12/1

Winless over fences and looks on the downgrade for this yard.

Form: 2/P786-6

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: P W Wadge⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 97

10/1

Made a winning start over hurdles at Perth (2m) last autumn but disappointing on all 5 starts since, looking rather awkward switched to fences last 2 starts.

Form: 1870P-4

Mac Suibhne^t⁵⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 94

14/1

Made a positive start for this yard after joining from Ireland, winning over hurdles in July and making a successful debut over fences in a match race at Wetherby (21f) in October. Not so good since, however.

Azof Des Mottes^t⁴⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Jonathon Bewley⁽³⁾| T: G Bewley| OR: 89

10/3

Looked value for extra when winning 14-runner handicap chase (11/2) at Kelso (21.6f, good) 47 days ago, idling in front but impressing with his progress on the bridle. Player again from 3 lb higher mark.

Form: 9S8451-

Derracrin¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Jack Tudor| T: F P Murtagh| OR: 82| CD

7/4

Poor maiden handicap hurdler but finally got off the mark sent chasing over C&D 11 days ago, jumping adequately and forging clear. Must be respected on the back of that.

Form: 58745-1

Budarri^p,t¹⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-9| J: Danny McMenamin| T: W Coltherd| OR: 80| D

11/2

Scored at Musselburgh in February and at least respectable efforts in defeat since. Can't be discounted.

Form: 6812-45

Dr Shirocco¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Henry Brooke| T: Miss S E Forster| OR: 77

11/2

Remains a maiden after 25 runs but finished runner-up 3 times over fences over the winter and not disgraced both starts over hurdles last month. Likely to be in the shake-up again.

Form: 2246-37

Forecasts

Derracrin (7/4), Azof Des Mottes (10/3), Budarri (11/2), Dr Shirocco (11/2), Our Marty (10/1), Thatsy (12/1), Mac Suibhne (14/1), The White Volcano (25/1)

AZOF DES MOTTES has taken well to fences and had more in hand than the bare margin suggests at Kelso 7 weeks ago. He can defy a 3 lb rise at the main expense of Derracrin, who made a winning chase debut over C&D 11 days ago. Budarri looks best of the others.
