Onewayortother^p²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: K Brogan| T: T Lawes| OR: 100

8/1

Fair maiden chaser who shaped as if the run was needed after 10 months off at Uttoxeter. Showed up better than the distance beaten suggests at Stratford next time but will need to sharpen up his jumping considerably if he's to make an impact here.

Form: 4/333-60

Rehill Relic^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Andrews⁽³⁾| T: S Allwood| OR: 98| D

5/1

Point winner who was finally off the mark over hurdles when landing a Sedgefield maiden in April. Shaping as if better for the run when departing at Bangor on return/chase bow.

Form: 34721-F

Steady The Ship¹⁹¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: S Cameron| OR: 96| CD

25/1

Dual winning pointer, fell last time (May 2025). Well held in hunters last season for Philip Rowley.

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Alice Stevens⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss C Dyson| OR: 93| C

Le Beau Gosse²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-5| J: Craig Nichol| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 100

25/1

Showed a bit over hurdles and fences in France for D. Bressou but wasn't seen to best effect on his British debut after 4 months off in handicap hurdle at Bangor 4 weeks ago, racing well off the pace.

Form: 5-P58

Ceolwulf^p²¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: S Bowen| T: Fionn McSharry| OR: 91| BF| D

11/4

Has evidently had his problems got off the mark at Warwick in March, showing a nice attitude. Left the impression he failed to stay there following month and worth another chance back down in trip.

Form: 643/215-

Valence D'Aumont¹²

Age: 11| Weight: 10-11| J: Danny McMenamin| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 83| D

11/4

Capitalised on a reduced mark with a game display at Catterick (19.2f) in January. Mixed record since but better for return when third at Market Rasen 12 days ago. Respected.

Form: 6153-03

Jack Doyen^b³²⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: J M Quinlan| T: B I Case| OR: 81| D

11/1

Weak finisher who was placed all 4 starts last season. Remains vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 24/3223-

Bravethewaves^t,p²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Toby Wynne| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 79

11/2

Pair of chase wins at the start of 2025 but out of form since.

Form: 51P-779

Forecasts

Ceolwulf (11/4), Valence D'Aumont (11/4), Rehill Relic (5/1), Bravethewaves (11/2), Onewayortother (8/1), Jack Doyen (11/1), Le Beau Gosse (25/1), Steady The Ship (25/1), Iddergem (66/1)

CEOLWULF left the impression he failed to stay at Warwick in April and is worth another chance having shown a good attitude to win there the time before. Valence d'Aumont was better for return when third at Market Rasen and has now dipped below his last winning mark, while Jack Doyen is more place than win material.
