9/4

Smart hurdler who has made a good start over fences this summer, again dominant when landing small-field Newton Abbot novice (21.4f) last month. Goes handicapping now and looks the one to beat in bid to land the 5-timer.

9/2

Dual hurdles winner who landed 3 handicap chases on the bounce earlier this year, most recently a 4-runner affair at Uttoxeter (3m, good) in May. Picked up where she left off when beating a subsequent winner in 3-runner novice at Worcester on return but looks high enough in weights now.

Form: 361-111

Forecasts

Pull Again Green (2/1), Hang In There (9/4), Found On (9/2), Champagne Gold (11/2), Tullybeg (7/1)

HANG IN THERE has looked a natural over fences, again jumping well from the front when completing the 4-timer at Newton Abbot, and his opening mark in this sphere looks on the lenient side. Tullybeg also goes handicapping and rates the main threat after his Wexford win.
