Big Bee Hive^p,t¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 100| C

5/2

Hurdles winner in Ireland who made perfect start over fences when scoring at Sedgefield (19.3f) in February. Improved again when quickly resuming winning ways at Southwell/Cartmel last month and his style of racing (deep closer) is making it hard for the handicapper to take his measure.

Form: 5312-11

Dusautior^p,t⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 95| D

3/1

No show in 3 starts over hurdles (all at 2m) but this former winning pointer has predictably improved upped in trip and switched to fences the last twice, latterly opening his account at Bangor (3m, soft). 4 lb rise fair and likely to be in the mix.

Form: 3/80931-

Mance Rayder^p³⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 11-7| J: Danny McMenamin| T: H Hogarth| OR: 93| D

50/1

Winless since 2021 and he was pulled up back from another break at Hexham last month. Plenty to prove.

Form: 2543/P-P

Annie Wicks²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 91

9/1

Well held completed starts over hurdles but proved a different proposition on second chase start when landing 11-runner mares' handicap at Taunton (21.7f, soft) in March, drawing clear from 3 out. Collared only in the run-in when upped in trip at Hereford since and big shout back down in distance,

Form: P/0731-2

Guguss Collonges^p⁸⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Lily Pinchin| T: R A Teal| OR: 90| D

25/1

Successful over fences at Stratford (22.6f) and Lingfield (23.5f) in November. However, has run poorly on his last 3 starts, so needs to get back on track.

Form: 214PPP-

Prince Cleni¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Jack Tudor| T: Christian Williams| OR: 80| CD

10/3

Little form over hurdles but did well over fences at the start of last summer, runner-up at Uttoxeter before going one better in this race off current mark. Lost his form after until back to form at Fontwell 16 days ago, just failing. High on shortlist.

Form: 844P-P2

Conceal^p⁷¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-6| J: K Brogan| T: Billy Aprahamian| OR: 78

11/1

Won at Uttoxeter in autumn 2022 but more lows than highs since, his last 2 efforts particularly poor.

Form: UP/3446-

Eightytwo Team^p,t³⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: Brendan Powell| T: C Ellam| OR: 76| CD

7/1

Ex-Irish who finally got off the mark equipped with a first-time tongue tie over C&D last summer. Added to patchy record next 2 starts but did shape as if back in form after 8 months off when third at Fontwell 5 weeks ago.

Form: 53135-3

Out For Justice^t⁸³

Age: 11| Weight: 10-2| J: Benjamin Poste| T: R J Price| OR: 71| D

66/1

Poor handicap chaser nowadays who offered little both starts after 19 months off earlier in the year. 3 lb out of handicap.

Form: 2458/7P-

Forecasts

Big Bee Hive (5/2), Dusautior (3/1), Prince Cleni (10/3), Eightytwo Team (7/1), Annie Wicks (9/1), Conceal (11/1), Guguss Collonges (25/1), Mance Rayder (50/1), Out For Justice (66/1)

A few to consider but PRINCE CLENI bounced back to form when just failing at Fontwell and another big run looks on the cards having won this race last year off the same mark. Dusautior showed plenty of guts when making all at Bangor and remains unexposed, while Big Bee Hive and Annie Wicks are both thriving currently.
