Presenting Nelly^p1,t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Tristan Durrell⁽³⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 105| BF

28/1

Scored three times last year and shaped well on her reappearance. Disappointing favourite at Worcester last time but cheekpieces are applied now and she's worth another chance.

Form: P517-60

Red Windsor¹⁶²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Freddie Gordon⁽⁵⁾| T: C Gordon| OR: 104| CD

16/1

Fairly useful winner over hurdles at his best but just one effort of note last season and became increasingly temperamental. Others preferred.

Form: 42PP08-

Beat The Heat^v¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Sean Houlihan| T: J R Boyle| OR: 104| CD

16/1

4-time course winner, latest in June, and running creditably when fell 2 out in handicap hurdle here (17.7f, good) 10 days ago. Also took this in 2022 so he's In the mix with visor back on.

Form: 3P-71PF

Kelce⁴⁹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: James Bowen| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 103

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden for Colm Miurphy. Off 16 months since eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20.4f, good) but should sill have more to offer. Worth a market check.

Form: P687/08-

Ede'iffs Rock²³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Harry Kimber| T: W G M Turner| OR: 101| BF

16/1

Consistent sort who opened her account after a frustrating run of placed efforts in 13-runner handicap at Leicester in January. Stamina stretched over 3m at Wincanton next time and needs to hit the ground running after 7 months off.

Kalif D'airy^t1²²²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: N F Houlihan| T: G & J Moore| OR: 102

17/2

Ninth in Cheltenham listed bumper on debut and built on that when third in a pair of juvenile hurdles at Newbury and Hereford in the winter. Open to improvement on his return/handicap debut. Interesting.

Form: 933-

Broughshane²⁰⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 98

4/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Well-held fourth of 6 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft) 6 months ago. This winning Irish pointer remains with potential now going into handicaps though.

Form: 1R/3F4-

Golden Ambition^b⁷¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Kielan Woods| T: B Pauling| OR: 89

6/4

Modest maiden hurdler. Tailed off when unseated rider 2 out in handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good) 71 days ago. Blinkers back on with something to prove.

Form: 55P05-U

9/1

Got back on track reverted to this sphere when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Cartmel (17.2f, soft) 41 days ago. This C&D winner.is firmly in the picture despite a 5 lb rise.

Form: 467981

What's My Line^p¹⁶⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: M Goldstein| T: M Madgwick| OR: 79| C

12/1

Course winner and in good form last term until only tenth of 15 in handicap here (17.7f, good to firm) 168 days ago, going in snatches. Needs to bounce back.

Forecasts

Golden Ambition (6/4), Broughshane (4/1), Kalif D'airy (17/2), Miss Fedora (9/1), What's My Line (12/1), Kelce (12/1), Red Windsor (16/1), Ede'iffs Rock (16/1), Beat The Heat (16/1), Presenting Nelly (28/1)

Plenty with chances but KALIF D'AIRY appeals as a likely improver for Gary and Josh Moore now going into handicaps so edges the vote from Broughshane, who fluffed his lines when fourth at Huntingdon last time but remains capable of better on his first venture into handicap company. Recent Cartmel scorer Miss Fedora and top-weight Presenting Nelly can also have a say.
