Emitom²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: W Greatrex

5/2

Unbeaten in two starts in bumpers including on good ground at Ascot at the start of this month. Likely to play a leading role stepping up in distance on hurdling debut.

Form: 1-1

7/2

Landofsmiles¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen

20/1

Placed in a couple of bumpers earlier this year. Failed to build on a promising debut over hurdles when beaten 49L here last time out and others hold stronger claims.

Form: 5323-46

Lisnagar Oscar⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: J McGrath| T: Miss R Curtis

10/3

Point-to-point winner on soft-to-heavy ground in March and ran well when placed third in a 2m bumper at Chepstow (good-to-soft) last month. Step up in distance should suit on hurdling bow.

Form: 1-3

Mick Manhattan¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| C

13/2

Soft ground bumper winner here in April. .Well beaten in a 2m novice hurdle on heavy ground here recently and others make more appeal.

Form: 1-5

Milanstorm²⁵⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

8/1

Followed up a good second on debut with a heavy ground win in a 2m bumper at Warwick in March. Represents a good yard and market support would be notable switched to hurdles.

Form: 21-

Movie Theatre⁵⁷³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Jack Barber

33/1

Point-to-point winner on good ground at Broughshane in April last year. Unraced since and likely best watched on his return from a lengthy absence.

Form: 21/

Speedy Gonzalez¹¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Brendan Powell| T: W R Muir

100/1

Improved on previous form when finishing 5L third in a 2m1f bumper at Newton Abbot (good-to-soft) in July. More needed on his first start over hurdles.

Form: 840-3

Tea Time On Mars²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Sean Houlihan⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs S Gardner

66/1

Good fourth in a 2m bumper at Uttoxeter (good-to-soft) in May last year but failed to build on that in two subsequent starts including on hurdles debut last month. Probably best watched at present.

Form: 40-7

Dancing Grey²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: David Noonan| T: Miss G Haywood

100/1

Placed in a Worcester bumper on good-to-soft ground in August. Struggled on hurdling debut at Chepstow (good) last month and likely to be of more interest once tackling handicaps.

Form: 59340

Faithfulness²⁰⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon

20/1

Impressed in winning a point-to-point on soft-to-heavy ground at Monksgrange in April. Interesting to see how she performs on her debut under Rules.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Emitom (5/2), Lisnagar Oscar (10/3), Hideaway Vic (7/2), Mick Manhattan (13/2), Milanstorm (8/1), Casko D'Airy (12/1), Landofsmiles (20/1), Faithfulness (20/1), Movie Theatre (33/1), Tea Time On Mars (66/1), Speedy Gonzalez (100/1), Dancing Grey (100/1)

EMITOM can maintain his unbeaten record by making a winning hurdling debut in this competitive looking novice event. Milanstorm showed good form in bumpers last season and is taken to claim second for a useful stable while third place can go to Lisnagar Oscar who should appreciate this step up in distance following a good third on his Rules debut last time.
