David Lloyd Celebrating 75 Years Handicap Hurdle (Div 2)

Off time: 15:25 | Winning time: 5m 53.50s

Czech Her Out^h,t³²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: T Scudamore| T: M Scudamore| OR: 99

8/1

Capitalised on a falling mark when landing a 10-runner handicap at Worcester (23f) in August. Not disgraced upped to 26f at Fontwell next time and she's not without hope back at this trip.

Form: 76P514

Fairlawn Flyer²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 95| D

7/2

Improved when scoring in good style on handicap debut at Perth (3m) last month, leaving the impression that there's better to come. Major player despite going up 8 lb.

Form: 6-7321

Remember The Man^t¹³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: J M Quinlan| T: N B King| OR: 94

28/1

Good second off a 4 lb higher mark at Wincanton in March, but below that level in 3 subsequent starts and record in this sphere now stands at 0-17.

Form: 6524-85

Lily Glitters³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: T J O'Brien| T: H D Daly| OR: 92

11/2

Still a maiden, but benefited from the step up to 23.3f when fourth of 10 at Uttoxeter (23.3f). 2 lb lower here and she should have a part to play, particularly if they go a good clip.

Form: 94-7F84

Watching Brief⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: C Brace| T: D Brace| OR: 90

17/2

Winner of a Uttoxeter handicap in July and found just one too good at Cartmel the following month. However, he has failed to fire the last twice and strike rate under Rules (1-34) tells a story.

Form: 153299

Sienna Royale¹⁶⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Rex Dingle| T: J Scott| OR: 88

8/1

Strong at the finish when opening her account at Fontwell (19.2f) in March. Performed with credit when fourth of 15 in a Uttoxeter handicap upped to 23.3f next time, but this demands a step forward.

Form: 02/551-4

Timely Gift^t²³³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 85| C

40/1

Ended 2019 with 2 handicap hurdle wins around 3m, but he didn't shown much in a couple of attempts over the larger obstacles last season.

Form: 211/82P-

In Rem³³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: Chester Williams⁽³⁾| T: Mrs J Williams| OR: 82

16/1

Runner-up in a Stratford bumper on debut in March 2019. However, efforts in maiden/novice hurdles for Gary Moore last season lacked spark and vast improvement needed now pitched into a handicap.

Form: 20/05-

The Boat¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 79

20/1

Modest maiden hurdler and reverts to this sphere following a couple of very low-key displays over fences.

Form: 79897-6

Dynamic Kate^t¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 78| BF

4/1

Still searching for her first win, but she's made the frame on each of her 3 starts at 23f since undergoing a wind op in June. Likely to be on the premises once again.

Form: 4-47234

Kingston King^p,t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Philip Armson⁽⁷⁾| T: D A Rees| OR: 72| D

7/1

Winner of 26f Newton Abbot handicap chase in June and not disgraced from 7 lb out of the weights back hurdling there last month. Just 1 lb 'wrong' this time and he's in with an each-way shout.

Form: 9-31734

Forecasts

Fairlawn Flyer (7/2), Dynamic Kate (4/1), Lily Glitters (11/2), Kingston King (7/1), Sienna Royale (8/1), Czech Her Out (8/1), Watching Brief (17/2), In Rem (16/1), The Boat (20/1), Remember The Man (28/1), Timely Gift (40/1)

The way FAIRLAWN FLYER quickened clear when making a winning handicap bow at Perth strongly suggested that this 8 lb higher mark will be within reach. The 5-y-o remains open to improvement and he gets the nod ahead of Lily Glitters, who put in good late work when fourth at Uttoxeter last time. Dynamic Kate also enters calculations, along with Czech Her Out.
