11/10
Broke his maiden two starts ago when he prevailed over this C&D by 3¼L in a maiden hurdle. Went close to following it up last time here over 2m3f but he had to settle for second of eight runners. Back up in trip. Big player.

11/10
Lightly-raced gelding who won for the first time under Rules on his penultimate start when he was successful at Southwell (2m4½f). He was second of three runners last time at Fontwell (2m5½f). One to consider.

50/1
A two-time winner in point-to-points but is still a maiden after two starts under Rules. He was fourth of six last time at Warwick (2m½f). Stepping up in distance but will need to improve.

9/1
Was successful in a point-to-point on his last start at Ballingarry (3m) in a 12 runner field. This will be his first outing under Rules over a shorter trip than he has featured over. Best to watch for now.

66/1
Still looking for his opening success after 10 runs. His latest appearance came at Worcester (2m4f) where he finished sixth of 14 runners after going off at 20/1. Cheekpieces are on for the first time here. Needs to improve.

Mac Amara162

10/1
Produced her best performance to date last time at Stratford (2m6f) in what was her third start when she came home second of 10 runners. This trip is likely to suit her better. Has each-way claims.
Has yet to score in four starts so far. She moved to the UK earlier this year after switching yards. Her last run was at Worcester (2m) where she was fifth of 10. Cheekpieces are on for the first time. Up in trip so improvement can't be ruled out.

100/1
Has been unable to beat a rival in her three appearances on the track. She was last of five runners at Newton Abbott (2m1f) just three days ago after going off at 80/1. It is very difficult to make a case for her.

Forecasts

Bbold (11/10), Monkey Puzzle (11/10), Len Brennan (11/2), Cronins Hill (9/1), Mac Amara (10/1), Net Love (25/1), Bullsempire (50/1), Troy Dee Knee (66/1), Numberonebeaubow (100/1)

Verdict

BBOLD scored over this C&D two starts back in impressive fashion and he can have more success on his return to this distance. He will need to concede weight to the majority of the field, however, he clearly sets the mark on what he has achieved so far so he should be good enough to do that. Monkey Puzzle is also a winner who should be competitive here on what is just his fifth start under Rules so expect him to go close, while Len Brennan is interesting on his return to hurdles over this shorter trip so include him in your calculations.
