Off time: 20:00 | Winning time: 4m 0.20s

Make It Happen^p,t³⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Cameron Wadge⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 100

9/1

Found life a little tougher off this higher mark since winning at Kelso (2m2f, heavy) in April. Interesting that he drops in trip here and likely to make a bold bid to make all.

Form: 2U71-U7

Shackles¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny McMenamin⁽⁷⁾| T: N G Richards| OR: 102

28/1

Has made minor progress in all three starts over hurdles so far. Best effort came over this C&D last time. Makes handicap debut here off a fair mark and should show some improvement now.

Form: 065

Hey Listen^p²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Miss Alisa McClung⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 99

10/1

0-10 under rules. Beaten just ½L here over C&D (soft) in April, when 5lb lower. Lost action over C&D last time and needs to bounce back to that previous effort to be considered.

Form: P042-4P

Sense Of Urgency^h¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Tommie M O'Brien| T: Mrs L B Normile| OR: 96| BF| D

7/1

Won off career low mark at Hexham (2m, good) last month. Very disappointing when a well backed favourite over this C&D last time and needs to bounce back quickly.

Form: 240-413

Great Colaci⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr James King| T: G Boanas| OR: 95

6/4

Lightly raced over hurdles and just has the one win to his name in this sphere off a 6lb lower mark. Been in good form though of late having gone close here last month he has since run well on the flat. Sound claims once more.

Form: 8F7-192

Make My Heart Fly^t³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr J C Barry| T: G Elliott| OR: 93

15/8

Well down the field in four handicap hurdle starts to date including a 27L defeat in a Gowran Park contest last month over 2m. Market likely to be informative.

Form: 82/00-50

Rioja Day^b⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Corey Madden⁽⁷⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 71

25/1

0-17 over hurdles and not seen in this sphere for almost a year and a half. Not been in the best of form on the flat lately and others have stronger claims.

Form: 446U55/

Non-Runners

Strong Team²⁶

Forecasts

Great Colaci (6/4), Make My Heart Fly (15/8), Strong Team (2/1), Sense Of Urgency (7/1), Make It Happen (9/1), Hey Listen (10/1), Rioja Day (25/1), Shackles (28/1)

Any market move for Make My Heart Fly should be noted. Strong Team won well here last time and has sound claims of going close again under a penalty. A chance is taken that we will see some preogress from SHACKLES now he moves into a handicap for the first time.
