Maiden after five starts and finished a well held third in a couple of novice hurdles earlier this year. Worth a check in the market with a leading conditional booked to ride on handicap debut.

Victorious over 3m1f on good-to-firm ground here in April and ran well to finished 14L second over a similar trip at Fontwell (good) last time out. Others make more appeal over this trip however.

Dual winner over hurdles for this yard during the summer but well beaten in a selling contest at Stratford (good-to-soft) last time out. Interesting to see how he fares today.

Six race maiden and well held on debut for this yard in a maiden hurdle over an extended 2m1f at Fontwell (good) in May. Making his handicap debut today.

Both victories have come at this track including over 2m on soft ground in February. Held in three starts since then most recently over an extended 3m1f here in May.

16/1
Point-to-point winner but disappointed under rules and pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow (good) when last in action back in April. Probably best watched at present.

33/1
Maiden after 11 starts but has put in a couple of fair efforts in handicap hurdles in the past. Others make more appeal in this contest however.

Posh Totty169

9/4
Winner of 14 point-to-points since her most recent outing under rules most recently over 3m at Bratton Down (good) in May. Rookie trainer has made a good start to his career and likely to prove hard to beat despite racing from out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Posh Totty (9/4), Quiz Master (4/1), Sky of Stars (9/2), Be Daring (5/1), Mab Dab (7/1), The Game Is A Foot (10/1), Tara Well (16/1), Walk Of Gleams (33/1)

Verdict

Prolific winning point-to-pointer POSH TOTTY appears to have improved markedly since her last outing under rules back in 2011 and she can register her first victory in this sphere by taking advantage of bottom weight and what looks a lenient handicap mark in this concluding contest. The selection has been ridden positively from the past and with no stamina concerns she can see off Quiz Master who can step up on what he's shown so far on today's handicap debut. Sky of Stars, twice a winner already this year can take third on this occasion.
  1. Posh Totty
  2. Quiz Master
  3. Sky of Stars
