Plaisir Des Flos9(ex 7)
Age: 5|  Weight: 12-1| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR:  91| D
Sharp improver switched to handicaps, following up his Sedgefield win at Wincanton last week, always holding on. Penalty won't prevent a very bold hat-trick bid.

Sattam72
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-8| J: Henry Brooke| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR:  91
Showed fair form when in the frame all 3 starts in bumpers for Dermot Weld. Low-key start over hurdles but he's a potential improver now handicapping.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-8| J: Thomas Dowson| T: P A Kirby| OR:  91
Winning pointer but down the field in hunter chase at Downpatrick when trained by B. R. Hamilton. Showed more on her stable debut when third of 5 in novice hurdle at Sedgefield (19.8f, heavy but since bombed out at Hexham. Handicap debut.

Dexperadop16
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Charlie Hammond| T: N Kent| OR:  90
Down the field in a bumper and failed to make any impact in novice hurdle. Bred to be better than this sort of mark and upped in trip (fitted with cheekpieces), he showed more when runner-up on handicap debut at Market Rasen 16 days ago, sticking to the task. Big player.

Over Milk Wood18
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-0| J: Benjamin Poste| T: G Hanmer| OR:  83
Modest form over hurdles in Ireland for Olivia Hegarty in 2021. Missed all of 2022 and 2023 and little positives to draw from comeback runs.

Hubbel Bubbel24
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-11| J: S Bowen| T: P A Kirby| OR:  80
Showed glimmers of ability in maiden/novice company but improvement not yet forthcoming in handicaps, for all latest third at Sedgefield was a sound effort.

Lifetime Adventureb128
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-7| J: K Brogan| T: A B Hamilton| OR:  76
Modest maiden hurdler whose profile is very in-and out, failing to back up a better effort when well held in a first-time tongue tie at Ayr. Blinkers now on.

Forecasts

Plaisir Des Flos (6/4), Dexperado (5/2), Hubbel Bubbel (11/2), Time Was (10/1), Sattam (12/1), Lifetime Adventure (12/1), Over Milk Wood (20/1), Western Glen (25/1)

Verdict

DEXPERADO showed much more when finding only another unexposed (and heavily backed) rival too strong at Market Rasen a fortnight ago and there are races to be won from this modest mark. He's marginally preferred to Plaisir des FLos who will doubtless be popular in pursuit of a hat-trick.
