12/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2024 but tongue tied when a creditable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good) 65 days ago. No forlorn hope.

Form: 55959-5

Ben Lomond^p²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Harry Reed| T: Daisy Hitchins| OR: 92

Below form third of 9 in novice hurdle here (16f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Up in trip for his handicap hurdle debut with more needed.

Form: 743-U33

Gillys Lass⁵⁵

50/1

Well-held sixth of 8 in novice hurdle here (16f, good to soft) 55 days ago. Back up in trip for her handicap hurdle debut and needs to step forward.

Form: 6-46

Liloo D'ores^p,t³³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Jack Hogan| T: G Hanmer| OR: 83

20/1

Still a maiden and she came in a below form fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good) 33 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 46/2P-65

Sixty Plus^v¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: James Owen| OR: 76

11/10

Visored for 1st time and much improved when second of 9 in handicap hurdle here (16f, good) 15 days ago. Holds very good form claims back up in trip nudged up just 1 lb.

Form: 8P6-402

For You Buzz⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 80

8/1

Remains winless and came in a below-par fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) 43 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 638P4-5

Noble Recall¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: Harriet Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: A Day| OR: 73| D

85/40

Got off the mark at Southwell in May and backed it up with an excellent second of 8 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good) 15 days ago. Winner has gone in again so he's a likely player off the same mark.

Form: 095-412

Rogue Mission⁶⁶⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 69

12/1

Modest maiden hurdler. Off since coming in last of 11 in Flat handicap at Lingfield 22 months ago for Milton Harris. Still can't be ruled out for his good new yard though.

Form: 5U448/

Forecasts

Sixty Plus (11/10), Noble Recall (85/40), For You Buzz (8/1), Rogue Mission (12/1), Seasett (12/1), Liloo D'ores (20/1), Ben Lomond (28/1), Gillys Lass (50/1), Even Break (66/1)

NOBLE RECALL can race off the same mark as when an excellent recent C&D second (form been franked) so looks the way to go. Sixty Plus rates a big danger though on the back of his improved second here last time out with Seasett and Rogue Mission appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
