Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: K Brogan| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 103

20/1

Scored at Haydock in December but came in last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Has work to do.

Form: 1430-76

Let Me Go Boys^t³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 103

10/1

Lightly-raced maiden took a step forward on his second handicap start when third of 7 at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good to soft) 38 days ago. One to consider.

Form: 2/0448-3

Belles Benefit^p²⁰¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Bannister| T: B I Case| OR: 100

11/1

Landed 3m Plumpton handicap in October but off 6 months since a creditable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (24.4f, good to soft). Not ruled out though given she has won off a break.

Form: U21454-

Findthetime^p³⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: James Bowen| T: W Coltherd| OR: 99

20/1

It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2024 and he came in last of 5 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (16.2f, good) 38 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others appeal more.

Form: PP667-5

Tropical Speed^b1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 98

13/2

In good nick over hurdles but cheekpieces tried when only sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (24f, good) on debut over fences 18 days ago. Not discounted back in this sphere with blinkers added.

Form: 36P1-36

Regal And Royal⁶⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 94| BF

6/4

Bagged a pair of 2m4f Bangor handicaps last summer and has continued in good order, cheekpieces added when fourth of 10 back there last time. One for the shortlist.

Form: 8/11224-

Red Panda^p²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: David Bass| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 91

7/1

Arrives in decent form without winning, cheekpieces on for 1st time when third of 9 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (19f, good) 28 days ago. Up in trip and needs considering.

Form: 3535-33

Captain's Pick¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Adam Wedge| T: Christian Williams| OR: 91

40/1

Got off the mark at Perth last July but well below that form in three subsequent runs, last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good) 18 days ago. Others are preferred.

Form: 5717-P6

Vorderman^p³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Ben Ffrench-Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 95

25/1

Opened his account at Fontwell in December. Pulled up after an early error in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good) 38 days ago so can't be dismissed.

Form: 1662-UP

Hammer Dan^t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR: 85| BF

9/2

Went 2-2 last summer at Newton Abbot and Stratford and resumed from 11 months off with an excellent second of 7 back at Newton Abbot (26.5f, good to soft) 19 days ago, conceding first run. Big shout.

Form: 60P/11-2

Forecasts

Regal And Royal (6/4), Getuptheyard (7/2), Hammer Dan (9/2), Tropical Speed (13/2), Red Panda (7/1), Let Me Go Boys (10/1), Belles Benefit (11/1), Findthetime (20/1), Clondaw Royale (20/1), Vorderman (25/1), Captain's Pick (40/1)

David Pipe's HAMMER DAN returned from a lay-off with an excellent second at Newton Abbot and is weighted to go one better here. Regal And Royal, Let Me Go Boys and Belles Benefit are all in the mix too.
