Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: H Fry| OR: 108| CD

6/4

Showed a good attiutde when making it 2-3 for his current yard in 12-runner handicap hurdle over C&D 40 days ago. Up 4 lb but form has been franked so he's expected to be bang there.

Form: 68P-191

Heure De Gloire^b,t⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: D Pipe| OR: 108

10/3

Resumed winning ways in 2m handicap hurdle at Leicester 45 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Very much one to consider despite taking a 7 lb rise.

Form: 436231

50/1

Lightly-raced ex-Irish winner over hurdles. 66/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) 103 days ago. Returns from breathing surgery now with lots to prove.

Form: P/31P-P

Naturally High⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 107

9/1

Dual Flat/2m hurdles winner. Off 14 months and looked rusty when pulled up in 2m2f Exeter handicap last month. Needs to build on it now.

Form: U/7611-P

7/1

Scored here in December but only eighth of 11 in 2m handicap hurdle at Sandown 30 days ago. This C&D winner needs to get back on track.

Form: 5-64138

Polyphonic^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Reed| T: M F Harris| OR: 110| CD

8/1

Fairly useful 11f winner on Flat and sold from Karl Burke 42,000 gns in October. Hood on when scoring at Fontwell (17.7f) in December and respectable efforts since. Should be on the premises once more now going handicapping.

Form: 31545

13/2

Off the mark in Sandown juvenile in December but pulled up there 7 days ago after hanging badly left on the first turn. Blinkers go back on now.

Forecasts

Monjules (6/4), Heure De Gloire (10/3), Penna Rossa (13/2), Ray's The One (7/1), Polyphonic (8/1), Naturally High (9/1), Grasse D'oliverie (14/1), Noah's Light (50/1)

MONJULES showed plenty of pluck when making in 2-3 for Harry Fry over C&D last time and with that form working out well he's taken to defy a 4 lb rise and go in again. Leicester-scorer Heure de Gloire rates a big threat however, with the reliable Polyphonic not disounted either on his handicap bow.
