Larry^t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 116| C

6/4

Won a four-runner novice hurdle at Plumpton (2m4½f, heavy) on latest start. Tongue tie added that day is retained here and having won a bumper at this track, should go well again under a penalty.

Form: 6U4231

Cappaway³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams

100/1

Unseated rider on hurdling debut before a tame effort last time having started at 100/1. Likely to need more time and a move to handicaps. Best watched.

Form: 9F8

Duke Of Kilcorral²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: N D Fehily| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 120

11/8

Has shown improved form lately including when beaten narrowly here (2m3f, heavy) last time when slightly hampered mid-race. A repeat of that effort would put him right in the picture today and positive jockey booking.

Form: 6802U2

Hally's Kitchen⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Mr M Legg⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs F M Shaw

25/1

Well held on all five starts to date including in novice hurdle contests at Exeter the last twice. Probably best watched at present.

Form: 0-9966

Illtellmema²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Jack Sherwood⁽³⁾| T: Miss S Smith

7/2

Point-to-point winner at the fifth time of asking on soft ground in January and ran well to finish 12L second on rules debut here (heavy) last time out. A repeat of that would put her in the mix and likely to improve.

Form: UP-P212

Judge Judy²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Tom Cannon| T: Mrs L Hill

100/1

A long way behind Larry at Plumpton on second start. Having looked awkward at times. Needs to improve significantly on that evidence and hard to fancy today.

Form: P4

Lightly Squeeze^p,h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: R P McLernon| T: P Hide

12/1

Twice a winner on the flat who has had a couple of modest efforts over hurdles so far. Admittedly they were in slightly better races than today. Conditions probably not ideal and handicaps may be the answer further down the line.

Form: 44

Sunset Skye⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: A Glassonbury| T: Mrs L Richards

66/1

Unseated rider at the first at Towcester last week having been sent off at 50/1. Probably best watched for now.

Form: 8U

Forecasts

Duke Of Kilcorral (11/8), Larry (6/4), Illtellmema (7/2), Lightly Squeeze (12/1), Hally's Kitchen (25/1), Sunset Skye (66/1), Cappaway (100/1), Judge Judy (100/1)

Illtellmema could go well getting weight of the principles and shouldn't be discounted. Larry won comfortably at Plumpton last time and comes here with every chance under the penalty. The selection though has to be DUKE OF KILCORRAL who ran well here last time backing up his good effort at Bangor previously and can gain a desevered first success over timber.
