First win for yard on fifth start since moving from the Paul Fitzsimmons stable, in a Towcester handicap hurdle over 1m7½f on good to firm.

7/1
Justified favouritism at Huntingdon in early June, beaten six rivals by 7L. Disputing lead two out when sent off favourite last time out in a Ffos Las handicap hurdle, but the 7lb extra told with a tired fall at the last over 2m6f. Drop in trip will suit.

Has been competitive on several occasions without winning. Making staedy headway last time out in a Stratford novice hurdle, when not recovering from sixth hurdle mistake, eventually beaten 43L. Could be worth another look in this grade.

Still a maiden and while he finished second at Newton Abbot three starts back he was well beaten on handicap debut at Aintree in May.

Only the two wins for Shane Donohue in Ireland but has ability, and new yard very good at finding improvement in others castoffs, as proved on Wednesday with a five length win, when sent off the 11/8f. No penalty.

Useful on the Flat and went off short prices when switched back to this sphere last year but failed to land a blow, including last time out when tailed off and pulled up at Newton Abbott.

Goes well here, but losing run goes back to March 2013 with a win in a handicap chase over 3m5f on soft ground at Warwick. Not seen since last July.

Forecasts

Theo (4/7), Alexander The Grey (7/1), Pongo Twistleton (7/1), Arty Campbell (9/1), While You Wait (10/1), Sierra Oscar (10/1), Gran Maestro (16/1), Call The Cops (16/1), Sandy Cove (20/1), Sue Be It (25/1), Bally Sands (50/1)

Verdict

A race and distance that is advantageous to those making the running or ridden close to the pace. Bally Sands could take the field along here, with Arty Campbell, and possibly, Pongo Twistleton and Sue Be It, following close up. THEO, a five length winner on Wednesday, when sent off the 11/8f carries no penalty today and is a confident selection, with While You Wait and Pongo Twistlton can fill the places.
