7/1

Back to best when winning in good style at Perth in April. Not in same form since but step back in the right direction when third at Fontwell 3 weeks ago and back down in class.

Form: P21-P83

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁵⁾| T: T Symonds| OR: 131| BF| D

15/8

Improved on hurdles form straight away when making a winning chase bow at Exeter in January, gamely holding off the hot favourite. Probably should have made it 2-2 over fences at Sandown following month (conceded first run) and should have more to offer this season.

Primoz^p1,t³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: D R Fox| T: L Russell & M Scudamore| OR: 129| BF| C

11/2

A chaser on looks and impressive when scoring on return/debut over fences here over a year ago. Made the most of a good opportunity to double chase tally in a match in February before having excuses in big-field festival handicaps. Proving expensive to follow so far this season, though. Headgear on.

Form: 3107-23

Cerendipity¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: G Sheehan| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 122| C| D

13/8

Held his form well last season, landing the odds at Newcastle in March. Good second at Stratford on return and this consistent sort should go well again.

Form: 24134-2

William Of York^t³³⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: Ross Chapman| T: R Menzies| OR: 122| C| D

28/1

Completed a hat-trick over hurdles for Dan Skelton and repeated the feat for his current yard over fences at Carlisle in April 2024. However, not seen since finishing lame on return there last season in December. Headgear left off.

Form: 53111/P-

Geryville^b¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-6| J: B S Hughes| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 116| CD

12/1

Added another C&D handicap to his tally in January. Just the one decent effort since, though needed comeback run here 2 weeks ago. May need this again.

Forecasts

Cerendipity (13/8), Issam (15/8), Primoz (11/2), Parisencore (6/1), Heltenham (7/1), Vintage Fizz (7/1), Geryville (12/1), William Of York (28/1)

ISSAM should probably still be unbeaten over fences and can make a winning start to the season having performed well in the Welsh Champion Hurdle on his reappearance last term. The consistent Cerendipity should go well again, while Heltenham took a step back in the right direction at Fontwell.
