Uno Mas⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-3| J: Ellis Collier⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 102| D

4/5

Rejuvenated lately, making it 3 from his last 4 when scoring easily off this mark at Aintree last Sunday. Obvious claims under a penalty.

Lord Sparky^b,t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-3| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs Caroline Bailey| OR: 102| C

12/1

Excellent record here over fences last season, winning 3 times. Below form here on return, but may strip fitter for that, so not discounted back over hurdles.

Form: 1PP11-4

Benny Flies High²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: N F Houlihan⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs S J Humphrey| OR: 97

40/1

Well held in bumper/novice hurdles so easily passed over now switched to hurdling from what appears to be a stiff mark.

Form: 9-636

Bagan²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 96| C

11/1

Resumed winning ways in handicap hurdle at Stratford in September on final outing for Tom Gretton. Hasn't matched that since, but was unsuited by the run of the race at Exeter last time.

Form: 3U4168

Out The Glen^t1²¹³

7/1

Lost his way for Debra Hamer last season but returns on a handy mark for a good yard, so worth a market check after 7 months off.

Form: 4/225P5-

Duration^p⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: C Gethings| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 91

200/1

Modest, temperamental stayer on the Flat who is yet to offer much encouragement over hurdles (not seen in this sphere since 2019).

Form: 688/

Abington Park³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Bannister| T: A M Hales| OR: 87| BF

9/2

Off the mark when landing gamble at Hexham in August and not disgraced when third at the same course a month ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 7-3P413

Freethinker^t1²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Paul O'Brien| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 80

22/1

Ran with promise on Newbury bumper debut but has gone the wrong way since. Tongue tied now, but hard to make a case for based on anything he's done over hurdles.

Form: 9U07U-9

Sense Of Adventure^v¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Miss H C Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: L Allan| OR: 80

50/1

Poor maiden hurdler who was below form when down the field over C&D last time. Others preferred.

Form: 86P350

Moidore¹⁵³

Age: 12| Weight: 10-8| J: C J Todd⁽³⁾| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 79

16/1

Infrequent winner who was a respectable third over C&D 153 days ago but looks vulnerable to better-treated rivals on reappearance.

Form: 7P5-433

Racing Spirit^b¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-6| J: Lee Edwards| T: Dave Roberts| OR: 77

25/1

Modest operator who is hard to rely upon and was always behind at Ffos Las recently. Blinkers go back on, but he's likely to struggle again.

Form: 3/1-8728

Angel's Envy^v1²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Lewis Dobb⁽¹⁰⁾| T: L Morgan| OR: 73

25/1

Long-standing maiden who returned with a lacklustre display at Kelso earlier in the month. Doesn't make much appeal.

Forecasts

Uno Mas (4/5), Abington Park (9/2), Out The Glen (7/1), Bagan (11/1), Lord Sparky (12/1), Moidore (16/1), Freethinker (22/1), Racing Spirit (25/1), Angel's Envy (25/1), Connie Wilde (33/1), Benny Flies High (40/1), Sense Of Adventure (50/1), Duration (200/1)

UNO MAS bolted up off this mark in a stronger race at Aintree last weekend so, if the race doesn't come too soon, he shouldn't have much trouble completing the hat-trick. Out The Glen is a viable danger on debut for Olly Murphy and Abington Park is likely to give his running once more.
