ABF The Soldiers Charity Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 13:37 | Winning time: 4m 24.84s

Dicey Rielly¹¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 100

9/1

Well held on Uttoxeter handicap debut in March but had reached the frame in mares' novices prior to that and returns from a break with her yard among the winners.

Form: 834348-

Zamond^b⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 97| D

11/4

Ex-Irish winner who was back in form with runner-up efforts at Fakenham and Uttoxeter in the spring. Likely to be in the shake-up again.

Form: U3742-2

Lucky Lover Boy^b,t¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Toby Wynne⁽⁷⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 95| D

14/1

Arrives on a losing run. Better when second at Huntingdon last month but not in the same form when fourth at Worcester since. Suspicion that wait for a win will go on a bit longer.

Form: 049-424

Check My Pulse^v1⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Nathan Moscrop| T: R Menzies| OR: 95

9/1

Fair 2m hurdle winner in summer 2020 but has drawn a blank over hurdles and fences since, including a disappointing last of 8 back over timber at Uttoxeter last time. First-time visor replaces cheekpieces.

Form: 23P4-38

Pointed And Sharp²

Age: 10| Weight: 10-13| J: Theo Gillard⁽³⁾| T: Mark Gillard| OR: 85

66/1

Triple chase winner in 2019 but drawn a blank since. Remains to be seen if a return to hurdling makes any difference.

Form: 5P-P57P

Calliope^b²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: C O'Farrell| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 82| BF| C| D

3/1

Hasn't looked the force she was last year but her mark reflects that and not beaten far here the last twice, behind Simply Red on Saturday.

Form: 8-45733

Silkstone^p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Henry Brooke| T: D Brooke| OR: 77

11/1

Has been running respectably over hurdles since joining this yard but he's now an 18-race maiden in this sphere and there's a suspicion he'll find the odd one too strong again.

Form: 3454-83

Baraboy^p⁴⁴

Age: 12| Weight: 10-5| J: Craig Nichol| T: F P Murtagh| OR: 77| CD

14/1

Inconsistent type nowadays but proved up to capitalising on his reduced mark at Hexham (2m) 44 days ago, battling well. Ought to remain competitive after a 3 lb rise.

Form: 5278-41

Coeur Aimant^p¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: B Butterworth| OR: 73

25/1

Modest maiden hurdler who failed to make a significant impact in the first half of last season and fared no better on his Uttoxeter reappearance 13 days ago.

Form: 0/5P55-0

The Resdev Way¹¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Miss Becky Smith| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 72| D

5/1

Third over hurdles at Huntingdon in June and placed on the Flat since. No surprise were he to be in the shake-up again, particularly with his stable among the winners.

Form: P35/6-53

That's Your Lottie^h,t²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: S Mulqueen| T: K Scott| OR: 68

22/1

Exposed as a poor maiden jumper and hasn't been showing enough recently to suggest that a first success is likely to arrive now.

Form: 44P-454

That's My Dubai⁹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Emma Smith-Chaston⁽⁵⁾| T: J K Hunter| OR: 67

150/1

Catterick winner for Rebecca Menzies in January 2020 but offered very little for this yard last season.

Forecasts

Zamond (11/4), Calliope (3/1), Jackhammer (10/3), Simply Red (7/2), The Resdev Way (5/1), Dicey Rielly (9/1), Check My Pulse (9/1), Silkstone (11/1), Lucky Lover Boy (14/1), Baraboy (14/1), That's Your Lottie (22/1), Coeur Aimant (25/1), Pointed And Sharp (66/1), That's My Dubai (150/1)

The form of JACKHAMMER's second Perth win of the spring has worked out really well so a further 8 lb rise may not prevent him making it 3 wins in a row in this sphere. Donald McCain's Zamond and Hexham scorer Baraboy head the dangers.
