Building Innovations Tapered Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 16:43 | Winning time: 3m 45.0s

Cabernet D'Alene^p1¹¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Mitchell Bastyan| T: D C O'Brien| OR: 117| D

50/1

Won four times over hurdles for Nick Williams, but first run for current trainer saw him finish a distant last of six at Lingfield in January. Has been given a break and is fitted with cheekpieces for his return to action.

Form: 11P-8U6

Jacbequick^v⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Charlie Hammond| T: D Pipe| OR: 114| D

11/10

Landed a Fakenham handicap hurdle in October and has generally run well since, including when finishing in mid-division on the Flat at Bath last week. Should go well with underfoot conditions likely to suit.

Form: 410424

Tidal Watch¹⁰⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.⁽³⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 112| BF| D

11/8

Three wins is a row last summer, but the handicapper had his say and he finds himself on a much higher mark now. Has run with credit on the Flat on latest outings.

Master Of Speed^b²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: N F Houlihan⁽⁸⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 108| CD

11/1

Led until falling at the sixth on latest start at Fontwell, but previous efforts had been underwhelming. Hard to make a case for, but at least hinted at better before coming to grief last time.

Form: 61/00PF

Global Thrill^p,t¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-11| J: Robert Williams⁽³⁾| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 102| CD

8/1

Newton Abbot winner last summer and is now 2lb lower. Only limited encouragement in recent outings, however, and needs to up his game.

Forecasts

Jacbequick (11/10), Tidal Watch (11/8), So Lonely (6/4), First Quest (15/2), Global Thrill (8/1), Ace Ventura (10/1), King Muro (10/1), Master Of Speed (11/1), Prairie Town (14/1), Cabernet D'Alene (50/1)

A race which revolves around SO LONELY, who has a 7lb penalty to shoulder for his comfortable win at Huntingdon on Monday but is partnered by a promising claimer who takes off 8lb. He will not be much of a price, but it is hard to make a case for anything to beat him if all goes well. First Quest, Tidal Watch and Jacbequick may give him most to do, although Prairie Town is well handicapped if returning to form and Ace Ventura is not overburdened on his handicap debut.
