Off time: 15:08 | Winning time: 4m 45.95s

Orange Diamond^t⁴⁴

5/2

Completed hat-trick of Worcester handicap wins (all 20f) in September and ran up to best when fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle at same course 44 days ago. Tongue strap back on/had wind operation. Ought to go well again.

Form: 6-21114

See The Green^v²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 12-0| J: Freddie Keighley⁽⁷⁾| T: S Hosie| OR: 100

10/3

Posted best effort in this sphere when creditable third of 12 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Stratford (18.7f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and is one for shortlist.

Form: 463-603

Ballynoe Boy³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Callum Bewley| T: N G Richards| OR: 96

8/1

Placed in a pair of good-ground bumpers last season but yet to make an impact in a trio of starts over hurdles. May do better now sent handicapping, though.

Form: 23-968

The Resdev Tyke³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Tom Midgley⁽³⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 96

9/1

Showed a bit in juvenile hurdles last season but well held on 2m Perth handicap reappearance (heavy) last month. Up in trip. Others look better treated.

Form: 33-9

Zamond⁵¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Theo Gillard| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 95| C

12/1

Course winner who got back on scoreboard at Sedgefield (19.9f) in September and ran to similar level when creditable fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at same course (16.8f, good to firm, 10/3) 51 days ago. One to consider.

Form: 533214

Mandarb^h²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Alice Stevens⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 95

22/1

Shaped better than bare result, in first-time hood, when seventh of 12 in novice hurdle (200/1) at Carlisle (20f, soft) 26 days ago. Goes handicapping now and remains open to improvement.

Form: 65-7

Sumatran Tiger²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Finn Lambert⁽³⁾| T: R T Phillips| OR: 93

20/1

Multiple winner on Flat in Jersey and made the frame in a couple of novice hurdles since joining Richard Phillips. Switches to handicapping now and warrants respect.

Form: 84/42

Brave Move²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Liam Harrison| T: F O'Brien| OR: 90

8/1

In good hands and ran his best race over hurdles when fourth of 12 on 19.5f Huntingdon handicap debut/reappearance earlier this month. Could be a player if building on that.

Form: 8/6368-4

Kopa Kilana²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: J M Quinlan| T: Samantha & Jacqueline Coward| OR: 89

28/1

Long-standing maiden over timber who ran poorly at Hereford 25 days ago and is likely best watched on debut for new yard here.

Form: 34228P

Strong As Steel²⁰⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Lee Edwards| T: A W Carroll| OR: 85

12/1

A fairly useful bumper performer but no threat in half a dozen starts over hurdles for James Evans. Figures off an attractive mark, however, if new yard can bring about improvement.

Form: 875P4-P

Westerdale³⁰⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR: 81

17/2

Out of a winning pointer but just minor promise in 4 runs over hurdles. Back from 10 months off with plenty to prove.

Form: 556P-

Marquee Lights²⁹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 77

40/1

Merely hinted at ability last season and needs significant improvement to play a part on handicap debut here.

Form: PP09-

Forecasts

Orange Diamond (5/2), See The Green (10/3), Ballynoe Boy (8/1), Brave Move (8/1), Westerdale (17/2), The Resdev Tyke (9/1), Strong As Steel (12/1), Zamond (12/1), Reel Rosie (14/1), Sumatran Tiger (20/1), Mandarb (22/1), Kopa Kilana (28/1), Marquee Lights (40/1)

Preference is for SEE THE GREEN, who found some improvement when third at Stratford last month and his promising rider can take off a valuable 7 lb here. Zamond and Orange Diamond can also make their presence felt.
