Charlie Uberalles²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: C O'Farrell| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer

11/2

Placed in Irish points and having had a wind op. he ran to a fair level when second on Rules debut in a novice at Kelso 3 weeks ago. Should be in the mix.

Our Sam²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: William Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: James Moffatt

16/1

Some promise in bumpers and having unseated rider on hurdles debut, he got back on track when third at Hexham 3 weeks ago. Needs to build on that.

Form: 605U-3

Perryville⁸²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Alex Edwards⁽³⁾| T: Mrs M Rowley| OR: 110

6/1

Surpassed Irish form when third of 6 for new yard at Hereford in January. Not quite at the same level at Southwell but he's unexposed and ought to be a factor at his level.

5/1

Won a point and promising start under Rules when third in a bumper at Ayr 3 weeks ago. Significantly up in trip and fitted with headgear now hurdling.

Forecasts

Ottoman Style (10/11), Zumbi (5/1), Charlie Uberalles (11/2), Perryville (6/1), Licklighter (8/1), Our Sam (16/1), Not Long Now (66/1), Ten Gs (80/1)

LICKLIGHTER is better known as a chaser but he's still capable of producing form good enough to win at this level over hurdles so it's worth siding that this veteran will be fully fit on this reappearance. Ottoman Style won in Ireland last time and is a big threat under a penalty, with Perryville also of interest.
