7/4
Improved when placed in handicaps at Ludlow (21f) and Taunton (19f) and still looked in form (took strong hold under an amateur) at Ayr last month. Fancied to open his account.

Fair in bumpers but patchy form over jumps and back in this sphere following a break after 2 poor runs over fences. Quick ground should suit and the handicapper has given him a chance.

Has been unable to kick on from an eye-catching hurdling debut, pulled up at Uttoxeter 8 days ago. Questions to answer now, but could be the type to respond well to blinkers.

9/4
Fair hurdler who took a firm step back in the right direction when third at Uttoxeter 8 days ago. Handicapped to win if he can build on that encouragement, so warrants strong consideration.

Modest maiden hurdler who has been struggling for form lately, so needs cheekpieces to perk him up.

Maiden hurdler for Alastair Ralph and produced a lacklustre display in a handicap chase on stable debut 3 weeks ago. Others preferred.

Well held in bumpers and yet to feature over hurdles. With a shrewd stable and he's up in trip with cheekpieces applied for this handicap debut (has also been off 172 days), so could prove a different proposition.

Showed ability in bumpers and, while yet to replicate that over hurdles, he might do better now handicapping from a lowly mark.

Maiden who continues to show little over hurdles. Steps up in distance.

Forecasts

Groom D'Oudairies (7/4), You Name Him (9/4), Braganza Bay (13/2), Meechlands Magic (7/1), Akentrick (14/1), Letter At Dawn (16/1), Fantomas (22/1), Tom O'Roughley (33/1), Rose Kar (33/1)

Verdict

GROOM D'OUDAIRIES has been shaping up well and this represents a drop in class, so he's a confident selection to get the better of You Name Him, who hinted at a revival last time. The selection's stablemate, Rose Kar, is worthy of interest if the market speaks in his favour.
