20/1
Three time winner in Ireland but had just one start since finishing fourth at Punchestown (good-to-firm) in October 2014. Well beaten on that occasion and since left Alison Batchelor. Probably best watched on debut for this yard.

3/1
Failed in his bid to complete a hat-trick over fences at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month. Races off his 7lb lower hurdles mark today and an interesting runner today.

16/1
Finished runner-up in a four runner handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (good) in May but regressed since then and well held over C&D last time out. Needs to bounce back if he's to take this.

12/1
Appreciated the drop into selling company when finishing runner-up at Newton Abbot (good-to-soft) last month. Disappointed in a handicap hurdle at Bangor in August and making just his second start for this yard today.

9/4
Put a disappointing effort behind him when winning over C&D last time out. Similar underfoot conditions are forecast today and he is one to note despite an 8lb rise in the weights.

25/1
Likeable veteran and a winner eight times in the past including under today's rider at Huntingdon (good) in May last year. Unraced since finishing fourth at the same course a year ago and probably best watch on his return.

11/2
Successful three times in 19 career starts and returning from a long lay-off when finishing a good fourth over an extended 1m7f here in August. Interesting contender having won off a 4lb higher mark in the past.

Ran some decent races over fences earlier this year including when 8L second over an extended 1m7f here last time out. Races off an 8lb lower mark on her return to hurdles today.

Age: 7|  Weight: 10-5| J: D R Fox| T: D Thompson| OR:  89
16/1
Winner of a handicap chase over an extended 3m2f at Sedgefield (good) back in April. Held in two subsequent starts including when second in a four runner contest at Hexham the following month and contesting her first handicap hurdle today.

Age: 9|  Weight: 10-1| J: P J Brennan| T: P Henderson| OR:  85
8/1
Winner off a 5lb lower mark over an extended 2m5f at Exeter (good) in April and put in some good efforts isnce including when third over 3m2f at Fontwell (good-to-firm) in August. Disappointed since and likely to find this trip on the sharp side.

Forecasts

Zamoyski (9/4), Skilled (3/1), Chilly Miss (11/2), Mount Vesuvius (8/1), Bohemian Rhapsody (12/1), Thankyou Very Much (14/1), Knight's Parade (16/1), Sweet Belle (16/1), Polished Rock (20/1), Occasionally Yours (25/1)

Verdict

ZAMOYSKI returned to form when successful over C&D last time out and with conditions forecast to be similar today he is taken to follow up for trainer Steve Gollings. Skilled completed a double over fences during the summer including off this mark on his penultimate outing and he is taken to claim second today while Chilly Miss can build on a promising effort on her return from a lay-off by claiming third today.
