Linden Lane³³

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Ellis Collier⁽⁵⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 100

28/1

Maiden pointer who made a bright start under Rules, matching pick of his novice form when third on handicap debut at Ffos Las (15.8f) in June. However, lines up here on the back of 2 distinctly lesser efforts and bounce back is now called for.

Form: 35-2338

Getmetothemoon^t³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Chad Bament⁽⁷⁾| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 96

14/1

Resumed winning ways when narrowly taking 6-runner handicap hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f) in February and she looked rusty after 6 months off when down the field at Uttoxeter 33 days ago. No surprise to see her back to form with that under her belt.

Form: F4241-9

Lookforarainbow^t²⁰⁶

Age: 12| Weight: 11-9| J: R T Dunne| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 95

40/1

Very lightly raced in recent years and having doubled his tally in 2m handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter in spring 2023 he never figured on the back of a lengthy absence at Market Rasen in February of this year. Passed over having been on the sidelines again since.

Everest⁸⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: G & J Moore| OR: 90

9/2

Low-mileage mare who showed fair form on first of her 3 starts in bumpers. Posted easily her best effort over hurdles after 6 months off when third on qualifying run in a 19f novice here back in June and she's very much of interest now handicapping with potential for better still.

Form: 27056-3

Papa Barns³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 90

17/2

Long-standing maiden who isn't straightforward and following an encouraging second on stable debut at Worcester (2m) in June, he went backwards from that effort when eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f) 35 days ago. Still, surprise were this yard not able to find the key to him.

Form: 5240-20

Little Venice^h³⁰¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: C O'Farrell| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 88

28/1

Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 12f), opening her account at Beverley (9.9f) in June of last year. Some promise in trio of quick-fire hurdle runs back in the autumn and it will be interesting to see what the market makes of her now handicapping back from 10 months off.

Form: 485-

No More Bolero^p²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: James Owen| OR: 84

15/8

Useful on the Flat in Germany who posted easily his best effort over hurdles when runner-up at Newton Abbot (18.5f) last summer for David Bridgwater. Not been pulling up any trees on the level for this stable but significant if the market spoke in his favour back hurdling in refitted cheekpieces.

Form: 56/8256-

Aquifolia²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Harriet Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 86

25/1

Showed more than previously when runner-up on qualifying run in a Worcester novice in June but never threatened on handicap bow at that track next time and she fared little better when down the field on the Flat at Bath 4 weeks ago. Present mark demands progress back in this sphere.

Form: 8527

Cawthorne Banker^p³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 78| CD

5/2

Lost his way following success over C&D last summer but his mark has plummeted in that time and encouraging he stopped the slide when running on for second behind a thriving sort at Uttoxeter (15.7f) 5 weeks ago. Very interesting if he can use that as a platform to build on.

Form: 80-99P2

Chester Tonik^p,t¹⁷¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: Adam Wedge| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 76

18/1

Modest Flat winner at 10f who was gambled on following 8 weeks off and he showed more than previously under change of tactics when third of 5 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (19.8f) in March. Absent since but interesting if support came for him again.

Form: P/78903-

Ray's The One⁵⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: James Best| T: M Pattinson| OR: 73| CD

20/1

C&D winner who hasn't got his head in front since scoring on the Flat back in 2023 and recent efforts hardly inspiring, well beaten on the back of a breathing operation when seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (18.7f, good) 59 days ago.

Form: P3466-7

Forecasts

No More Bolero (15/8), Cawthorne Banker (5/2), Everest (9/2), Papa Barns (17/2), Getmetothemoon (14/1), Chester Tonik (18/1), Ray's The One (20/1), Aquifolia (25/1), Linden Lane (28/1), Little Venice (28/1), Lookforarainbow (40/1)

EVEREST was unable to justify good support but she still produced easily her most encouraging effort over hurdles when finishing a good third in a 19f novice here back in June. In good hands, it would come as no surprise to see her go on again now handicapping. She earns the vote ahead of Cawthorne Banker who posted a resurgent second at Uttoxeter 5 weeks ago. No More Bolero returned to hurdling and Getmetothemoon complete the dangers.
