Selected odds by:

Double Digits²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Mrs A Hamilton| OR: 110

2/7

Irish point winner. Left his first 2 runs over hurdles behind when a close second at Newcastle (17f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Leading claims.

Form: 21/F-472

Kabuki^h1,t1²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 96

6/1

Debut bumper winner but he hasn't progressed over hurdles thus far, most recently finishing last of 4 on his Sedgefield handicap debut. Fitted with a first-time hood and tongue tie combination.

Form: 15-4374

Off To Alabama¹⁷²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: J Mackie

18/1

Sprung a 66/1 surprise on Wetherby bumper debut last February but well beaten in 2 bumpers and a novice hurdle since. Returns from 6 months off here.

Form: 16-86

Kimjoy¹⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 97

14/1

Modest form at best over hurdles for Stuart Crawford last spring/summer but did win an Irish point in October. Starts out for her new stable in a weak race and looks the chief threat to Double Digits.

Form: 6F-U861

Brindley^t¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Lee Edwards| T: P Neville

16/1

Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1m) for Jack Channon but only poor form in 2 maiden hurdles for new yard last month.

Form: 94

Forecasts

Double Digits (2/7), Kabuki (6/1), Kimjoy (14/1), Brindley (16/1), Off To Alabama (18/1)

DOUBLE DIGITS will be tough to beat if reproducing the form he showed when narrowly denied at Newcastle last month. Kimjoy won a point when last seen and is the obvious threat to Ann Hamilton's charge.
