Age: 5| Weight: 12-2| J: Paul O'Brien| T: W Greatrex| OR: 112| D

2/1

Winning Irish pointer who justified support following a breathing operation/11 weeks off in novice hurdle at Ffos Las in May, making all in good style. Very much the type to improve again now handicapping/chasing.

Form: 13B35-1

Kayce Dutton¹⁸⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: C J Todd| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 109| D

15/2

Had been knocking on the door over fences and finally off the mark in this sphere at Market Rasen in May, responding well to headgear but suited by run of the race. 4 lb rise looks on the harsh side and headgear is left off for this return.

Form: 27225-1

Paper Mill^p¹⁹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds| OR: 107| D

6/4

Multiple point winner. Easily best effort under Rules when fourth of 10 in hunter chase at Cheltenham (26f, good) in this headgear in May. Opening mark looks a fair one starting out for in-form yard.

Form: 32113-4

Moonlit Potter²⁴³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Luke Scott⁽³⁾| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 105| BF

11/1

Winning hurdler who went close to making a winning chase bow at Huntingdon on return last season. Went the wrong way after but starts the new season off a tempting mark for new yard.

Police Academy²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Ben Sutton⁽⁵⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 104| D

20/1

First past the post in this sphere at Uttoxeter in June (subsequently disqualified owing to a prohibited substance). Blotted her copybook 4 months on at Fakenham 4 weeks ago, set to finish a below-par third when refusing at the last. Needs to leave that behind.

Form: 256-5DR

Ali Star Bert⁴⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: J M Quinlan| T: S A Harris| OR: 93| CD

5/1

Runner-up twice at Cartmel in summer but below form since and others appeal more despite sliding mark.

Paper Mill (6/4), Golan Loop (2/1), Ali Star Bert (5/1), Kayce Dutton (15/2), Moonlit Potter (11/1), Police Academy (20/1)

GOLAN LOOP got off the mark in decisive style following a breathing operation at Ffos Las in May and is fancied to make a winning handicap/chase debut. Moonlit Potter is potentially on a nice mark starting out for this yard so is feared most.
