Useful hurdler but seemingly not the force of old for all he made the frame in a point recently. Returns to Rules with a bit to prove.

9/4
Tricky customer who arrives on a hat-trick having again overcome mistakes to score at Stratford 12 days ago. One to consider.

14/1
Hunter winner back in January 2019 but little promise since, including when well-beaten third at Fakenham last time. Tongue tied for first time.

Had some success in points early in his career but returned from a long absence with a tame display on hunter debut at Warwick 86 days ago. Makes no appeal.

Poor bumper performer in Ireland. Has tasted success in points and was runner-up in that sphere earlier this month, but stiff task awaits here.

6/4
Fairly useful chaser/winning pointer. First run since leaving Warren Greatrex when career best when landing 13-runner hunter chase at Ludlow 57 days ago, forging clear. Difficult to oppose.

3/1
Multiple point winner who left his form in novice hurdles well behind when landing a 4-runner hunter at Exeter 24 days ago. Another step forward would put him right in the mix.

Forecasts

Trio For Rio (6/4), I'm Wiser Now (9/4), Wick Green (3/1), Fixe Le Kap (14/1), Knockaderry Flyer (14/1), Moscow Prices (22/1), Mister Serious (100/1)

Verdict

TRIO FOR RIO made a most impressive start in hunters when forging away at Ludlow a couple of months ago and a performance of similar merit should be enough for him to supplement it. Hat-trick seeker I'm Wiser now is also a player and Wick Green can't be ruled out.

  1. TRIO FOR RIO (IRE)
  2. I'M WISER NOW (IRE)
  3. WICK GREEN
