Cazoo Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 17:17 | Winning time: 4m 50.50s

Manor Park^t¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Thomas Doggrell⁽⁷⁾| T: B Barr| OR: 116| C

14/1

Course winner. 12/1, creditable second of 5 in handicap at Newton Abbot (17f, good to firm) 14 days ago.

Form: 4-25242

Krypton Gold⁷⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds| OR: 114

9/1

Ended last season with ready win at Ascot in March and recorded creditable efforts at Aintree and Newton Abbot off this mark in midsummer. Likely to be in the shake-up if returning from an 11-week break in similar form.

Form: 4621-32

Every Breakin Wave^p,t²⁴

Age: 12| Weight: 11-9| J: Ben Godfrey⁽³⁾| T: Claire Hitch| OR: 111

40/1

Maiden/novice hurdle winner in summer 2021 but no impact in a pair of Newton Abbot handicaps since returning to action. Can only be watched for now.

Form: 2112-P6

Presenting Pete²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽⁵⁾| T: J Mackie| OR: 110| BF| D

3/1

Made a very bright start for new yard, landing back-to-back Southwell handicaps in June/July. Another fine effort when going down by only a neck at Sedgefield last time. Considered off the same mark.

Form: 52-1132

Red Vision^t1²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 108| BF

10/3

Winner of a pair of novice hurdles in March. Off 4 months, beaten 22 lengths into second in 2m Bangor handicap on reappearance but might be sharper with the run behind him. Up in trip. Also tongue tied first time.

Form: 73115-2

Just Call Me Al^t¹⁵⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-6| J: Sean Quinlan| T: G Boanas| OR: 108| D

33/1

Won 3 times at Sedgefield (2 hurdle, 1 chase) last season. Ended that campaign on a low note but no surprise were he to bounce back after a break.

Form: 22143P-

Buttsbury Lady⁴⁹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 105| BF| C

13/2

Bumper winner. Absent since finishing second in a 19.5f Huntingdon handicap in May 2021 but returns off a 4 lb lower mark and much respected for top stable, particularly if the betting vibes are strong.

Form: 54436/2-

George Bancroft^p⁹²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 106WS

6/1

Flat winner who made a successful start over hurdles at Fontwell last autumn. Hasn't progressed as might have been hoped since but it's possible a breathing operation since last seen in June will have helped. One to note in the betting.

Form: 12UP3-2

Seaborough¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: James Davies| T: D Shaw| OR: 84

5/1

Winless since 2019. Has run well to be third on his last 3 starts but he's 6 lb out of the handicap so it's likely that wait for a next win will go on.

Form: 67-6333

Translink²⁷

Forecasts

Presenting Pete (3/1), Red Vision (10/3), Seaborough (5/1), Translink (5/1), George Bancroft (6/1), Buttsbury Lady (13/2), Krypton Gold (9/1), Dev Of Tara (12/1), Manor Park (14/1), Just Call Me Al (33/1), Every Breakin Wave (40/1)

It might be worth siding with the returning BUTTSBURY LADY, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting speak in her favour. Progressive pair Translink and Presenting Pete are obvious threats, while Dev of Tara is one to keep an eye on in the betting on this handicap debut for new trainer Olly Murphy.
