Grey Spirit^t³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: R Johnson| T: O Murphy| OR: 119| D

4/5

Left his previous hurdles efforts well behind fitted with a tongue tie when winning 2m novice at Stratford last month, finishing much stronger. Obvious chance again if the headgear continues to work.

Form: 631

Foylesideview²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Jordan Nailor⁽⁵⁾| T: H Chisman

250/1

Poor Flat maiden in younger days and showed nothing back from 41 months off on hurdles debut at Southwell.

Form: P

Hawridge Storm²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: David Noonan| T: B R Millman

4/1

Fairly useful but temperamental maiden up to 1m on the Flat, took well to hurdling when second at Newton Abbot over further 3 weeks ago, running on. This is a shade tougher.

Form: 2

Mawlood^t²⁹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Kielan Woods| T: P W MiddletonWS

33/1

Modest form in bumpers, shaping like a non-stayer tried beyond 13f. Tricky to fancy on hurdles bow after 9 months off/wind op.

Form: 288-

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Christian Williams

80/1

Easy to back and not knocked about on bumper debut at Uttoxeter 3 weeks ago.

14/1

Modest form in bumpers, showing a fair bit more when third on return at Southwell fitted with a tongue tie, weakening over 1f out. Goes hurdling now.

Form: 0-3

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: T J O'Brien| T: M Roberts

16/1

Bumper winner who was fancied for her hurdles bow at Huntingdon in April 2019 but failed to meet market expectations.

Form: 36134/

Eyren³⁶⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton

3/1

Made winning bumper debut at Doncaster in March 2019 before struggling in the Nickel Coin at Aintree. Looked badly in need of the experience on hurdles bow when last seen a year ago.

Form: 10/4-

Forecasts

Grey Spirit (4/5), Diamond River (6/4), Eyren (3/1), Hawridge Storm (4/1), San Agustin (7/1), Talk Of Fame (14/1), Conchita (16/1), Temur Khan (28/1), Mawlood (33/1), The Furrows End (66/1), Ocean's Dream (80/1), Foylesideview (250/1)

DIAMOND RIVER made all in good style in a Uttoxeter bumper on his return last month and should be well clued up for his first crack hurdling. He has the scope to do well over obstacles and gets the vote over Stratford-winner Grey Spirit.
