6/1
Maiden hurdle winner at this venue in May and has run well in two subsequent outings, latterly despite a slipping saddle. Has her fair share of weight, but is consistent and cannot be ruled out.

7/1
Likes to force the pace and employed those tactics when running well in defeat at Worcester and Uttoxeter in May. Has not been seen since, but likely to be fit enough and gets on well with this claimer.

Isle Of Destinyp27
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-12| J: R Johnson| T: G Elliott| OR:  107
7/2
Placed three times over hurdles in Ireland and makes her handicap debut for powerful trainer/jockey combination. Leading contender and likely to be popular in the betting.

Champagne To Go104
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-10| J: Nathan Moscrop(5)| T: R Menzies| OR:  105
14/1
Has been running well without getting her head in front since joining yard from Kim Bailey. First run since June and is back down to a feasible handicap mark.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-8| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR:  103
9/1
First run for this stable after leaving Ruth Jefferson's yard when beaten a long way at Uttoxeter last month. Needs to find more from 3lb lower mark.

4/1
Clear-cut winner over fences at Worcester last week and reverts to hurdling off a 2lb lower mark. Obvious chance if in the same mood.

25/1
Ran well to be second at Perth in June, but two subsequent visits to that venue have not been so productive. Handicapper is starting to relent, however.
9

Shine Away98
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-9| J: Danny Cook| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR:  90
16/1
Has been off the track since finishing down the field over fences at Cartmel in June. Down 1lb for this return to hurdling, but has questions to answer.
10
Horse silk
Miss Mcilroyp18
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-4| J: Alain Cawley| T: G T Lynch| OR:  85
16/1
Irish challenger who is 0-18 over hurdles. Below form off this mark on last two starts and has to take a step forward to figure.
11

Theatre Actv16
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-2| J: B S Hughes| T: C Grant| OR:  83| D
5/1
Returned from a break to run a solid race at Kelso last month. Down 1lb and has each-way prospects if showing the benefit of that outing.

Age: 8|  Weight: 10-0| J: Thomas Willmott(7)| T: J C Haynes| OR:  63
125/1
Maiden who has been placed only once in 25 starts. Impossible to fancy from 18lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Isle Of Destiny (7/2), Tara Mac (4/1), Theatre Act (5/1), Katy Royal (6/1), Lady Mix (7/1), Hermanus (7/1), Only Orvieto (9/1), Champagne To Go (14/1), Miss Mcilroy (16/1), Shine Away (16/1), Reivers Lodge (25/1), Beyondtheflame (125/1)

Verdict

Katy Royal is a consistent sort who should go well despite top weight, but ISLE OF DESTINY represents a red-hot combination and can score on her handicap debut. Theatre Act ran well last time and can chase her home, while last week's chase winner Tara Mac, Lady Mix and Champagne To Go are not out of it,
  1. Isle Of Destiny
  2. Theatre Act
  3. Katy Royal
