Selected odds by:

Chedington's Guest⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: K Burke

22/1

From a successful family but has looked more one for the longer term on both starts to date.

Form: 64

Dessie Haze

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Conor Ring| T: P C Dando

66/1

Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Brother to modest hurdler Beau Haze. Dam (h145) bumper/2m-2¾m hurdle winner. Not an obvious sort on paper.

Form:

Jaccours¹⁰⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Fergus Gregory| T: O Murphy

7/2

Sent off 10/3 before a disappointing start at Aintree 107 days ago but has been given time off since, so may do better for a stable with a solid bumper record.

Form: 4

Jack Out Of Reach⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Daniel Sansom⁽³⁾| T: J W Mullins

6/1

Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser Jubilympics. Much better effort in bumpers when runner-up at Fakenham 55 days ago and should feature if he's able to back that up.

Form: 92

Western Knight³⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Jack Tudor| T: J Tizzard

9/2

Half-brother to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Ballybawn Belter. Showed plenty when runner-up at Plumpton on debut a year ago but obvious concern that he's not been seen since. Worth monitoring in the betting.

Form: 2-

Jena D'oudairies³³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Freddie Gingell⁽⁵⁾| T: P F Nicholls

6/5

Nicely-bred mare who has shaped with encouragement when third on both starts to date, clear of the rest at Hereford a month ago. Capable of opening her account now.

Form: 33

French Ship⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White

12/1

Never a threat at Kempton on debut and will need to step forward significantly if he's to make his presence felt.

Form: 4

My Boy Aaron²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Sean Houlihan| T: R Stephens

33/1

Related to a couple of winners and, while he failed to beat a rival in a 4-runner event at Chepstow 25 days ago, there was a hint of ability.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Jena D'oudairies (6/5), Jaccours (7/2), Western Knight (9/2), Woodland Park (5/1), Jack Out Of Reach (6/1), French Ship (12/1), Chedington's Guest (22/1), My Boy Aaron (33/1), Dessie Haze (66/1)

JENA D'OUDAIRIES came well clear of the remainder when third at Hereford last time and a performance of similar merit could be enough to get off the mark for all that others are quite closely matched on form. Woodland Park looks open to improvement and could emerge as the main danger.
