8/1
Placed three times in seven starts to date. Beaten a minimum of 30L in each of his four starts over hurdles to date but likely to prove more competitive now tackling handicaps.

7/2
Successful of a 5lb lower mark in a handicap hurdle over C&D last month. Races off a career high mark today and worth a check in the market with similar underfoot conditions forecast here.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-10| J: Finian O'Toole(5)| T: Micky Hammond| OR:  98
9/4
Successful on handicap debut over an extended 2m3f at Carlisle (good) last week. Unpenalised for that success here and likely to prove hard to beat with a useful 5lb claimer taking the ride once more.

Horse silk
Petite Ganache23
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-4| J: A Nicol| T: N G Richards| OR:  92
20/1
Beaten 32L on good ground on his final outing in novice hurdles at Hexham last month. Likely to fair better now he tackles handicaps and market support would be noteworthy.

Motion To Striket20
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-3| J: B S Hughes| T: Mrs J Stephen| OR:  91
9/1
Winner of a point-to-point in November 2015 and best effort under rules came when finishing 24L fourth in a maiden hurdle at Kelso (good-to-soft) for previous stable in March last year. Cheekpieces worn last time out are absent here.

9/2
Three time Flat winner but yet to score in 25 starts over hurdles. Beaten 6¼L into third off this mark over C&D on good ground last month and others make more appeal for win purposes today.

Age: 10|  Weight: 10-7| J: Harry Reed(7)| T: Mrs L B Normile| OR:  81
22/1
Maiden after 18 rules outings. Pulled up in a C&D handicap on good ground last month and looks likely to struggle in this.

My Valentinop21
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-6| J: R P McLernon| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR:  85
33/1
14 race maiden and only limited signs of ability in recent starts. Beaten 27L here in a 2m handicap hurdle last time out and likely to struggle here.

Age: 9|  Weight: 10-6| J: Grant Cockburn(3)| T: Mrs L B Normile| OR:  80| C
16/1
Winner of three of his 39 hurdles starts including twice over an extended 2m here. Beaten 10½L into fourth over 3m at Musselburgh (good) on his most recent hurdles start in March and comes here on the back of a fifth of six on the Flat at Ayr earlier this month.

Age: 9|  Weight: 10-1| J: Callum Bewley(3)| T: Miss L Harrison| OR:  75
14/1
Maiden after 16 rules starts (14 hurdles). Placed off a 3lb higher mark over an extended 2m7f at Uttoxeter (good) last July but well beaten twice since and returning from over eight months off the track here.

66/1
Victorious in six of his 74 outings over hurdles but out of form of late. Beaten 79L and 62L the last twice and while better ground here should suit it's over two years since his last success. Races from out of the handicap in this.

Forecasts

Onlyfoolsownhorses (9/4), Pretty Miss Mahler (7/2), Ronaldinho (9/2), Katalystic (8/1), Motion To Strike (9/1), Lady Vivona (14/1), Cadore (16/1), Petite Ganache (20/1), Karingo (22/1), My Valentino (33/1), Gentleman James (50/1), King's Chorister (66/1)

Verdict

ONLYFOOLSOWNHORSES can follow up last weeks Carlisle success by taking this competitive looking handicap hurdle. The selection is unpenalised for that success and is taken to get the better of Pretty Miss Mahler who was successful under similar conditions over C&D last month while Cadore can claim third following a spin on the Flat earlier this month.
