Awesomedude^t¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 12-1| J: Alice Stevens⁽⁵⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 116

8/1

Promising individual who opened account over timber when taking 8-runner novice at Huntingdon in May. Not in the same form at Stratford next time but it's still early days.

Form: 52-14

Little Brother²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mrs Izzie Hill⁽⁷⁾| T: J Nash| OR: 112

22/1

Modest hurdler who arrives on the back of a creditable Flat effort at Fairyhouse. BHA handicapper has taken no chances, though.

Form: 75559-7

Astroman^b1²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Miss Becky Smith| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 110

10/1

Fair winner on the Flat (stays 1½m) who has matched that form over hurdles. Shaped as if in form back from a break on the level recently and blinkers now applied.

Form: 5/22326-

Go Fox²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Mrs Jo Supple⁽³⁾| T: N B King| OR: 107

16/1

Flat winner who opened his account in this sphere at Perth in September. Only fourth in AW Flat handicap on recent first outing for new stable and mark doesn't look all that lenient.

Form: 9P/3176-

Mordred^h¹²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Miss Gina Andrews| T: M F Harris| OR: 97

9/4

Fairly useful on Flat performer (scored twice in St Moritz earlier this year) and is relatively unexposed in this sphere, particularly for current stable. More than capable of defying a mark of 97 if on his game.

Form: 2354-

Lady Babs^p⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Fern O'Brien⁽⁵⁾| T: A Crook| OR: 95| CD

10/3

Scored twice here last summer and, despite going in snatches, recorded a solid effort when runner-up over C&D last time. Primed for a big run here.

Form: 0/1412-2

Pateen^v²³

Age: 10| Weight: 10-6| J: Miss J I Bedi⁽⁷⁾| T: J Bedi| OR: 93| CD

7/2

Dual winner last summer, including this race, and gave clear signs of a revival when fourth at Aintree last time. Makes plenty of appeal from a lenient mark with visor refitted.

Form: 553-084

Henri Le Bon^b⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: Miss Jess Stewart⁽⁷⁾| T: Kerry Lee| OR: 90

9/1

Arrives below par, failing to beat a rival in a 5-runner event at Ffos Las 48 days ago. Given another chance by the handicapper, so not completely dismissed.

Form: P5397-5

Fast Deal⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Miss K Adams⁽⁷⁾| T: M C Chapman| OR: 66

150/1

Poor maiden. Firmly up against it from out of the weights.

Form: 6465-8P

Forecasts

Mordred (9/4), Lady Babs (10/3), Pateen (7/2), Awesomedude (8/1), Henri Le Bon (9/1), Astroman (10/1), Go Fox (16/1), Little Brother (22/1), Fast Deal (150/1)

MORDRED is potentially thrown in on Flat form and hasn't had many goes in this sphere, so he's a confident choice with the assistance of Gina Andrews a major plus in a race of this nature. Pateen landed this off a 1-lb higher mark last year and shaped as if turning a corner when fourth at Aintree last time, so he also warrants consideration along with Lady Babs.
