Pym^p³⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Toby Wynne⁽⁷⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 135

7/1

Smart chaser at peak for Nicky Henderson. Changed hands for £62,000 and stepped up on opening effort for yard when second back hurdling in July. Disappointing at Cartmel since and headgear back on.

Form: 50P-P27

Havana Hermano^p⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 128| C

9/4

Resumed winning ways back over hurdles in determined fashion over 19.9f here in May. Matched that form when placed last 3 starts (over both sets of obstacles) and no reason why he won't give running.

Form: 2-18322

Copper Coin¹⁴²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: T Scudamore| T: M Scudamore| OR: 124

5/2

Lightly raced but it all clicked during the spring, landing a handicap chase and a novice hurdle. Unseated early when last seen in May and retains potential at this sort of level.

Form: 9/3611-U

Risk And Roll¹⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Benjamin Poste| T: H J Evans| OR: 122| D

10/1

Hunter chaser in more recent times, unseating rider at Aintree in April. Never a factor at Cheltenham later that month and now back hurdling for new yard.

Form: 1/32U-41

Very First Time¹³⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Tristan Durrell⁽⁷⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 120| D

18/1

Three-time staying chase winner in 2019/20 but lightly raced and patchy profile in more recent times. In top hands and reverts to hurdling following a break.

Form: 5/3P8P-4

Justatenner^h¹¹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-10| J: Harry Reed| T: T Davidson| OR: 119| BF| C

10/3

Course winner who continues in good heart, again not seen to best effect at Cartmel and Perth last 2 starts. Eased further 2 lb and will pop up when getting a pace to aim at.

Form: 584544

Glan Y Gors^t¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Ross Chapman| T: M Weatherer| OR: 107

25/1

On a lengthy losing run over hurdles/Flat. Hasn't been with current trainer long but not easy to make a case for from just after the weights.

Form: 4448-56

Forecasts

Havana Hermano (9/4), Copper Coin (5/2), Justatenner (10/3), Crossley Tender (9/2), Pym (7/1), Risk And Roll (10/1), Very First Time (18/1), Glan Y Gors (25/1)

JUSTATENNER is pretty reliant on a sound pace given how he is ridden and that isn't guaranteed here, but he certainly lurks on a very good mark these days. Havana Hermano is a very consistent operator and seems sure to be involved, with Copper Coin also of interest on reappearance.
