Lorna Brooke Amateur Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 16:20 | Winning time: 5m 23.51s

Peterborough²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Miss Eleanor Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 112

9/1

Returned with a bang in handicap chases last term, getting the hat-trick up at Sedgefield (extended 2m) in September. Mixed record since but potentially well treated back over hurdles. Up in trip.

Form: 11143-4

Damut I'm Out²³⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr James King| T: A Ralph| OR: 110

40/1

Hard to catch right but did win a couple last summer. May need this after 7 months off.

Form: 5/41P10-

Valhalla^t⁵⁵⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr D Andrews⁽⁷⁾| T: Claire Hitch| OR: 109

50/1

Fairly useful hurdler/chaser for Colin Tizzard but not seen since falling heavily back over hurdles at Cheltenham in November 2019.

Form: 3P47FF/

Celtic Joy^p⁵⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr D Edwards| T: G F Edwards| OR: 106

33/1

Sole success thus far came in Kempton handicap back in 2019 and offered little in 4 starts last term. Likely best watched on debut for new connections here.

Form: 26/7845-

Kilbrew Boy³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Charlie Case⁽⁷⁾| T: B I Case| OR: 106

7/1

Resumed winning ways in chase at Wincanton in December. Mixed record since but ran well over hurdles on penultimate start and needs considering off a career-low mark.

Form: 541P49-

Jennys Day⁵⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss Jess Stewart⁽⁷⁾| T: Katy Price| OR: 96

11/2

Losing run dates back to 2016 but was a creditable 4¼ lengths second of 15 to Catchin Time in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (21.4f, good) 56 days ago off reduced mark.

Form: 9/73PP2-

Our Rockstar¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Ben Bromley⁽⁷⁾| T: A Ralph| OR: 96| CD

6/4

Back to form when ending a losing run from a career-low mark over C&D 2 weeks ago and remains with handicapping scope off 6 lb higher.

Form: 24680-1

Hahadi^v²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr Zac Baker| T: M Sheppard| OR: 94| D

4/1

Won twice over hurdles last season, including on debut for this yard last month, but not quite in same form both starts since.

Form: 61213-6

Catchin Time^p³⁶

Age: 13| Weight: 10-5| J: Mr Peter Summers⁽⁷⁾| T: L Hurley| OR: 89| D

25/1

Hadn't shown much for some time but caused a surprise from 3 lb out of weights off when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Wincanton (21.4f, 125/1) but failed to back that up there next time.

Form: 565/017-

Well Briefed³³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Miss Katie Powell⁽⁷⁾| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 88

16/1

Successful between the flags, but she hasn't pulled up any trees in 4 runs over hurdles, including on handicap bow latest.

Form: 140530-

Forecasts

Our Rockstar (6/4), Hahadi (4/1), Jennys Day (11/2), Kilbrew Boy (7/1), Peterborough (9/1), Well Briefed (16/1), Catchin Time (25/1), Celtic Joy (33/1), Damut I'm Out (40/1), Valhalla (50/1)

OUR ROCKSTAR stayed on well when ending her losing run over this C&D 2 weeks ago and a 6 lb rise doesn't look insurmountable. Peterborough is potentially well treated back over hurdles so may emerge as the biggest threat if seeing out this longer distance.
