11/1

Punchestown maiden hurdle success for Gordon Elliott back in December 2016 remains his sole victory from over 40 starts under Rules. Others preferred despite tumbling mark.

Maughold Head^p1²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: B S Hughes| T: N G Richards| OR: 94

9/2

Promise when placed in a pair of 2m Ayr novice hurdles before Christmas but offered nothing in either outing since, latest on back of breathing operation/4-month absence. Something to prove.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Theo Gillard| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 91| D

7/2

Winner of a pair of novice hurdles at this sort of trip in March of last year and clear signs of a revival when fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft, 11/2) 18 days ago. Cheekpieces now added for first time and is shortlisted.

125/1

Returning from 18 months off when pulled up in handicap hurdle (150/1) at Sedgefield on yard debut 32 days ago. Hard to fancy.

Age: 10| Weight: 10-11| J: Danny McMenamin| T: C Grant| OR: 81| D

10/1

Well held over fences latest but posted a good second at Newcastle when last seen in this sphere in November and remains fairly treated.

Nights Of Doyen^b1,t¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Thomas Dowson| T: Kate Leckenby| OR: 78

12/1

Form: P8403/P-

More To Follow^h¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: D Bourke| OR: 69

Forecasts

Penpal (3/1), More To Follow (3/1), Red Vision (7/2), Maughold Head (9/2), Jims Apple (7/1), Strong Team (10/1), Calevade (10/1), Dakota Moirette (11/1), Nights Of Doyen (12/1), Lady Hamilton (12/1), Mistamel (125/1)

This can go to RED VISION, who has been given a chance by the handicapper and posted his best effort for some time when fourth at Southwell last month. Strong Team and Lady Hamilton can also make their presence felt.
