Not far off his 11th birthday but he was better than ever when returning from 5 months off to win at Perth (2m, heavy) last month, showing a willing attitude. Suspicion a 4 lb rise may find him out now, though.

Smart performer in his prime who capitalised on a drop in the weights in 7-runner handicap hurdle (7/1) at Ayr (20.5f, good) in April. Respectable sixth of 9 at Hexham the following month. Off since.

Lightly-raced sort who won a pair of 2m Hexham novice hurdles in spring 2021. Not seen again until unseating early in a 2m Wetherby handicap in March 2022. Off a further 19 months. Betting probably the best guide to what's anticipated.

8/1
Triple French bumper winner who landed a novice hurdle at Wincanton in 2021. Not seen again until a quite encouraging third on 2m Chepstow handicap debut last autumn. Disappointing at Exeter next time and off for a further 11 months. Possibly not easiest to train but retains potential.

Fairly useful in bumpers in Ireland and struck at the second time of asking over hurdles in Leicester novice last Christmas. Bit disappointing when only fourth on Hereford handicap debut (2m, good to soft) in January but it's still early days. Off for 8 months. Considered.

Fair maiden on Flat for the Crisfords and opened her account over hurdles for current yard in 19f Haydock novice in April. Good seventh on her handicap debut at Cheltenham (17f, good) later that month and returns from a break with her stable in form.

Has thrived for this yard, gaining a sixth win since December (4 hurdle, 2 Flat) when seeing off 11 rivals at Perth (2m) in June. Given a break since finishing third there later that month.

Five-time winner last year, including this race off 4 lb higher. Creditable placed efforts at Bangor and Cartmel when last seen in August and likely to be in the shake-up.

Showed promise in his only bumper and looked a good prospect when making a winning hurdle debut at Bangor last November. Too keen when beaten favourite in a 19f novice here 4 months later but remains capable of better now handicapping back at shorter. Market confidence significant.

Gained reward for consistency when winning 6-runner Hexham handicap (good to soft, 10/3) in May and shaped as if in good form still when fifth there 10 days later. First outing for 5 months.

Landed his fourth win at Perth when successful over 2m in September, gradually getting to the runaway leader. Well-held fourth both outings since and vulnerable to some of the less-exposed sorts in this line-up.

Forecasts

Gardener (5/2), Grain D'oudairies (16/5), Thereisnodoubt (13/2), Holly (8/1), Well Educated (17/2), Golden Glance (11/1), Voix Du Reve (14/1), Malangen (25/1), Russian Virtue (28/1), Moonlight Glory (33/1), Jante Law (40/1)

Verdict

An opening mark of 110 might underestimate GRAIN D'OUDAIRIES as he was a promising winner on his hurdle debut and was too fresh stepping up in trip when beaten at short odds here since. Gardener is another lightly-raced sort who should have his best days ahead of him and is second choice ahead of last year's winner Well Educated.
