Whizz Kid^t¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Charlie Hammond| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 124| D

9/2

Fairly useful hurdler who returned (having had a breathing operation) with a respectable effort in a handicap at Wetherby. Likely to need this first experience of chasing.

Form: 14/14F-4

The Kalooki Kid¹⁹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Danny McMenamin| T: N G Richards| OR: 123| D

15/8

Looked potentially useful when winning novice hurdles at Musselburgh and Newcastle before Christmas and was back on track to some degree when fifth here 6 months ago, Type to take to chasing.

Form: 311485-

Doyen Du Bar^h¹⁶¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Craig Nichol| T: Miss P Robson| OR: 120| CD

3/1

Very lightly raced for age but made up for lost time over the winter, winning maiden/novice hurdles. Unexposed over fences and was a bit better than the result when last seen 5 months ago. Not completely dismissed.

Form: 21148-3

Park Annonciade^t¹⁸²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: D A Jacob| T: S R B Crawford| OR: 116| CD

11/4

Looked progressive when winning handicap hurdles at Ayr/Haydock (19f) last November. Broke blood vessel when pulled up at Hexham on chasing debut 6 months ago but likely to show up much better.

Form: 11465-P

Forecasts

Myretown (7/4), The Kalooki Kid (15/8), Park Annonciade (11/4), Doyen Du Bar (3/1), Whizz Kid (9/2), Gua Du Large (25/1)

MYRETOWN had a promising season over hurdles last season but has always promised to peak over fences (scopey ex-pointer), so he's worth a chance to make a successful start in this sphere. Park Annonciade should put a poor chasing debut behind him and The Kalooki Kid is another one who merits consideration.
