Visit attheraces.com Handicap Hurdle

In fine form last month, runner-up at Worcester prior to bagging handicaps at this course and Market Rasen. Kept busy since and right back on her game when finding only an unexposed rival too strong over C&D 10 days ago.

Fair Flat winner and getting his act together over hurdles in handicaps, runner-up the last twice. Should be a big factor at this level with cheekpieces now employed.

Out of sorts for David Pipe to end 2021 but having been sold cheaply, he capitalised on a falling mark for new yard in 7-runner C&D contest last month. Fair fourth at Uttoxeter and probably best to overlook latest Flat run.

Placed on 4 starts before getting off the mark at Market Rasen in May. Not in the same form twice since, albeit he was denied a clear run back from a break 17 days ago. Visor replaces usual cheekpieces.

Trio of heavy defeats for Tim Vaughan in 2020/21 but changed yards and fitted with cheekpieces prior to getting the job sone at Taunton in April 2021. Left Dr Richard Newland cheaply and pulled up for new yard last month.

Limited impact in his qualifying runs but handicaps are more suitable.

Back from a break and cashed in on a career-low mark in gritty fashion at Stratford 12 days ago. 4 lb rise won't prevent bold follow-up bid if he's in the same mood.

Never really going in 18.5f course handicap in May so easy enough to look elsewhere from just out of the weights.
