Faivoir²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 144| BF

6/4

Useful hurdler who made a winning start over fences on the back of a wind op at Uttoxeter last month. Not disgraced in a Cheltenham novice handicap next time and may still do better.

Form: 1311-14

Torn And Frayed²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 133

6/5

Dual hurdler winner last term who made a promising start over fences when third of 5 in 20f handicap at Cheltenham 28 days ago. That form is working out well, so he rates a player.

Form: 51213-3

Cascova²³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 132| CD

4/1

Fairly useful hurdler who signed off with win in 19f novice here in March. Returns for chase debut and he can't be discounted.

Form: 0P/2P21-

Forecasts

Torn And Frayed (6/5), Faivoir (6/4), Cascova (4/1), Glory And Honour (10/1), Golden Boy Grey (16/1)

TORN AND FRAYED shaped well when third at Cheltenham on his chasing bow and is fancied to build on that and open his account in this sphere now. Faivoir rates the obvious threat from the red-hot Skelton team, with fencing-debutant Cascova also worth a second look.
