Jelski^p³³

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Charlotte Jones| T: James Moffatt| OR: 105| CD

7/1

Back-to-back winner here last summer off higher marks but continues to operate below his best this term.

Form: 166-375

Arctic Ambition^b1⁴⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: Craig Nichol| T: Paul Robson| OR: 102

6/1

Lost his way for Gordon Elliott but step back in the right direction for this yard when second off reduced mark over C&D. Back in the doldrums at Worcester since, however, and headgear now applied.

Form: P47-628

Dr Sanderson³³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: R P McLernon| T: B Haslam| OR: 100| BF| CD

15/8

Last 3 wins have come at this track including over 17f in June. Good placed efforts here next 2 starts, likely to have gone close had he not been badly hampered last time, and he remains of interest.

Form: 5-34132

Animore^t1³³

Age: 11| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: H Burns| OR: 95| D

40/1

Capitalised on the drop to a career-low mark when scoring in an Ayr handicap hurdle in March 2023 but off over a year and left Iain Jardine prior to well-held fourth of 6 at Hexham and no better over this C&D since. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Form: 514/6-47

Kicksaftersix^h³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: Sean Quinlan| T: M Todhunter| OR: 81

9/2

Opened his account in a handicap chase at Hexham last summer and best effort since when good second at this course (17.3f, good to firm) 35 days ago, shaping as if return to this trip will suit. Player.

Form: 25-8352

Judicial Review^b1,t³³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Danny McMenamin| T: James Moffatt| OR: 75

7/2

Went the wrong way in bumpers (fair form at best) and made little impression over hurdles last term. Discouraging run tried in cheekpieces and tongue strap on handicap/chase debut. Little appeal.

Form: 80/750-4

Old Page^p⁹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Joshua Thompson⁽⁷⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 71

11/1

Long-standing maiden who is easy to oppose from out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Dr Sanderson (15/8), The King Of May (15/8), Judicial Review (7/2), Kicksaftersix (9/2), Arctic Ambition (6/1), Jelski (7/1), Cardamon Hill (7/1), Old Page (11/1), Animore (40/1)

The in-form DR SANDERSON might well have won but for being badly hampered when second to The King of May over C&D last month and can make amends off the same mark. Kicksaftersix is closely matched with the selection on their running here 5 weeks ago and is next best.
