Apple Rock²³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Luca Morgan⁽³⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 108

7/4

Notched 3 wins in 2020/21 and stepped up his recent revival when staying on for third at Uttoxeter (23.3f) back in March. Returns with yard going along nicely and he's certainly one to bear in mind from this sort of mark.

Lelantos^p⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Nathan Brennan⁽⁶⁾| T: N J Henderson| OR: 106| BF| CD

7/2

Gained third hurdles win at Bangor (23f) in July and matched that level when runner-up back at that venue a month later. Probably best to overlook his chase debut display early on last month and he returns to timber with his yard in much better form.

Form: 11-312P

Grillon De Monty⁴⁷⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Tristan Durrell⁽³⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 102| D

12/1

7-y-o who won 3 cross-country chases at Blain-Bouvron-Le-Gavre in April/May 2021. Fell in similar company only start for David Cottin later last year and it'll be very interesting to see what the market makes of him for new yard/back over hurdles.

Form: 8P11/1F-

Belvedere Blast^v¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Tom Midgley| T: A Keatley| OR: 103

22/1

Off the mark over hurdles in a Hexham maiden (20f) back in June and back to that level when third at Uttoxeter (20f) last month, albeit with a sketchy round of jumping. Laboured display at Market Rasen since though and the visor is reached for now.

Form: 212U38

Release The Kraken^v1⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Patrick Cowley| T: L Morgan| OR: 98| BF

4/1

Modest maiden handicap hurdler for Nicky Richards who was very strong in the betting but ultimately disappointed when unseating early on chase/yard debut at Fakenham 7 days ago. Could bounce back returned to timber equipped with a first-time visor.

Form: 42044U

Lighthouse Mill¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: David Dennis| OR: 86

10/3

Showed ability on the second of his three qualifying runs and best effort yet in handicaps when staying on for fourth at Uttoxeter (20f) 10 days ago. Well worth another crack at this longer trip on that evidence and he's still low-mileage.

Form: 47-70P4

Realms Of Fire¹⁸⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Kai Lenihan⁽⁷⁾| T: L Allan| OR: 75| CD

33/1

C&D winner during early 2021 but largely disappointing during early part of this year and others make greater appeal back from 6 months off.

Form: 78FP7-8

Forecasts

Apple Rock (7/4), Lighthouse Mill (10/3), Lelantos (7/2), Release The Kraken (4/1), Grillon De Monty (12/1), Belvedere Blast (22/1), Realms Of Fire (33/1)

RELEASE THE KRAKEN made an inauspicious start over fences just 7 days ago yet the market support for him on debut for his shrewd yard that day looks significant and, having highlighted this mark is within reach over hurdles previously, he could be worth chancing to bounce back with a first-time visor reached for. Lighthouse Mill finished his race off well over shorter at Uttoxeter recently and is feared, along with Apple Rock who is lurking on a handy mark on return.
