3/1

Left bumper form behind when winning weak 4-runner novice hurdle (10/11) at Huntingdon (19.6f, good to soft) on hurdles bow, well on top finish despite obvious inexperience. Off 6 months. Should improve on that.

Form: 01-

4/11

Fairly useful on Flat in France and this free-going, front runner has a made a solid start to her hurdle career, winning for a second time when accounting for 4 rivals in 2m Warwick handicap in June. Headstrong ways proved his undoing at Uttoxeter a month later.

Form: 2P1-214

66/1

Modest AW winner who came to hurdling late and looked anything but a natural at Worcester a week ago.

33/1

Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in 5-runner bumper at Worcester a year ago. Respectable fourth under a penalty at Perth later that month but left Olly Murphy after and was well held at Chepstow in November. Hurdles debut.

No show in 2 bumpers and same story sent hurdling following 17 months off in July. Hood on.

11/1

Disappointing maiden on Flat (stays 1m) and modest form at best for current connections. Minor promise only on recent hurdles bow.

Form: 6

20/1

Passing Glance filly who produced a promising first effort behind an unbeaten Irish-raider when second in 10-runner Worcester bumper in July. In nothing like the same form back there 3 weeks later and didn't take to hurdling on opening try.

Forecasts

Soleil D'arizona (4/11), John Barbour (11/8), Datsalrightcharlie (3/1), Huxley (11/1), Midnight Pass (20/1), Peace Motivator (33/1), Straightnupsoldier (50/1), Flying Panther (66/1), Sir Rodney (300/1)

JOHN BARBOUR will find this a good deal easier than the warm handicap he contested at Sandown in the spring and given the yard he represents, fitness is no concern on his return to action. Datsalrightcharlie can leave the bare form of his Huntingdon win behind and is the obvious threat.
