Well served by a strong pace when doubling hurdles tally at Uttoxeter in June but his 2 runs since have been disappointing. Has his first start for 103 days here.

Scored at Fontwell in November but hasn't fired since, although he should find this trip more suitable than the 2m he ran over at Sandown last time.

Really found her feet early last summer, easily winning a Huntingdon handicap and Southwell novice. Player if returning from a break in similar form.

Missed whole of last season and hasn't made much of an impact in 4 starts since returning to action in December. Given a chance by the handicapper, though, and this trainer/jockey combination won the last running of this race.

Well held in a Worcester bumper. Has yet to build on his Exeter hurdle debut run but it would be no surprise to see that change now handicapping.

Fairly useful Flat winner who showed improved form over hurdles when making a successful handicap debut at Plumpton in a first-time visor (retained). Up in trip. Raised 5 lb but retains plenty of handicapping scope on Flat ability.

Forecasts

Sword Beach (11/5), Merry Berry (7/2), Birds Of Prey (4/1), Alrightjack (5/1), Hunting Percival (8/1), Langley Hundred (12/1)

Verdict

SWORD BEACH could easily have more to come over hurdles and is selected to make light of a 5 lb rise for Plumpton. Merry Berry was on the up when last seen and can give Alan King's charge most to think about ahead of Birds of Prey, who has come down a fair way in the handicap.
