Ffos Las bumper winner who posted his best effort yet over hurdles when runner-up in a 23f Lingfield handicap in January. Not disgraced over the same C&D since (subsequently undergone a wind op) and he's one to consider.
|
Runner-up first 3 starts over hurdles but no impact switched to handicaps the last twice. Best to look elsewhere.
|
Good second to the progressive Blue Shark on handicap debut at Huntingdon (20.7f) in February. Possibly found the race coming too soon at Taunton last time and possibilities here if coping with this step up in trip.
|
Caught the eye under considerate handling when fifth on hurdles debut at Ludlow but subsequent efforts have been poor, including on handicap bow at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) last month. Big step forward needed up in trip here.
|
Bumper winner who went close to opening her hurdles account at Taunton (3m, good) in March. Disappointing over the same C&D since but it wouldn't be any great surprise were she to bounce back with a bold show.
|
Modest ex-Irish maiden hurdler who hasn't shown much in 2 starts for present connections. Needs to improve on the back of a wind op.
|
Cut little ice in bumpers and not much encouragement over hurdles either. Pulled up on chase debut at Plumpton last month and looks set for another struggle returned to this sphere.
|
Remains a maiden following 17 attempts in this sphere but latest second in a Ludlow handicap (21.2f, good to soft) was by far her best effort for present connections. Definite chance off the same mark here.
|
Lost his way for Ben Lund but has put in good shifts in handicaps at Chepstow and Warwick for present yard. Near miss at the latter course was over 25f and, unexposed as a stayer, he has to enter calculations.
|
Winner of both starts between the flags last spring but her record under Rules is hardly compelling.

Forecasts
Jack The Farmer (85/40), Hurricane Vichi (10/3), Dancingontheedge (9/2), Eaton Lady (13/2), Titanium Bullet (15/2), Harry D'alene (14/1), Luckello (22/1), King Otis (28/1), Saved By The River (50/1), Scarpered (50/1)
The vote goes to JACK THE FARMER, who pulled clear of the rest when second upped to 25f at Warwick recently and he could have more to offer over this sort of trip. Eaton Lady is next on the list on the back of an improved effort at Ludlow, while Hurricane Vichi is also shortlisted.
