13/8
Capitalised on much-reduced mark (in first-time blinkers) at Ffos Las in March but failed by a long chalk to back that up when pulled up at Southwell a couple of months later. More encouragement at former course back in June and handicapper has given her a shout on return.

12/1
As expensive to follow as they come, runner-up 3 times for Dr Richard Newland in the first half of 2021. Has an 18-month absence to overcome but she's joined another respected stable and would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong (also has gone well fresh).

4/1
Built on promising hurdling debut (for Ellmarie Holden) when scoring in novice at Taunton (16.5f) in February. Runner-up next 2 starts but yet to make any impact in handicaps, including when sporting first-time cheekpieces earlier this month.

9/4
Uttoxeter winner back in summer 2020 who shaped as if retaining all ability after 18 months off when fifth at Ffos Las (20f) in May. Failed to build on that fitted with cheekpieces a fortnight later though, and she's not been seen since. Headgear/tongue tie left off today.

11/1
Winner of just one of her 21 starts over hurdles and that success was gained back in February 2020. Well held all 3 starts since returning from a break last month but yard not averse to landing a gamble and tongue strap/cheekpieces back on today.

14/1
Won over C&D for Milton Harris in January. Placed twice subsequently and she possibly needed the run after 7 months off when tailed off at Plumpton last month, emptying pretty quickly. Easy to look elsewhere.

20/1
Limited impact on Flat/over hurdles, his Fontwell third in September coming in a very weak handicap. Has looked increasingly moody and the blinkers worn last time are quickly dispensed.

Forecasts

Heure De Gloire (13/8), Hello Bob (9/4), Choral Work (4/1), Lily's Gem (11/1), Emma Lamb (12/1), Checkitsme (14/1), Kalaya (20/1)

Verdict

A tricky contest to unravel despite the small field but HEURE DE GLOIRE represents the in-form David Pipe, and having been cut some slack by the handicapper ahead of this return to action, she's afforded the vote. Emma Lamb is as expensive to follow as they come but she has gone well fresh so could well have a say in proceedings on return/yard debut today, with Choral Work rounding off the shortlist.

  1. Heure De Gloire13/8
  2. Emma Lamb12/1
  3. Choral Work4/1
