2/1
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.

80/1
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.

3/1
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.

25/1
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.
