Juvenile hurdle winner last summer who dispelled his return mishap when runner-up in a Fontwell handicap (17.7f) in September, held only final 100 yds. Entitled to be thereabouts with a repeat.

Camelot gelding who showed only a modicum of promise in trio of maiden/novice hurdle runs last term. Will hold more chance now handicapping and betting may guide with yard also saddling Dutch Admiral.

Fair Flat winner who resumed winning ways at Epsom (12f) in July. Below form in that sphere more recently and more miss than hit during first spell over hurdles last season.

Underwent breathing op before finishing well held last of 11 at Uttoxeter early last month and similar story when pulled up over fences at Warwick (20f) next time. Hard to warm to. Blinkered.

Posted a career-best effort when defying 4 lb lower mark at Newton Abbot (18.5f) in June. Finished midfield all 3 starts since, left poorly placed when sixth at Exeter 9 days ago.

Built on trio of placed efforts when landing a C&D handicap under a patient ride in August. Unsuited by emphasis on speed when seventh at Exeter 9 days ago and best treated as still in form.

Point winner back in 2017 who didn't make much of an impact in handicap hurdles for present stable last season. Likely best watched on return to action now.

Back-to-back winner of handicap hurdles at up to 21.7f during the spring. Excuses at Worcester in July but he does need to shrug off a lesser effort on return from a break at Huntingdon 11 days ago.

Landed small field maiden hurdle in Jersey in August and backed that up when second in selling handicap at Newton Abbot late last month. Not long with this yard and he may have a little more to offer.

Gained breakthrough win on back of wind op (tongue strap also on) at Uttoxeter (15.7f) in April. Possibly did too much too soon at Market Rasen in May but absent since.

Forecasts

Masterdream (5/2), Serjeant Painter (7/2), Kilchreest Moon (8/1), Dutch Admiral (17/2), Alramz (9/1), Harry The Norseman (10/1), Dr Oakley (10/1), Dolly McQueen (12/1), Ascot Day (20/1), Coachella Green (22/1), Rebel Royal (33/1), Scottsdale (33/1), Picturesque View (40/1)

Verdict

A wide-open class 5 handicap with the narrow vote in favour of 4-y-o MASTERDREAM. A winner in Jersey on his penultimate start, he backed that effort up when second in a selling handicap at Newton Abbot last month and that may not prove his limit for Neil Mulholland. Dutch Admiral, Dr Oakley, on return and Dolly McQueen head up the dangers.

  1. MASTERDREAM (FR)
  2. DUTCH ADMIRAL (IRE)
  3. DR OAKLEY (IRE)
