Rewarding Ownership With The ROA Novices' Hurdle

Off time: 13:51 | Winning time: 4m 0.15s

Multellie⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: T D Easterby

14/1

Returned to hurdles with a 6L victory in a 2m1f novice event at Carlisle (soft) last month. Hails from a decent yard and interesting to see how he fares under a penalty.

Form: 8/1

Proschema²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 128| CD

13/8

Built on a promising third on stable and hurdles debut when winning by 8L over C&D on soft ground at the start of this month. Carries a penalty here and holds strong claims once more.

Form: 31

Ribble Valley¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: N G Richards| D

13/8

Winner of three of his four starts to date most recently by 9L in a 2m event on hurdling debut at Hexham (heavy) earlier this month. Bold show expected on this occasion.

Form: 161-1

Sir Valentine²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| D

4/1

Still held chances when falling on hurdles debut but made amends when victorious over an extended 2m at Newbury (good-to-soft) last time out. Represents a good yard and is of interest in this event.

Form: F1

Castle On A Cloud²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss C R Crane⁽⁷⁾| T: C Grant

100/1

Well held on hurdles debut at Kelso (soft) in January last year and pulled up here at the start of this month on only subsequent start. Probably best watched at present.

Form: 2UP9/P

Get Real⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: C Gethings| T: Henry Oliver

16/1

Placed in a point-to-point over 3m at Loughrea (soft-to-heavy) last month. Likely to prove better over further in time and probably best watched on first start under Rules.

Form: 8-2

Highwayman¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Danny Cook| T: D Thompson

100/1

Held in two starts over 2m1f at Sedgefield this autumn most recently when 25L fifth on soft ground nearly two weeks ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 65

See The City⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: J M Quinlan| T: J M P Eustace

125/1

Faller on hurdles debut at Market Rasen (good) in May and finished well held at Fakenham (2m, good) last month on his only subsequent start. Others hold stronger claims.

Form: F6

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Ryan Mania| T: A M Thomson

25/1

Showed promise when finishing 2¼L second in a 2m bumper at Ayr (good-to-soft) in February. Winner has won over hurdles since and he is an interesting contender on hurdling debut.

Form: 2-

Troop¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Nathan Moscrop⁽³⁾| T: Mrs A Duffield

100/1

Placed on all five AW starts since returning from a break including in first time blinkers (absent here) over 1m at Newcastle nearly three weeks ago. Interesting to see how he fares on first hurdles start.

Form:

50/1

Seven race maiden finished 40L tenth off a mark of 106 in a C&D handicap hurdle on soft ground at the start of this month. More needed if she's to take this event.

Form: 5463-90

Raddle And Hum^h1¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Craig Nichol| T: Micky Hammond

100/1

25/1

Successful twice from 16 starts on the Flat and ran well to finish runner-up over 2m at Catterick (heavy) at the end of last month on her most recent start. Worth a check in the market on hurdling debut.

Forecasts

Ribble Valley (13/8), Proschema (13/8), Sir Valentine (4/1), Multellie (14/1), Get Real (16/1), Rayna's World (25/1), Sirwilliamwallace (25/1), Ibn Al Emarat (25/1), Volunteer (33/1), Ilaya (50/1), Raddle And Hum (100/1), Troop (100/1), Castle On A Cloud (100/1), Highwayman (100/1), See The City (125/1)

PROSCHEMA was a winner here last time out and he can follow up with success in this competitive looking novices event. The selection can get the better of dual bumper winner Ribble Valley who is another seeking a second hurdles victory while third place can go the way of Sir Valentine who registered a victory at Newbury on his latest start.
