6/1

Victorious over 1m4f on the Flat at Chepstow (good-to-soft) last time out. Worth a check in the market having been beaten 4L when fifth at Warwick (2m, good-to-soft) in January on his most recent hurdles outing.

Form: 335-

Burrenbridge Hotel²⁵⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Nathan Brennan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 110| D

40/1

Pulled up on both starts since finishing third in a handicap chase over an extended 2m1f at Bangor (soft) last December. Probably best watched returning to hurdles on first start since January.

Form: 3/473PP-

Global Tour^t⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Max Kendrick| T: F O'Brien| OR: 109| CD

11/2

Successful four times most recently over an extended 2m2f at Newton Abbot (good-to-firm) in July. Held on both starts since and others make more appeal.

Form: 113153

Throckley^t¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Charlie Price⁽³⁾| T: Katy Price| OR: 108| D

16/1

Followed up a maiden hurdle victory at Worcester (2m, good) in August with a 16L third over the same C&D in handicap company a month later. Interesting to see how he fares.

Form: 4P2813

Karakoram¹⁸⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Ben Jones⁽³⁾| T: G Harris| OR: 108

22/1

17 race maiden finished a fair seventh in a 2m handicap hurdle at Chepstow (good-to-soft) in April. Others hold stronger claims on seasonal debut.

Form: 573357-

Our Three Sons^b1⁷⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Page Fuller⁽³⁾| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 107| DWS

10/1

Beaten 57L when last of six over an extended 2m4f at Southwell (good) in July. Had wind surgery since and market support would be notable with blinkers tried for the first time.

Form: 455-576

Mouseinthehouse¹⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Isabel Williams⁽⁶⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 106

9/1

Making his handicap debut when finishing 26L fifth in a 2m4f event at Worcester (good-to-soft) in May. Remains open to improvement and is worth a check in the market on return from a break.

Form: U46-5

All Is Good¹⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Ceris Biddle⁽¹⁰⁾| T: R Dickin| OR: 106| D

33/1

Finished a neck second in a 2m handicap chase on good ground here in April. Tongue tie and cheekpieces (both absent here) for the first time that day retained when finishing well beaten at Southwell (good) subsequently.

Form: 632P2-5

Lazarus^t¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Eddie Edge⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 106| D

33/1

Good second in a handicap over an extended 2m on good-to-firm ground on the Flat at Lingfield in August. Well beaten both subsequent starts in that sphere and is probably best watched at present.

Form: 26256-6

Sauchiehall Street^v1²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Teal| T: Noel Williams| OR: 105

16/1

Decent effort in finishing third in a five runner handicap over an extended 1m5f at Chelmsford last month. Returning from a break that day and is making his handicap debut in this sphere with a visor tried for the first time.

Form: 43

Nefyn Bay^p,t⁴⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 11-6| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 104| D

20/1

Nine time winner ran well to finish 10L second in a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m at Bangor (good) at the end of August. Races off a 1lb lower mark on this occasion and is well handicapped on his old form.

Form: 4P-9092

Tikkinthebox^t¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Bryan Carver⁽⁵⁾| T: J Scott| OR: 102| D

5/1

Registered his fourth victory over fences when successful in a 2m handicap chase at Warwick (good-to-firm) last time out. Notable runner looking for his first hurdles success off a 5lb lower mark in this event.

Form: 4-P3471

Kabrit⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: R Patrick| T: A Ralph| OR: 102

25/1

Best effort in four starts over hurdles so far came when 11L third over an extended 2m at Bangor (good) on his penultimate start. Failed to back that up behind Throckley last time out and interesting to see how he fares on handicap debut.

Form: 4536

Baasha^p,t⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Rex Dingle| T: C J Mann| OR: 98

20/1

Held in three novice/maiden hurdles since joiing this stable earlier this year including when 21L seventh over 2m1f at Sedgefield (good) in August. Useful conditional in the saddle on handicap debut.

Form: 687

Camlad Kingfisher²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Tabitha Worsley| T: S-J Davies| OR: 96| D

12/1

Decent efforts in defeat in three starts since winning by 6L over 2m at Uttoxeter (good) in July. Races off a mark 4lb lower than when 11L fifth at Worcester (2m, good) last month.

Form: 321445

Marju's Quest⁵³

40/1

Habitual front runner finished a well beaten 26L eighth over 2m1f at Market Rasen (good) in a handicap chase on seasonal debut in August. Likely to have improved for the run and better expected on return to hurdles.

Form: 92503-8

Petrucci^t⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Jordan Nailor⁽³⁾| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 93| BF

Forecasts

Tikkinthebox (5/1), Global Tour (11/2), Paddy The Chef (6/1), Petrucci (7/1), Mouseinthehouse (9/1), Our Three Sons (10/1), Camlad Kingfisher (12/1), Court In Matera (12/1), Throckley (16/1), Sauchiehall Street (16/1), Nefyn Bay (20/1), Baasha (20/1), Karakoram (22/1), Kabrit (25/1), Lazarus (33/1), All Is Good (33/1), Marju's Quest (40/1), Burrenbridge Hotel (40/1)

TIKKINTHEBOX was the winner off a higher mark over fences last time out and he can register his first hurdles victory by taking this highly competitive conditional jockeys event. The selection can get the better of top weight Paddy The Chef who has been in good form on the Flat of late while third place can go the way of handicap debutant Sauchiehall Street.
