Hold The Note^p²²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Craig Nichol| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 103| BF| C

40/1

Course winner who has a very patchy record, pulled up on 3 of last 4 starts, latterly at Perth (23.8f) in April. Reportedly returned lame then and he needs to hit the ground running returning from 7 months off.

Form: 6/6PP3P-

Clovis Boy^t²⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: D R Fox| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 99

10/1

Twice a winner over hurdles last season, doing well to run down a couple of more prominently-ridden ones in a falsely-run race at Newcastle final start. Must be respected now sent chasing for stable continuing amongst the winners.

Form: 41F4P1-

Uptown Harry^p³⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽³⁾| T: Mrs J Walton| OR: 98| C

25/1

Regular here who capitalised on falling mark over 24.5f in March. Hasn't scaled same heights either outing since, well-beaten on the back of 7 months off when thirteenth of 15 in handicap chase (50/1) at this course (20f) 38 days ago. Significantly back up in trip.

Form: 75617-0

Torosay²²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Conner McCann⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 98

10/1

Showed ability over hurdles and really got the hang of things over fences during the spring, running out an emphatic winner at first crack at 3m at Hexham in April. 10 lb higher on return but she's totally unexposed over staying trips.

Form: 0P3221-

Low Mileage³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Jonathon Bewley| T: G Bewley| OR: 97

20/1

Fairly maiden chaser in Ireland but not shown much in 2 chase tries (8 months apart) for present stable, latterly when tenth of 15 in handicap chase at this course (20f, good to soft) 38 days ago. Has it to prove stepping back up in trip.

Form: P5450-0

Dusautior^t,p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 93

10/3

Won 3m novice handicap chase at Bangor in April and posted easily his best effort since when third of 13 in handicap chase at Ffos Las (23.8f, good to soft, 9/1) 21 days ago, challenging from 4 out and plugging on latter stages. One to consider on the back of that.

Form: 931-553

Pawpaw^p,t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 88| D

14/1

Unreliable sort but again put his best foot forward when resumed winning ways in 7-runner handicap chase at Fontwell (26f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Needs to back it up now up 6 lb.

Form: 6P3P51

Gipsy Lee Rose^t,p²³

Age: 10| Weight: 10-13| J: Bruce Lynn| T: N W Alexander| OR: 88| D

40/1

Hit the target twice last season, taking a small-field 2½m Newcastle handicap (heavy) in March. Easy to back and probably needed the run when pulled up at Hexham (24.2f) 3 weeks ago and significant step up required on that if she's to feature.

Form: 31561-P

Don Brocco^t,p¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Conor Rabbitt⁽⁵⁾| T: Gary Rutherford| OR: 82| C

6/1

Dual winner over hurdles back in 2022. 0-10 and more miss than hit over fences last season but entitled to strip fitter for last month's reappearance effort over hurdles here (24.6f). Returns to chasing operating from career low mark.

Form: P2465-6

Toombridge^t²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: C O'Farrell| T: I A Duncan| OR: 80

9/2

Runner-up in an Irish point and posted his best run under Rules to date when third of 6 on handicap chase debut here (20.9f) in March. However, not scaled same heights in 3 subsequent outings, seventh of 12 in handicap at Ayr 4 weeks ago. Up in trip.

Form: 8036-U7

Croagh Patrick^b,t¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Charlotte Jones| T: S England| OR: 76| C

14/1

On a long losing run and hasn't showed enough in three starts since returning from a mid-summer break to make him of interest here. Blinkers back on in place of visor.

Form: 36466P

Iturgeon Du Breuil^p³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: F P Murtagh| OR: 76

9/1

Placed on second of 2 starts in points. Improved on previous hurdles exploits when placed in pair of handicaps in the spring but hasn't kicked on subsequently. Switch to chasing needs to spark some improvement.

Form: 3-26058

Gibberwell^b²³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: J Coulson| OR: 75

9/1

Infrequent winner who ran creditably following 6 months off when third of 9 in handicap chase (12/1) at Hexham (24.2f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Needs to pull out more if he's to resume winning ways here, however.

Form: 7P24-53

Forecasts

Dusautior (10/3), Toombridge (9/2), Don Brocco (6/1), Gibberwell (9/1), Iturgeon Du Breuil (9/1), Torosay (10/1), Clovis Boy (10/1), Croagh Patrick (14/1), Pawpaw (14/1), Low Mileage (20/1), Uptown Harry (25/1), Gipsy Lee Rose (40/1), Hold The Note (40/1)

CLOVIS BOY ended last season with a career-best success over hurdles at Newcastle in the spring and, now going chasing with his yard firmly amongst the winners, he could be worth chancing to make the perfect start. Stablemate Torosay was another who ended last season on the up over fences and she's a threat. Dusautior and Pawpaw are others to consider.
