Off time: 17:35 | Winning time: 4m 56.2s

Babochoff¹⁵²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Benjamin Poste| T: M H Tompkins

50/1

Babaodana gelding who made his debut in a bumper at Warwick last December but was a long way down the field. His dam is a 3m hurdle winner but others are preferred here.

Form: 8-

Ballyjim²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Jack Barber

10/1

Broke his maiden in a Point-to-point race last time at his 15th attempt. Debut over Rules today. Has always run consistently well so one to watch here at this level.

Form: 32222-1

Bostonian^t⁴¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: M Goldstein| T: S Lycett

28/1

A maiden on the Flat. Has one run over hurdles which came in November 2014 at Plumpton (2m) where he was tailed off. Needs to improve on second start over obstacles.

Clever As A Fox²⁸⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland

11/8

Ran fairly well in his four bumper starts without success. Making his hurdles debut here in what is his first run for new yard. Each-way claims. Keep an eye out for market support.

Form: 68/34-

Dont Push It Pall⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: David Bass| T: Katy Price

18/1

Kalanisi gelding who was purchased for €5,500 as a foal. Shown very little in his three outings in Irish Point-to-points this season. Others preferred.

Form: P44-

Dubai Outlaw⁵¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: D J Jeffreys

33/1

Has gone off at 100/1 on all three of his starts under Rules and his performances have reflected those odds. Very difficult to make a case for.

Form: PP2/000-

I'm Wiser Now¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien

11/4

Ran well in his three bumper starts where he was third in all of them. Unseated his rider on his hurdles debut last time at Perth at the second obstacle. If he can get over the first few hurdles, he could be in the mix.

Form: 333-U

Simon The Great^h²⁷⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: Paul George| C

16/1

Won his bumper here last August where he was a 50/1 surprise winner. Has not been seen since then. This is his first attempt at hurdles and others are preferred.

Form: 0561-

Speedy Gonzalez²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Brendan Powell| T: W R Muir

20/1

A long way down the field in his two hurdles starts so far in his career. Was third in a bumper at Newton Abbot last July. Needs to find a lot of improvement over obstacles to be in the frame.

Form: 840/38-4

Gotaloton¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: C Brace⁽⁵⁾| T: D Brace

66/1

Made his rules debut at Warwick last time over 2m3f where he could only finish 6th of the eight runners. Was fourth on his Irish Point-to-point debut back in April but has not shown enough so far to suggest he could win a race like this.

Form: 4-U6

Witchdoctor¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Jack Tudor⁽⁷⁾| T: D Brace

40/1

Has unseated his jockey on his last two stars in Irish Point-to-points. Connections will be hoping UK debut will help him improve but needs to settle better to get around the course.

Form: 9U-U

Late Again^p1³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: K J Brouder⁽⁵⁾| T: C Byrnes| BF

7/2

Was third in a hurdles contest at Limerick two starts back over 2m3f. He then went off as the 5/4 favourite to win a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield but fell at the third fence. Worth giving another chance as he clearly has talent.

Form: 84F53F-

Viking Ruby¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland

28/1

Has shown very little in his four career starts so far. Was third of three runners at Kempton over 2m5f on his latest outing. Needs to improve a lot to be competitive.

Form: 6/0P-3

Forecasts

Clever As A Fox (11/8), I'm Wiser Now (11/4), Late Again (7/2), Ballyjim (10/1), Simon The Great (16/1), Dont Push It Pall (18/1), Speedy Gonzalez (20/1), Viking Ruby (28/1), Bostonian (28/1), Dubai Outlaw (33/1), Moonlight Camp (33/1), Witchdoctor (40/1), Babochoff (50/1), Gotaloton (66/1)

Although she was a faller at Sedgefield last time out, LATE AGAIN has shown the most promise of all of these runners so far. She should be forgiven for the mistake on her last start as this looks a great chance for her to break her maiden in this contest. I'm Wiser Now has some good bumper form and if he can just transfer some of that to hurdles, he is good enough to get into the placings, while Clever As A Fox is an interesting one of his hurdles debut.
