Fifty Ballv120
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-10| J: N F Houlihan| T: G & J Moore| OR:  116| D
Returned to form when finding just one too good at Fontwell (3¼m, good to firm) in May. Shaped as if needing the run after 5 months off there in October but hasn't seen either of his races out since. More severe headgear is enlisted and must be respected back in this grade.

Bit of a mixed bag in maiden hurdles but it was more like it sporting first-time headgear when third of 4 in minor event at Limerick (20f, heavy, 40/1) just over 2 weeks ago. Now sent handicapping and any market support should be noted.

Bumper winner who bagged back-to-back handicap hurdle victories (at up to 19f) in late-2022 and placed on his first 2 starts last year. However, he remains 10 lb above his last winning mark as he returns from 11 months off.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-3| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR:  109| BF
Remains a maiden following 8 attempts over hurdles but much more encouraging signs in handicaps, placed for the fifth consecutive start when third at Hereford (25.5f, good to soft) last month. Was possibly stretched that day so there's plenty to like back down in trip.

Herakles Westwood30
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-2| J: James Bowen| T: W Greatrex| OR:  108| C| D
Fair form in bumpers and much improved over hurdles when landing 13-runner handicap at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) in November. Handled dire conditions fine when following up from 9 lb higher at this course (21.8f, heavy) last month and every chance he can make it 3 on the spin.

Forecasts

Herakles Westwood (11/8), Bertie Wooster (7/2), Fifty Ball (5/1), Ilanz (11/2), Just Three (6/1)

Verdict

A tricky contest to unravel despite the small field but HERAKLES WESTWOOD has really got his act together of late so Warren Greatrex's 7-y-o is fancied to defy another hike in the weights and complete the hat-trick at the expense of Fifty Ball, who hasn't been seeing his races out, but has more severe headgear enlisted here and also drops back down in grade. The ultra-consistent Bertie Wooster can fill out third spot.
