Settings
Selected odds by:
Fine start to the campaign when winning handicaps here/Cheltenham in the autumn prior to a good third at Newbury (24.2f) in December. Not entirely disgraced when midfield in the Pertemps Final last month and no surprise to see a better showing back down in class.
|
C&D winner who developed into a useful and tenacious stayer last year, winning twice. Promising second on return/chase debut in October but proved more miss than hit in trio of hurdle runs since. Return to this venue may help at least. Tongue tie added to cheekpieces.
|
Scopey sort who had too much pace for her rivals when resuming winning ways at Plumpton (25f) in January. Heavy ground an excuse at Haydock next time but beaten some way out back at the former track 25 days ago. Back up in trip now.
|
Doubled his tally when landing handicap at Aintree (24.7f) in decisive fashion on his reappearance. Efforts mixed in handful of starts since, including when well beaten in first-time cheekpieces here (26f) in March. Visor now the headgear of choice.
|
Point winner who was placed in bumpers and made a winning hurdles debut at Huntingdon in November. Has found just one too good on 2 of her 3 subsequent starts, just failing in a 3m Newbury handicap last month. Nudged up 4 lb for that but well worth considering.
|
Fair 2m winning hurdler last season who confirmed more positive signs from Taunton when landing an Exeter novices' handicap (21.6f) last month, jumping soundly and responding well. More on his plate up in grade but he's still relatively unexposed.

TAKE NO CHANCES was quick to dispel a mishap on her penultimate start when finishing runner-up back at Newbury 5 weeks ago, taking a while to pick up but ultimately just failing. Very much one to be interested in on that evidence, she looks to hold sound claims of going one place better. Hyland returned to calmer waters and Exeter scorer Jupiter Allen head up the dangers, with Saint Davy another to consider.
