11/8
Confirmed previous encouragement when opening his account over hurdles at Stratford (Mordred second) 26 days ago, eased down late. Had plenty to spare, so capable of defying a penalty.

4/1
Left previous form well behind when landing a novice hurdle at Worcester a month ago. Had the run of things there, but the form looks solid, so he's no forlorn hope under a penalty.

5/2
Fair performer on the Flat and off the mark at fifth attempt in this sphere when landing a Huntingdon maiden in May. Runner-up both starts since, so likely to give another good account.

Formerly with Willie Mullins (showed fairly useful form in a bumper), but no impact over hurdles and broke a blood vessel when last seen 8 months ago.

Modest maiden at best on Flat and well held in a bumper/pair of novice hurdles.

4/1
Fairly useful on Flat for left Richard Hannon and made a pleasing start in this sphere when runner-up to Butte Montana in novice at Stratford in June. Unlikely to reverse the form.

Related to plenty of winners but shaped like a stayer in a couple of bumpers, so more likely to make an impact further down the line in this discipline.

Forecasts

Butte Montana (11/8), Kentucky Hardboot (5/2), Captain Ivan (4/1), Mordred (4/1), Vermillion Rose (80/1), Dionysis (150/1), Emojie (250/1)

Verdict

BUTTE MONTANA wasn't hard pressed to open his account at Stratford last time and he has enough ability to defy a penalty in an average affair. Mordred was behind the selection that day but is open to improvement, so he and Kentucky Hardboot are both regarded as dangers.

  1. BUTTE MONTANA (IRE)
  2. KENTUCKY HARDBOOT (IRE)
  3. MORDRED (IRE)
