Chasamax³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson| OR: 118

7/2

Fairly useful hurdler who was back on his game under a positive ride when runner-up at Huntingdon last time, travelling best. Unproven over this far, but still warrants respect.

Form: 234782

Neff^v¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 117| D

9/1

Fairly useful hurdler who seemed to need the run when only fourth of 6 at Plumpton 11 days ago. On a fair mark, so could get involved if back on his game.

Form: 0-73634

Jaisalmer^t⁶⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: M Bradstock| OR: 113| C

13/2

Scored at this course from a 1lb higher mark last year and latest fourth here was respectable, so not discounted back from a couple of months off.

Form: 515-654

Rabski^h²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Philip Armson⁽⁷⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 111

10/3

Bumper winner who produced comfortably his best effort over hurdles when runner-up in novice at Haydock 29 days ago. Open to further progress now switched to handicaps.

Form: 16872

Frau Georgia^p,t²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 110

17/2

Winner at Perth in September and resumed progress in first-time cheekpieces when runner-up the following month. Has disappointed since, though.

Form: 1324PP

The Knot Is Tied²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Bryony Frost| T: N B King| OR: 109| BF| D

11/4

Down the weights and has stopped the slide recently, unable to sustain his effort when a respectable fifth at Wincanton last time. Return to forcing tactics could suit.

Form: P5-8925

Twycross Warrior⁴¹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: J M Quinlan| T: R Dickin| OR: 96

20/1

Modest and consistent hurdler last term but needs to return from a long absence at least as good as ever if he's to land this.

Form: 134242-

Forecasts

The Knot Is Tied (11/4), Rabski (10/3), Chasamax (7/2), Blazing Saddles (4/1), Your Darling (9/2), Jaisalmer (13/2), Frau Georgia (17/2), Neff (9/1), Twycross Warrior (20/1)

RABSKI stepped forward when narrowly beaten at Haydock last time and he has scope for further progress based on bumper form, so he's a confident selection to open his account over hurdles back up in trip. Chasamax is a big threat if he stays and last-time-out winner Blazing Saddles (engaged Taunton Wednesday) can't be discounted.
