Selected odds by:
Modest winner on the Flat who showed some promise when third in maiden at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) on hurdling debut in May. Shaped similarly when fifth at Fakenham last time and he's one for the shortlist, despite his free-going nature.
|
Maiden Irish pointer who went with little promise on his Rules debut when eighth of 10 in novice hurdle at this C&D (good to soft) 6 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere.
|
One-time useful performer on the level but modest at best nowadays, running below form in first-time visor when seventh of 13 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, heavy) last month. Has work to do tried over hurdles with headgear discarded.
|
Modest maiden on the Flat who fared little better in first-time cheekpieces when sixth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) when last seen in April. Improvement required with headgear left off as he goes hurdling.
|
Wasn't seem to best effect on debut when ninth of 12 in bumper at this C&D (good to soft) 18 days ago, colliding with rail and shuffled back end of back straight. Still looks to be up against it as he starts off over hurdles.
|
Wide-margin point/bumper winner who, following another wind op and fitted with a hood, left her hurdles debut effort behind when essentially outclassing 7 rivals at Fakenham (20f, good) last month, unchallenged. The one to beat.
|
Successful on sole outing in points and promise when placed in bumper at this course on Rules debut. Well held on his hurdling bow, but showed more when fourth in a Bangor novice (19.6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Remains capable of better.
|
Hinted at ability both starts in bumpers, making some late progress when seventh of 14 at Lingfield (16f, standard) in November. However, he looks to face a difficult ask as he goes hurdling after 7 months off.
|
Fair on the Flat at up to 14.5f for Hugo Palmer and was given a considerate introduction to hurdling when fourth of 10 in novice at this C&D (good to soft) 18 days ago, making late headway. Open to improvement with his recent run behind him.
|
Maiden on the Flat whose form had been going the wrong way this year, but showed a bit tried hurdling at Hereford in May. Ran to a similar level when third in novice at Bangor (16.7f, good) 11 days ago, though he'll need to find more for win purposes.
|
Fairly useful handicapper on the Flat who showed some aptitude for hurdling when fourth in a maiden at Plumpton (15.9f, good to firm) in May. However, went backwards from that effort when well held at Southwell (20.4f, good) 8 days ago.

Forecasts
Seeyouinmydreams (1/4), Double Oban (7/1), Touchwoodexpress (12/1), Frenelope (12/1), Kintaro (16/1), Bristol Hill (16/1), Solution (28/1), Midnight Shimmer (40/1), Ibiza Rocks (50/1), Wonder King (100/1), Dark Soldier (150/1), Pennant Legacy (150/1)
A useful winner in bumpers, SEEYOUINMYDREAMS got back on track making her second start over hurdles when comfortably landing the odds at Fakenham in May, so she looks to hold leading claims in her follow-up bid. Double Oban can take a step forward from his hurdling debut to pose the biggest threat, ahead of Bristol Hill.
- Double Oban7/1
