14/1
Clear of the remainder with a progressive type (who won again since) at Ffos Las in August and has landed a novice hurdle since. Failed to see things out at Newbury when last seen on the level but he's fancied to be in the mix provided he's ready to roll.

8/1
C&D winner. 5 lengths fifth of 7 to Alkhattaaf in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 5/1) 25 days ago, no extra final 1f but not unduly punished. Merits consideration now 2 lb below his last winning mark.

6/4
Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 6/1) 25 days ago, quickening to lead around 2f out and just kept up to work. Just 3 lb higher here and he should be bang there.

Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. Last of 4 in handicap at this course (16f, good to firm, 7/2) 25 days ago. Back down in trip. Others make more appeal.

16/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 84 days ago, slowly away. Blinkers back on. Others more persuasive.

Got off the mark for the season upped in trip when winning 12-runner handicap (10/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good) 12 days ago, keeping on gamely. 3 lb higher and every chance he will feature if in the same mood.

Twenty four runs since last win in 2020. Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 7/2) 14 days ago, going in snatches. Step back up in trip looks the way to go so not discounted.

Forecasts

Alkhattaaf (6/4), Perfect Myth (7/2), Boy George (7/1), Gold Standard (8/1), Ascot Day (8/1), Too Shy Shy (11/1), Flammarion (14/1), King Charles (22/1), Scarlet Ruby (40/1), Bryanwood (50/1)

Verdict

It's fair to say things haven't gone as planned for FLAMMARION over hurdles, but having finished runner-up from this mark at Ffos Las last summer, David Pipe's charge gets the tentative nod to make a winning return to action reverting back to the level. Last-time-out winners Alkhattaaf and Boy George can chase him home in that order.

  1. Flammarion14/1
  2. Alkhattaaf6/4
  3. Boy George7/1
