Off time: 15:05 | Winning time: 4m 30.62s

Zhang Fei⁶¹

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Fern O'Brien⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 99| BF

9/2

Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles who had been in good form on the Flat prior to an underwhelming fifth at Newton Abbot a couple of months ago. Worth considering having been given a break since.

Form: 87-5415

Karannelle^h,t³³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-13| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁷⁾| T: D A Rees| OR: 98| D

28/1

Latest win in hurdle at Newton Abbot in September. 9/1, not quite in the same form when seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to firm) 33 days ago, unable to sustain effort.

Form: 153317

Atreides^t,p³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: James Bowen| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 97

11/4

Maiden but shaped better than the result on more than one occasion last term and came on for his reappearance when second at Fontwell last time. Should be on the premises again.

Form: 3533-42

The Dream Goes On³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Oliver Boyden⁽¹⁰⁾| T: R & J & J Insole| OR: 95

12/1

Just modest form over hurdles so far but there has been the promise of better, so no surprise if she takes a step forward now handicapping.

Form: 987-443

Juggernaut^t⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Chad Bament⁽¹⁰⁾| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 93

13/2

4/1, good 1¾ lengths third of 10 to Karannelle in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) 41 days ago. Should be on the premises for all that others appeal as better treated.

Form: 43/1-573

Razzo Italiano^p²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 89| CD

9/1

C&D scorer who made a winning start for his new yard in 7-runner handicap hurdle at Worcester in September. Failed to back it up here last time but too soon to write off.

Form: 355117

Penna Rossa^t,p²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 88| BF

11/4

First run since leaving Helen Nelmes when very good second of 18 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, good, 10/3) 21 days ago. Very well treated on his best form and is worth a chance to go one better.

Form: 9/P-3082

Stick With Me Sam¹⁶⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: R T Dunne| T: T R Gretton| OR: 88

18/1

Related to plenty of winners and stepped up on previous efforts when seventh in a handicap at Uttoxeter 5 months ago. Will probably need this, however.

Form: 686-7

Walk The Moon⁵⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Lily Pinchin| T: A W Carroll| OR: 89

80/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Below form sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (16.7f, good, 33/1) 55 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 354-6

Lady Henrietta^h¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Charlie Maggs⁽⁷⁾| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 88

33/1

Showed more when runner-up in a Stratford bumper in July but hasn't built on that effort switched to hurdling, pulled up in a handicap at Worcester 15 days ago.

Form: 52966P

Ill Reef⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: M Young| OR: 76

200/1

Yet to show anything since joining this yard and looks set for another struggle.

Form: 0/F5-0P

Testflight⁵³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Sean Houlihan| T: Mrs S Gardner| OR: 67

12/1

Still a maiden and, while he arrives on the back of a creditable effort over fences, he faces a tricky assignment from out of the weights back in this sphere.

Form: 63-2U44

Forecasts

Atreides (11/4), Penna Rossa (11/4), Zhang Fei (9/2), Juggernaut (13/2), Razzo Italiano (9/1), The Dream Goes On (12/1), Testflight (12/1), Stick With Me Sam (18/1), Karannelle (28/1), Lady Henrietta (33/1), Walk The Moon (80/1), Ill Reef (200/1)

PENNA ROSSA is well treated on past exploits and was revived by his new stable when second at Exeter three weeks ago, so he takes preference over Atreides, who may yet have more to offer. Juggernaut should give his running once more.
