Brown Monday¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Adrian Heskin| T: J J Hanlon

12/1

Mid-field in Ayr bumper 16 days ago, having previously been pulled up both starts in points. Likely better for that run but would need to take a sizeable step forward to make winning start over hurdles.

Form: PP-6

Goleirihem¹⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: David England| T: O Murphy| OR: 109

11/10

Placed in Irish points and showed clear ability on 2 of his 3 starts over hurdles last season, the form of his Huntingdon sixth reading well. Will be suited by this step up in trip and remains with potential.

Let Me Be¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 106

15/8

Dual-bumper winner back in 2019. Prolific on the level more recently but shaped as if amiss back hurdling for new stable in 19f Warwick handicap in April. Better effort at Huntingdon since and will benefit from a return to 2½m+.

Form: 1548/P-4

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| BF

4/1

Won first 2 starts in bumpers (for S. Curling on debut). Creditable fifth in Cheltenham listed event on 2021/22 return, but has disappointed both starts over hurdles, including down in class at Sedgefield last week. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.
