Ran well on debut for this yard when beaten 2L over an extended 2m at Stratford (good) in a similar race to this in October. Beaten 32L the following month and returning from a near seven month absence in this.

9/2
Ten time winner on the Flat and ran off a mark of 92 over 7f at Chelmsford when finishing sixth last month. Switch to hurdles isn't the most obvious moved and interesting to see how he fares in this contest.

11/2
Four times a winner on the Flat and ran well when finishing 4½L third of eight at Kempton (good) over 2m last November. Disappointed twice since over hurdles and out of form in two Flat runs last month.
Four times a winner at up to 7f on the Flat and most recent win came at Brighton over 6f on good ground in September 2015. Well held in two previous tries over hurdles including when pulled up over C&D in January 2015.

2/1
Winner on the Flat at Nottingham (soft) over 1m2f in April 2016. Sold, gelded and changed yards since and ran a couple of fair races for this yard over hurdles last month. Beaten 18½L into fourth over an extended 2m at Stratford (good-to-soft) two weeks ago and likely to run well in this.

Twice a winner at around 1m on the Flat but beaten in claiming company the last twice. Unraced since finishing 3L third of five at Chelmsford on the AW over 1m last December and making his hurdling debut today.

Forecasts

Coroberee (2/1), Amalfi Doug (9/4), Basil Berry (9/2), Gannicus (11/2), Ritasun (8/1), Amble Inn (20/1), Great Expectations (40/1)

Verdict

AMALFI DOUG returns from a break here having finished well beaten at Kempton last time. The selection is better judged on his second at Stratford in October last year and a repeat of that effort can see him get the better of Coroberee who finished fourth last time out while Gannicus is another to note on his return to hurdling.
  1. Amalfi Doug
  2. Coroberee
  3. Gannicus
