Selected odds by:
Fairly useful Flat/hurdles winner but only eighth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham in November. Since had a wind op and needs to bounce back reverted to this sphere.
|
Scored at Hereford in November and a good second of 9 in handicap hurdle (11/2) at Wetherby (19.7f, soft) 28 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and needs considering.
|
Off for 9 months since falling 5 out in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (23.9f, soft). Needs to hit the ground running.
|
Landed 2m4f Aintree handicap in May but only ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (20.2f, good to soft) 40 days ago. Needs to get back on track.
|
Failed to go in two runs over fences, pulled up in handicap chase (7/2) at Newbury (23.4f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Not ruled out though now back in this sphere.
|
Not disgraced when eighth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Ascot (15.7f, good to soft) 34 days ago. A dual winner last season so he's one to consider now back up in trip.
|
Got off the mark at Uttoxeter in October but raced too freely on his handicap debut when sixth of 8 at Doncaster (2m3f) last time. No forlorn hope.
|
C&D winner who wasn't disgraced when fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to soft) 28 days ago. In the mix with cheekpieces back on.
|
A three-time 2m winner in 2022/23 but off for 13 months since a below-par seventh in handicap hurdle at Lingfield. Has his fitness to prove.
|
Yet to fire in two runs for his current yard, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (25.8f, soft) 28 days ago. Something to prove now.
|
Improved model in handicaps this autumn, scoring here in October and a good third of 14 at Chepstow (16f, good to soft) 27 days ago. That form is working out well so he's a likely player eased 1 lb and now going up in trip.
|
Looked in good nick until pulled up (badly hampered 3 out) in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, soft) 52 days ago. Weighted to go well after a break.
|
Landed handicaps (up to 3m) at Fontwell and Lingfield this winter before posting a good second of 6 in handicap at Ascot (23.5f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Can go well again.
|
A fairly useful ex-French hurdler but he came in only eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (16f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Back up in trip with more required.

Soldierofthestorm (4/1), Gold For Alec (9/2), Salley Gardens (5/1), Golden Ambition (13/2), Jazz King (17/2), Kintail (10/1), Jubilant (10/1), Royal King (12/1), Through The Ages (14/1), Thunderclap (16/1), Teorie (16/1), Masked Dance (18/1), Windsurfer (20/1), Colonial Empire (40/1), No But I Will (50/1)
This could go the way of GOLD FOR ALEC who arrives at the top of his game and can resume winning ways on the back of a good Chepstow third (form been franked). Golden Ambition is also enjoying a productive season and heads the list of dangers, although the likes of Through The Ages, Jazz King and Salley Gardens also need factoring into this very open handicap.
- Golden Ambition13/2
- Through The Ages14/1
