Morningside⁴¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: Miss S E Forster| OR: 91

5/1

Upped his game over fences in 2022, runner-up at Southwell and Kelso early this year. Looked rusty after 5 months off at Kelso and should fare better here.

Form: 0224-45

Skyhill^t¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: Mrs A C Hamilton| OR: 86| C

5/1

Campaigned largely over fences in recent years, winning at Carlisle (24.5f) in February. Back to form when third at Newcastle 2 weeks ago and on a fair mark if building on that.

Form: 415P-P3

Elleon¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 82

1/1

Bumper winner. Maiden over hurdles for Warren Greatrex but showed promise sent chasing when third of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (23.4f, soft) on return/yard debut 2 weeks ago. Potentially on a very lenient mark if able to build on that.

Form: 94U68-3

To The Limit^b¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Sean Quinlan| T: W Coltherd| OR: 79

6/1

Winner at Kelso in January but more recent efforts leave a lot to be desired, including after return from summer break last 2 starts.

Form: P2-PP87

Son Of Oz^v1²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Houlihan| T: R Stephens| OR: 75

16/1

No solid form. Change of headgear.

Form: 773PP-P

Chain Smoker^p⁴⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: G Howell| OR: 71

28/1

Fontwell win for Gary Moore in January 2020 is very much a standout on his record. Showed nothing after 16 months off in handicap hurdle at Worcester 44 days ago.

Form: P4/P65-P

Forecasts

Elleon (1/1), Kildrum (2/1), Skyhill (5/1), Morningside (5/1), To The Limit (6/1), Son Of Oz (16/1), Roccowithlove (20/1), Chain Smoker (28/1)

ELLEON rather lost his way for Warren Greatrex last season, but he caught the eye on his return/yard debut when third on his chase bow at Newcastle 2 weeks ago and is potentially well handicapped if able to build on that. Morningside should strip fitter for his return, while claims can also be made for Skyhill and Kildrum.
