Presenting Yeats^v¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: R T Dunne| T: R G Hawker| OR: 97| D

22/1

Temperamental sort capitalised on his falling handicap mark (after 7 months off) when winning 7-runner handicap at Stratford (26.4f) in April. Typically failed to back that up when disappointing at Huntingdon earlier this month. Remains to be seen what sort of mood he's in here.

Form: 60681-7

Thirtyfour Thirty^p¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: J Tickle| OR: 95| C

4/1

Course winner hasn't won in his last 12 outings but was well-backed and took something of a step in the right direction when third of 9 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Fairly treated if able to build on that with cheekpieces refitted.

Form: 2996F-3

Ferret Jeeter^t¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Chad Bament⁽⁷⁾| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 87| C

1/1

Lightly-raced type had the benefit of a spin in a void race at this track prior to getting off the mark when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle here (21.8f, good, 13/2) 18 days ago, staying on strongly. Open to further improvement stepping up in trip.

Form: 28769/1

Trevor's Lad^p1⁶⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: K Brogan| T: T Lawes| OR: 85

6/1

Lightly-raced maiden hurdler who might have done better still had he not made a complete mess of the first when third in handicap at Southwell (24.3f, good to soft) in March (also ran in void race here last month). Claims if building on most recent effort in first time cheekpieces.

Form: P/05733-

Quite The Getaway^p1³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: G Sheehan| T: R Bevis| OR: 80

11/2

Arrives on the back of 2 creditable efforts in handicaps on second stint for this yard, latest when fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (23.6f, good to firm) 34 days ago. First time cheekpieces could eek out some improvement with Gavin Sheehan taking over in the saddle.

Form: 96/7454-

Endersen¹²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: James Davies| T: R Rowe| OR: 74

22/1

Remains a maiden following 10 appearances in various race-types under Rules. Isn't one to be interested in.

Form: 9PP/56P-

Glorious Mist^p¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-3| J: Harry Kimber| T: P Butler| OR: 72

18/1

Sported first-time cheekpieces when runner-up over this C&D last June but lesser effort at Stratford when last seen the following month. Fell here earlier this month and has something to prove at present.

Form: P/3P2P-U

Captain Howse^t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: M Goldstein| T: K Jewell| OR: 63

50/1

Flat winner for Sir Mark Prescott but yet to show any form over hurdles. Again out of the weights and looks an easy swerve.

Form: 0P6P8/P

Forecasts

Ferret Jeeter (1/1), Thirtyfour Thirty (4/1), Quite The Getaway (11/2), Trevor's Lad (6/1), Glorious Mist (18/1), Endersen (22/1), Presenting Yeats (22/1), Captain Howse (50/1)

FERRET JEETER stayed on strongly to get off the mark at this course 18 days ago and remains open to further improvement over this longer trip. He can follow up at the expense of Trevor's Lad who's hit the frame the last twice and could build on that with cheekpieces fitted, while Quite The Getaway may also benefit from the application of headgear.
