Off time: 17:10 | Winning time: 6m 37.31s

Defi D'Oudairies^p,t²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Philip Armson⁽⁵⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 107

11/1

Multiple chase winner in France but disappointing in that sphere on both starts for current stable. Has a lower mark over hurdles.

Form: 21-1176

Kabrit^h¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Nick Scholfield| T: A Ralph| OR: 106

4/1

Improved for the switch to fences last summer, winning a couple of handicaps. Shaped well when second in handicap at hurdle at Worcester 18 days ago and looks feasibly treated in this sphere.

Form: 1425-32

Get The Appeal^b1,t¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-13| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 106

7/1

Patchy form over hurdles last season and both outings this term (fences on first occasion) have been poor. Blinkered for the first time, now.

Form: 7P33-P7

Oxwich Bay^p³¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr Lewis Gordon⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 104| C

11/2

Bang in form with a win and 2 seconds over fences this spring, then back on track when runner-up over hurdles at Ffos Las a month ago. Cheekpieces returned, and he's well treated in this sphere.

Form: P21-242

From The Heart^b,t¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 104

11/1

Ungenuine type who is a better chaser on balance and ran poorly in this sphere at Stratford 19 days ago. Others preferred.

Form: 74-2435

Our Three Sons^p¹⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 11-4| J: Page Fuller| T: Charlotte Fuller| OR: 97

13/8

Snapped a long losing run at Plumpton in May and has held form since, fourth of 11 at this course last time. Likely to give another good account if he gets the longer trip.

Form: U/7-13F4

City Flame^p²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: J E Moore| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 86

15/2

Off the mark in 23f Utoxeter handicap hurdle in May 2021 and shaped as if retaining ability at Southwell on her only start since 20 days ago. Not completely ruled out.

Form: 0965/1-3

Forecasts

Our Three Sons (13/8), Kabrit (4/1), Oxwich Bay (11/2), Get The Appeal (7/1), City Flame (15/2), Defi D'Oudairies (11/1), From The Heart (11/1)

KABRIT arrives on the back of a solid showing over hurdles and is potentially well handicapped on chasing form, so he takes preference over Oxwich Bay, who ran quite well at Ffos Las a month ago. Our Three Sons is another one to consider in an open race.
