6/1
Fair Flat winner who was on the up in this sphere before an excusable showing at Newton Abbot last time. Likely to resume progress and looks the one to beat.

12/1
Fair performer on the Flat but has yet to fully convince over hurdles. Off 84 days since a poor display at Stratford and others make more appeal.

14/1
Bumper winner who has offered a glimmer of promise over hurdles to date but was pulled up on his handicap debut 7 months ago. Something to prove.

40/1
Modest hurdler/chaser who lost his way for Anthony Honeyball and makes limited appeal starting out for a new yard.

4/1
C&D winner. Good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good to soft, 11/1) 16 days ago. Smooth-traveller who boasts solid claims again.

7/1
Down the field in bumpers and has fared little better over hurdles. Has the potential to do better now handicapping, so worth monitoring in the betting.

9/4
Poor maiden handicap hurdler, but goes well at this track and arrives on the back of a good second over C&D. Not discounted.

6-y-o mare who ran one of her better races (visored) back from 7 months off when second in 5-runner Uttoxeter seller but failed to back it up at Southwell next time. Off 3 months since.

No impact as yet over hurdles although some encouragement to be gleaned from her seventh over C&D 19 days ago. Type to do better over further.

Forecasts

Encashment (9/4), Good Impression (4/1), Castle Quarter (6/1), Blue Shark (7/1), Luna Dora (10/1), Chef De Troupe (11/1), James Park Woods (12/1), Colonial Empire (14/1), Lady P (22/1), Mister Allegro (40/1)

Verdict

CASTLE QUARTER shaped as if still in form last time and he'd been knocking on the door prior to that, so he gets the marginal vote over Encashment and Good Impression in a weak race. Market support for handicap debutant Blue Shark would be noteworthy.
