16/1

Back to something like his best when chasing home the progressive Mint Condition in 21f Wetherby handicap hurdle on Boxing Day. Well held on the level last month fitted with cheekpieces.

20/1

Ended time with Olly Murphy with Leicester selling win in December. Mixed record for Sophie Leech but fared quite well in a race not run to suit at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago.

9/2

Let down by his jumping over fences in 2019/20 and after starting last season well over hurdles, he hasn't kept up the good work since. This does represent a drop in class, at least.

Blakeney Point^b,t²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Theo Gillard⁽⁵⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 125

16/1

Sprung a surprise when scoring at Musselburgh on New Year's Day. Well held next 3 starts but back in an easier race and returned to form when second at Worcester in April. Chester Cup too hot latest.

Finisk River⁶⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 124| CD

11/2

Won twice here in August and runner-up on 3 of his 5 completed starts to end the campaign. Doesn't look particularly well handicapped.

Fleeting Visit^p¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Kielan Woods| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 124

9/1

Fit from Flat when landing 20.5f Southwell handicap in July before following up at Uttoxeter a month later. Looked rusty back on the level 3 weeks ago but that will have served a purpose.

Form: F212/11-

She'sasupermack⁴⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: C O'Farrell| T: I Jardine| OR: 122

10/1

Bagged a Newcastle handicap chase off 8 lb higher mark in December so claims from a handicapping perspective. That said, she didn't offer much back over timber at Cheltenham last month.

Kajaki^v³⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 117

6/1

Dual hurdles winner for Kevin Ryan in 2018. Placed both starts for this yard during 2019/20 campaign and back in good order with a runner-up effort at Perth last month.

Form: 23/6042-

Transpennine Star^p⁴⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Sean Quinlan| T: A M Thomson| OR: 110

13/2

Resumed with a wide-margin success at Stratford in August. Lost his way for Jonjo O'Neill after and though he ran well on the figures at Kelso in March, he looked awkward, and same story last time.

Form: 454P26-

Jelski^p²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: James Moffatt| OR: 108

18/1

Novice winner for Nigel Twiston-Davies but ended time with yard in disappointing fashion. Best effort for James Moffatt when mid-field at Hexham 3 weeks ago and been eased further 4 lb. Up in trip.

Form: 178/8P-6

Forecasts

No Comment (9/2), Finisk River (11/2), Native Fighter (6/1), Kajaki (6/1), Transpennine Star (13/2), Fleeting Visit (9/1), She'sasupermack (10/1), Constantine Bay (10/1), Blakeney Point (16/1), Look My Way (16/1), Jelski (18/1), Perfect Man (20/1)

This has a very open feel to it, and it may pay to trust the stamina of JELSKI tackling this trip for the first time. He's well handicapped on the pick of his form for Nigel Twiston-Davies and is likely to be well primed for this representing a local yard. Fleeting Visit may yet have more to offer as a hurdler, with Kajaki another to consider.
