Janus^p²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Archie Bellamy| T: M F Harris| OR: 105

8/1

Third in C&D maiden last month but couldn't reproduce that form when switched to handicap company back here last time.

Form: P0/435

Majestic Merlin²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Jack Martin⁽⁵⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 102

6/1

Has shown clear signs of promise in 3 novice hurdles at Newton Abbot this autumn and appeals as the sort to go on to better things in handicaps for his good stable.

Form: P-744

Elios D'Or^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Joe Anderson⁽³⁾| T: R Walford| OR: 93

33/1

Musselburgh bumper winner for Nicky Richards. No show in maiden/novice hurdles for this yard but wouldn't be a shock to see him fare better in handicaps.

Form: 5/1P-7P7

Rowley Park⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Kieren Buckley| T: Miss L Blackford| OR: 93

16/1

Runner-up on C&D handicap debut in May 2019 but not seen again until finishing down the field at Exeter last month. Needs to have come on a lot.

Form: 6566/2-9

Gates Pass^h,t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Ben Hicks| T: B Barr| OR: 85

14/1

Maiden on Flat and over hurdles. Underperformed at Hereford last time but each-way claims if recapturing the form he showed when placed at Newton Abbot at the beginning of September.

Form: 090-366

Sehayli^t⁹^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: K Brogan| T: J Farrelly| OR: 77

10/11

One-time fair Flat performer. First worthwhile form over hurdles when taking 12-runner 2m Hereford handicap 9 days ago. Had bit in hand (idled) so ought to make bold bid under his 7lb penalty.

Form: 6/6P8-91

Johni Boxit^p⁵⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-3| J: Kai Lenihan⁽³⁾| T: B Barr| OR: 82

25/1

In fair form on the Flat of late but has yet to threaten in 6 attempts over hurdles, finishing a remote fourth in Warwick handicap last time.

Form: 969/06-4

Raving Bonkers^t⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 82

5/1

Lost way for Martin Keighley but back on track at the first time of asking for new yard when making successful chase debut in Ludlow novice handicap a week ago. Same mark back hurdling. Player.

Form: 6-P4U01

Test Ride³³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Mr Nathan Brennan⁽³⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 80

28/1

Down the field in bumpers and similar story over hurdles, his reappearance fifth in a Stratford seller not amounting to much.

Form: 8079/P-5

Ritas Legacy²²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Ellis Collier⁽⁵⁾| T: L Hurley| OR: 64

Poor maiden on Flat for Roy Brotherton and has offered nothing in 4 starts over hurdles for new yard. Handicap debut.

Forecasts

Sehayli (10/11), Raving Bonkers (5/1), Majestic Merlin (6/1), Janus (8/1), Gates Pass (14/1), Rowley Park (16/1), Johni Boxit (25/1), Sticky Situation (25/1), Test Ride (28/1), Elios D'Or (33/1), Military Dress (33/1), Ritas Legacy (200/1)

SEHAYLI had a bit up his sleeve at Hereford last week and is taken to make light of a 7 lb penalty under a rider who has been seen to good effect in recent weeks. Raving Bonkers goes off the same mark as when scoring over fences for new trainer Oliver Greenall last week so rates an obvious danger. Majestic Merlin appeals as the sort who could have more to offer in handicaps and is also respected.
