Showed nothing on the Flat and was soon in trouble at Newton Abbot last time. Looks up against it and yard 0-56 over the past five seasons.

A third at Kempton a year ago is his best achievement. Has looked one paced and error prone since. Stable are 7-25 here.

10/1
Point-to-point form does not amount to a great deal and has shown a declining level of ability over his four runs under rules. This is easier than his two previous starts over hurdles.

Finished fourth in a Windsor maiden last July. Faced a stiff task on his hurdling debut and not disgraced. Should improve for that first run in seven months.

Winner on the Flat for Simon Crisford 15 months ago. Drew a blank for David O'Meara and has only shown minor promise in two runs over hurdles. Going and trip look better here. Rider 7-25 for yard.

Forecasts

Cabernet D'Alene (11/10), With Pleasure (15/8), Faction (6/1), Oliver's Island (10/1), Art Looker (33/1)

Verdict

It will take little to win this but there are few in this to enthuse over. Faction was soundly beaten on his hurdling debut but should improve for the run. Oliver's Island and Art Looker appear moderate. Cabernet D'alene has shown enough to be capable of landing this but his last few runs have made him look a lot worse than his official rating indicates. WITH PLEASURE has winning Flat form and should give a better account this evening. This will be the first time he has had the trip and ground he needs over hurdles. The rider has a good record for the yard and that may be enough to make a difference in a race as poor as this.
  1. With Pleasure
  2. Cabernet D'alene
  3. Faction
