Halondo^t¹²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Benjamin Poste| T: H Dickin| OR: 120| BF

28/1

Fairly useful hurdler for Olly Murphy but signed off for that yard with a poor display at Fontwell 4 months ago. New stable drops him in trip and the market should be informative.

Form: 2214-24

Pyffo²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 118

7/4

Bumper winner who benefited from more positive ride when scoring easily in 7-runner novice hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good to soft, 9/4) 25 days ago. Capable of following up back in handicap company.

Form: 1-32481

Ashington^p¹⁴⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: H Cobden| T: M Walford| OR: 115

4/1

Generally consistent and got back on his game when third at Sedgefield 149 days ago. Well treated and booking of Cobden indicates that he should be tuned up for this, so respected.

Form: 443483

Tardree^t²⁴⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Reed| T: L Morgan| OR: 113| D

22/1

All 6 career victories have come in small fields and he was more miss than hit last (mostly over fences) last season. Will probably need this return from 8 months off.

Form: 21-P66P

Sambezi^p,t²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Jack Andrews⁽³⁾| T: O Signy| OR: 111| D

12/1

Fairly useful hurdler who hasn't been at the top of his game this season but should strip fitter for recent effort at Fakenham. Well treated if he can build on latest outing.

Form: 3-13625

Red Windsor³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Rex Dingle| T: C Gordon| OR: 107| D

16/1

Fairly useful winner over hurdles last term but just one effort of note this season, down the field at Newbury last time. Others preferred.

Form: 3-42PP0

Gentleman Jacques⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 107WS

9/2

Fair form in bumpers and fair form to date over hurdles. Has to put a poor run at Hereford behind him but it's still early days (has had a breathing op) and he should be suited by the switch to handicaps.

Form: 332446

Big Blue Moon⁴⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: R Patrick| T: T Lacey| OR: 103

9/2

Promising start in handicap hurdles last spring but very tame efforts both outings this season, over fences on the first occasion. Has something to prove.

Form: 3312-PP

Kintail⁹⁵

Weight: 11-9| Age: 5

T: N J Henderson J: N de Boinville

Leylak⁶⁶⁹

Weight: 10-12| Age: 7

T: Deborah Cole J: Chris Ward

Rehill Relic²⁴

Weight: 10-12| Age: 5

T: S Allwood J: R T Dunne

Forecasts

Pyffo (7/4), Ashington (4/1), Big Blue Moon (9/2), Gentleman Jacques (9/2), Kintail (7/1), Rehill Relic (10/1), Sambezi (12/1), Leylak (14/1), Red Windsor (16/1), Tardree (22/1), Halondo (28/1)

PYFFO showed marked improvement when making all at Market Rasen and a performance of similar merit should see him go in again. Ashington is a danger if tuned up and Kintail is still unexposed, so he's not one to write off.
