Seymourjohn^t1¹⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe

10/3

Winning pointer who came in an encouraging third of 12 in his Taunton hurdle debut (19f, good soft) in January. Tongue tied first time. Has the potential for better back from 5 months off.

Form: PP/F123-

Currumbin^h²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: J M Quinlan| T: Michael Keady| D

7/2

Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 2m), creditable effort last time. Could be up to making an impact if taking to his new discipline.

Cornish Saffron¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Tom Broughton⁽⁵⁾| T: F Brennan

50/1

Bred for longer trips and never a threat when sixth of 9 on C&D debut (good to soft) 18 days ago.

Form: 6

Golden Echo⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 95

5/6

Ended her time with Julie Camacho with a Flat win last July and has translated that ability to hurdles for new yard. Length down in second and yet to be asked for maximum effort when brought down at the last in Fontwell novice 6 weeks ago. Engaged 6.57 Newton Abbot Tuesday.

Form: 44-B

Kottayam^t1⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Lee Edwards| T: P Neville

13/2

Half-sister to a couple of useful jumpers and her dam won bumpers in France. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (May 11). Tongue tied for hurdle debut. The betting should help guide to expectations.

Form: 2

Wichita Brave¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: David Noonan| T: Mark Gillard

250/1

Failed to beat a rival in 2 bumpers at the end of 2022 and pulled up in Fontwell novice hurdle on belated return 15 days ago.

Form: 50/P

Forecasts

Golden Echo (5/6), Seymourjohn (10/3), Currumbin (7/2), Kottayam (13/2), Blazing Nelson (25/1), Fully Gaden (50/1), Cornish Saffron (50/1), Wichita Brave (250/1), Hannahs Story (250/1)

SEYMOURJOHN is given the chance to build on a promising hurdle debut at Taunton in January, although Golden Echo would be a major threat if showing up here rather than Newton Abbot on Tuesday. Fair Flat performer Currumbin could also have a part to play if taking to his new discipline.
