50/1

14 race maiden was beaten 10L in a handicap over an extended 1m on the Flat at Wolverhampton recently. Others make more appeal.

7/1

Best effort in seven starts came when finishing 4L second ina a handicap hurdle over an extended 1m7f at Wincanton (soft) in February. Strong claims on her return from a break.

Kabrit²⁸⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: T J O'Brien| T: A Ralph| OR: 99

11/1

Put a couple of disappointing efforts behind him when finishing third in a 2m handicap hurdle at Ludlow (good) last October. Races off a 1lb higher mark here and is worth a check in the market on his return to action.

18/1

C&D winner was beaten 30L when eighth in a 2m handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (good) on seasonal debut just under a month ago. Probably best watched at present.

11/2

18 race maiden finished a decent third in a handicap hurdle over an extended 2m at Market Rasen (good) on stable debut last month. Notable runner once more.

28/1

Ten race maiden has had wind surgery since finishing 59L fifth in a 2m1f handicap hurdle at Carlisle (heavy) in March. Interesting to see how he performs with a tongue tie worn once in November last year returning.

Form: PU4665-

Sadlermor^t1¹⁶⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 94| DWS

4/1

Bumper winner on good-to-soft ground but has disappointed since switched to hurdles. Likely capable of better on handicap debut with a tongue tie tried (first time) on his first start since wind surgery.

Form: 315/850-

17 race maiden was beaten 31L when ninth in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (good) last month. Market support would be notable having run well at this venue in the past.

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Brendan Powell| T: J & S Best| OR: 90| BF| CD

25/1

Ran well when third over extended 2m at Taunton (good) in January last year. Unraced since and the market is likely to provide the best guide as to expectations on her return from a lengthy absence.

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Ryan Mania| T: A M Thomson| OR: 89

7/1

13 race maiden struggled when beaten 28L over an extended 1m7f in a novice event at Musselburgh (soft) last November. More needed back in a handicap on debut for this yard.

22/1

Maiden after five starts including when 49L last of 11 over 2m in a novices' handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (heavy) in March. Given a break since then and others hold more obvious claims on seasonal debut.

Forecasts

Galardo (11/4), Sadlermor (4/1), Love The Well (11/2), Princess T (7/1), Zamarkhan (7/1), Kabrit (11/1), All Good Things (18/1), Definite Winner (20/1), Arctic Snow (22/1), Milldean Silva (25/1), Alph (28/1), Ishyaboi (33/1), Pinchpoint (50/1), Annajemima (50/1), Big Chip And Pin (66/1), Mi Laddo (100/1)

LOVE THE WELL showed decent enough form in the context of this race when placed at Market Rasen last time out to suggest that he can break his maiden in the concluding handicap hurdle. The selection represents a yard with a 33% strike-rate (3/9) in the last two weeks and he can get the better of Annajemima who is likely to have improved for last months seasonal reappearance. Third place can go the way of Princess T who is making her seasonal debut having placed on her most recent outing.
