9/2
Bumper winner in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien and open hurdles account on second outing for this trainer by taking heavy-ground Uttoxeter maiden last month; further step forward needed conceding weight but possible it will happen.

28/1
Hadn't been seen for the best part of three years when returning to action here January. Well beaten and never a factor on both starts and no realistic chance on what he has shown so far.

22/1
Fairly useful on the Flat a while back for Andrew Balding over trips at up to 1m4f; unseated last month on return from 630-day absence when an already beaten 50-1 chance and a lot to prove here. First-time hood on.

€10,000 four-year-old; brother to winners Robinsfirth (bumper/smart 2m-3m4f hurdle/chase), The Rory Story (bumper/2m3f hurdle) and Barrie Burn (2m5f hurdle), half-brother to 2m3f chase/2m4f hurdle winner Glacial Promise; dam unraced.

7/2
Second in Haydock bumper last March and returned from an absence when runner-up to previous winner in Novices' Hurdle at Newcastle in January (2m, soft; 12-1); should be able to go close if building on that fine effort.

Little Rory Mach79
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR:  121| BF
4/6
Landed a big gamble on third h'cap start by winning easily at Market Rasen (2m; soft) in December, though couldn't justify favouritism from new mark at Leicester afterwards. Given a break and in new hands here; has an obvious chance on these terms.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-0| J: Dale Irving(3)| T: R M Smith
250/1
Little to enthuse about in three starts over timber so far; latest on stable debut when pulled up at Musselburgh (2m4f, soft; 100-1) last month. Hard to forecast a leading role.

Temple Guide275
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: C O'Farrell| T: J Walton
125/1
Was beaten 57L in a bumper here last May and failed to produce anything competitive in two novice hurdles afterwards at Hexham (2m4f, good/2m, good to soft); back from an absence with lots of improvement to find.

Allthatglistens212
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-7| J: Alain Cawley| T: D Bourke| D
14/1
Just the lone start for Paul Nicholls in 2018 in a bumper but debuted for this trainer by winning in that sphere at Perth (2m, heavy; 11-1) last August. Off since and that wouldn't rank the strongest of form, so likely must improve going jumping.

Forecasts

Little Rory Mac (4/6), Foxey (7/2), Baboin (9/2), Allthatglistens (14/1), Countermand (22/1), Cockle Bay (28/1), Don't Need To Know (100/1), Temple Guide (125/1), Saltmarket (250/1)

Verdict

Little Rory Mac landed a touch in December at Market Rasen before failing to back that up next time from a higher mark. Having joined Dr Richard Newland since this is a great opportunity receiving 6lb from main market rival Baboin, who also looks capable of improving. However, FOXEY made a pleasing start over timber at Newcastle behind a previous winner taking second spot and could well build on that now to score.
  1. Foxey
