Selected odds by:

Came From Nothing⁸⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill

11/1

Has a good pedigree and shaped a bit better than the distance beaten suggests on bumper debut at Exeter in November. Dropped away quick at Stratford 4 months later and now goes hurdling.

Form: 88-

Carapaz²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: David Dennis

40/1

Failed to complete both starts in points and merely hinted at ability on his recent Rules debut at Uttoxeter.

Form: FP-P

Churchman⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Jay Tidball⁽⁵⁾| T: A Ralph

11/2

Showed little in a brace of bumpers last year but shaped with more encouragement sent hurdling when seventh of 12 in a Ludlow novice (15.8f) 45 days ago, running on. That is the best hurdling form on offer.

Form: 2/307-

Islebriand⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Abbie McCain⁽⁵⁾| T: D McCain Jnr

50/1

Third in a Sedgefield bumper but well held in pair of maiden hurdles 12 months apart.

Form: 3/5-7

Master Player¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: J J Hanlon

1/1

Fair bumper performer who starts out over hurdles in a weak race, so must enter calculations.

Form: 0/637-34

Reggae De Baune¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Tom Cannon| T: D McCain Jnr

11/1

Showed more than on debut when fourth of 6 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, good, 11/4) 17 days ago. Makes hurdles debut.

Form: 5-4

Trick Of The Tail²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr

10/3

Fair form when in the frame both starts in bumpers. Hampered and fell first on hurdling debut in October but proved a disappointment at Worcester 24 days ago. Still early days but has something to prove on the back of that.

Form: 3/4B-7

Regal And Royal⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish

28/1

Doctor Dino gelding who was pulled up with an irregular heartbeat in junior bumper over C&D on debut 49 days ago.

Form: P-

Araglen Star¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: G Hanmer

250/1

Modest form at best in bumpers and went with little promise switched to hurdles at Cartmel 12 days ago.

Form: 8600-8

Hannah's Walk^h,t¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Fergus Gregory| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

200/1

No show in a bumper/novice hurdle for Warren Greatrex at the end of 2022 and again showed little tried in a hood and tongue tie on her first start for a new yard at Cartmel 12 days ago.

Form: 0P-7

On Cloud Nine^t²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Theo Gillard| T: D McCain Jnr

16/1

Runner-up on the second of 2 starts in points but has yet to better poor form under Rules.

Form: F278-3

Oneway Express²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Toby Wynne⁽⁵⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

80/1

Third sole start between the flags in February but has finished tailed off both starts over hurdles.

Form: 3-86

Forecasts

Master Player (1/1), Trick Of The Tail (10/3), Churchman (11/2), Came From Nothing (11/1), Reggae De Baune (11/1), On Cloud Nine (16/1), Regal And Royal (28/1), Carapaz (40/1), Islebriand (50/1), Oneway Express (80/1), Hannah's Walk (200/1), Araglen Star (250/1)

CHURCHMAN showed more than in a couple of bumpers switched to hurdling when seventh at Ludlow last month and may not need to improve much to land a much weaker contest here. Master Player displayed a fair level in bumpers so must enter the reckoning, while it remains early days for Trick of The Tail.
