11/4
Flat winner who improved when opening his hurdles account under a positive ride from Becky Smith at Sedgefield (27f, good) three weeks ago. 4 lb rise tolerable and another bold show anticipated.

11/8
Seven-race maiden who has not helped himself by racing freely on his last two starts (both at Warwick). However, placed twice in handicaps off higher marks than this in February/March and leading claims in this uncompetitive affair.

9/1
Fair maiden hurdlerwho posted one of his better efforts when third of 13 at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good) in August 2020. Absent since, though, so his wellbeing has to be taken on trust.

17/2
Runner-up on bumper debut last May (for Ben Pauling), but hasn't shown much over hurdles for this yard and finished well adrift of Balkotic at Sedgefield last time.

Has offered little in five starts over hurdles for current yard and likely to come up short once again, unless this step up in trip happens to prompt improvement.

Forecasts

Money Spinner (11/8), Balkotic (11/4), Robeam (13/2), Landacre Bridge (17/2), Simply Mani (9/1), Magellan (11/1)

Verdict

BALKOTIC admittedly had the run of things when making virtually all the running at Sedgefield, but it was an improved display whichever way you look at it and a 4 lb rise probably won't be enough to prevent him from following up. Money Spinner is the clear main danger given that Simply Mani is returning from a 21-month absence.
