Another Brown Bear²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson

9/4

Point bumper winner at second attempt in April. Disappointing favourite on his Uttoxeter hurdle bow but showed a lot more when second to a promising mare at Ludlow (21.2f). Open to further progress.

Carlow Farmer^t¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 105| D

20/1

Very patchy profile. Fair form when placed on 3 of his 6 starts over hurdles, though was pulled up on his other 3. Back in this sphere after also failing to complete over fences last 3 starts.

Form: P3PP-UP

Dedanser³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr

7/2

Placed on second start in Irish points and ran to a fair level when third in a 2m4f novice at Carlisle on NH debut 31 days ago, staying on. Should benefit from this longer trip, so solid contender.

Form: F3-3

Fanamix²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Ben Jones| T: Miss R Curtis| D

14/1

Dual winning pointer who was pulled up in a maiden hunter for Denis Paul Murphy in December, but ran a lot better when third in a 2m4f maiden hurdle at Ffos Las 10 months on. Up in trip.

Form: 6/711P-3

Here Comes The Man³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Craig Nichol| T: R Dobbin| D

13/2

Big-money buy following sole point win. Failed to meet expectations in a bumper at Ayr in May and didn't fare much better sent hurdling at Carlisle 31 days ago. Up in trip and improvement required.

Form: 1-66

Ned Tanner³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: C O'Farrell| T: N W Alexander

5/1

Shaped like a stayer in a pair of bumpers and did so again upped in trip when fourth on 2m4f Carlisle hurdle bow 31 days ago, keeping on well run-in. Will stay further and entitled to progress.

Form: 3-44

Readysteadybeau¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: S Mulqueen| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 107

7/1

Shaped like a stayer when in the frame both bumper starts and has done the same in 2 runs over hurdles, staying on again run-in when fourth at Ayr (20.4f) 15 days ago. Step up to 3m promises to suit.

Form: 42-24

Ultra Viers^p1,t1²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill

11/1

Boasts a good pedigree but showed only modest form in Irish bumpers and jumped none too fluently when well held on hurdle/stable bow at Lingfield. Up in trip in first-time cheekpieces/tongue strap.

Form: 30/56-6

Forecasts

Another Brown Bear (9/4), Dedanser (7/2), Ned Tanner (5/1), Here Comes The Man (13/2), Readysteadybeau (7/1), Ultra Viers (11/1), Fanamix (14/1), Carlow Farmer (20/1), Mr Palm (100/1)

An open-looking maiden which can go to DEDANSER, who is taken to build on the promise of his Carlisle hurdling bow up in trip. Another Brown Bear is a good looker who showed much more of what he's about when second to a promising mare at Ludlow last month and can progress further, while Readysteadybeau is another who promises to be well suited by the longer trip.
