Off time: 14:16 | Winning time: 5m 0.29s

Kamil^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: B S Hughes| T: H Hogarth| OR: 99

11/2

Is seemingly hard to train, but showed some ability remains after 19 months off when third of 5 in 15.9f handicap chase at Carlisle 3 weeks ago. Not dismissed back up in trip.

Form: 145P5/3

Roxyfet¹³⁰

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Emma Smith-Chaston⁽⁷⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 99| C| D

66/1

Has won 9 times at this venue but hasn't gone with any encouragement either start since 2019/20 and could only consider if backed.

Form: P112/P-P

Don't Need To Know^t²²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Ryan Mania| T: R M Smith| OR: 98

12/1

Modest maiden chaser who went close to breaking his duck in a 9-runner handicap chase at Newcastle (20.1f) in March. Shouldn't be far away if returning in similar form from 3 lb higher.

Form: U43462-

Cilluirid^t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: T D Easterby| OR: 97| C| D

4/1

Confirmed the positives of his chasing debut when landing a 21f course handicap in good style. Shaped as if still in good form from 7 lb higher at Market Rasen subsequently and remains of interest.

Form: 900-F13

Clondaw Pretender^p1,t³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Craig Nichol| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 95WS

17/2

Posted a good second on handicap hurdle debut here in January 2020, but disappointing all 3 starts since, including when pulled up on Bangor chasing bow last time. Had wind op/cheekpieces also go on.

Form: 6627/8P

First Revolution^h²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Callum Bewley| T: M Todhunter| OR: 89

15/2

Is hard to win with but filled the runner-up spot for a third consecutive start at Bangor (17.4f) in September. Good run halted at Hexham last time but would have benefited from a stronger gallop.

Form: 762228

Knocknamona²²⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: Alain Cawley| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 89

50/1

Successful in this sphere at Bangor before a good second back over hurdles at Uttoxeter in December. Ran poorly next 3 starts, though, so needs to bounce back in a big way on this return to action.

Form: 8127P8-

Hungry Tiger¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Jonathon Bewley⁽³⁾| T: G Bewley| OR: 87

8/1

Ex-Irish chase winner who was in the process of stepping up on his yard debut when falling 3 out in handicap chase at Kelso (17.1f) 12 days ago. Not discounted if none the worse for that tumble.

Form: 6-0166F

Zen Master¹⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-5| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 78| C

13/2

Form: 9-PP441

Muroor^b²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-3| J: Thomas Dowson| T: V Thompson| OR: 76| CD

9/1

Unreliable type who won this race 12 months ago and added to his placed efforts this season when second of 8 in handicap chase at Hexham (15.6f, soft) 26 days ago, finishing strongly. Back up in trip.

Form: 7233P2

Tumbling Dice¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Thomas Willmott⁽⁵⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 74

6/1

Has yet to show much, though did shape as if better for the run after 7 months off when seventh on Kelso chasing debut (23.4f) 12 days ago. This will reveal more.

Form: 76990-7

Forecasts

Cilluirid (4/1), Kamil (11/2), Tumbling Dice (6/1), Zen Master (13/2), First Revolution (15/2), Hungry Tiger (8/1), Clondaw Pretender (17/2), Muroor (9/1), Don't Need To Know (12/1), Knocknamona (50/1), Roxyfet (66/1)

Recent course winner CILLUIRID shaped as if still in good form from his new mark when third at Market Rasen 19 days ago, despite not being seen to best effect, so he remains of firm interest. First Revolution has solid each-way claims if bouncing back from a below-par display at Hexham, with the returning Don't Need To Know another to consider.
