Byzantine Empire^t²³

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Shane Fenelon| T: Mrs A M Thorpe| OR: 100

15/2

One-time fairly useful chaser but struggling for form at present, though has hinted at revival over trip too far last 2 starts (has since left John & Rhys Flint). Distance a concern once again.

Form: 3P-6556

Zacony Rebel^b,t²³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: Tabitha Worsley| T: S-J Davies| OR: 95| D

10/1

Ended losing run at Worcester in July but not in same form next 2 starts and not the easiest to catch right.

Form: 559195

Hobie^t¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Charlie Maggs| T: David Dennis| OR: 94| D

3/1

Capitalised on a reduced mark after 13 months off when scraping home in handicap hurdle at Worcester and followed up back over fences there 18 days ago, again coming out on top in a tight finish. Must be highly respected in current mood.

Form: 2/287-11

Sweet Nightingale^t1²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Callum Pritchard| T: P Gundry| OR: 88

9/1

Modest handicap hurdler who won mares event at Newton Abbot in in early-2022/23. Unraced over hurdles since that term and unplaced in 6 starts on Flat in 2025. Not an obvious chasing type.

Form: 313374/

King Of The Story^t²³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: Freddie Gordon| T: P Gundry| OR: 87| D

15/2

Improved with back-to-back Worcester victories in July. Let down by jumping in his hat-trick bid there last month and no surprise if he bounced back.

Form: 78-411P

Annie Don¹⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Dylan Johnston| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 83

10/1

Placed in Irish points but well held in bumper/over hurdles (latest after a breathing operation). Showed a bit more on handicap/chase debut when third of 4 over C&D in March (found to have bled) but needs to step up again on first run since.

Form: 2/09563-

Calagogo^t,v³⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: Jamie Brace| T: Stephen Allen| OR: 82| D

10/1

One-time fairly useful hurdler for Gordon Elliott but little form for current yard, including over fences.

Form: P6-2PPP

Gone In Sixty¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Alice Stevens| T: A M Hales| OR: 82| D

11/4

Belatedly off the mark in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (20f) in June. Back to form when going close off lower chase mark at Stratford 17 days ago and obvious claims with a repeat.

Form: 7-31452

Bahtiyar^p¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Murray Dodd⁽³⁾| T: M Young| OR: 78

33/1

Long-standing maiden who makes limited appeal.

Form: 4-453PP

Forecasts

Gone In Sixty (11/4), Hobie (3/1), King Of The Story (15/2), Byzantine Empire (15/2), Sweet Nightingale (9/1), Calagogo (10/1), Annie Don (10/1), Zacony Rebel (10/1), Bahtiyar (33/1)

HOBIE has returned in top form after an absence and can complete the hat-trick. Gone In Sixty was collared only in the dying strides at Stratford last time and rates the main threat ahead of King of The Story, who was let down by his jumping at Worcester but was thriving before that.
