Just Don't Know¹⁸⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-11| J: Craig Nichol| T: Paul Robson| OR: 120| C

12/1

Dual winner again last term and ran well here (course form figures 212) when last seen in May. Career-high mark to overcome on return but wouldn't dismiss.

Form:

Ned Tanner²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Bruce Lynn⁽³⁾| T: N W Alexander| OR: 119| C

11/4

Dual hurdles winner who scored twice over fences over further here last season. Should be all the better for his recent Carlisle return in a stronger race and he's a player down in trip.

Form:

High Moon¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: R Menzies| OR: 117

11/1

Fairly useful hurdles winner who was in good form over fences towards the end of last season, scoring in determined fashion at Newcastle. Probably needed the run after 6 months off at Carlisle and is likely to be much closer to form here. One to note.

Form:

Cardamon Hill¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 114| D

15/2

Maiden hurdle winner in Ireland for Gordon Elliott. Yet to really fire over fences but is slipping in the weights.

Form:

Massini Man²³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-1| J: Ryan Mania| T: A M Thomson| OR: 110

10/3

Thrived after joining this yard from John Groucott last season, scoring twice in handicap chases at Musselburgh at up to 3m. Promising return at Carlisle (2m) and should be spot on now with that behind him.

Form:

Return Fire^t³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 106

7/2

Likeable type and made the most of a good opportunity after 5 months off as he scored at Hexham 5 weeks ago, making all and jumping soundly. This is tougher up 3 lb.

Form:

Red Happy^t³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Jonathon Bewley| T: G Bewley| OR: 106

11/2

Notched up another victory at Exeter 4 weeks ago. Back up in grade for new yard but remains well treated on his peak form.

Form:

Forecasts

Ned Tanner (11/4), Massini Man (10/3), Return Fire (7/2), Red Happy (11/2), Up Helly Aa King (6/1), Cardamon Hill (15/2), High Moon (11/1), Just Don't Know (12/1)

MASSINI MAN should be spot on with his Carlisle return behind him and could be the way to go back up in trip here. Ned Tanner and Just Don't Know are a couple of others to consider.
