13/2

Three-time chase winner in 2022 and placed twice over hurdles this season, including third over C&D 14 days ago. Thereabouts if in similar form.

Form: 552493

Stanley Pincombe²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Miss Molly Landau⁽⁷⁾| T: C Gordon| OR: 100

15/8

In good form back hurdling with a win at Taunton and a second at Wincanton in the spring. Good return from a break when second of 18 at Exeter under Molly Landau 4 weeks ago and taken to go one better now.

Form: RP12-62

Bert Wilson^t,v²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Miss Ella Herbison⁽⁷⁾| T: N J Hawke| OR: 96| CD

9/1

Reacted well to a visor last season, winning over C&D and at Chepstow. Pulled up back at Chepstow on his reappearance, though.

Form: U1P14-P

No Rematch¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Miss Imogen Mathias⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 92

5/1

Has struggled since winning a claiming hurdle at Leicester in February, including 2 outings back with this yard in recent weeks.

Form: P33-706

Jukebox D'eddy^h⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr James King| T: T R Gretton| OR: 90

40/1

Took a step forward over hurdles when going close at Wetherby on handicap debut in March but has disappointingly failed to build on that. Quickly reverts to hurdles after all but coming down at the first and pulled up on recent chase debut.

Form: 9526-7P

Maroochi⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss A Procter⁽⁷⁾| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 88

6/1

Deservedly shed maiden tag when dead heating at Newton Abbot (21.5f) last summer and back in form last twice. Place claims here.

Form: F-54P35

Gaia Vallis^t¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Nathan Rahman⁽⁷⁾| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 83

7/1

Went close in a handicap at Taunton in April. Might have needed her latest Stratford outing after 6 months off and could fare better now.

Form: 7332-66

Punches Cross^p³²

Age: 10| Weight: 10-5| J: Mr Billy Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 81

17/2

Placed twice over hurdles at Fontwell this summer and bounced back from a lesser run at Uttoxeter when third at Wincanton last month.

Form: 4P3263

Auld Sod^b⁷¹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-2| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁷⁾| T: Cynthia Woods| OR: 68

80/1

Dual chaser a few years back but little to shout about of late and remains to be seen whether a return to hurdles help him.

Form: 7-3PPP4

Forecasts

Stanley Pincombe (15/8), No Rematch (5/1), Maroochi (6/1), Ragamuffin (13/2), Gaia Vallis (7/1), Punches Cross (17/2), Bert Wilson (9/1), Jukebox D'eddy (40/1), Auld Sod (80/1)

If STANLEY PINCOMBE is in the same form as when second in a big field at Exeter last month he'll stand a good chance of going one better. Ragamuffin was third over C&D last time and is second choice ahead of Maroochi.
