Czech Her Out^h,t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: T Scudamore| T: M Scudamore| OR: 100

15/2

6/1, capitalised on a falling mark in 10-runner handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good) 23 days ago. Back up 6 lb now but she can't be discounted.

Form: 5-76P51

Kennack Bay²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Kielan Woods| T: B Pauling| OR: 98

16/1

Still without a win, and only ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (19.6f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Significantly up in trip with work to do.

Form: 0/467P-9

Jamessaintpatrick^t³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: J M Quinlan| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 95

9/1

Modest seventh of 13 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (21.4f, good) 31 days ago, going in snatches. Needs a couple of these to falter back in this sphere.

Form: 643547

Dante's View⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Tom Cannon| T: George Baker| OR: 94

10/1

Hinted at a revival when fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (23.1f, good to firm) 44 days ago. No forlorn hope if building on that after his break.

Form: 478-464

Give Us A Swig²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: G Sheehan| T: S Curran| OR: 94

20/1

Winner at Worcester in July but pulled up in handicap there 27 days ago. Up in trip and needs to bounce back.

Form: 68-401P

Uno Mas¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Ellis Collier⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 92| D

4/1

25/1, improved on recent efforts to land 14-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good) 13 days ago. Up 5 lb but still holds good claims on form.

Form: 6-04491

Watching Brief¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: C Brace| T: D Brace| OR: 90

11/2

Winner in hurdle at Uttoxeter in July and good second of 14 in handicap at Cartmel (22.1f, good) 15 days ago, doing too much too soon. Not taken lightly off the same mark.

Form: 361532

Capricia^p²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: M Keighley| OR: 88| BF

11/2

Cheekpieces on for 1st time but never going with much fluency when fifth of 8 in handicap chase at Stratford (27.5f, good) 26 days ago. Switches to hurdles with more needed.

Form: 46P-845

Racing Spirit^b,t⁸⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-7| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dave Roberts| OR: 81

22/1

Off 11 months before fading eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, good) 85 days ago. Can build on that and give a good account now.

Form: 2733/1-8

Thirsty Farmer^t⁵⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: David Noonan| T: R G Hawker| OR: 78

15/2

12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (21.6f, good to firm) 50 days ago. Still low mileage, so not ruled out in bid for a first victory.

Form: 88P45-3

Monty Massini^p⁶²

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: Charlie Price⁽⁵⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 73

33/1

Remains a maiden after 24 runs. 22/1, respectable sixth of 16 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (24f, good) 62 days ago but more is required back in this sphere.

Form: 726-536

Just In A Muddle^b1¹²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 72

22/1

Poor maiden hurdler/chaser. Only ninth of 13 in handicap chase at Warwick (24f, heavy) 129 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time now with something to find.

Form: 3/0PP2-9

Forecasts

Uno Mas (4/1), Capricia (11/2), Watching Brief (11/2), Czech Her Out (15/2), Thirsty Farmer (15/2), Jamessaintpatrick (9/1), Dante's View (10/1), Ali The Hunter (10/1), Kennack Bay (16/1), Give Us A Swig (20/1), Racing Spirit (22/1), Just In A Muddle (22/1), Monty Massini (33/1)

A case can be made for a few of these but recent Uttoxeter scorer UNO MAS gets the nod given he still looks well weighted despite a 6 lb rise for that success. Watching Brief arrives at the top of his game and rates a big threat back up in trip, while Czech Her Out is also in the mix on the back of her Worcester success.
