Thebannerkingrebel^t²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 134

9/1

Three-time novice hurdle winner in 2019/20 and left alone at the first on chase debut at Plumpton in December. Shaped second best at the weights back over timber last month and should go close here.

Form: 0/61FP-3

Ask Paddington^h²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Reed| T: T Davidson| OR: 133| CD

9/4

Has thrived since joining this yard and added to his tally with a career best over C&D in April. Another solid effort when finishing third at Aintree since so another bold showing on the cards.

Form: 2/1021-4

Glinger Flame^p³⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: B S Hughes| T: N G Richards| OR: 133| CD

7/1

Can look a little ungainly on occasions but his strike-rate can't be knocked, winning again over C&D last autumn. Looked rusty on return at Market Rasen last time so should be closer to form here.

Form: 415/19-4

Glynn⁹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 133WS

11/2

Successful pointer who was impressive in making a winning hurdling debut at Doncaster. Things didn't go to plan last season, though, so has something to prove at present.

Form: 11/2PP-

Stranger Danger⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: D A Jacob| T: Mrs D Foster| OR: 126

13/2

Fairly useful hurdler who confirmed previous promise when scoring in Downpatrick maiden hurdle in March. Similar form in a competitive event at Punchestown since and is one to note on handicap debut.

Form: 362217-

Itsnotyouitsme^t²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Ross Chapman| T: M A Barnes| OR: 120| CD

5/2

Fair hurdler who finally put it all together in devastating fashion sent straight back over hurdles in novice at this C&D (good to soft) 25 days ago. A reproduction of that puts him well in the mix.

Form: 7232-P1

Forecasts

Ask Paddington (9/4), Itsnotyouitsme (5/2), Glynn (11/2), Stranger Danger (13/2), Glinger Flame (7/1), Thebannerkingrebel (9/1), Look My Way (10/1)

THEBANNERKINGREBEL shaped as if better for the run on his return over timber at Warwick last month, a lost shoe and a 13-week break enough to excuse a tame finish. He's had his breathing issues in the past but can get back to winning ways here down in grade. Itsnotyouitsme scored in devastating fashion over C&D 25 days ago so he rates as the main threat, ahead of Look My Way.
