Nine race maiden has placed on each of his last four starts over hurdles including off this mark over an extended 3m1f at Cartmel (good) in May. One to note on debut over fences.

Broke his maiden when winning by 1L in a 3m handicap hurdle at Newbury (good-to-soft) in March. Raised 4lb for that victory and is one to note switched to fences on seasonal debut.

Unseated on both chase starts last season and finished a well beaten 44L fifth of sixth in a 2m7f handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (good) when last in action back in April. Others make more appeal on return to action.

10/1
Stepped up on handicap debut when finishing runner-up in a 2m5f handicap hurdle at Warwick (soft) in March. Interesting runner stepping up in distance on first start over fences.

9/1
In good form in the spring placing four times including over 2m4f in a novices' handicap chase at Uttoxeter (good-to-soft) in June. Well beaten in two starts since return from a break however and others look more reliable propositions.

12/1
Dual winner including by a neck in a small field 2m5f novice hurdle at Kempton (good) just over 12 months ago. Well beaten on handicap debut at Southwell (3m, good) in May and is probably best watched on debut over fences.

Fortescue197
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-4| J: Hugh Nugent(5)| T: H D Daly| OR:  112
14/1
Decent effort in finishing 9L fourth in a 2m5f maiden hurdle at Warwick (good) in April. Step up in distance looks likely to suit and he is worth a check in the market on chase and handicap debut.

Tractor Fredt253
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-1| J: Page Fuller(3)| T: Jamie Snowden| OR:  109
5/1
Career best effort when finishing 7L third in a 3m1f handicap hurdle at Plumpton (soft) in February. Tongue tie worn for the first time that day is retained on chase and stable debut.
9
Horse silk
Thomas Shelby228
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: Mrs Caroline Bailey| OR:  108| D
17/2
Point-to-point winner at Thorpe Lodge (3m, good) in January and placed twice subsequently in that sphere. Worth a check in the market on his return to fences.

Forecasts

Notachance (7/2), Stop The World (7/2), Tractor Fred (5/1), Thomas Shelby (17/2), Ratoute Yutty (9/1), Eclair De Guye (10/1), Hidden Glen (12/1), Jet Set (12/1), Fortescue (14/1)

Verdict

Top weight STOP THE WORLD ended last season in decent form over hurdles and he can make a winning debut over fences by taking this competitive novices' handicap event. Notachance was a handicap hurdle winner on his most recent outing and he can chase the selection home while third place can go to Eclair De Guye who is tackling this trip for the first time on chase debut.
  1. Stop The World
  2. Notachance
  3. Eclair De Guye
