Chauffeur Driven60
Age: 5|  Weight: 12-0| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR:  100
Won his only start in points and has shown some fair form in this sphere, third of 10 in a novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, heavy) last time. This step up in trip could help unlock improvement now that he goes down the handicap route.

Kalpaga66
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-13| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR:  99| DWS
French import who cashed in on a reduced mark over hurdles at Hereford (2m4f) in April. Good second at this course on final outing last season but has struggled for consistency over fences this term. Has had a breathing operation ahead of this return to the smaller obstacles.

Mumbles29
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Ring(3)| T: Evan Williams| OR:  98| BF
Gradual improver in handicaps, getting off the mark by 16 lengths (margin of victory exaggerated by the second being eased off) at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) in January. Ran at least as well in defeat under penalty here last time and remains of interest back up in trip.

Shillanavogy36
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: James Bowen| T: W Greatrex| OR:  84WS
Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules who was much more prominent in the betting than previously over hurdles but shaped as if amiss when down the field on handicap debut at Wetherby last time. Remains early days.

Triple Nicklep14
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-4| J: Jordan Williams(5)| T: B J Llewellyn| OR:  76| BF
Eleven runs since last win in 2021 and failed to capitalise on the drop in grade when second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (16f, soft, 2/1) 14 days ago. Back up in trip.

Robber's Bridge51
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-4| J: James Best| T: Simon Earle| OR:  76
Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs but produced his best effort to date when very good second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Leicester (15.5f, heavy, 10/3) 51 days ago. That form is proving strong and he has obvious claims back up in trip.

Richardson70
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-4| J: Lee Edwards| T: B Clarke| OR:  76| D
Fourteen runs since last win in 2020 but stepped up a little on his 2 previous runs this season when fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (22.2f, heavy) in December.

Forecasts

Mumbles (11/4), Robber's Bridge (7/2), Kalpaga (11/2), Chauffeur Driven (13/2), Triple Nickle (7/1), Richardson (8/1), Shillanavogy (8/1), Another Lord (20/1)

Verdict

ROBBER'S BRIDGE is still a maiden, but he went close to opening his account at Leicester last time and, with that form proving strong, he's taken to get off the mark back up in trip. Mumbles is strongly respected returned to 2½m, with handicap-debutant Chauffeur Driven another to consider.
