10/3
Lightly-raced winner in points who ran to a fair level when fourth in a Southwell bumper last month. Just modest form in a couple of starts over hurdles so far and should do better now handicapping.

Third at Taunton easily the pick of his 3 bumper runs and just modest form at best over timber so far. Should make more of an impact moving into handicaps.

16/1
Capable performer in Ireland and off the mark at fourth attempt for present yard at Sedgefield (21.2f, good to soft) last April. Little impact on both starts since though, latest after 9 months off.

9/4
Gained breakthrough win at Stratford in May and ran creditably having been easy to back after 9 months off over C&D 13 days ago. That should have blown away the cobwebs so holds leading claims.

Ended last term well out of sorts and similar story on return fitted with first-time cheekpieces 3 weeks ago. Best watched.

Took advantage of sliding mark at Taunton in December and similar form on 3 of next 4 starts, fifth back there 18 days ago. Worth a crack at this longer trip judged on recent exploits so respected.

Forecasts

Always Able (9/4), Our Idic Boy (5/2), Karakoram (11/4), Ballycamus (10/3), Here Hare Here (10/3), Blumen Glory (8/1), Kilganer Queen (16/1), Unblinking (25/1), Carnage (40/1)

Verdict

A tricky finale to solve but KARAKORAM has been mostly consistent for this rider since getting his head in front at Taunton in December and, having dropped back to that winning mark here, Grace Harris' charge earns the vote to notch a third-career success. Our Idic Boy would be an obvious danger if taking up this engagement (declared on Friday), along with Always Able and Blumen Glory.
