Chase/hurdle winner in France. Has disappointed on both British outings, however, so needs to get back on track following a 4-month break.

9/2
Ex-Irish maiden hurdler who produced easily his best effort since joining this yard when 6 lengths second to Tast The Fear at Hexham last time. Should go well again, but not sure to reverse that form.

Nathaniel gelding who didn't show much when last in a novice at Market Rasen 16 days ago. Hard to fancy.

Fair hurdler. Who was a good second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (22.7f, good to soft, 7/4) 18 days ago. Expected to be bang there once again.

Minimal promise in bumpers so far, looking more of a long-term project.

Forecasts

Bellaney Gem (5/4), Taste The Fear (15/8), Tara Mill (9/2), Shentri (17/2), Howzat Hiris (40/1), A Day In Donostia (80/1), Big Stuart (200/1), Amma Lord (200/1)

Verdict

BELLANEY GEM was narrowly denied a first success having been gambled on at Kelso last time but, back in novice company, she's fancied to go one better. Taste The Fear and Tara Mille, who filled the first two places at Hexham recently, look the main dangers.

  1. BELLANEY GEM (IRE)
  2. TASTE THE FEAR (IRE)
  3. TARA MILL (IRE)
