The Bold Thady^p¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Miss Thomosina Eyston⁽⁷⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 100

3/1

Weak finisher who has yet to win but he does have consistent form figures, finishing second of 11 over 25f at Plumpton 11 days ago. Should figure again

Form: 43-23B2

Shengai Enki¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Alex Chadwick⁽⁷⁾| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 98| BF

4/1

Fair form in bumpers in Ireland and similar standard over hurdles in Britain, returning from a 7-month break to finish third in a 20.5f Huntingdon handicap 11 days ago. Possible he'll come on for the outing.

Form: 8-34223

The Wise Traveller¹³⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Jamie Gambin⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Mrs S J Humphrey| OR: 98

11/1

Better than ever at just the second time of asking for current stable when making all over 25f at Huntingdon in November. Not seen since but still looks feasibly treated off 5 lb higher if resuming in similar form.

Form: 2123-71

Game Socks^b¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Charlie Hammond| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 93| D

9/1

Has lost his way over fences this term and fared no better back hurdling in blinkers recently. Shengai Enki the more obvious of the yard's pair.

Form: 1-4P45P

Chatty Chich⁹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: C J Todd| T: D Skelton| OR: 92

85/40

Well held in 3 qualifying runs in mid-winter but placed in a bumper at the start of her career and could prove a different proposition now handicapping over a much longer trip. All the more interesting if backed.

Form: 38679

Sadie Hill^t²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Benjamin Poste| T: A Ralph| OR: 83

11/2

Won a handicap hurdle last spring and took a step back in the right direction when third of 6 over 2½m here 4 weeks ago. On a good mark if she can build on that.

Form: 48UP03

Non-Runners

Honey I'm Good²⁶

Weight: 11-1| Age: 8

T: Evan Williams J: Isabel Williams

Forecasts

Chatty Chich (85/40), The Bold Thady (3/1), Shengai Enki (4/1), Sadie Hill (11/2), Game Socks (9/1), The Wise Traveller (11/1), Honey I'm Good (16/1)

THE WISE TRAVELLER's front-running style should be suited to this place and he can make it 2-3 for the Sarah Humphrey yard. The Bold Thady is likely to be on the premises yet again, while Chatty Chich appeals as a potential improver in handicaps for Dan Skelton.
