Selected odds by:

Sebastopol^t,v¹⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey| OR: 144

2/1

Smart chaser who gave every indication that he's come back as good as ever when capitalising on a lower hurdles mark in ready fashion at Newton Abbot 18 days ago. Likely to go well again.

Form: 12P1F-1

Ilikedwayurthinkin⁴⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: R P McLernon| T: B Haslam| OR: 132| D

13/2

Winning hurdler and useful chaser in Ireland but out of sorts when last seen, so starts out with something to prove for new yard.

Form: U34-76P

Minella Escape⁶⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-9| J: Charlotte Jones⁽³⁾| T: James Moffatt| OR: 125| D

12/1

Fairly useful hurdler/chaser at best for Henry de Bromhead, but struggled for form this season and a major revival is required.

Form: F/0P3-UF

Glinger Flame^p²⁰

Age: 11| Weight: 10-9| J: Sean Quinlan| T: N G Richards| OR: 125

9/2

Looked as good as ever when winning at Hexham (20.1f) in May and has remained in form since, third of 6 to Bucko's Boy at Stratford last time. Not completely discounted.

Form: 2/6-1283

Bucko's Boy^p²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 124

3/1

Better than ever since a wind op lately, scoring at Bangor and following up at Stratford last time. Latest success is backed up by the time and he boasts strong claims for the hat-trick.

Form: 347-311

Dallas Des Pictons^p¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-3| J: Conor Rabbitt⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 119

13/2

Useful hurdler/chaser at his best and bounced back to form from out of the blue when scoring at Hexham a fortnight ago. Remains well treated on past efforts if he's able to back that up.

Form: 93P-5P1

Forecasts

Sebastopol (2/1), Bucko's Boy (3/1), Glinger Flame (9/2), Dallas Des Pictons (13/2), Ilikedwayurthinkin (13/2), Minella Escape (12/1)

BUCKO'S BOY has been turned around by a breathing operation recently and is taken to complete the hat-trick at the likely expense of Sebastopol, who returned with an impressive display to score at Newton Abbot. Glinger Flame is also respected.
