Horse silk
Abbreviate158
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR:  129
8/1
Formerly a useful hurdler who has just the one win to his name and that came back in 2015 on his third hurdles start. Has run some creditable races since but was below form last time and goes chasing for the first time.

Horse silk
Braavos26
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White
4/1
Very headstrong but capable hurdler who benefitted from a positive ride when taking a Southwell handicap last time (career best). Bred to make a chaser and now tries fences for the first time and looks sure to go well in this sphere.

Horse silk
Sam Redt151
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR:  132| BF
7/2
Only one win to his name despite looking to be the best of these on ratings over hurdles. He jumped soundly on his chasing debut without looking outstanding but may fare better off a break.
4
Horse silk
Some Are Lucky170
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: Adrian Heskin| T: T R George| OR:  130
11/4
The most experienced of these over fences showing some solid enough form and he ran well fresh last season. Those runs may well stand him in good stead here and his trainer has a good record in this sphere.
5
Horse silk
Valhallat156
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-12| J: Aidan Coleman| T: C L Tizzard| OR:  132| D
5/2
Only had one start in this sphere and that was a below par effort but far too early to write him off in this sphere. Type to make a chaser and worth another chance given his hurdles rating.

Forecasts

Valhalla (5/2), Some Are Lucky (11/4), Sam Red (7/2), Braavos (4/1), Abbreviate (8/1)

Verdict

Not hard to make a case for any of this quintet in what looks to be a good contest for the time of year. Abbreviate could well show more in this sphere and Sam Red has looked a winner in waiting ever since he joined this yard and he’s expected to improve on his debut. Valhalla is another of the same ilk with Braavos and exciting chase debutantes. SOME ARE LUCKY could well his experience to good use here he travels well in his races and is worth a shot here to get off the mark over fences at the fourth attempt.
  1. Some Are Lucky
  2. Braavos
  3. Sam Red
