4/1
Fair and progressive handicap hurdle. Below that level in a couple of chase starts around 2m but possible she'll fare better now stepping back up in trip (best hurdle form around 2½m).

Fair chaser at his best for Robin Dickin. Operating below that level last season but potentially very well treated on first start for Olly Murphy. Market confidence likely significant.

Last win came in 2015 and struggled over fences for Roy Brotheton in 2019. Pulled up in a point for Ryan Potter in March. Plenty to prove.

Bumper winner in May 2016. Very lightly raced since and though he did win over hurdles, it was a very modest handicap. Off 12 months, distant fourth of 5 on Uttoxeter chase debut 17 days ago.

On a career-low mark but doesn't find winning easy and was in the process of running below form when falling 4 out on Newton Abbot reappearance.

5/2
Resumed winning ways after 7 months off in 10-runner Southwell handicap last month. Just as good when second to a well-treated rival back there since. Ought to be in shake-up again.

Forecasts

Vocaliser (11/8), Grand Coureur (5/2), Do You Know What (4/1), Barton Rose (15/2), Captain Speaking (8/1), American Craftsman (14/1), Kalaskadesemilley (14/1), Stand By Me (16/1), The Artful Roger (33/1), Full Shift (40/1)

Verdict

VOCALISER was rated in the 120s a couple of years back so looks dangerously well handicapped on this first run for Olly Murphy. Do You Know What could fare better over fences now stepping back up to 2½m and can provide the main threat ahead of Grand Coureur.

  1. VOCALISER (IRE)
  2. DO YOU KNOW WHAT (IRE)
  3. GRAND COUREUR (FR)
