Winner on heavy ground over 2m5f at Kelso in December 2015 but absent for over 12 months following a heavy defeat at the same track later that month and failed to complete in two starts this year. Plenty to prove at present.
Winner of a point-to-point in Ireland in 2015 and placed twice over hurdles in the spring. Promising effort last time out when third over 2m here when having a subsequent winner back in fifth. Has been dropped 1lb for that run and likely to go well once more.
Point-to-point winner in May and ran well when a 3L fifth at Ayr back in January. Disappointed here in a similar race to this over further but drop in trip should suit and he races off a 3lb lower mark than at Ayr.
Three time point-to-point winner but yet to score in ten outings under rules. Well held in a maiden hurdle at Ayr last time out having finished a well beaten fifth at Down Royal the time before. Claimed third in this race off a 2lb higher mark in 2016 and is another to take note of.
Point-to-point winner in 2015 but well beaten in all starts under rules since including on debut for this yard over hurdles here last month. Chances that chasing will see him in a better light but has a bit to prove here.
Maiden after 11 outings in this sphere. Finished runner-up at Hexham off this mark 12 months ago but pulled up at Kelso subsequently and makes a belated seasonal debut here off an 11 month lay-off.
Failed to complete in three of his last four outings and well held in the other. Pulled up in first time blinkers last time out and well handicapped on his old form (placed off a 13lb higher mark on first run in 16 months in November) but a bit to prove with tongue tie and cheekpieces combination used on debut for new yard.
Shown little in eight outings over hurdles under rules. Wasn't beaten too far in a couple of point-to-points but has plenty to prove going chasing here.
Placed in two of her last three outings over hurdles including when third at Ayr on heavy ground back in January. Yet to win in 12 career outings however and withdrawn from her intended chasing debut at Wetherby last month.
16 race maiden but came within a nose of winning off a 2lb lower mark over 2m4f at Newcastle in January. Has disappointed twice since however and a place looks more likely than a win in a race in which he finished runner-up in in 2016.
Forecasts
Dick Darsie (5/2), Ryalex (9/2), Massini's Lady (5/1), One Cool Clarkson (13/2), Under The Red Sky (17/2), Kanturk Bank (10/1), La Dama De Hierro (16/1), Westend Theatre (22/1), Rhythm Of Sound (33/1), Quest Magic (66/1)
RYALEX ran well when finishing third here last time out and can register his first success under rules here for his trainer who's horses are running well currently (3/12 in recent weeks). Under The Red Sky is a long standing maiden but finished runner-up in this off a 2lb higher mark in 2016 and can fill the same spot again here while Dick Darsie who wasn't beaten far at Ayr in January and Massini's Lady are others worth considering here.
