Elusive Rebeldom^h³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jordan Gainford⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs D Foster| OR: 120| D

22/1

Winner of a Punchestown maiden hurdle in February 2020, but finished out with the washing back from a 15-month absence at Kilbeggan.

Form: 84301/0

Ginistrelli^t⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Fergus Gregory⁽³⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 120| D

14/1

Doubled hurdles tally on back of a second wind op at Doncaster (2m, good) in March. However, his profile is rather patchy and arrives here on the back of a disappointing display on the Flat.

Form: 141F2-

So Near So Farhh^p⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Danny McMenamin| T: C A McBratney| OR: 111| D

4/1

Struggled over hurdles scoring at Punchestown in September, but recent effort on the Flat was encouraging and she's dangerous to discount having slipped to an attractive mark.

Form: 7809P0-

Grey Girly^t¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: D A Jacob| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 102| CD

1/1

Deservedly got the job done at the thirteenth attempt when scoring over C&D (good) 13 days ago. Nudged up just 3 lb and another bold show is anticipated.

Form: 3295-21

Darkest Day^p¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Young Jnr| OR: 102| D

12/1

Off the mark at Plumpton in March and bounced back following a couple of low-key efforts when runner-up in first-time cheekpieces on debut for new yard at Cartmel (17.2f, good). Couldn't rule out.

Form: 32168-2

My Macho Man^t²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: C O'Farrell| T: M A Barnes| OR: 105

11/2

Fair Flat winner for John Quinn and improved third of 13 in a Kelso novice (16.2f, good) on fourth start over hurdles. Very much of interest now going down the handicap route in this sphere.

Form: 65-43

Genever Dragon^p⁵⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 105

11/1

Fair maiden on Flat and made a successful start over hurdles at Sedgefield in September. Third off 2 lb higher in 2m Worcester handicap (2m) last time and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 143093-

Forecasts

Grey Girly (1/1), So Near So Farhh (4/1), My Macho Man (11/2), Genever Dragon (11/1), Darkest Day (12/1), Ginistrelli (14/1), Elusive Rebeldom (22/1)

The most appealing of these is MY MACHO MAN, who took a step forward when third in a Kelso novice and makes his handicap debut in this sphere off what looks a workable mark. So Near So Farhh will be a threat if able to build on her recent effort on the Flat and Grey Girly, who opened her account over C&D last time, is also accorded respect.
