10/3
Irish point winner made a promising Rules debut when second at Carlisle in October. Perhaps unsuited by sharper track at Uttoxeter last time and should progress now handicapping over a longer trip, with his opening mark looking workable.

Hurdle/chase winner in France. Not disgraced when sixth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, soft, 10/1) on return 24 days ago but others are preferred for win purposes.

Sole career came at this course. Produced his best effort of the season when second of 8 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, soft) 24 days ago and should be in the mix again.

Won at Ffos Las for Philip Hobbs last season but produced a lacklustre display over 20f on stable debut at Worcester last time. Bit to prove now.

Market Rasen juvenile winner last term and didn't shape too badly on return from summer break when fifth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (19.2f, soft) 56 days ago, tying up only late. Up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

Hit the frame a couple of times for Philip Fenton last winter and stepped forward from his yard debut when third of 8 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Ascot (24.4f, good to soft) 42 days ago. Thorough stayer may find a few too quick again.

Won mares novice on Rules debut at Bangor and improved her form when third in a stronger event at Kelso last time. Opening mark is reasonable and she could have a say.

Runner-up twice off higher marks than this during the first half of last season. Brought down early last time but there wasn't too much encouragement on his return at Uttoxeter last month and others make more appeal.

Improved for the switch to handicaps when winning 5-runner event at Market Rasen (23.1f, heavy) 43 days ago. 6 lb higher in the weights but holds solid claims again.

6/1
Mixed record last season and shaped as if needing the run when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (23f, good to soft, 9/1) 36 days ago. Still well weighted on his best form, so interesting to see if he attracts any support.

Resumed progress when winning 8-runner handicap hurdle (9/4) at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 30 days ago. This company is tougher but she's respected from 5 lb higher mark.

Forecasts

Harjo (10/3), Shighness (9/2), Lily Glitters (11/2), Golden Cosmos (6/1), Mr Harp (6/1), Ballymagroarty Boy (7/1), Apple Away (14/1), Sacre Coeur (20/1), Crossing The Bar (28/1), Fleurman (28/1), Happy Hollow (40/1)

12:30 Haydock - 30 December 2022 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

BALLYMAGROARTY BOY missed all of last season but proved he retains all ability when a good second at Uttoxeter and he is fancied to go one better here. Handicap debutant Harjo is interesting, with last-time-out winner Shighness also on the shortlist.
