Modest hurdler who has achieved a similar level over fences but could prove vulnerable to less-exposed types returning to this discipline after a break.

Isn't devoid of ability based on bumper exploits so, while he's yet to offer much over hurdles, he could prove a different proposition on better ground with cheekpieces fitted for handicap bow.

Not long with this yard and travelled well for a long way when fourth over C&D last time. Booking of Brian Hughes catches the eye, so he's very much one to note.

12/1
Modest bumper winner who is yet to achieve much over hurdles and, while back up in trip after a break, he requires marked improvement if he's to make an impression now handicapping.

Point winner who hasn't pulled up any trees under Rules but could be suited by the return to this trip after 144 days off.

Poor form in bumpers in Ireland and has made a quiet start over hurdles for new yard. Opening mark looks rather harsh.

Brother to Summerville Boy. Won sole start in Irish points so, while his hurdling efforts have lacked promise, he could do better now handicapping in tongue tie/after wind op.

No real impact in bumpers or over hurdles but there have been glimmers of ability, so not a forlorn hope with 7-lb claimer aboard for handicap debutants.

Fair form on first of 2 starts in bumpers and was showing more than previously over hurdles when unseating at Wetherby 11 days ago.

Well held in bumper/over hurdles, so has a bit to prove even from such a lowly opening mark.

Yet to show much over hurdles, down the field in a handicap at Hexham on latest outing. Up against it again.

Forecasts

Just Got To Get On (7/2), Artic Quest (4/1), The Denholm Bandit (6/1), Court Glory (7/1), Ballydonagh Boy (8/1), Abington Park (8/1), Allthatglistens (12/1), Locallink (14/1), Sputnik (14/1), Cannie Lad (28/1), Orlas' Abbey (33/1), Elusive Red (50/1)

Verdict

COURT GLORY has dropped to a more realistic mark and has the potential to do better back up in trip after a break, so a chance is taken on her in an open race packed with handicap debutants, the most notable of whom being Abington Park. Artic Quest shaped with encouragement last time, so he's also considered.

  1. COURT GLORY (IRE)
  2. ARTIC QUEST (IRE)
  3. ABINGTON PARK
