Useful Flat performer (stays 1¼m) and perfect start over hurdles when landing 5-runner maiden here (15.2f) in October, with plenty in hand. Fancied to be in the mix despite conceding weight all round.

Runner-up on first of 2 starts in bumpers but he may be one for handicaps in this sphere judged on pair of exploits in maiden/novice hurdles in recent months.

Jet Away gelding who made frame on final outing in points back in May but showed nothing on Rules/hurdles bow at Chepstow (19.5f) in November. Can only be watched now fitted with a hood.

Signed off last season with a Chepstow bumper win and built on hurdles debut effort when sixth in big field Lingfield novice (2m) last month. Still, another who may do better in handicaps.

Sageburg gelding who hasn't gone without promise in trio of bumpers spread over 8 months, fourth at Uttoxeter (15.7f) last month. Interesting what the market makes of him now hurdling.

Modest form in bumpers but sent ff at 50/1 got no further than the fourth on hurdles debut at Uttoxeter (15.7f) earlier this month. This will reveal more but best watched.

£45,000 5-y-o who got off mark in Irish points at second attempt in May. Well backed, failed to make an impact in a Chepstow maiden on hurdles bow recently but no surprise to see him do better.

Geordieland gelding. Dam (h92) maiden hurdler. 50/1, offered little short-term encouragement when last of 10 in an Ascot bumper in November. Passed over on hurdles debut.

£42,000 3-y-o, Fame And Glory gelding who got away with the test of speed when taking a 15f bumper here on debut in November. Bred to stay well and interesting upped in trip for handicap debut.

Arvico gelding. Brother to useful hurdler The Widdow Maker. Showed a bit in a bumper/novice hurdle 7 months apart and he's the type to do better, particularly in handicaps.

Notched sixth success between the flags in May but fairly low-key start over hurdles in pair of novice/maiden events in recent weeks. Another who is expected to do better in handicaps.

Useful dual bumper winner who crucially jumped better when off the mark in a mares' novice here 12 days ago, making all and in command some way out. Leading claims with more to come.

€25,000 3-y-o, Nom De D'la gelding. Fell on hurdles bow at Taunton (16.5f) in March but offered a little encouragement when midfield in a big-field Exeter novice last month. Entitled to do better.

Green when well beaten in a Ffos Las bumper in May and well held on hurdles debut at Chepstow on return 10 days ago. Blinkers enlisted now.

Doyen gelding. Easy winner of sole start in points and offered something to work on when fifth behind Norton Hill in a 15f bumper here last month. Type to make his mark over jumps.

Forecasts

Rainyday Woman (1/2), Norton Hill (3/1), Exmoor Express (8/1), Hiway One O Three (18/1), Mascat (28/1), Takoda (28/1), Crystal Moon (33/1), Raddon Top (50/1), Iceburgh Bay (50/1), Per Vino Veritas (50/1), Rock Of Star (80/1), Hors Guard (125/1), Farceur De Maulne (150/1), Just Stardust (150/1), Stoke Pero (150/1), Designer Jet (150/1)

Verdict

A useful, dual winner in bumpers, RAINYDAY WOMAN showed the benefit of her hurdles debut when running out a convincing winner of a mares' novice over shorter here 12 days ago and she's fancied to follow up with progress expected. Norton Hill, on hurdles bow, and Mascat are others fancied to feature.
