Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 140

Cobra De Mai^p,t³¹⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Skelton| T: Mrs Caroline Bailey| OR: 132| C

13/2

Well-handicapped on form from a couple of seasons back, but he offered little in 3 starts last term and has questions to answer on debut for new connections here.

Form: 566/7PP-

Vivas^t,v¹⁵³

Age: 10| Weight: 10-13| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 127| CWS

4/1

Course winner who was a creditable second (off 3 lb higher) in this contest 12 months ago. Had a wind operation since last seen and can go well fresh so must enter calculations.

Form: 2P5PPF-

Quartz Du Rheu²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: K Brogan⁽⁵⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 124

9/4

Off the mark over fences at Worcester (23f, good) in July and followed up (albeit fortunately) over same C&D 20 days ago. Must be taken seriously.

Form: 64-4511

Haul Away^p²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: S Bowen| T: N J Henderson| OR: 122

11/4

Scored 3 times this season, latest when taking 4-runner handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good, 9/2) 20 days ago. Not as effective over fences but can race off 9 lb lower mark so can't be ruled out.

Form: 6-13161

Monty Guiry^p1⁹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 118| CD

7/1

Made a successful debut over hurdles here in May. Disappointed on handicap bow latest but this point winner could have more to give now sent chasing. Cheekpieces on first time.

Form: 1F2-133

Forecasts

Quartz Du Rheu (9/4), Haul Away (11/4), Vivas (4/1), Cobra De Mai (13/2), Monty Guiry (7/1), Irish Prophecy (12/1)

VIVAS has a good record first time up and ran well in this contest 12 months ago. He is taken to score. The hat-trick seeking Quartz du Rheu is feared most.
