14/1

Bumper winner but yet to score in this sphere and only sixth of 10 in novice hurdle (6/1) at Hexham (20.1f, good) 17 days ago. Makes handicap debut with more needed.

Form: 148/5-36

Rory And Me^p,t¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 99| C

11/1

Course winner who took a step back in the right direction in first-time cheekpieces after 6 weeks off when fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at this C&D 18 days ago. One to consider.

Form: 5/1657-4

Bentham^t¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: Sara Ender| OR: 97

33/1

Winless since landing a Bellewstown maiden hurdle in July 2020 for Gavin Cromwell. Only seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, good) 16 days ago on yard debut so others are preferred. Tongue strap back on.

Form: P0787-7

Pileup^v1²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR: 96| BF

9/4

Fair maiden hurdler who returns to this sphere having posted a respectable fourth of 8 in handicap chase here (21.4f, good to soft) 28 days ago. In the mix in a first-time visor.

Form: 4722P-4

Summergrounds²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 95

11/2

Fairly useful bumper form. Has hinted at promise over hurdles, off 3 months before fifth of 8 in novice at Newcastle (16.9f, good) 24 days ago. Up in trip for his handicap debut. Merits consideration.

Form: 244/63-5

Magna Moralia^p¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 91

16/1

Fair 12f Flat winner last spring who arrives in good nick over hurdles for his current yard, second of 6 in C&D handicap 18 days ago. Merits serious consideration nudged up 1 lb.

Form: 58P5-72

Misty Mani²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: P D Niven| OR: 89| C

13/2

Rattled off a hat-trick over extended 18f here in September and has continued in good nick, fifth of 11 in handicap over C&D (good to soft) 28 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up once more.

Form: U3552-5

Teescomponentsfly^p1²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Tom Midgley⁽³⁾| T: G Boanas| OR: 88

11/1

14f Flat winner but yet to score in this sphere. Looked rusty after 13 months off when ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft, 28/1) 28 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now and can take a step forward.

Form: 73/333-9

Dora De Janeiro²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-10| J: Henry Brooke| T: S G West| OR: 81WS

9/1

Twelve runs since her last win in 2021. 8/1, only tenth of 11 in handicap hurdle over C&D (good to soft) 28 days ago so her subsequent wind op needs to spark a resurgence.

Form: 0735P-0

Sindabella^p⁴³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: David Noonan| T: N J Hawke| OR: 76WS

7/1

Arrives below form, only seventh of 13 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Taunton (23.9f, soft) 43 days ago. Cheekpieces back on but weighted to go well if breathing surgery yields improvement.

Form: P5P477-

Third Avenue^p,t²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: J Kington| T: A Crook| OR: 76

33/1

Modest Flat winner. Only poor so far over hurdles and pulled up in novice hurdle at Hexham (23.3f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Lots to prove on handicap hurdle debut.

Form: P5-P

Celestial Park^h¹⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: J M Quinlan| T: B I Case| OR: 72

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 125/1, seventh of 11 in novice hurdle at Doncaster (20.8f, soft) 150 days ago. Should improve now going into handicaps so not dismissed.

Form: 8/607-

Forecasts

Pileup (9/4), Summergrounds (11/2), Misty Mani (13/2), Sindabella (7/1), Dora De Janeiro (9/1), Teescomponentsfly (11/1), Rory And Me (11/1), Kopa Kilana (14/1), Magna Moralia (16/1), Ygritte (20/1), Celestial Park (25/1), Bentham (33/1), Third Avenue (33/1)

MAGNA MORALIA is proving a consistent sort and can gain a deserved first success for his current yard on the back of a good C&D second. Summergrounds appeals as a likely improver now going into handicaps stepped up in trip so rates a big threat. Course winner Misty Mani and the handily-weighted Sindabella complete the shortlist in an open handicap.
