5/2
Likeable type on the Flat and his two hurdling outings to date haven't got to the bottom of him, a considerately-handled fourth in a novice at this course last time. Solid claims despite drop in trip.

Fair form over hurdles to date, back on track when third in a handicap at Plumpton 9 months ago. Needs a bit more to defy this mark, though.

Bettered his modest Flat form over hurdles last winter, runner-up in a novice at Wincanton on penultimate start. Handicapper as taken no chances with opening mark though, and may need this return.

Placed in bumpers last season and, following a 9-month break/breathing operation, left previous hurdling efforts behind when an encouraging third in a good novice at Uttoxeter. One to note.

Winner of 2 of his 3 starts in bumpers and produced best effort over hurdles to date when second in 2m handicap at Uttoxeter last time. Should be thereabouts once again.

20/1
Improved on previous efforts when fourth in an 11-runner event at Ludlow on handicap hurdle bow 8 months ago. Needs another step forward on return, though, and drop in trip might not suit.

18/1
Modest maiden on Flat who has run to a similar level a couple of times over hurdles. Down the field on handicap debut at Hereford last time, however.

Modest maiden hurdler/chaser. Creditable third over the smaller obstacles at Plumpton when last seen in March but others preferred for win purposes again on return.

Forecasts

Mount Windsor (11/8), Imphal (5/2), Rufio (4/1), Darkest Day (16/1), Highway One (18/1), Samtara (20/1), O'Rahilly (20/1), Finisher (33/1)

Verdict

RUFIO shaped as if he'd come on for his Uttoxeter reappearance, form which has been boosted by the winner and runner-up since, and the lightly-raced 6-y-o can take a step forward to make a winning handicap debut. Imphal looks well treated based on his Flat exploits and Mount Windsor arrives on the back of an improved showing, so they're both respected.

  1. RUFIO
  2. IMPHAL
  3. MOUNT WINDSOR (IRE)
