Hats Off To Larry²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Dylan Johnston⁽⁷⁾| T: D Brooke| OR: 97| D

40/1

Revitalised by new yard to score at Hexham in June and, while he hasn't managed to build on that, he might come on for his latest run at the same track.

Form: 676-167

Lucky Lover Boy^p,t²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Fergus Gillard| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 96| CD

4/1

Scored over C&D in August. 8/1, good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, good) 24 days ago. Remains well treated and another bold showing is on the cards

Form: 424612

Oakmont³¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Charlotte Jones| T: James Moffatt| OR: 95| D

14/1

Not at best so far this term but is at least back to an appealing mark and there was a glimmer of encouragement when third at Cartmel a month ago.

Form: 553-4F3

Drumfire²⁹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-11| J: D B Hurst⁽⁸⁾| T: S Corbett| OR: 96

20/1

Just modest form at best over hurdles last Autumn, and an improved showing back from 9 months off is quite a big ask.

Form: 246-

Lisloran²⁰⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Bruce Lynn| T: R Ross| OR: 92

100/1

Maiden Irish pointer who hasn't shown a great deal over hurdles to this point but might do better switched to handicaps after 6 months off.

Form: P/53676-

Major Snugfit^t,v⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Peter Coleman⁽⁸⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 92| BF| CD

9/4

C&D winner who scored at Hexham in June and was back in form when third here in August. Solid showing on the Flat since, so he's expected to give a good account.

Form: 321753

My Little Toni^t²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Theo Gillard⁽³⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 94| C

11/1

Hasn't had much racing over hurdles and didn't need to improve to comfortably open her account in a 3-runner novice at this course 26 days ago. More to come back in handicap company.

Form: 643621

Jack Yeats^p²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: W Coltherd| OR: 87

13/2

Maiden over hurdles but placed on his last couple of outings in this sphere and wasn't disgraced on the Flat last time. One to consider.

Form: 644-723

Myburg¹³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Thomas Willmott⁽³⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 86| CD

25/1

Progressive from low base over timber and continued that theme to make a winning chase debut at this course in April. Pulled up at Hexham next time but worthy of respect back hurdling after 4 months off.

Form: 00141-P

Rains Of Castamere^t⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Tom Midgley| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 85

14/1

Four-time winner on the level, but not at the top of his game in that sphere and hurdles efforts hardly set the pulse racing.

Form: 7/4-46

Madeeh^t⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 82

22/1

Fairly useful handicapper on the Flat but hurdling efforts have generally been uninspiring, jumping with little fluency when seventh at Stratford last time.

Form: 6U-257

Charle Brune^p¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: K Brogan| T: N Mechie| OR: 81

7/1

Placed on a couple of occasions over hurdles in the summer, and has shaped as if still in form the last twice (chasing debut first occasion). Cheekpieces on now.

Form: F35356

Silkstone^p⁶³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: Emma Smith-Chaston| T: D Brooke| OR: 76

16/1

Poor maiden hurdler who wasn't discredited when fourth of 5 at Perth a couple of months ago. Others make more appeal, though.

Form: 54-8354

African Sun^p⁶³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Cillin Leonard| T: Joanne Thomason-Murphy| OR: 76

28/1

Poor hurdler who had the run of the race when off the mark at Uttoxeter in July and failed to back it up at Worcester a couple of months ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 08-P417

Forecasts

Major Snugfit (9/4), Lucky Lover Boy (4/1), Jack Yeats (13/2), Charle Brune (7/1), My Little Toni (11/1), Oakmont (14/1), Rains Of Castamere (14/1), Silkstone (16/1), Drumfire (20/1), Madeeh (22/1), Myburg (25/1), African Sun (28/1), Hats Off To Larry (40/1), Lisloran (100/1)

LUCKY LOVER BOY backed up his C&D win with a good effort at Stratford last time and he still looks well handicapped on old form, so he takes marginal preference over the less-exposed My Little Toni. Major Snugfit can also have a say.
