6/1

Runner-up in a bumper a year ago. Yet to translate that to hurdling, though mid-field effort at Huntingdon was much more like it. Handicap debut.

Chicago Gal⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: P W Wadge| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 94

13/2

Fair on the Flat and best effort yet over hurdles when second of 7 at Wetherby in March. Nudged up 1 lb but she ought to be thereabouts again.

Form: 52/3482-

Record Art¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Jack Hogan| T: R J Smith| OR: 92

40/1

Has never stood much racing and was entitled to need comeback run at Uttoxeter last month. Handicaps more suitable but mark does still ask for more.

Form: 44/38-

A Shining Moon^p⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Tom Midgley| T: P T Midgley| OR: 86

14/1

Hasn't had much racing over hurdles and narrowly denied in 8-runner handicap at Kelso in September. Merely ticked over on the AW more recently but can give a good account with usual cheekpieces back on.

Lenebane^p,t⁹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Aaron Anderson| T: R Menzies| OR: 83

8/1

Maiden hurdler who is essentially dropping in the weights without looking ready to take advantage.

Gone In Sixty¹⁷⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Harriet Tucker⁽⁵⁾| T: A M Hales| OR: 81| BF

11/2

Long-standing maiden who finished placed twice over fences during the autumn. Unable to continue the good work since and now back from a break over timber minus usual tongue tie.

Cellar Club²⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Lily Pinchin| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 80WS

40/1

Little to shout about so far so switch to handicaps needs to bring about lots of improvement.

Swiss Money^t¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Bradley Harris⁽³⁾| T: H Dickin| OR: 84

5/4

A fairly useful winner on the Flat in France who has a lowly mark to work with over hurdles and conceded first run when second at Kempton 18 days ago. Tongue strap back on and plenty to recommend him for in-form yard.

Form: 5532-

Cofficionado^t¹⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: William Maggs⁽⁶⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 79WS

10/1

Well held in Haydock maiden on sole start on Flat in September 2022 and has performed to only a modest level at best in 3 juvenile hurdles so far. In good hands and given a low mark to work with.

Forecasts

Swiss Money (5/4), Gone In Sixty (11/2), Mount Ferns (6/1), Chicago Gal (13/2), Lenebane (8/1), Cofficionado (10/1), A Shining Moon (14/1), Cellar Club (40/1), Record Art (40/1), Luduamf (200/1)

SWISS MONEY has a hurdles mark very similar to his Flat one so a fairly easy handicapping case can be made for him on the back of a more encouraging display at Kempton. Cofficionado should also be capable of doing some damage in a race like this, with Chicago Gal likely to give it a good go.
