The Good Doctor¹⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Kielan Woods| T: B Pauling

5/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Won 11-runner juvenile hurdle (83/10) at Compiegne (17.9f, soft). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Mlle A-S. Pacault (sold €140,000 in July). Form pick.

Form: FP-31

Celtic Ned²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: N F Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: G & J Moore

17/2

Closely related to 2 winners and left debut well behind starting out for this yard when sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) 21 days ago, considerately handled. May well do better again.

Form: P-6

Heerathetrack⁹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: M D I Usher

250/1

Poor/untrustworthy maiden on Flat, stays 1m, little impact in 2023. Easily passed over on hurdles bow.

Form:

Honore¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽³⁾| T: P Phelan

300/1

Down the field in 2 bumpers and has failed to complete all 3 starts over hurdles so far.

Form: 0/6FP-P

Loverdose⁵⁷⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Kimber⁽³⁾| T: R Walford

9/1

Half-brother to useful hurdler Max Dynamite and fair form when successful once (at 2m) from 2 starts on Flat in France in 2022 for H-A. Pantall. One to note in betting.

Form:

Midnight Soldier²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Beau Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: B Pauling

9/1

Made a winning bumper debut in good style at Fontwell in June 2021 for Christian Williams. Encouraging second of 6 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) on hurdles bow after 2 years off but well held at Exeter 6 months later.

Form: 1/27

Mister Mose³⁷⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: R Patrick| T: A Irvine

66/1

Made frame both starts in Irish points. Modest form over hurdles both starts at Ascot 12 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Paul Henderson.

Form: 43/56-

Paradias⁶¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: A King

2/1

Useful on Flat so big shout if taking to this sphere at the first attempt.

Form:

Quian²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: J M Quinlan| T: T Gallagher| D

66/1

Smart performer on Flat (stays 2m) at one time but he's lost his way and well beaten both starts over hurdles. Hard to fancy.

Form: 6-8

Schmilsson^h1⁵²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| BF

9/2

Fairly useful on the Flat (barely stays 1½m) for Andrew Balding but ran below that level sent hurdling after 13 months off when remote third at Newbury.

Form: 3

Spitalfield¹²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill

11/2

Fair in bumpers (placed last 3 starts in that sphere) but let down by jumping both starts over hurdles so far.

Form: 5222-U3

Vintage Icon²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: A Irvine

300/1

Offered little in 3 bumpers.

Form: 07-0

Guinessed³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: J & S Best

150/1

Modest form in bumpers and well held on hurdles bow/return.

Form: 555-P

Super Dawn²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: Freddie Gordon⁽⁵⁾| T: C Gordon

33/1

Point winner who showed promise when fourth on hurdles debut at Warwick (2m). Only seventh at Plumpton next time, though. Wants further.

Form: 312-P47

Forecasts

Paradias (2/1), Romano (3/1), Schmilsson (9/2), The Good Doctor (5/1), Spitalfield (11/2), Celtic Ned (17/2), Midnight Soldier (9/1), Loverdose (9/1), Super Dawn (33/1), Quian (66/1), Mister Mose (66/1), Guinessed (150/1), Heerathetrack (250/1), Vintage Icon (300/1), Honore (300/1)

PARADIAS was useful on the level and has every chance of being at least as good over hurdles given the yard he's from. The Good Doctor is an interesting recruit from France, as is Loverdose back from 19 months off.
