Ar Mest^p1³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 119| D

11/8

Three-time 2m hurdle winner, back in this sphere after an underwhelming 2020-21 campaign (fences/jumpers bumpers). Drops into a seller in new headgear and no surprise to see him go well.

Form: 335522-

Ferrobin^p⁴⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: S Bowen| T: M Young| OR: 118| BF| D

9/4

Successful in one of these at Market Rasen in December. Exited at the third-last when in touch/favourite for a C&D claimer in March and will be a danger to all on these terms granted a clear round.

Form: 21244F-

Malina Ocarina¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Alexander Thorne⁽⁵⁾| T: G Hanmer| OR: 94| D

11/4

Not built on her successful debut for yard in 2m Huntingdon handicap hurdle in February, finding little off the bridle at Stratford 16 days ago. Hard to dismiss dropped to a seller now all the same.

Form: 40/1063-

Staithes^h¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽⁵⁾| T: L Horsfall| OR: 85

12/1

Winning pointer but little impact under Rules and facing 3 proven classier rivals here.

Form: 0/5FPU0-

Forecasts

Ar Mest (11/8), Ferrobin (9/4), Malina Ocarina (11/4), Staithes (12/1)

AR MEST has rather lost his way over fences but there is every chance he's just a better hurdler (in the frame in the 2019 Betfair Hurdle off 7 lb higher). He makes most appeal dropped into a seller and fitted with cheekpieces. Ferrobin could be the danger with a clear round.
