Red Devil Lads^h,t¹⁵⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: L Heard| T: G Harris| OR: 117| C

16/1

Hasn't been in the best of form over fences but returns from a summer break here on first start for a new yard. 3/6 at this venue and a bold showing would not surprise.

Form: 6109P-P

Zamparelli^p,t¹⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 116

11/4

Back-to-back wins over shorter distances earlier in the year and the handicapper has hit him with an 18lb hike in the weights. On the upgrade, though, and may be able to cope with his higher mark.

Form: 6/5361-1

Misty Mai¹⁸⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: C Gethings| T: D A Rees| OR: 114| C

20/1

Pulled-up when last seen back in April. Goes particularly well when the mud is flying so the more rain the better. Would appreciate a bit further than this on return.

Dr Robin^b¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 113| D

5/1

Form had tailed off but seemed rejuvenated by a return to hurdles at Uttoxeter two weeks ago. Back over fences here and has fitness on his side.

Form: 60R362

West Wizard^t²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: James Best| T: Mrs S Leech| OR: 112| CD

11/4

One time very promising hurdler who never reached the dizzy heights expected. Ran out a comfortable winner on return to action at Market Rasen last time. Up 6lb but still well handicapped on old exploits and should be more to come.

Form: 5438P-1

Ken's Well¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Jack Sherwood⁽³⁾| T: Miss J S Davis| OR: 111

40/1

Hasn't looked particularly well handicapped on two starts in Britain so far. beaten such a long way last time he's very hard to recommend.

Form: 4/2214-7

Sartorial Elegance^b,t²³⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: T Scudamore| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 110

10/1

Sole win over fences came way back in 2016. Not been anywhere near that form since and very hard to fancy despite being dangerously well handicapped.

Form: P77P43-

Hidden Charmer^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: R T Dunne| T: Christian Williams| OR: 109

20/1

best efforts would give him sound claims of going close here but was well held when last seen behind West Wizard at Market Rasen last time and has work to do to reverse that form.

Form: 974-23P

Market Road^t¹⁶³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Isabel Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 109| CD

6/1

Progressed well last year winning twice and there could be more to come this time around. Needs to be cherry ripe on the back of a summer break.

Form: 3114U-4

Casual Cavalier^p²⁰⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: J McGrath| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 105

12/1

Has a pretty good record over fences (3/12) and not on a bad mark on first starts for new yard. Fitness needs to be taken on trust on return from a break.

Form: 23/3247-

Gone Platinum^t³⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Adam Wedge| T: D A Rees| OR: 105| C

16/1

Won off 4lb lower here earlier on in the year but form tailed off somewhat after. Well held on return to action at Worcester last month and should strip fitter but has plenty to find.

Form: 3-14260

Forecasts

Zamparelli (11/4), West Wizard (11/4), Dr Robin (5/1), Market Road (6/1), Sartorial Elegance (10/1), Casual Cavalier (12/1), Gone Platinum (16/1), Red Devil Lads (16/1), Misty Mai (20/1), Hidden Charmer (20/1), Ken's Well (40/1)

Zamperelli was on a large upward curve when last seen back in May. Another 7lb rise to contend with on return to action but he is sure to go well. WEST WIZARD remains on a very good mark after his win at Market Rasen last time and could well follow-up here.
