Off time: 14:35 | Winning time: 5m 3.40s

Mason Jar⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 121| D

10/11

Has won 3-4 over timber in novice company at up to 2m5f after joining Richard Newland this summer; including at Ascot last weekend by 7L. More on his plate but clearly progressing and much-respected as he escapes a penalty.

Form: 37-2111

Bonza Girl^t1²⁰⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Rex Dingle⁽⁵⁾| T: J Scott| OR: 120| CD

13/2

Achieved a five-timer over hurdles last season before coming up shy in pair of Listed novice contests at Doncaster and Cheltenham in the spring. Tongue-tied on return and could have more progress in her.

Form: 111136-

Now Look At Me¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Adrian Heskin| T: T R George| OR: 118| BF

11/4

Won a Uttoxeter maiden in May on hurdles bow and just denied on return at Wincanton recently from opening mark of 118; first time racing beyond 2m now and looks likely he'll stay.

Form: 121-142

Ramore Will³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 116| C

33/1

Four wins over hurdles since joining this trainer in summer of 2017; most recently scoring at Plumpton (2m4½f, good; 9-1). Acquitted himself well here over 3m1f on seasonal return and ought to be suited now going back down in distance.

Form: 11/55-12

Shaw's Cross^h²⁶⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: James Best| T: P Henderson| OR: 106

40/1

Consistent in five runs last season after joining this trainer, winning over 2m at Sandown (soft) in December; with January's Lingfield bagel down to rider failing to weigh in. Possibly going to come on for the reappearance on past endeavours.

Form: 8212D5-

Twenty Twenty¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 106| C

16/1

Course regular, with two wins at 2m1½f on his CV, stayed on after being outpaced over C&D last month on second start back; taking moderate third in the end. More needed to build on that placing.

Form: 441-393

Paseo¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-10| J: L P Aspell| T: O Sherwood| OR: 122| BF

10/1

Placed in couple of 2m juvenile hurdles at Huntingdon and Kempton last month after joining this trainer, he's the youngster in this line-up and more on his plate now but could be open to progress upped in journey.

Form: 32

Mazalto¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: N F Houlihan⁽⁷⁾| T: P Phelan| OR: 103| C

16/1

Winner of a Class 5 handicap over 2m1½f (soft) here last season, acquitted himself well on seasonal bow to take rallying fourth over C&D last month. May be sharper now and will harbour place claims at least.

Form: 5/9123-4

Mister Murchan¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: J J Burke| T: R Rowe| OR: 98

66/1

Irish point-to-point winner, finished well behind Mason Jar at Kempton last month (2m5f, good) on second start over timber. Claims of being fitter now but will need to sharpen up his jumping.

Form: 3P15-24

Forecasts

Mason Jar (10/11), Now Look At Me (11/4), Bonza Girl (13/2), Paseo (10/1), Twenty Twenty (16/1), Mazalto (16/1), Ramore Will (33/1), Shaw's Cross (40/1), Mister Murchan (66/1)

Dr Richard Newland is making a fine job of MASON JAR and, with no penalty for last week's success at Ascot; his third win in four for the yard, he is fancied to strike once more while the iron is hot. Likewise, Wincanton second Now Look At Me seems to be on a lenient mark going into handicaps and should have something to say. Paseo is a potential improver up in trip, with previous course winner Mazalto sharper for his reappearance and considered for the minors.
