Mille Sussurri⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: S Bowen| T: H Fry| OR: 115| BF

8/1

Promise in bumpers/maiden hurdles last term and made winning reappearance/handicap bow at Newton Abbot. Back on the up when second of 13 at Exeter (18.5f) in January. Likely to go well.

Form: 732-142

Miss Jeanne Moon³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁵⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 115

15/2

Low-mileage mare who made a winning return/handicap debut at Fontwell (19f) in November. Matched that when third at Hereford (19.5f) next time but run of good form came to a halt at Chepstow latest.

Form: 2P3-13P

Subway Surf^t¹²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 115

9/1

Dual bumper winner who showed fair form in 3 outings over hurdles last term. Failed to meet expectations on chase debut/return in November and now back hurdling after break. Remains unexposed.

Form: 31/325-5

Young Offender^p1²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 114

22/1

Left hurdling debut form behind when game winner of 2½m novice at Fakenham last winter but has yet to find top form in 4 runs this season. First-time cheekpieces need to have a positive effect.

Form: 32-8P80

Coeur Serein⁹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 113

7/1

Definite promise in novice hurdles early last year and he caught the eye (easy to back) when fourth in a Doncaster novices handicap (19.5f) in December. One to be interested in.

Form: 33732-4

Bobby Bow²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Luca Morgan⁽⁷⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 113

22/1

Lightly-raced winner in points and made a successful start to life over hurdles in ready fashion at Hexham in November. Not in the same form twice since, including a handicap, but still early days.

Form: 41-148

Land Of Winter^t1²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Rae Guest| OR: 112

18/1

Improved to score twice on Flat in October. Promising fourth back hurdling in 2m4f Huntingdon novice in December. Disappointing in Sandown handicap since but he's better than that. Tongue tie added.

Form: 32-46

That's The Badger²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: R Johnson| T: H D Daly| OR: 109

8/1

Improved effort over hurdles when third of 12 on 19f Carlisle handicap debut last month. Open to further improvement and on the shortlist.

Form: 0-7993

Embole^h,t⁶^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 102

9/4

Has refound form with a vengeance in recent weeks winning around 2½m at Wetherby and Southwell (easily). 7 lb penalty may not prevent him completing hat-trick.

Form: 56-2511

Craic Magic¹¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Matt Griffiths| T: Nicky Martin| OR: 108

40/1

Improved display when third of 12 on handicap debut at Market Rasen (20.5f) in November. Perhaps found run coming too soon when well held at Southwell 19 days later and freshened up since.

Form: 730-P30

Just So Cool^p²⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-5| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: M Sheppard| OR: 108| D

16/1

Well backed when landing 12-runner Market Rasen handicap (20.5f) in November. Ran no sort of race at Hereford next time but latest Catterick fourth a step back in right direction.

Form: PP7-184

Shaw's Cross^h²²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Henderson| OR: 106

100/1

Fair winning hurdler but pulled up on return from over a year off last month. Something to prove for now.

Form: 5/8134-P

Mr Mcguiness¹⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 11-2| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Mrs R Gasson| OR: 105

200/1

Last got his head in front back in June 2017 and beaten a long way on both starts this winter. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: U7/64-69

Coral Lad³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: James Davies| T: N J Gifford| OR: 103

80/1

Has hinted at promise in bumpers and novice hurdles but more will be needed to overcome this opening mark.

Form: 6-8350

Woulduadamandeveit²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: Mrs S Gardner| OR: 94

7/1

Useful in bumpers. Yet to get anywhere near that level over hurdles but he probably needed the run after a year off when fifth over 3¼m here last month. Being eased another 2 lb can only help.

Form: 6P/053-5

EMBOLE all of a sudden looks more like the horse he was a couple of years back and is selected to make light of a 7 lb penalty and complete a quick hat-trick. Mille Sussurri, That's The Badger and Coeur Serein are also on the shortlist in a competitive handicap.
