5YO plus | Class 4 | 2m 1f 165y | 4 Runners | Turf

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 108| CD

Bumper winner who improved when opening his hurdles account at the seventh attempt here (17.7f, heavy). However, needs to prove he's as good over fences (well held on chase bow last spring). Engaged 4.32 Lingfield Tuesday.

Form: 667-721

Doyouknowwhatimean¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 108

Showed much improved form to get off the mark at Lingfield 2 weeks ago, cruising clear. 10 lb rise seems justified and can follow up.

Form: 243531

Aviles^p,t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Tom Cannon| T: G & J Moore| OR: 105

Fair ex-French hurdler who found just one too good all 4 starts in juvenile/maiden hurdles last term. Again runner-up when going agonisingly close on return/chase debut at Fontwell but failed to build on that next 2 starts.

Form: 222-2P3

Flamelco²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: N F Houlihan| T: G & J Moore| OR: 100

A fairly useful winning hurdler in France. In and out for this yard but more of an impact off reduced mark when second here 3 weeks ago (failed to last out after looking to have things in safe keeping 2 from home).

Form: 57-F3P2

Forecasts

Doyouknowwhatimean (6/4), Copper Cove (2/1), Flamelco (9/2), Aviles (5/1)

DOYOUKNOWWHATIMEAN showed much improved form to get off the mark in good style at Lingfield 2 weeks ago so is fancied to follow up. Copper Cove has to prove his ability as a chaser but he would be the obvious threat if translating the form of his recent hurdles win.
