Mr Le Philosophe^b1,t¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 80

150/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft, 8/1) 10 days ago, pulling hard. Failed to fire on latest start in this sphere and now tried in blinkers.

Diamond Bay^p³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: S M Levey| T: T Ward| OR: 80| C

Caustic^t³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: David Probert| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 77

11/4

6/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 32 days ago. This step up in trip looks a good move and he's a major player off the same mark.

Simiyann^v¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 76| CD

4/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Last of 5 in handicap (10/1) at Kempton (16f) 12 days ago but that was a Class 2 contest and this is probably more his level.

Lusaka^p²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 75

25/1

14/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Wide-margin winner at Nottingham on latest start in this sphere in August but this 8 lb higher mark could prove troublesome.

Form: 1-08861

Little Peter²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Faye McManoman| T: John Berry| OR: 72

3/1

Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Newcastle (16.2f, 11/2) 21 days ago. 3 lb nudge easy to accept and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 2-45671

Alrazeen¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 77| BF| C

5/1

Course winner. 11/4 and blinkered for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 14 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and blinkers discarded. Claims if on-song.

Forecasts

Caustic (11/4), Little Peter (3/1), Simiyann (4/1), Alrazeen (5/1), Diamond Bay (15/2), Golden Flame (10/1), Nibiru (10/1), Lusaka (25/1), Mr Le Philosophe (150/1)

CAUSTIC was comprehensively outpointed by the winner when second at Southwell last month but he is well worth a try over this trip. Owen Burrows' charge earns preference ahead of Little Peter and Alrazeen.
