Olympic Honour¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Isabel Williams⁽⁵⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 99| BF

4/1

Recorded a second success on the Flat at Ffos Las in August. Ran poorly on his last hurdles start but clearly wasn't 100% on the day and remains well treated on his best form.

Form: 07-2130

Harbour Force^v⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Brendan Powell| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 92| CD

10/1

Is a C&D winner but well held both starts on the Flat this summer and was again below form back hurdling in a selling event at Stratford last time. Enough to prove.

Form: 5903-P5

Cry Wolf^p³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: J E Moore| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 90

5/1

First run over hurdles since 2018 when landing 23f handicap (50/1) at Worcester in August. Decent third from 3 lb higher at Uttoxeter since, but for how long he holds it together remains to be seen.

Form: P485/13

Strike The Flint^b²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Harry Bannister| T: Miss S Smith| OR: 84| D

9/4

Back on track recently, improving on her Fontwell third to go 2 places better at Plumpton (20.5f) 25 days ago, making all. Hit with 8 lb rise but should remain competitive.

Form: 7-P6P31

Cut And Run^p⁵³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: S Bowen| T: M Keighley| OR: 84

6/1

More miss than hit since registering sole success in a mares' maiden at Bangor over 2 years ago, but with her yard going better now, it's not out the question that she could bounce back.

Form: 8P-758P

Mr Yeats⁸⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Mitchell Bastyan⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| OR: 77

4/1

Poor maiden who wasn't disgraced in first-time cheekpieces when third at Cartmel (22.1f) in July, but requires a bit more for win purposes.

Form: 753-853

STRIKE THE FLINT beat ordinary opposition at Plumpton last month, but this race doesn't look to have much depth to it either, so the percentage call is that she'll have enough to follow up. Cut And Run is a disappointing type on the whole, but with her yard going much better now, it's feasible to think she could bounce back.
