Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: B S Hughes| T: David Dennis| OR: 137| D

10/1

Placed over 2m5f at Newton Abbot (good) in May. Fair fifth subsequently prior to a 49L defeat at Stratford a month ago. Worth a check in the market.

Form: 410/357

Creevytennant³⁰

Age: 14| Weight: 11-12| J: Lily Pinchin⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 135| D

14/1

Nine time chase winner including three times under this rider. Hunter chase winner over 3m at Perth (good) in May but disappointed in a handicap hunter chase last time. Usually races from the front.

Form: 3124-1P

Allelu Alleluia²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Aidan Coleman| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 128

9/1

Winner on chase debut over an extended 2m3f at Stratford (good) in May. Jumped poorly and hung badly when pulling up over the same C&D subsequently. Interesting if putting that latest effort behind him.

Form: 12/34-1P

Rejaah^t³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Tom Cannon| T: N J Hawke| OR: 124| C

11/4

Listed handicap hurdle winner over an extended 2m4f at Cheltenham (good) in April. Not beaten far despite finishing sixth of nine subsequently and one to note having won over fences in the past.

Form: 12/761-6

Whoshotwho²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 124| BF

7/4

Finished runner-up on three of his four starts since returning from a break. Beaten 1L on chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last time out and likely to run well once more.

Form: 2322-32

Sedgemoor Express^p,t³⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-8| J: T Scudamore| T: Mrs L Hill| OR: 117

4/1

Point-to-point winner over 3m at Fakenham (good) in April. Ran well to finish runner-up over an extended 2m6f in a hunter chase at Stratford (good) subsequently and interesting back in a handicap.

Form: 120/21-2

Cash Again⁹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: R P McLernon| T: B Haslam| OR: 111

20/1

Soft ground winner over an extended 2m3f at Sedgefield in January. Well held twice since however and others hold stronger claims.

Form: 76P137-

Forecasts

Whoshotwho (7/4), Rejaah (11/4), Sedgemoor Express (4/1), Allelu Alleluia (9/1), Roman Flight (10/1), Creevytennant (14/1), Cash Again (20/1)

WHOSHOTWHO has been in good form since returning in the spring and he looks capable of registering a first victory over fences at the second time of asking. The selection has the forecast going in his favour once more and can get the better of Allelu Alleluia who proved a disappointment last time but had looked progressive prior to that. Likely pacesetter Creevytennant can put in another bold show to finish third.
