Sacchoandvanzetti^t³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 117| BF

4/1

Fair winning hurdler in Ireland for John Queally and good runner-up efforts on all 3 starts since joining Fergal O'Brien. Likely to be in the shake-up again.

Form: 89-3222

Bon Retour⁵²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Tom Midgley| T: M Walford| OR: 113| D

40/1

Dual winner for Nicky Richards last summer. Has yet to fire for her new stable but is starting to look well treated again.

Form: 1785-76

Kingston Bridge¹⁷⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: D B Hurst⁽³⁾| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 111| C

13/2

Bumper winner who showed a likeable attitude to get off the mark in this sphere over 19f here in March. Improved again when second of 14 in 2½m Perth handicap the following month. This unexposed sort has the potential for better again on his return.

Form: 124312-

Heross Du Seuil^p¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Finn Lambert| T: R Potter| OR: 111| BF| D

9/2

Left first 3 runs for this yard behind when successful at Uttoxeter (2½m) last month and backed it up when narrowly denied at Southwell 16 days ago. Claims if in similar form.

Form: 5PP-712

White Rhino¹⁷⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 109| BF| D

10/3

Much improved when sent handicapping last season, completing a hat-trick around 2½m and creditable second at Southwell final start (would have been closer but for blundering last).

Form: 001112-

Applaus^p,t²²

Age: 11| Weight: 11-3| J: Emma Smith-Chaston⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 109| C

22/1

Untrustworthy veteran but he did score twice over 17f here last winter (also second in April). Well beaten back from a break last month but may fare better at a venue which clearly suits.

Form: 2-93247

Diamond State^t¹⁷⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: P W Wadge⁽³⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 107| DWS

9/1

Mostly in good form over fences last season, including a 2m win at Musselburgh. Reverts to hurdles on his return with his yard in fine form. Has gone well fresh before. Might be the answer back from wind surgery.

Form: 14324U-

Skip Mahler¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Conor Rabbitt| T: L Fowler| OR: 106

15/2

Arrives on the back of placed efforts in Ireland but his British mark demands some improvement.

Form: 0-25P32

Heritier De Sivola²¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: Joe Williamson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 95

8/1

Maiden Irish pointer who showed improved form when making all in a novice handicap at Kelso (22.5f) in December. Even better form in defeat at Wetherby on next 2 starts but off since a disappointing run there in March.

Form: 5/61427-

Dalileo¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 93| D

18/1

Reached the frame for the sixth time this season when 1¾ lengths fourth of 6 to Eloi Du Puy at Kelso 11 days ago but that took his overall record to 1-29 and others are preferred for win purposes again.

Form: 223464

Forecasts

White Rhino (10/3), Sacchoandvanzetti (4/1), Heross Du Seuil (9/2), Kingston Bridge (13/2), Skip Mahler (15/2), Heritier De Sivola (8/1), Finisk River (8/1), Diamond State (9/1), Aazza (14/1), Firth Of Forth (16/1), Jimmy Rabbitte (16/1), Dalileo (18/1), Applaus (22/1), Bon Retour (40/1)

With the Lucinda Russell yard in such good form the suggestion is DIAMOND STATE, who has a good record fresh and is down to a workable mark ahead of his return from wind surgery. Sacchoandvanzetti heads the dangers along with Finisk River and the returning White Rhino, who was progressive in handicaps last season.
