10/3

Standout effort over hurdles came here (16.8f) last winter but down the field all 3 starts in handicaps this year. Placed in points earlier in career, so worth noting if strong in betting now chasing.

Form: 726-788

No Quarter Asked¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 93

13/2

Opened his account in 4-runner handicap chase at Ffos Las in July. Not scaled same heights since, well held on back of 4 months off back at that venue 16 days ago. May be sharper now at least.

Form: 27-5168

11/4

Made a winning chasing bow here (16.3f) in April and backed that up when second back here in May. Possible last month's Kelso run was needed and better showing anticipated now.

Form: 551-246

Obey The Rules¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 89| BF

13/8

Low-mileage sort who has improved of late, opening his account at Hereford (2m) prior to finishing a good second at Ludlow 3 weeks ago. No reason why he won't be firmly in the mix again.

Form: 08-5512

Deerfoot^t³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: S Mulqueen| T: M A Barnes| OR: 76

16/1

Modest maiden hurdler who showed more than previously over fences when 6.5 lengths third of 12 at Kelso (17f) last month, losing second on run-in. Task is to build on that now.

Form: 384363

Alburn^t⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 10-0| J: Philip Armson⁽⁷⁾| T: R J Armson| OR: 69

40/1

Little in the way of solid form and already held when blundering 3 out at Fakenham (16.2f) 7 days ago. Others arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 4P5P44

Forecasts

Obey The Rules (13/8), Six One Nine (11/4), Simple Rules (10/3), No Quarter Asked (13/2), Deerfoot (16/1), Alburn (40/1)

OBEY THE RULES has improved at a low level of late, successful at Hereford prior to finishing runner-up at Ludlow on his latest start 3 weeks ago. He looks sure to go well again and earns the vote to come out on top. Six One Nine can provide the chief threat, ahead of No Quarter Asked.
