Jack Devine^v⁵³⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 12-2| J: Edward Austin⁽⁵⁾| T: R Dobbin| OR: 122| D

28/1

Useful sort who won 3 staying handicap hurdles in 2018. Not seen for 17 months but given a chance in the weights and yard can ready one after a long absence. Worth keeping on side.

Run For Pat²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-13| J: S Bowen| T: G Elliott| OR: 119

10/3

Promise in his maiden hurdles and just the type to come into his own now handicapping up in trip. Runners from yard always to be feared here.

Form: 3/536-

All About Joe⁸²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: D R Fox| T: A B Hamilton| OR: 118

28/1

Fair maiden hurdler in Ireland at up to this trip. Suspect others may prove better treated now starting out in Britain for new yard.

Form: 875/205-

Court Dreaming^p¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 110| D

11/1

Back to form at Carlisle (25f) of late under this rider, although no excuses when second off this mark latest. Will need more to prevail here.

Form: 2P4812-

Stoney Rover⁷⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: Ryan Mania| T: A M Thomson| OR: 109| D

3/1

Off the mark for this yard when landing a 15-runner handicap at Newcastle in January. Bled over C&D last time but he holds claims if that issue doesn't repeat.

Form: 4U/5214-

Rapid Flight¹²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Charlotte Jones⁽⁵⁾| T: James Moffatt| OR: 107

3/1

Southwell maiden hurdle winner a year ago. Showed a bit over fences in his final runs for Nicky Henderson and probably not on a bad mark back in this sphere for good new yard.

Form: F10633-

Jessiemac^t³²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-9| J: Thomas Willmott⁽³⁾| T: I A Duncan| OR: 101| CD

3/1

Thorough stayer who needed every yard at score at Catterick (25f) in January. Struggled in tough mares' race here last month but pretty good record at Ayr otherwise and this is easier.

Forecasts

Stoney Rover (3/1), Jessiemac (3/1), Rapid Flight (3/1), Run For Pat (10/3), Court Dreaming (11/1), Jack Devine (28/1), All About Joe (28/1)

RUN FOR PAT could take off now handicapping and he's selected to get off the mark. Jack Devine is worth a look back from a long absence, while Jessiemac returns to more suitable grade and could figure.
