Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 105

2/1

Just modest form over hurdles but no surprise that he made a decent start over fences given his size when fourth at Chepstow on return and entitled to improve on that.

Form: 9484-24

Haveanothergoflo^t²⁵²

9/1

Successful sole start in Irish points and fair form on 2 of his 3 starts over hurdles last season, third at Carlisle final start. Interesting on the back of a wind op now switched to handicaps on chase bow/return.

Form: 1/433-

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey| OR: 101| BF

5/2

Improved since visored, winning easily at Ffos Las in January and second at Southwell the following month. Let down by jumping final start but remains of interest now going chasing on return.

Form: 22312U-

Kankin²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Kielan Woods| T: A M Hales| OR: 101| D

10/3

Showed plenty of ability both starts in bumpers and looked on a fair opening mark when third on handicap hurdle debut at Warwick (19f) in May. Made a winning chase debut off the same mark at Huntingdon on return and big shout up 3 lb.

Form: 2523-31

Iron Horse^p¹⁶²

Age: 12| Weight: 11-5| J: Adam Wedge| T: R T Phillips| OR: 96| CD

11/1

Lightly raced for his age but hasn't convinced as a chaser and easy enough to oppose returning from another lay-off.

Form: 72P/2F-3

Nine Nine Nine¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-6| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: S-J Davies| OR: 83

33/1

Runner-up in Fakenham maiden on hurdling debut back in 2021/22 but failed to build on that effort next 3 starts, leaving Nigel Twiston-Davies after his second run. Fell heavily on chase bow at Warwick after 19 months off 18 days ago.

Form: 62655/F

Bignorm^p⁸⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 10-2| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Mrs R Gasson| OR: 72

16/1

Losing run is mounting up and ran poorly at Uttoxeter last time. Easy to oppose from out of the handicap.

Form: 332-338

Old Page^p⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: D R Fox| T: D Thompson| OR: 64

Forecasts

Doyouknowwhatimean (2/1), Roger Rarebit (5/2), Kankin (10/3), Haveanothergoflo (9/1), Iron Horse (11/1), Bignorm (16/1), Old Page (25/1), Nine Nine Nine (33/1)

DOYOUKNOWWHATIMEAN has the size to make a better chaser and duly made an encouraging start in this sphere when fourth at Chepstow on his return. He should come on for that and shades the vote over Kankin, who bettered his modest hurdling form right away when scoring at Huntingdon. Chasing-newcomers Haveanothergoflo and Roger Rarebit also need considering.
