weight: 10-10| J: Fergus Gillard⁽³⁾| T: Mark Gillard| OR: 82| CD

5/1

C&D winner who ran respectably when fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (23f, heavy) 28 days ago. Can't be ruled out.

Form: 611-P55

Ratoute Yutty^t³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Lewis Stones⁽⁷⁾| T: C Fryer| OR: 74

50/1

Just 1 win from 29 NH runs and made little impact on belated return at Huntingdon 3 days ago.

Form: 5PP7P-0

Forecasts

Tiny Tantrum (6/5), Midnight Mary (3/1), Avithos (5/1), Eglantier (15/2), Bolt N Brown (12/1), Kilbrew Boy (16/1), Ratoute Yutty (50/1)

TINY TANTRUM responded well to first-time headgear when runner-up here last month and remains low mileage. He can get off the mark. Midnight Mary rates the principal danger.
