Form: 0U

Mahler gelding who ran as if in need of run for fitness and experience in bumper/maiden hurdle.

Form: 93

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds

Has shown just modest form at best in bumpers but his pedigree offers hope for better now hurdling.

Mole Court¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: B Pauling

14/1

Down the field in bumper and shaped like a stayer when fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Hereford (19.7f, good) on hurdles bow 10 days ago.

Form: 74

Poet's Corner⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Max Kendrick| T: N B King

7/1

Successful sole outing in points but went the wrong way in bumpers following an encouraging start. Did show a lot more than on hurdling debut when fifth at Southwell last week but needs another run for a mark.

Form: 1-60695

Salsada¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: B Ellison| OR: 122| BF

1/2

Useful on the Flat for Jedd O'Keeffe and made a winning start over hurdles at Sedgefield in October, quickening clear after 2 out under a hands-and-heels ride. Failed to land the odds under a penalty back from a break at Musselburgh but good chance of resuming winning ways here.

Form: 12

Carn A Chlamain⁵⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: J J Burke| T: T Lacey

17/2

Fair maiden handicapper on Flat, stays 1¾m, but well held on stable debut following another breathing op last time. Goes hurdling now.

Form:

Prison Break¹⁷⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan

16/1

Fair winner on the Flat up to 14f for Richard Fahey so not taken lightly on jumps bow.

Forecasts

Salsada (1/2), Blenkinsop (13/2), Poet's Corner (7/1), Baileys Excelerate (8/1), William Of York (8/1), Carn A Chlamain (17/2), Larusso (10/1), Mole Court (14/1), Prison Break (16/1), Couldbeaweapon (16/1), Dogem By Design (50/1), El Diablo (100/1), Call Me Jezza (125/1)

SALSADA failed to land the odds at Musselburgh last time after 5 months off but she sets a clear standard here so can resume winning ways under a penalty. Blenkinsop left his hurdles bow well behind when third at Huntingdon and can place again, while Prison Break was a fair winner on the Flat for Richard Fahey so is not taken lightly.
