Pakie's Dream^v²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 99| D

12/1

Lissitzky⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Adam Wedge| T: Miss R Curtis| OR: 93

11/1

Blinkered/tongue strap on for 1st time when below-form sixth of 10 in 2m4f handicap hurdle at Ffos Las 58 days ago. Goes over fences now and needs to get back on track.

Form: 5072-96

Capricia⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: S Bowen| T: M Keighley| OR: 93

4/1

Off 4 months before fading eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, good) 56 days ago. Should strip fitter now sent over fences so she's no forlorn hope.

Form: 4546P-8

That's Me⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: R Patrick| T: Kerry Lee| OR: 92| D

4/1

Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. Good fifth of 14 in handicap at Taunton (19f) in January on final run for Tim Vaughan. Winner since in points so much respected on his debut in this sphere.

Form: 5685-51

Maison D'Or^p³⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 92

40/1

Modest 3m1f winner over hurdles. 12/1, only seventh of 9 in handicap chase at Hexham (24.2f, good) on his debut over fences 39 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with plenty more required.

Form: 4296P-7

An Siltean^v¹³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: J Bedi| OR: 87| D

100/1

Visored for 1st time, only tenth of 14 in 3m handicap hurdle at Perth (100/1) 13 days ago. Needs lots more now sent chasing.

Form: 20/0B-P0

Zen Master³²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: Callum Bewley| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 81

125/1

It's now twenty four runs since last win in 2017 and pulled up in handicap chase at Hexham (15.6f) 32 days ago. Others are much preferred.

Form: 850F9-P

Jonjoela⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-6| J: Harry Bannister| T: A M Hales| OR: 79| D

25/1

Just one win from 29 runs, and tried visored when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f) 9 days ago. Lot more is required back in this sphere.

Form: 2252-0P

Go On Chez⁵⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 78

7/1

Ungenuine type who was pulled up when tried in blinkers in Sedgefield handica (19.8f) 6 months ago. Hard to warm to on his return/fencing bow.

Form: 00P22-1

Lawtop Legend^b³²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-5| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 78| BF

4/1

Scored over hurdles at Plumpton in May for his new yard and also good third of 15 in handicap chase at Worcester (23f) 32 days ago. May do better still, so player off an unchanged mark.

Form: 462-143

Le Pogues Storm^p¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: R T Dunne| T: A Ralph| OR: 78| DWS

10/1

8/1, first form shown when fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (21.6f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Back chasing now after a wind op but others appeal more.

Form: 75-F074

West Class¹⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-4| J: J Kington| T: P Winks| OR: 77| D

150/1

Still a maiden, and pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (17.2f) 10 days ago. Significantly up in trip with lots of work to do.

Form: 7446/PP

Monty Massini^p³⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 10-1| J: Charlie Price⁽⁵⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 74

22/1

Remains a maiden after 23 runs but veteran recorded creditable third of 8 in handicap chase at Fontwell (26f) 35 days ago. Can make his presence felt again eased 1 lb in the weights.

Form: 3726-53

Three County's⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: James Best| T: M Young| OR: 73

66/1

Failed to complete for third start in a row when unseating rider first in 2m4f handicap chase here 8 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

Scaramucci⁶⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Rex Dingle| T: J Farrelly| OR: 73

8/1

Remains a maiden after 18 runs but not disgraced when seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle here (23.3f) 60 days ago. Shortlisted returned to this sphere after his break.

Age: 12| Weight: 10-0| J: Chris Ward⁽⁵⁾| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 69| D

150/1

Yet to show much in three runs over fences, remote fifth of 7 in handicap chase over C&D 41 days ago. Hard to warm to from 4 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 870/6P-5

Forecasts

Lawtop Legend (4/1), Capricia (4/1), That's Me (4/1), Go On Chez (7/1), Scaramucci (8/1), Le Pogues Storm (10/1), Lissitzky (11/1), Pakie's Dream (12/1), Monty Massini (22/1), Jonjoela (25/1), Maison D'Or (40/1), Three County's (66/1), An Siltean (100/1), Zen Master (125/1), Push Ahead (150/1), West Class (150/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest. LAWTOP LEGEND has been in excellent form since joining Dr Richard Newland and is taken to add to his spring hurdles win at the chief expense of That's Me who arrives on the back of a point success and is much respected for his new yard. Pakie's Dream has yet to match his hurdles form but is another who is weighted to have a say.
