Hay Meadow^t²²

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Conner McCann⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 115| BF| C| D

5/1

Course bumper winner who took a step forward to open her hurdle account at Ayr in March. Still finding when unseating at the last just as she'd been joined on C&D handicap debut the following month, so well worth another chance.

Wasdell Dundalk¹³³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-13| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽³⁾| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 114| C

50/1

Took a step back in the right direction when second of 5 in handicap chase at Ayr (24.1f, soft) 133 days ago, no match for winner. Back over hurdles.

Form: 41FPP2-

Park Annonciade^t³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: J J Slevin| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 112| C

4/1

Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023 but failed to stay when eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Ayr (24.3f, good) 34 days ago. Not ruled out back down in trip from an easing mark.

Go Go Chicago³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: Ruth Jefferson| OR: 110

5/1

Lightly-raced winner over hurdles who resumed progress when second of 9 in novice hurdle at Kelso (18.1f, good) 38 days ago. Shortlist material back in handicap company.

Form: 1372-

Frisby^t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: B S Hughes| T: P Neville| OR: 109

4/1

Runner-up sole outing in bumpers and again shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when third of 10 in C&D maiden (soft) 22 days ago, no extra from last having threatened briefly early in straight. One to consider on handicap debut.

Form: 12/343-

Artic Row^p,t²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Dominic Hislop⁽¹⁰⁾| T: N W Alexander| OR: 107| D

10/1

Shaped much better than the distance beaten suggests down in grade and in first-time cheekpieces when fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Haydock (19.9f, good, 6/1) 26 days ago, held when chance-ending mistake last. Ridden by an inexperienced rider on first hurdle start for 2 years.

Form: F32565-

Summergrounds³⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 105| D

5/2

Likeable type who was value for extra when supplementing his Musselburgh success in 13-runner handicap hurdle at Ayr (20.4f, good) 34 days ago, leading near finish. Much respected in hat-trick bid.

Form: 323211-

Belle Of Annandale^p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Quinlan| T: R M Smith| OR: 92| C

22/1

Course winner who went backwards from her stable debut when last of 5 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle in January and again ran below form following a breathing operation here 3 weeks ago. Back up in trip.

Forecasts

Summergrounds (5/2), Park Annonciade (4/1), Frisby (4/1), Go Go Chicago (5/1), Hay Meadow (5/1), Artic Row (10/1), Belle Of Annandale (22/1), Wasdell Dundalk (50/1)

A competitive-looking handicap for the level. HAY MEADOW was still finding when unseating her rider at the last on her handicap debut over C&D last month, so is well worth another chance on that basis. Go Go Chicago and hat-trick seeker Summergrounds head the opposition.
