5/6

Improving hurdler who made it 3-4 this season when cosily landing the odds in 10-runner handicap hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, good) 11 days ago. Up 8 lb now but he's still weighted to go in again.

Fair 10f winner at 10f on Flat who posted good third in cheekpieces in handicap hurdle at Worcester (16f, good) 24 days ago. Can't be ruled out off the same mark with headgear retained.

Forecasts

Sergeant (5/6), Hackbridge (10/3), Blood Eagle (8/1), Uncle O (12/1), Electric Annie (12/1), Dolly McQueen (12/1), O'Rahilly (16/1), Uae Soldier (25/1)

SERGEANT arrives on an upward curve and is fancied to make it 4-5 this term after his cosy Exeter win earlier in the month. In-form Hackbridge appeals as next best with Blood Eagle also one for the shortlist after his solid Exeter fifth.
