12/1
Ex-Godolphin; has done well for the Cartmel handler James Moffatt (3-27 over hurdles); off the track since finishing third to Lucky Robin at Perth (2m, good to soft) last July; should strip fitter for this comeback run.
Made an excellent start to life over hurdles with Oliver Greenall (form figures of 22111 between February & April 2019); returned to the winners enclosure with a decisive Class 5 handicap win on the Flat here (C&D) ten days ago; solid.

6-27 over fences but has generally struggled for form since finishing second to Willie Boy at Wetherby (2m3½f, good to soft) on Boxing Day 2018; cheekpieces are applied; safer to look elsewhere.

4/1
Kicked off the season with a pleasing second at Carlisle (2m4f, soft); bitterly disappointing since (includes a pair of falls); faces a very different test here, but is difficult to fancy on the basis of that recent form.

16/1
Always handy when springing a minor surprise in a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield (2m1f, soft) in December; was comfortably out of his depth in the Scottish County Hurdle (Class 2) at Musselburgh three weeks ago; outside place claims.

12/1
Cost €125,000 (Apr 2017); promising earlier on in his career (bumpers & novice hurdles) but things haven't gone to plan over fences; now appears to be a shadow of his former self; risky, yet couldn't be dismissed as a possible player.

9/2
Seeks an elongated hat-trick following back-to-back wins at Perth and Market Rasen (2m-2m½f, good) in the spring of 2019; probable contender, albeit with race-fitness taken on trust following a 278-day absence.

16/1
Modest on the Flat for Charles Hills (0-5) and has shown little promise in three starts over hurdles for Rebecca Menzies; the faintest of faint hopes are pinned on wind surgery proving beneficial.

Forecasts

Lucky Lover Boy (10/11), Romeo Brown (4/1), Siannes Star (9/2), Senor Lombardy (12/1), Golden Town (12/1), Cool Possibility (16/1), Seaborough (16/1), Oak Vintage (40/1)

Verdict

Siannes Star seeks a hat-trick on his return from a 278-day absence with race-fitness taken solely on trust, while the frustrating (yet perfectly able) Senor Lombardy continues to disappoint for Keith Dalgleish. Therefore, the most obvious alternative is the recent Flat C&D winner LUCKY LOVER BOY who has performed admirably well across both codes (2211194P1) since joining Oliver Greenall for 14,000gns in October 2018.
  1. Lucky Lover Boy
  2. Senor Lombardy
  3. Siannes Star
