Sean Og²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Henry Brooke| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 100| BF| CD

9/2

A three-time chase winner last season. Has shaped better than the result on both starts this summer and back on his last winning mark. Respected.

Form: 614P-34

Lermoos Legend^p³⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: James Bowen| T: M Bowen| OR: 100| BF| C

11/4

Course winner who arrives on the back of good runner-up efforts around 2m at Ffos Las and this venue last month. Just as effective over this sort of trip. Should go well again.

Form: 41PP-22

Whoshotthesheriff^b,t³⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-13| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Lizzie Quinlan| OR: 99

25/1

Useful chaser in his prime for Phil Kirby but is more than 3 years without a win and fourth is the best he's managed in 6 outings for current yard. Didn't get the chance to show whether blinkers would make a difference last time, falling around halfway.

Jobesgreen Lad^t,p1³²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-13| J: Mr G Barfoot-Saunt| T: Mrs Tracey Barfoot-Saunt| OR: 99| D

150/1

Fair chase winner for Tom George in 2022. Not seen under Rules since a fall at Ludlow in December 2023 but he has placed in points for new connections this spring.

Form: 46F/2-33

Greenways⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Conor Ring| T: R Potter| OR: 83

16/1

Hurdle winner for Tom Symonds but well beaten in his 2 outings over fences, latterly finishing a remote fourth at Market Rasen on last week's first outing for Ryan Potter. Needs to leave that well behind with the cheekpieces he's worn in recent outings left off now.

Form: 43P32-4

Unwanted Attention^t,p²²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: S Bowen| T: M Bowen| OR: 83| D

2/1

Market Rasen winner last summer and also runner-up over C&D (both under Sean Bowen). Lost his way for Ryan Potter in the autumn but potentially well treated if bouncing back to form for new stable after a break. Market support could prove significant.

Form: 23PU8P-

Judicial Review^b,t³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: B S Hughes| T: James Moffatt| OR: 80| CD

6/1

C&D win last August on only his second outing over fences. Ran as if needing his first outing since when down the field over 25.5f here 5 weeks ago. Back down in trip now and Brian Hughes takes the ride.

Form: 750/41-9

Follow Your Arrow¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-7| J: Jonathon Bewley| T: G Bewley| OR: 79

6/1

In good form at Hexham this summer. Placed over C&D in 2023 but recent efforts at this venue haven't been so good.

Form: 47P-322

Forecasts

Unwanted Attention (2/1), Defence Witness (5/2), Lermoos Legend (11/4), Sean Og (9/2), Judicial Review (6/1), Follow Your Arrow (6/1), Greenways (16/1), Whoshotthesheriff (25/1), Derracrin (25/1), Jobesgreen Lad (150/1)

It might be worth taking a chance that UNWANTED ATTENTION bounces back to form with a bang on his first outing for Mickey Bowen. Last month's course runner-up Lermoos Legend completes a strong hand for the stable. Sean Og and last month's C&D scorer Defence Witness are others likely to have a say.
