Hang In There⁶^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 12-1| J: Joe Anderson⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 135| D

9/2

Looked very useful prospect when landing Cheltenham Grade 2 in 2019. Right back on his game when runner-up at Newbury in March and well prepared when a smooth winner at Stratford a week ago. Player.

Hooper³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Ben Ffrench Davis⁽⁷⁾| T: N J Henderson| OR: 139| D

5/1

Progressive 5-y-o who enhanced his already impressive strike rate when fending off another improving one ay Stratford a month ago. Up 7 lb but limit may not yet have been reached.

Form: 2111-11

Mrs Hyde²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: D A Jacob| T: B Ellison| OR: 136

33/1

Bumper winner for Fergal O'Brien. Has won 4 of her 7 starts for this yard over hurdles, including twice in listed company. Out of her depth on the level last month and this mark looks tough.

Form: 131132-

Snookered^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Aidan Coleman| T: B Ellison| OR: 135| D

125/1

Useful hurdler and fair winner at 12f on Flat. Fit from a spell on the level and looked set to be placed until falling heavily at the last 3 weeks ago.

Form: 34F17-F

Camprond⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 134| CD

7/2

Form: 2312-31

Wicked West²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 130

6/1

Another shrewd acquisition to Dr Richard Newland, supplementng his Ffos Las maiden winner in 8-runner novice at Southwell last month. Now goes handicapping and may have a bigger effort in him.

Form: 7F24-11

Pagero²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 129| D

12/1

Completed a hat-trick at Newton Abbot last August and has returned in top form, placed at Ludlow and Worcester. 4 lb rise to contend with.

Form: 1/127-32

Red Force One²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Thomas Dowson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 128| CD

11/1

Fit from a spin on the level when landing this race from 2 lb lower a year ago for Paul Nicholls. Soon beaten in the Northumberland Vase 3 weeks ago but this may have been his target.

Form: 563/106-

Valentino Dancer^p,t⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 123| D

11/1

Fairly useful 2m winner for Olly Murphy. Confirmed the promise of his stable debut when cashing in on a reduced mark in this headgear combination at Kelso in May. Up 8 lb in a better race.

Form: 3696-31

Stonific¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-9| J: T Scudamore| T: D O'Meara| OR: 122| D

40/1

Possessed too much speed for his rivals when successful at Doncaster in February 2020. Raced exclusively on the Flat since, winning 3 times but revised mark in this sphere asks for more.

Form: 233F31/

Goa Lil²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Jordan Nailor⁽³⁾| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 122

80/1

Jumping has been an issue over the larger obstacles in recent times. Disappointing when last seen over hurdles in March and others are more persuasive.

Form: 4407-36

Voice Of Calm⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 122| D

16/1

Fair Flat winner for Harry Dunlop and has taken well to hurdling, recording second success on handicap debut at Cartmel in May. Test of speed her will suit.

Form: 51-31

Ingleby Hollow^p,t⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: Mr Matthew Ennis⁽⁷⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 121| D

33/1

Hurdles wins came back in early 2019. Cashed in on a lowly Flat mark under a good ride at Doncaster 9 days ago and assessor has also given him a chance in this sphere.

Form: 3/4363F-

Competition^t²³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-5| J: J J Burke| T: T Lacey| OR: 118

50/1

Fairly useful winning hurdler for Dr Richard Newland in 2019. Looked in need of the run back hurdling in a warm race at Aintree in April and has since landed a Flat seller.

Form: 4P224/P-

Ambassador^p1²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 117| BF

11/1

Speedy type who opened account in juvenile maiden at Hereford (2m) in March. Rather expensive to follow since, runner-up all 4 starts and cheekpieces now go in back in a handicap.

Form: 512-222

Forecasts

Camprond (7/2), Hang In There (9/2), Hooper (5/1), Wicked West (6/1), Valentino Dancer (11/1), Ambassador (11/1), Red Force One (11/1), Pagero (12/1), Voice Of Calm (16/1), Ingleby Hollow (33/1), Mrs Hyde (33/1), Stonific (40/1), Competition (50/1), Goa Lil (80/1), Snookered (125/1)

Competitive stuff but HANG IN THERE was very impressive when outclassing 4 rivals on last week's return to action, and with a conditional more than offsetting the penalty, he may well follow up. Hooper possesses a superb strike rate, while Camprond has placed form in hot handicaps this spring, but the main threat to the selection may come from stablemate Voice of Calm.
