Tout Sur Moi^t³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: David Noonan| T: Mrs J Williams| OR: 100WS

4/1

Showed promise in bumpers and also displayed a fair level of ability in 5 runs over hurdles. Encouraging start over fences when fourth at Taunton but failed to meet expectations there next time. Worth another chance.

Form: 73-3246

Jessie Lightfoot^t1³⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 12-0| J: S Bowen| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 100| D

9/1

Revitalised by a return to Henry Oliver last spring, scoring over fences at Taunton and Southwell. Was holding her form well after but last 2 starts suggests she's gone off the boil. Tongue strap on 1st time. Engaged 3.45 Market Rasen Tuesday.

Form: 553254

Simple Getaway³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 100| D

5/2

Fetched £180,000 after winning an Irish point but only minor promise on second of his 3 hurdle starts during 2023/24. Type to make a better chaser and offered something to work on when fourth at Exeter on return/handicap bow. Entitled to progress.

Form: P1/924-4

Iron D'ex^p⁵⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Sean Houlihan| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 96| C

10/1

Made a winning start over fences at Ludlow in October and decent efforts in defeat last 2 starts. In the mix if the rain stays away.

Form: PP-1744

Carpe Diem⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Brendan Powell| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 92

28/1

Promise in maiden hurdles last summer before a lesser effort on handicap debut over fences at Huntingdon. Well held back from an absence at Uttoxeter 7 weeks ago and has enough to prove.

Form: 3P356-7

Coal Fire^p⁴⁵¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Price⁽³⁾| T: R L Llewellyn| OR: 88| BF

13/2

Twice a winner over hurdles for Peter Bowen in 2023 but pulled up sole start over fences. Off 15 months ahead of first start for this yard.

Form: 133135-

Mistymal⁵¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 85| BF| D

9/1

Irish point winner who made a winning chasing debut at Hereford in October, forging clear run-in. Went like the best horse at the weights when finishing a close third there next time but proved a complete let-down tried in headgear at Southwell. Worth another chance.

Form: 254-13P

Streamsforth Lad^t⁵⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 85WS

12/1

Showed ability in bumpers but little solid form over hurdles, including starting out for this yard at Bangor on return. Goes up in trip for chase debut.

Form: 7P946-6

Higgs^b⁴⁷

Age: 12| Weight: 10-9| J: James Best| T: S-J Davies| OR: 81| D

50/1

Went through a good spell in May, scoring at Uttoxeter and Ffos Las. Arrives here on a poor run of form, however, so others preferred.

Form: 112PPP

Fashion's Model^b1⁴⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-7| J: Ben Jones| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 79| D

16/1

Sent chasing last season, off the mark on final start of the campaign at Wincanton (20.2f, heavy) in April. No show in a handful of runs so far this term, though, and different headgear now given a whirl.

Form: P1-8P8P

Faitque De L'Isle^p¹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 10-3| J: Miss Lucy Turner⁽⁵⁾| T: H J Evans| OR: 75| D

13/2

On a long losing run but backed up previous effort when third from 3 lb out of the handicap at Leicester 2 weeks ago so not taken lightly racing off his proper mark.

Form: 3P-6443

Forecasts

Simple Getaway (5/2), Tout Sur Moi (4/1), Faitque De L'Isle (13/2), Coal Fire (13/2), Mistymal (9/1), Jessie Lightfoot (9/1), Iron D'ex (10/1), Streamsforth Lad (12/1), Fashion's Model (16/1), Ballinslea Bridge (25/1), Game Line (25/1), Carpe Diem (28/1), Higgs (50/1)

TOUT SUR MOI is given another chance to confirm chase debut promise back down in class. The unexposed Simple Getaway is a potential threat along with Faitque de l'Isle back off his proper mark.
