Bounced back from a couple of below-par displays when belatedly opening account in 17.2f handicap at Carlisle in October. Nothing wrong with subsequent second at Musselburgh but he's up further 4 lb.
|
Bumper winner who produces his most encouraging effort yet over hurdles in first-time cheekpieces when third at Limerick on handicap debut in May. Of interest on return to action.
|
Bumper winner who looks a work in progress over hurdles but he is progressive, tongue tied when third over this C&D 3 weeks ago. Opening mark could be lenient.
|
Laid a solid platform for handicaps with a brace of fourth-place finishes at this venue in recent weeks. Opening mark looks fair.
|
Fair form in bumpers in 2018/19 and returned (after a wind op) with a career best effort over hurdles when third at Carlisle in October. 2 lb rise very fair if he's in the same form.

Forecasts
Douglas Talking (5/2), Fame Valley (11/4), Cellar Vie (7/2), Universal Folly (4/1), Well Planted (7/1), Kinnegad Lad (8/1)
A sextet to view positively on the whole with the vote going to DOUGLAS TALKING, who displayed progressive form in his qualifying runs and he has been allotted a very fair opening mark. Cellar Vie has to be of interest on the back of his Carlisle run, while Kinnegad Lad is open to plenty of improvement.
