Off time: 16:00 | Winning time: 5m 6.19s

Della Casa Lunga^t²⁰²

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: R Patrick| T: C Boultbee-Brooks| OR: 136

33/1

Proved better than ever when scoring readily (on back of a wind op) in a Kempton handicap (24.5f) in December. Underperformed in Grade 2 company at Doncaster and ran poorly away from her own sex at Perth 13 weeks later. Needs to get back on track after 6 months off.

Form: P/52157-

Lac De Constance³⁹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Liam Harrison| T: D Skelton| OR: 131

40/1

Useful over hurdles and was in the process of making an encouraging return from 11 months off when falling at the last at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) in October (still upsides runner-up at the time). Seemingly third string on jockey bookings but can't be taken lightly.

Form: 24653/F-

Go Dante^t²⁴⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 131| C

15/2

Course winner who landed 17-runner Imperial Cup (Handicap) at Sandown (2m) for a second year running in March, sustaining run well to lead close home. Warrants respect reappearing from a 4 lb higher mark.

Form: 59P071-

Honky Tonk Highway²⁹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Tristan Durrell⁽³⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 129

12/1

Listed bumper winner who didn't need to improve on her opening effort over hurdles when making all in 2m listed event at Sandown in December. Much improved when narrowly denied in a valuable novice at Windsor on final outing and likely to progress further now handicapping.

Form: 110/212-

Lawrenny²³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Luke Scott⁽³⁾| T: J Candlish| OR: 127

22/1

Progressive winner in bumpers and did well over hurdles last season, taking 2m novice at Wetherby before good seconds at Newcastle and Sandown. Resumed winning ways on handicap debut at Hexham (16.2f) on final outing and respected reappearing from a 7 lb higher mark.

Form: 1/51221-

Kepler's Law²⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Jack Tudor| T: Christian Williams| OR: 127| D

16/1

Irish point winner who built on his previous promise over hurdles when opening his account in emphatic fashion in 20.5f Leicester novice (heavy) in January. Keener than ideal when well held in 16-runner EBF at Sandown on final outing and has since left L J Morgan. Remains unexposed.

Form: 1/3318-

West To The Bridge³²

Age: 12| Weight: 11-3| J: Miss Heidi Palin⁽⁷⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 125| C| D

25/1

Veteran who scored for the first time in almost 2 years at Wetherby (19.7f) in February. Unsuited by the marked step back in trip minus his usual cheekpieces after 3 months off at Newton Abbot (16.8f) in September but well held in the Silver Trophy at Chepstow last time.

Form: 1-44P50

Lud'or²⁵⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: T Symonds| OR: 123| D

11/5

French recruit who overcame mistakes to land the odds in a 14-runner Wetherby maiden (19.7f, soft) in February. No disgrace in being outclassed by a useful rival at Newbury on final outing and of interest now going handicapping.

Form: 2/23212-

Party Vibes²⁰⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: H D Daly| OR: 120| D

8/1

Dual winner over hurdles who was liberated by the return to a mares event when doubling her tally over fences in 6-runner handicap at Leicester (20.1f) in March. Failed to meet expectations at Cheltenham on final outing but could well get back on track now returning to hurdling after 6 months off.

Form: 31P314-

Malicash²¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 118

15/2

Fairly useful in bumpers for Ewan Whillans and belatedly built on a promising hurdling debut to get off the mark in 8-runner novice at Carlisle (19.3f) in February. Followed up at Kelso (20.9f) but found a double penalty beyond him at this course on final outing. Into handicaps now and needs more.

Form: 254112-

Disco Davis²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 115

5/2

Seemed to relish a return to front-running when getting off the mark in 2m Lingfield maiden (soft) in January. Outstayed by a strong galloper at Warwick next time prior to a creditable sixth in the EBF Final at Sandown. Shaped encouragingly on Uttoxeter reappearance and one to be interested in.

Form: F5126-4

Forecasts

Lud'or (11/5), Disco Davis (5/2), Malicash (15/2), Go Dante (15/2), Party Vibes (8/1), Honky Tonk Highway (12/1), Kepler's Law (16/1), Lawrenny (22/1), West To The Bridge (25/1), Della Casa Lunga (33/1), Lac De Constance (40/1)

Dan Skelton saddles a trio of interesting runners in DISCO DAVIS, Honky Tonk Highway and Go Dante, with the first named receiving the vote following an encouraging reappearance at Uttoxeter last month. The form of Lawrenny's Hexham win in March has worked out well and he's another to consider.
