Badlands Boy³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr

Offered more than on hurdle debut when third of 10 over 17f at Sedgefield (heavy) last month. Possible frame claims again in this company if able to step forward again.

Flash In The Park⁸⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling

1/1

Fetched £350,000 after winning an Irish maiden point by 20 lengths in November 2022 but has only managed poor form in a pair of starts over hurdles so far and needs to improve to land a blow on qualifying run.

Form: P/1-68

Gregorian Diamond¹²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: M Young

150/1

Modest bumper performer (first 2 outings for Fergal O'Brien) finished down the field on Flat debut for this yard in November. Hard to recommend switched to hurdling.

Form: UP-328

Jackpot Cash³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: S Bowen| T: Evan Williams| OR: 103| BF

11/4

Improved from hurdling debut when third of 8 in a novice event (2/1) at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) 35 days ago, albeit underwhelming with his response off the bridle. Still rates amongst the form picks in this company and could do better still.

Form: 543

Mount Gallion¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Tom Midgley⁽³⁾| T: M Walford

11/1

Regressed in bumpers in Ireland but has made an encouraging start over hurdles for this yard, very much catching the eye under considerate handling with fifth of 8 in novice hurdle at Newcastle (16.9f, soft) 18 days ago. Handicaps over further might be his bag but he's a live contender here.

Form: 4-34855

Scout Master²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: David Noonan| T: Miss C Dyson

200/1

Maiden Irish pointer has offered little in 2 starts under Rules so far.

Form: 225P66

Locken Lady²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Bryan Carver| T: A M Hales

125/1

Snow Sky mare landed an Irish point in January but finished down the field on Rules debut at Southwell (15.8f, heavy, 25/1) last month. Needs to show more now hurdling.

Form: 17

Bathgate⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Lewis Stones⁽³⁾| T: T H Weston

150/1

No encouragment from 2 starts in bumpers, racing freely when down the field at Warwick in January. Hard to fancy on hurdles bow.

Form: 78

Karakoy^h¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Liam Harrison| T: R L Llewellyn

125/1

Fair winner on the Flat for Harry & Roger Charlton and cost new connections 30,000 gns in October. No promise to be taken from either start over hurdles so far, however.

Form: 07

Secret Sauce^t⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Bradley Harris⁽³⁾| T: Anthony Charlton| OR: 100

9/2

Fair performer on the Flat in Ireland, winning a 1m Gowran claimer last May. Strong in the market and produced by far his best effort over timber when second of 11 in novice hurdle (3/1) at Hereford (16.2f, good to soft) 44 days ago, faring best of those held up. Player.

Form: U62

Forecasts

Flash In The Park (1/1), Mirabad (2/1), Jackpot Cash (11/4), Secret Sauce (9/2), Arthurian Fable (5/1), Badlands Boy (15/2), Mount Gallion (11/1), Night Stalker (20/1), Saint Vic (25/1), Master Chartwell (33/1), Locken Lady (125/1), Karakoy (125/1), Bathgate (150/1), Gregorian Diamond (150/1), Scout Master (200/1)

JACKPOT CASH was a bit underwhelming at Ludlow last time but rather stands out in this company on that form and looks the way to go. Secret Sauce ran well when supported at Hereford and heads up the dangers ahead of Mount Gallion.
