Made For You^p¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Fern O'Brien⁽⁷⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 114| D

5/2

Winless since 2022 but he posted a good second of 8 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (19.6f, good) 19 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up off the same mark.

Form: 4/3352-2

Allbetsoff^h¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR: 108| D

3/1

Notched 3 wins in the first half of last season and resumed winning ways in 2m Hexham handicap in June. Only sixth in handicap at Cartmel (17.2f, good) 19 days ago but he's the sort to bounce back.

Form: 104-816

Coral Blue^t¹⁷⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: Callum Bewley| T: D Bourke| OR: 101| D

18/1

A three-time winner in 2022/23 but failed to fire all 3 starts last term. On the plus side, his mark continues to ease and a tongue tie is back on so he's no forlorn hope.

Form: 118/95P-

Jack The Savage^t³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: K Brogan| T: L Horsfall| OR: 100| D

5/2

Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (16f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Can give a good account kept to this sphere.

Form: 150-265

Chef De Troupe⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 10-11| J: Chris Ward⁽³⁾| T: A Forbes| OR: 97| CD

7/2

C&D winner in May but he unseated his rider early back here 8 days ago. Sort to get back on track quickly.

Form: 331/12U

Forecasts

Dog Fox (7/4), Made For You (5/2), Jack The Savage (5/2), Allbetsoff (3/1), Chef De Troupe (7/2), I Still Have Faith (9/2), Coral Blue (18/1)

DOG FOX impressed with how he went through the race when scoring at Bangor last time so is fancied to make light of a 7 lb rise. I Still Have Faith returns to this sphere on a lenient mark so could emerge as the main danger, although Made For You and Jack The Savage also need factoring into this competitive handicap.
