Selected odds by:

Wick Green³³

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P Mason⁽⁷⁾| T: J Mason| OR: 105

9/1

Multiple point winner who has scored a couple of times under Rules and wasn't discredited at Exeter last time. He struggles for consistency, however.

Form: PP1474-

Uallrightharry^v1²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: N F Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: K Jewell| OR: 105| CD

13/2

C&D winner who found his run of good form coming to an abrupt halt when pulled up here 3 weeks ago. He's the type to bounce back quickly, though. Change of headgear.

Form: 25222P-

Prairie Town^p²²

Age: 11| Weight: 11-8| J: Harry Bannister| T: A W Carroll| OR: 99| CD

17/2

Unreliable sort who scored again at Leicester in January. Hasn't fired since although did win this last year.

Form: P16437-

Tikk Tock Boom^p²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 11-4| J: C J Todd| T: Ian Williams| OR: 95| D

15/2

On a good mark judged on past efforts and latest third at Stratford was a bit better, so she's not without hope.

Form: 73/6463-

Blame The Game^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 93| C

11/8

Capitalised on a handy mark over hurdles here 20 days ago and, while his chase record is pretty uninspiring, the handicapper has given him a big chance, so he could take this.

Form: 6PP481-

Hoot At Midnight^p¹⁶⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 85| D

9/2

Lost her maiden tag at Fontwell in November and could be forgiven a poor run at Lingfield (had been on the go a long time) since. Warrants respect back from 5 months off.

Form: 322417-

Auld Sod^p²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: Cynthia Woods| OR: 74

14/1

Limited sort who looks up against it from out of the weights.

Form: 235U24-

Forecasts

Blame The Game (11/8), Hoot At Midnight (9/2), Uallrightharry (13/2), Tikk Tock Boom (15/2), Prairie Town (17/2), Wick Green (9/1), Auld Sod (14/1)

BLAME THE GAME failed to fire over fences earlier this season but he's much lower in the weights now and was successful over hurdles at this track last time, so he's fancied to get the better of Uallrightharry, who gives his running more often than not. Hoot At Midnight is also considered.
