Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Alex Chadwick⁽³⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 110| BF| D

7/2

Displayed a willing attitude when adding to his tally over fences at Worcester in July. Not far off that level when fourth back there a month later and while he's lower in the weights over hurdles, that does look justified.

Form: 6-23414

Kiss My Face^v²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Joe Anderson⁽³⁾| T: A Ralph| OR: 106

14/1

Went with no encouragement on May's return to the track but fitted with usual visor, he did show a bit more from 7 lb out of the weights when fifth at Cartmel in August. Back on correct mark.

Form: 242P-85

Ri Na Cuirte^b1¹²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Ben Jones| T: Ben Clarke| OR: 104| D

16/5

Well backed and much improved after 6 months off when narrowly landing a 3¼m Fontwell handicap in November. Back on track with a trio of runner-up efforts fitted with cheekpieces in the spring and he's a danger to all if returning at that level.

Form: 39722-2

Solo Flight^t,v1²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Ben Godfrey| T: H Brown| OR: 103

80/1

Fair form at best over hurdles but wasn't able to match that level in 3 starts over fences in July for John McConnell and no surprise he's bac over timber on the back of a heavy defeat in stable debut at Fontwell. Visor also on for the first time.

Form: 20-963P

Belles Benefit^b¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Bannister| T: B I Case| OR: 103

7/1

Consistent stayer at this sort of level and in a change of headgear, she made the most of a good opportunity at Stratford 17 days ago. Clearly in form but 7 lb rise may prevent the follow up.

Form: 54-6331

Prince De Juilley^b¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: C Gethings| T: A Ralph| OR: 100| CD

7/2

Dropped in the weights and confirmed the promise of his Market Rasen run (in change of headgear) when second of 12 at Uttoxeter (23.3f)12 days ago, keeping on well. Has to be taken very seriously.

Form: 4-47872

Jack's Jury^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: S Bowen| T: Mrs A M Thorpe| OR: 94| BF

11/4

Yet to win a race but quickly back on his game returned to 26.5f when third of 6 at Newton Abbot. Likely to be plugging away with Bowen on again.

Form: 6-23353

Forecasts

Jack's Jury (11/4), Ri Na Cuirte (16/5), My Gift To You (7/2), Prince De Juilley (7/2), Belles Benefit (7/1), Kiss My Face (14/1), Solo Flight (80/1)

PRINCE DE JUILLEY came up just short in a driving finish at Uttoxeter 12 days ago and though up 3 lb, that still places him on his last winning mark. He can gain compensation, possibly at the chief expense of Ri Na Cuirte on his return to action. Jack's Jury doesn't do anything quickly but has the right man in the saddle for the task.
