Havelock Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 12:30 | Winning time: 6m 46.10s

Macho Mover^p,t²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Lewis Stones⁽⁶⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 113| CD

10/3

Relished the longer trip and confirmed his bright start for Olly Murphy when landing a C&D handicap at the start of the month. Had a bit to spare, so looks capable of going in again.

Form: F0-1221

Storm Lorenzo^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: R Menzies| OR: 108

5/1

Ex-Irish gelding who has showed fair form over hurdles for his current yard. Creditable fourth to Macho Mover over C&D last time, but no obvious reason to think he can turn the tables.

Form: 8U-2364

Charm Offensive²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Bruce Lynn⁽³⁾| T: N W Alexander| OR: 108| BF

13/2

Getting better with experience and seemed unsuited by a speed test when third over 20f in novice at Hexham last time, so every chance she can take another step forward back up in trip.

Form: 4422-23

Lady Bowes²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Charlotte Jones| T: James Moffatt| OR: 105

7/2

Fair bumper winner who left hurdling debut well behind when landing a 2½m Hexham novice last December. Good third at the same course last time, but she's unproven over this far.

Form: 4/141-63

Stolen Money⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Theo Gillard| T: D W Whillans| OR: 103

5/1

Lightly-raced 6-y-o who returned with an improved showing to score in determined style at Carlisle 52 days ago. That form has been boosted since, and he looks all stamina, so strong claims.

Form: 7/P242-1

Storm Tiger²²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Fergus Gregory| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 99

9/2

Successful on sole outing in points and stepped up on previous hurdling efforts when fourth at Hexham last time. Could do better still up in trip, so hard to discount.

Form: 1/7-094

Forecasts

Macho Mover (10/3), Lady Bowes (7/2), Storm Tiger (9/2), Stolen Money (5/1), Storm Lorenzo (5/1), Charm Offensive (13/2), For Jim (14/1)

MACHO MOVER is going the right way and overcame quite a bad mistake to score with something in hand over C&D last time, so he's fancied to defy a small rise. Reappearance winner Stolen Money looks set to give it his all once again, so he's feared most, while Charm Offensive is open to improvement back up in trip.
