Ardera Cross^p³¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Young Jnr| OR: 102| C| D

11/1

Fair handicap chaser who won 3 times at Ayr last season, but is struggling for form at present, last of 4 at Perth a month ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 356444

More Buck's^t¹⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-10| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 100| D

7/4

Well treated and bounced back under an attacking ride when second at Market Rasen a fortnight ago. Consistency isn't his strong suit, but this is there for the taking.

Form: P1-12P2

Nyoufsea^t1⁶⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr Nathan Brennan⁽⁷⁾| T: A Sadik| OR: 94

66/1

Modest maiden over hurdles for Iain Jardine. Lost his way for that yard and no encouragement to be gleaned from his effort in a novice on chasing/stable debut a couple of months ago. Now tongue tied.

Form: 6550U-4

My Renaissance^b,t¹²

Age: 11| Weight: 10-13| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 89| C

5/1

Acquitted himself well in trio of chase outings here this summer, so best not judged too harshly on a lesser effort at Bangor 12 days ago. Blinkers back on, so warrants consideration in a weak race.

Form: 5-63335

Tokaramore^p⁴²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: C O'Farrell| T: I Jardine| OR: 89

7/2

Winning hurdler/chaser who posted her best effort for a while when fifth at this course in May. Stamina seemingly stretched here last time, so not a forlorn hope back down in trip.

Form: 46-4544

Lovely Schtuff⁵⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Mrs J Stephen| OR: 88| D

14/1

Hit the target twice over fences last year, but pulled up both outings this term, including over hurdles at Perth a couple of months ago. Plenty to prove.

Form: 1410-PP

Full Spes^p⁶⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: Harry Bannister| T: W Greatrex| OR: 80

10/1

Fair form when in the frame first 2 bumper starts, but little to shout about since, including in a handicap at Stratford on chasing debut a couple of months ago. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 880-P75

So Satisfied^v¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: Miss Alisa McClung⁽⁷⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 72| D

18/1

Weak finisher who has been badly out of sorts this term. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 65-P670

Elixer⁴²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: F P Murtagh| OR: 69

11/1

Long-standing maiden set for another struggle from out of the weights.

Form: 622-566

Forecasts

More Buck's (7/4), Tokaramore (7/2), My Renaissance (5/1), Full Spes (10/1), Ardera Cross (11/1), Elixer (11/1), Lovely Schtuff (14/1), So Satisfied (18/1), Nyoufsea (66/1)

Although not entirely reliable, MORE BUCK'S is well handicapped and arrives on the back of a return to form when second at Market Rasen earlier in the month, so he should have no problem going one better if in the same form. The opposition is pretty questionable, although My Renaissance and Ardera Cross have both shown an ability to run well at this track, so they're at least worth considering.
