Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: S Bowen| T: H Fry| OR: 130

Lightly raced since scoring twice in 2019 and finished down the field on return from 6-month absence at Uttoxeter in March.

Dolciano Dici^p,t²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Miss H C Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: B Barr| OR: 129

20/1

Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs but offered more for this yard when fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (24f, good) 26 days ago. Claims if building on that. Cheekpieces back on.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 128| D

9/2

Made a successful hurdles bow at Exeter in November before following up at Doncaster later that month. Too free when pulling up in Grade 2 company latest but remains low-mileage. Makes handicap bow.

Form: 135/11P-

Poker Play⁵⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Fergus Gillard⁽⁵⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 127| CWS

7/1

Landed novice chase here back in 2019. Placed twice in handicap hurdles last season but below form when remote fourth at Warwick when last seen in March. Had wind operation.

Morning Spirit⁵⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 126| D

4/1

Improved form to get off mark at the fifth time of asking in handicaps at Ascot in December. Not really built on that, however, and others preferred.

Spectator^t¹⁹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-6| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 124| D

33/1

Came back from lengthy absence to take 15-runner handicap hurdle at Chepstow (23.6f, good to soft, 22/1) in October. Off again since but can't be ruled out on return off a fair mark.

Form: 52722/1-

Imperial Knight^p²⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: Luca Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 123

5/1

Career best when winning 7-runner handicap hurdle at Warwick (26f, good, 11/4) 29 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Just 3 lb higher now and is one for the shortlist.

Geordie Des Champs⁵⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-5| J: Adam Wedge| T: Miss R Curtis| OR: 123| C

18/1

One-time talented hurdler/chaser, but off 27 months and hard to draw many positives from either start this year.

Form: 1357/P6-

Commentariolus¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Christian Williams| OR: 122

100/1

Fairly useful winning hurdler for Gordon Elliott but final outing for that yard was uninspiring and there was little encouragement drawn from his first start for his new yard last month.

Form: 35/4400-

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 119

10/1

On a long losing run and latest effort over larger obstacles at Market Rasen was particularly disappointing. Switches to hurdles now.

Form: UP/2363-

Everything For You^v⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: C J Todd⁽³⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 109| BF

5/1

Responded to change of headgear when winning at Plumpton (25f) in March and far from disgraced when third in follow-up bid at Warwick next time. Must enter calculations.

Forecasts

Morning Spirit (4/1), Bobhopeornohope (9/2), Imperial Knight (5/1), Everything For You (5/1), Poker Play (7/1), Little Awkward (7/1), Winningseverything (8/1), Umndeni (8/1), Aye Aye Charlie (10/1), Voodoo Doll (16/1), Vive Le Roi (16/1), Geordie Des Champs (18/1), Dolciano Dici (20/1), Spectator (33/1), Commentariolus (100/1)

This can go to IMPERIAL KNIGHT, who found some improvement when scoring at Warwick last time and remains on a workable mark. Umndeni and Everything For You head the list of dangers.
