Beaten a neck when finishing runner-up on heavy ground over 3m2f at Warwick in February. Probably flattered by his proximity given the antics of the winner on that occasion and seeking his first victory since October 2014 in this.
Winner of a maiden hurdle at Ludlow on soft ground on his first outing under rules in November. Well beaten since however including on handicap debut at Lingfield last time out. Drops in grade here though yard out of form at present (0/27).
Beaten just 8L when fifth in first time cheekpieces (left off since) over an extended 2m7f here in December. Pulled up on soft ground at Chepstow since and makes his handicap debut here.
Winner off a 4lb lower mark over an extended 2m7f at Fakenham four months ago. Well held when finishing seventh behind an in form rival at Hereford subsequently but interesting if putting that effort behind him.
Finished runner-up at Hereford over an extended 3m1f when making his handicap debut at Hereford last month. Has been raised 2lb for that effort but remains unexposed in this company and likely to run well once more.
Winner of a maiden hurdle at Newton Abbot in March 2016 but well beaten on handicap debut at Taunton in November. Returned from a break when a well beaten sixth at Newbury last month and a bit to prove upped in trip here.
Consistent sort who's yet to finish outside the first four in five career outings. Sent off favourite when beaten 19L over 2m5f at Kempton in February and likely to run well off a 2lb lower mark here.
Ran out early on when last seen in action in a 3m3f handicap hurdler at Sedgefield earlier this week. Latest success came off a 3lb higher mark at that same track but has been out of form of late and likely best watched in this.
Forecasts
Lord Bryan (11/4), One Of Us (3/1), The Wallace Line (10/3), Western Sunrise (7/1), Old Salt (10/1), Pine Warbler (14/1), Shinooki (14/1), Fresh By Nature (18/1)
LORD BRYAN can register his first success at the ninth attempt by claiming this handicap hurdle. The selection finished runner-up when last seen in action at Hereford last month and can get the better of The Wallace Line who also finished runner-up on his latest outing with Shinooki taken to fill the third placing.
- Lord Bryan
- The Wallace Line
- Shinooki
