11/2

Reliable hurdler who went in on only her second run over fences in 2m handicap at Chepstow in January, coming from a long way back. Rather in-and-out since over the larger obstacles but now back over timber.

11/10

Can boast an excellent strike rate and was heavily backed to go in again at Uttoxeter last month, only to finish third. That was still a sound effort and step back up in trip can only help. Major claims.

Form: 121/30-3

2/1

Progressive from a low base in 2022-23, completing 4-timer at Exeter (21.6f). Handicapper looked in control for a while but she was found a weak race to regain the winning thread at Wincanton in October. Switch to a right-handed track against her 2 months later and off since.

13/2

Off the mark in Irish points at third attempt in January and second of his 3 qualifying runs in this sphere at Taunton was pretty encouraging. Didn't quite see out 3m on recent handicap debut.

Forecasts

World Of Dreams (11/10), Clearance (7/4), The Height Of Fame (2/1), Songo (9/2), Midnight Ginger (11/2), Backinaction (13/2), Bashful Boy (7/1)

WORLD OF DREAMS hasn't stood much racing but there's still damage to be done from this sort of mark with a clear shot at it and this step up in trip is sure to help his cause. Clearance and Songo are reliable operators at this venue and head the opposition.
