Let's Go Amigo^p1²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 98

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden who posted a good fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f, good) 26 days ago, running on late. This much longer trip seems sure to suit so considered in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 52784

Wye Aye^h⁶⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Joe Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 95| C

14/1

Won 4 times over fences but recent efforts have been well below par, falling heavily 7th at Newcastle last time. Back hurdling now with something to prove.

Form: 1U-277F

The Wise Traveller²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Cian Chester⁽¹⁰⁾| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 93| CD

3/1

Resumed winning ways in 8-runner handicap hurdle over C&D 24 days ago. Up 6 lb but can't be ruled out.

Form: PP-1221

Braganza Bay^b⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: G Sheehan| T: H D Daly| OR: 91

8/1

Responded to first-time cheekpieces when taking 25f handicap hurdle at Hereford in November but well below par both runs since. Bounce back needed with blinkers refitted here.

Form: PP9180

Tiny Tantrum^p³³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Bryony Frost| T: M Murphy & M Keady| OR: 82

10/1

Fair maiden for Lucy Wadham last term but not at his best in 4 handicaps for new yard this winter. Mark is on the slide but still need to see more.

Form: 33-5545

Robbie Dazzler¹²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: M Scudamore| OR: 81

9/1

Yet to get his head in front but knocking firmly on the door of late, runner-up at Hexham last time. Another bold show anticipated despite a 2 lb rise.

Form: 573622

The Skiffle King^p²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: R T Dunne| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 79

5/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time when getting off the mark in 10-runner handicap hurdle (12/1) at Southwell (25.8f, good) 25 days ago. Needs to back it up with headgear retained.

Form: 409981

The Bandit^h²²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-9| J: Tom Cannon| T: N B King| OR: 79

15/2

Fair in bumpers and he posted much his best effort in this sphere when fifth of 9 on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f) 22 days ago, finishing well having been set lot to do. Big shout off a 3 lb lower mark.

Form: 37-3P95

Richardson⁶⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Lee Edwards| T: J Groucott| OR: 78

25/1

Poor handicap hurdler who ran one of his better races when second of 16 in handicap hurdle at Leicester (20.5f, heavy) 67 days ago. Up in trip and in the mix if on his A-game again.

Form: 50-6502

Ratoute Yutty^t²⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: Lewis Stones⁽⁵⁾| T: C Fryer| OR: 77| CD

16/1

Dual C&D winner who shaped as if still in need of the run when fading-fifth of 8 to The Wise Traveller here 24 days ago. Very much one to consider.

Form: 17-14P5

Galactic Power^v⁵⁴

Age: 13| Weight: 10-4| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: H Dickin| OR: 74| C

40/1

Course winner but it's now 25 runs since last success in 2018. Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Exeter (21.6f, heavy) 54 days ago so needs to get back on track.

Form: 3PP-02P

Forecasts

The Wise Traveller (3/1), The Skiffle King (5/1), Let's Go Amigo (11/2), The Bandit (15/2), Braganza Bay (8/1), Robbie Dazzler (9/1), Tiny Tantrum (10/1), Wye Aye (14/1), Ratoute Yutty (16/1), Richardson (25/1), Galactic Power (40/1)

THE BANDIT caught the eye when a strong-finishing fifth at Uttoxeter last time and can capitalise on a very handy-looking mark to register his first success. Ratoute Yutty should be spot on after her recent fifth here so this dual C&D scorer rates a big threat though, with Robbie Dazzler and Let's Go Amigo two more who need factoring in.
