Paul Webb Sexagesimal Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 15:13 | Winning time: 5m 20.7s

Ballybegg³⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 12-1| J: Freddie Gordon⁽⁵⁾| T: Kerry Lee| OR: 121| CD

11/2

C&D winner. 6/1, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft) 37 days ago.

Form: 0414-47

Carbon King^t⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 12-1| J: Conor Ring| T: Evan Williams| OR: 121| CD

18/1

Three-time winner over hurdles in Ireland and landed 2 chase victories for this yard last term. However, offered little back in this sphere at Ffos Las last month.

Form: 1PPF1-9

Fils De Roi³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: J J Burke| T: F O'Brien| OR: 117

3/1

Dual winner over timber who showed he retains plenty of ability, back from 12 months off, when creditable sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (16.4f, good, 14/1) 30 days ago. Up in trip. Not out of things.

Form: 390/52-6

Panhandle Slim⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Charlie Maggs⁽⁷⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 115| D

7/1

Proved consistent last term, making the frame in all 6 starts, but ran badly on Warwick handicap debut last month and needs to bounce back.

Form: 42132-7

Wolfspear²⁶⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Lewis Saunders⁽⁷⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 113| CD

11/2

Won twice from 4 starts last term, including over C&D in January. Unseated rider (yet to be asked for effort) at Lingfield when last seen 8 months ago and returns on a workable mark.

Form: 17/121U-

Yealand²¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 112| D

5/1

Won 2 of his 7 starts (at up to 20.3f) last season and ended campaign with good third of 11 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (19.6f, soft). Off 7 months. Fitness has to be taken on trust but he remains relatively low mileage.

Form: 412513-

Coastal Rock²²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 105| BF

10/3

Related to 4 winners and offered plenty to work on in 3 qualifying runs for Harry Fry/Lucinda Russell. Proved disappointing when beaten favourite at Ayr (16f) on debut for new yard earlier this month but he should appreciate this stiffer test of stamina. Player.

Form: 4/34-5

Non-Runners

Hidden History²

Weight: 11-9| Age: 6

T: C Gordon J: Rex Dingle

Forecasts

Fils De Roi (3/1), Hidden History (3/1), Coastal Rock (10/3), Yealand (5/1), Ballybegg (11/2), Wolfspear (11/2), Panhandle Slim (7/1), Carbon King (18/1)

Another chance is given to COASTAL ROCK, who was outpaced over a shorter trip on his recent yard debut at Ayr and is the choice of Sean Bowen. Hidden History and Fils de Roi are feared most.
