15/8

Fair maiden on the Flat and off the mark in this sphere at the second attempt in a 7-runner juvenile hurdle at this C&D (good, 7/4) 17 days ago. That race was weak but he clearly knows what is required for this job and is a player.

Mutara^b,t¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 11-7| J: David Bass| T: S Curran| OR: 107| BF

7/2

Off mark at Stratford in July and probably ran at least as well in defeat when second of 4 there (16.3f, good) 13 days ago. Sets the standard.

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

6/4

Fair Flat winner, making jumps debut. Looked a bit rusty when third of 6 in handicap (5/2) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 20 days ago. Not ruled out on first start in this sphere.

Mr Freedom¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: M Goldstein| T: Miss S West

9/1

Modest maiden on the Flat. 16 lengths third of 7 to Graffiti on hurdles debut at this C&D (good, 6/1) 17 days ago, looking badly in need of experience. Others are easier to fancy after that performance.

Form: 3

Miss Fedora

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: M G Nolan| T: J W Mullins

33/1

2,500 gns 3-y-o, Helmet filly. Dam runner-up in maiden sole start on Flat. Not an obvious type on paper.

Forecasts

Executive Pool (6/4), Graffiti (15/8), Cabrakan (11/4), Mutara (7/2), Mr Freedom (9/1), Miss Fedora (33/1)

CABRAKAN is the best of this bunch on the level and represents a yard who know the time of day when it comes to readying new recruits to hurdling, so he may have enough in his locker to claim the scalps of previous winners Graffiti and Mutara.
