Risk And Roll¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: H J Evans| OR: 129| D

13/2

Scored on his second start for new yard at Huntingdon in January and in good form since, resuming with second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Newbury (24.2f) 17 days ago. Needs considering.

Form: 41D53-2

Jepeck²⁴⁶

Age: 13| Weight: 11-13| J: Ben Godfrey⁽³⁾| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 128| D

16/1

Still a useful hurdler despite his veteran status, scoring at Wincanton in January and solid efforts to make the frame after. Can't be ruled out on his seasonal return.

Form: 713224-

Del La Mar Rocket²¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Luca Morgan⁽³⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 124

9/2

Caused an upset in maiden at Ffos Las (21.9f) in February but made mistakes when beating only one in listed hurdle at Perth (23.9f) 7 months ago. No surprise to see him bounce back on handicap debut though with his yard going well.

Form: P/48125-

Eyeofthescorpion^p³⁵⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 119| BF

4/1

Has proved unreliable and he looked none too keen after the last flight when third in handicap hurdle at Newbury (24.2f) when last seen out 11 months ago. Weighted to go well though if resurgent after his absence.

Form: 2/12423-

The Changing Man²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 109

10/11

Returned with a career-best win in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f) 28 days ago. Up 7 lb but he still rates a player now back up in trip.

Form: 77551-1

Forecasts

The Changing Man (10/11), Bobo Mac (3/1), Eyeofthescorpion (4/1), Del La Mar Rocket (9/2), Risk And Roll (13/2), Jepeck (16/1)

Veteran BOBO MAC got back to winning ways in some style at Chepstow only two ago and looks the way to go given he escapes a penalty for that conditional jockeys' success. The Changing Man looked an improved model when scoring at Ffos Las on his return and is feared most now back over a longer trip, while Eyeofthescorpion has an absence to overcome but hails from a stable going well so can't be discounted along with handicap-debutant Del La Mar Rocket.
