Aliym^b,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: K Brogan| T: Mrs D Foster| OR: 107| D

5/2

Bumper winner who recently opened his hurdles account on third start for this yard at Down Royal (20.4f). Shade more needed here, but he merits respect nonetheless.

Form: 890-571

Universal Folly⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny McMenamin⁽³⁾| T: N G Richards| OR: 107WS

5/1

Shaped well in bumpers and placed first 3 hurdles starts, runner-up on Musselburgh handicap debut in November. Well held both starts since returning from a break and since undergone a wind operation.

Form: 4/3226-P

Guido Reni^t¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Alan Doyle⁽⁵⁾| T: K Thornton| OR: 105

6/1

Poor strike rate, sole win from 36 starts (Flat and hurdles) gained in a Tipperary handicap hurdle in May 2018. However, worth a second look on the back of a couple of creditable efforts on the level.

Form: 2059/P9-

Deealli^t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: William Marshall⁽³⁾| T: K Thornton| OR: 104

11/1

Creditable third in a big-field Limerick handicap on penultimate start and not disgraced at Kilbeggan next time. Now 0-10 over hurdles, though, and may find one or two too good once more.

Form: 020-637

Thirtyfourstitches¹¹^{(ex 7)}

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Jordan Nailor| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 87| D

11/4

Seen to good effect from the front when opening account upped to this trip at Worcester 11 days ago. Solid chance of following up under a penalty here.

Form: 39599-1

Lovely Schtuff²⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: Mrs J Stephen| OR: 91

66/1

Hit the target twice over fences last year, but offered little back from a break at Hexham last month and fair bit to prove back in this sphere.

Form: U1410-P

Wise Coco^p¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Liam Harrison| T: A C Whillans| OR: 79| C

7/1

Just the one win to her name, namely a handicap hurdle at this course in September 2019. Still, she has put in decent shifts in 2 runs here since returning from a break and couldn't rule out.

Form: 2PP9-34

Rockliffe^p²³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Emma Smith-Chaston⁽⁶⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 73

18/1

Winless since December 2018 and most recent efforts in this sphere and on the Flat have lacked spark.

Form: 659596-

Forecasts

Aliym (5/2), Thirtyfourstitches (11/4), Universal Folly (5/1), Guido Reni (6/1), Wise Coco (7/1), Deealli (11/1), Rockliffe (18/1), Lovely Schtuff (66/1)

THIRTYFOURSTITCHES did the job well enough at Worcester recently to suggest that he can defy a penalty here. He is taken to make every post a winning one, perhaps at the chief expense of Wise Coco, who has performed with credit here the last twice and remains on an attractive mark. Universal Folly will be a threat if able to get back on track following wind surgery and Aliym also has claims.
