Hell Red^t²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 12-2| J: Bryan Carver| T: D Summersby| OR: 122| BF| C

22/1

Course winner. 14/1, first run since leaving Paul Nicholls when a fair fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (21.6f, good to firm) 9 months ago. Runner-up in a point 25 days ago though so can't be totally dismissed back chasing.

Form: P/3124-2

Salley Gardens^p,t³³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-13| J: S Bowen| T: J Coulson| OR: 119| CD

13/2

Signed off for Olly Murphy with back-to-back wins at Southwell in March and over C&D 33 days ago. Up another 5 lb but he's not taken lightly starting out for a new yard here.

Form: 24251-1

Hecouldbetheone^p²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: James Owen| OR: 118| BF| D

15/8

Revitalised for his current yard, adding to his hurdling tally at Plumpton in April. Posted a very good second of 5 there last time so he's a likely player again off a 3 lb lower mark back chasing.

Form: 02515-2

Do Your Job^p,t²⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-10| J: Lily Pinchin| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 116| D

16/1

Unreliable individual who has twice run well below par in small-field handicaps since going in at Wetherby in March. Others appeal more.

Form: 75314-3

No But I Will^t,v⁷⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Liam Harrison| T: R L Llewellyn| OR: 108| BF

10/3

Not one to rely on and he was pulled up in handicap chase at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft) 77 days ago. Others are more persuasive.

Form: 0PP42P-

Golden Ambition^b²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling| OR: 107

9/4

Looked rusty after 4 months off when a well-held fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good) 21 days ago. Goes over fences now and this fairly useful dual hurdles scorer can't be discounted.

Form: 21129-4

Forecasts

Hecouldbetheone (15/8), Golden Ambition (9/4), No But I Will (10/3), Salley Gardens (13/2), Do Your Job (16/1), Hell Red (22/1)

HECOULDBETHEONE has been in excellent form over hurdles since joining James Owen and could prove the answer now switched to fences off a reduced mark. Hat-trick seeking Salley Gardens rates the obvious threat starting out for his new handler ahead of chasing newcomer Golden Ambition and course scorer Hell Red.
