Racing TV Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 17:21 | Winning time: 6m 7.48s

Neverbeen To Paris¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Harry Bannister| T: P G Murphy| OR: 114

8/1

Would be a danger to all off this reduced mark if he were to put his best foot forward, but a revival didn't look imminent when sixth of 8 on recent debut for new yard at Warwick.

Form: 8360-76

Commentariolus¹³³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 112

20/1

Winner of a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott, but that success was gained back in February 2018 and he's offered little in 3 starts for this yard.

Form: 4400-74

Blue Sans^p,t³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 111

9/4

Point/bumper winner who, fitted with first-time cheekpieces, doubled her tally over hurdles in a 7-runner Worcester handicap (2½m) last month. Up just 3 lb and this new trip should be within range.

Form: 03-2121

Champagne Noir²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 109| C

5/2

Chase winner who produced his best effort yet in this sphere following a wind op when finding just one too good at Uttoxeter (23.3f) last month. Possibilities if able to build on that.

Form: 3484-72

Khan^t⁷⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Harry Reed| T: M F Harris| OR: 105

9/1

Backed up Fontwell victory with good fourth in a 9-runner Cartmel handicap in June, but well held at Stratford the following month and absent since. Presenting Yeats appears to be the stable No 1.

Form: U7-7145

He's A Goer^b,t³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: C Gethings| T: B Leavy| OR: 98

50/1

Little impact in half-a-dozen starts since joining this yard (over fences the last twice) and it's best to look elsewhere.

Form: 06/0P6-P

Hattaab^b³³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Kielan Woods| T: F O'Brien| OR: 96

10/3

Has found life tougher since resuming winning ways at Worcester in July, and he appears to be the stable second-string.

Form: P21985

Presenting Yeats¹⁵

Weight: 10-2| Age: 5

T: M F Harris J: James Best

Forecasts

Blue Sans (9/4), Champagne Noir (5/2), Presenting Yeats (3/1), Hattaab (10/3), Neverbeen To Paris (8/1), Khan (9/1), Commentariolus (20/1), He's A Goer (50/1)

PRESENTING YEATS displayed good battling qualities when striking over this trip at Warwick recently and it's unlikely that a 3 lb rise will be enough to prevent him from going in again. That said, he certainly won't have things all his own way, as Blue Sans has also gone up just 3 lb for her latest Worcester success and she remains unexposed. Champagne Noir is also shortlisted.
