17/2

Dual Plumpton winner last term. Off 10 months, shaped as if better for the run when seventh of 15 on Fontwell return 35 days ago. Respected with that under his belt.

5/2

Fair winner on Flat and over hurdles. Signs of retaining ability on second start back from an absence and the cheekpieces he's worn for all previous British wins now return. Interesting.

Form: 0313/P5

Kilbrew Boy^p⁴⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr Charlie Case⁽⁷⁾| T: B I Case| OR: 94

12/1

Wincanton chase winner last term but operating below his best over hurdles and fences in recent starts. Has dropped to a good mark but need to see more before lending support.

Form: 9-36446

World Trip^b,t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Fergus Gregory| T: O Murphy| OR: 90

9/2

Did job in good style when opening account upped to 3m at Perth last spring. Mostly respectable efforts in defeat this term, finishing 9 lengths second at Lingfield latest. Should be in mix again.

Form: 1-26P52

Locallink^p1,t²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: James Best| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 86

13/2

Showed the benefit of a wind operation/first-time tongue tie when scoring on handicap debut last spring but he hasn't reproduced that in 3 runs this term. Has cheekpieces added to tongue tie now.

Form: 861-696

Queen Of Fame^b¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Charlie Hammond| T: N Kent| OR: 80

4/1

Modest maiden handicap hurdler who ran her best race for this yard when third of 12 in 25f Carlisle handicap last month. That gives her something to build on.

Form: 03-5P03

True Thoughts^t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: G Sheehan| T: Mrs L J Young| OR: 75

6/1

Placed twice this term and probably worth ignoring his latest run in a big field at Wincanton last time as he ended up too far back.

Form: 9/5-3539

It's perhaps worth taking a chance on the potentially well-treated AGE OF WISDOM now that his usual cheekpieces return for the first time this term. World Trip is respected on the back of her Lingfield second last month, while Midnight Glance is also capable of playing a part if bouncing back to form with his reappearance run behind him.
