Walk On Quest^t²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 105

9/4

Posted a career best when winning 11-runner handicap chase at Kelso (17.1f, good to soft) on his debut over fences 24 days ago. More to offer so he's expected to be bang there despite a 5 lb weights rise.

Form: 2/25-421

Geordies Dream^p¹⁷⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Craig Nichol| T: Miss P Robson| OR: 100| D

10/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time when getting off the mark in 10-runner novice hurdle at Kelso (16.2f, good to soft) 177 days ago. Much respected now going chasing with the headgear again sported.

Form: 05/323-1

Treaty Boy^t²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 99| D

9/2

Made a winning chase debut at Catterick in February on final run for Rebecca Menzies. Good second on yard debut there later that month but not in the same form in a pair of runs this term at Sedgefield and Carlisle. Needs to step forward.

Form: 4012-60

Tommy Combats²⁰⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Sean Quinlan| T: M Todhunter| OR: 97

4/1

Placed in Irish points and going the right way over hurdles, second of 12 in handicap at Perth (2m4f) in April. Can make his presence felt now starting out over fences.

Form: 5/64332-

Conquer The Breeze^t¹⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Ross Chapman| T: M A Barnes| OR: 91

28/1

A fair maiden hurdler but he fell on his chasing bow and was pulled up in handicap chase at Hexham (15.6f, good) 149 days ago. Something to prove now.

Form: 65-26FP

Fearless Action^p²⁹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Danny McMenamin| T: C Grant| OR: 90

9/1

Scored at Kelso last October and had a wind op before recording a creditable second of 7 to Treaty Boy in handicap chase at Catterick (15.7f, soft). Off 9 months since but still needs considering.

Form: 071552-

Ritson¹⁸²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: Theo Gillard| T: L Bailey| OR: 90| D

50/1

Badly out of sorts over fences since scoring on Boxing Day in 2022 and no real signs of a revival back over hurdles in May for Rebecca Menzies. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence.

Form: 7338-88

Iwa^b1¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Kielan Woods| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 85

11/1

Fair hurdler/chaser in France but has failed to match that form for Rose Dobbin and his current yard. Blinkers go on now.

Form: P44P-88

Titanium Bullet^p,t¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: G Sheehan| T: Miss J E Foster| OR: 85

16/1

Remains a maiden after 16 runs and last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (21.2f, good, 22/1) 18 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 343-596

Getaway Jewel¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-2| J: B S Hughes| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 78| D

9/1

Twelve runs since his last win in 2023 but he posted a creditable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (16.9f, good) 19 days ago. In the picture back over fences.

Form: 68-3565

Edmond Dantes⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: William Maggs⁽⁵⁾| T: F P Murtagh| OR: 69

100/1

Remains a maiden after 19 runs and pulled up in handicap chase at Sedgefield (16.4f, good) 5 days ago.

Form: 68P-07P

Forecasts

Walk On Quest (9/4), Tommy Combats (4/1), Treaty Boy (9/2), Fearless Action (9/1), Getaway Jewel (9/1), Geordies Dream (10/1), Iwa (11/1), Titanium Bullet (16/1), Conquer The Breeze (28/1), Ritson (50/1), Edmond Dantes (100/1)

WALK ON QUEST got off to the perfect start over fences at Kelso and a 5 lb rise in the weights doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from following up. Chasing-newcomer Tommy Combats brings a fair bit of potential and could emerge as the chief danger ahead of Getaway Jewel and Geordies Dream.
