12/1
Useful sort who reached the frame for the second year running in the Silver Trophy at Chepstow (19.5f) in October. Below par in this sphere since, but ran up to his best back on the Flat when second at Pontefract last time and makes some appeal back over hurdles with his yard back among winners.

5/1
Capitalised on a drop in the weights in 7-runner handicap hurdle (7/1) at Ayr (20.4f, good) 31 days ago, asserting flat. Remains well treated on old form, so player if backing that up.

12/1
3-time C&D winner who was well held after 19 months off at Ayr (21.4f, good) 31 days ago, considerately handled. This will give a better indication of how much ability he retains.

Has done most of his winning at Carlisle. Fared a little better than of late in first-time cheekpieces when fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at this course (16.2f, good to soft) 17 days ago, though was well positioned. Back up in trip.

11/4
Dual winner of novice events in 2021 who was given a considerate return from 16 months off when ninth of 15 at Ayr (2m, good) 32 days ago. Merits consideration back up in trip with that under his belt.

18/1
Untrustworthy individual who ran one of his better races when 2¾ lengths third of 6 to Moonlight Glory in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft) 10 days ago. 4 lb better off with that rival now and well in the mix with a repeat.

Gained reward for consistency when winning 6-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft, 10/3) 10 days ago, always holding on. Should give another good account.

15/2
11-y-o who has returned from 6 months off better than ever, doubling his tally under a promising 7-lb claimer in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Kelso (20.9f, good to soft, 9/2) 13 days ago, always holding on. 5 lb higher mark in a stronger race makes life tougher, though.

Forecasts

Rattle Owl (11/4), Onward Route (9/2), Voix Du Reve (5/1), Captain Zebo (6/1), Balkalin (15/2), Moonlight Glory (10/1), Glinger Flame (12/1), Didtheyleaveuoutto (12/1), Applaus (18/1)

Verdict

RATTLE OWL is on a good mark on the pick of his novice form so he's taken to show the benefit of his comeback and come out on top with this step back up in trip likely to suit. Didtheyleaveuoutto is another who's been given a real chance by the assessor and makes some appeal with his yard back among the winners. Onward Route completes the shortlist.

  1. Rattle Owl11/4
  2. Didtheyleaveuoutto12/1
  3. Onward Route9/2
