Winner at Kilbeggan (3m, good) in July. Below par in Gowran handicap last month but good shout here if bouncing back to his best.

15/8
Dual bumper winner who made it third time lucky over hurdles in 2¾m Stratford novice in May. A penalty shouldn't prevent a prominent showing on return.

15/2
Half-brother to Latenightpass. Four-time point winner who ran to a fair level when second in 3¼m Cheltenham hunter chase in May. 2m an inadequate test when well beaten in a pair of Warwick novice hurdles this autumn and this trip much more suitable.

12/1
£65,000 buy after winning his sole point in May 2021 but seen only twice over hurdles in the 3½ years since, latterly fifth of 7 over 2¾m at Stratford 25 days ago, with the reopposing Carrig Kate ahead in second. Needs to build on that.

Placed in a point but looks more of a long-term prospect based on his 2 efforts over hurdles last month.

Bred to have a future but no promise in a Sedgefield bumper and Wetherby novice hurdle 8 months apart.

Winning pointer who was fourth in a Southwell bumper in the spring and ran to a fair level when second of 7 in 2¾m Stratford novice on hurdle debut, with reopposing Night Duty behind in fifth. Should be on the premises again.

Only seventh of 12 in bumper at Warwick (2m, good to soft) on debut in February 2023 but has won twice in the pointing field since. Worth a second look in the betting.

Forecasts

Minella Rescue (15/8), Beaufort Scale (2/1), Carrig Kate (3/1), Latenightrumble (15/2), Night Duty (12/1), Subtle Fortune (25/1), The Big Breac (80/1), Bea My Shadow (300/1)

Verdict

If Gordon Elliott's BEAUFORT SCALE can recapture the form he showed when landing a Kilbeggan maiden in July he's probably the one to beat. Minella Rescue, a winner at Stratford when last seen in May, and last month's Stratford runner-up Carrig Kate are likely to provide the main opposition.
