7/1

Landed Cheltenham handicap (26f) for the second time in April and ran to similar level, in first-time blinkers, when creditable sixth of 15 in handicap chase over C&D (good) 28 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Ought to go well again.

Form: 3P551-6

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: J J Burke| T: F O'Brien| OR: 134

9/1

Much improved sent chasing in 2023/24, completing hat-trick in a handicap at Kelso. Lightly raced last season but better than ever, back from a break, when resuming winning ways in easy fashion at Kempton (24f) in April and only 4 lb higher here.

Form: 3P/2571-

Shanagh Bob^p,t⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: David Noonan| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 127

22/1

Grade 2 winner as a novice over hurdles, but generally well below that level during 2024/25 campaign. Bettered previous chase efforts when opening his account in this sphere at Ludlow in May and ran creditably on debut for new yard at Newton Abbot since. Others look better treated, though.

Form: 2500-13

Lord Accord^p,t²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: R P McLernon| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 125| C

11/1

A fairly useful hurdles/chase winner last autumn but has been well below his best the last twice, latest here last month. Bit to prove now.

Form: 1123P-0

Art Of Diplomacy^p¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Shane Fenelon⁽⁵⁾| T: M Bowen| OR: 125| CD

11/2

Scored 3 times over hurdles for Dr Richard Newland and off the mark in this sphere for new yard at Newton Abbot (25.8f) last month. Had plenty in hand when following up over C&D (good) 19 days ago and looks a big player, despite a 10 lb rise since.

Form: 334-211

Olivers Travels^b²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: S Bowen| T: M Bowen| OR: 124

5/2

Back on track, in first-time blinkers, when good fourth of 15 in handicap chase over C&D (good) 28 days ago. 2 lb lower now and warrants respect.

Form: 4P22-74

Village Master^p²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: James Bowen| T: W Greatrex| OR: 122| D

6/1

Added to his superb strike rate over fences when taking 8-runner handicap chase (5/2) at Worcester (23f, good) 25 days ago. Takes on much better rivals now but is not taken lightly.

Form: 1P41-11

Wasdell Dundalk¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-10| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 119| BF

14/1

Goes particularly well at Perth and posted another creditable effort at that venue when runner-up a fortnight ago. Remains feasibly treated but others appeal more.

Form: PP2-822

Ashtown Lad^p²⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 10-8| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: D O'Meara| OR: 117| C| D

50/1

Won the 2022 Becher Chase for Dan Skelton but below par since and has offered little in a couple of outings for current yard.

Form: PP7/3-5P

Harrys Hope⁵²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling| OR: 113| BF

11/2

Improving mare who gained a fourth chase victory at Warwick (24f) last month and narrowly failed in her follow-up bid at this course 24 hours later, leading last but not seeming to find much off the bridle. Finds herself in deeper waters now but remains on a workable mark.

Form: 12P-212

Forecasts

Olivers Travels (5/2), Art Of Diplomacy (11/2), Harrys Hope (11/2), Village Master (6/1), Manothepeople (7/1), Pimlico Point (8/1), Young Buster (9/1), Lord Accord (11/1), Wasdell Dundalk (14/1), Shanagh Bob (22/1), Ashtown Lad (50/1)

ART OF DIPLOMACY barely came off the bridle when scoring over C&D earlier this month and may be able to follow up. Young Buster and Village Master are feared most in what looks a cracking contest.
