Seventeen runs since his last win in 2020 and he came in last of 18 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (21f, soft) 26 days ago. Hard to warm to.

Scored at Newton Abbot in August but only ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (23.6f, good to firm) 60 days ago. Others appeal more.

7/2
Resumed winning ways in 9-runner handicap hurdle at Exeter (23.1f, good to soft) 23 days ago, digging deep. Can give another good account despite 4 lb weights rise.

Built on earlier promise to gain a first win for his current yard in 7-runner handicap hurdle at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Expected to be bang there off an unchanged mark.

Arrives in good nick, second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Up 2 lb but he's in the mix once more.

C&D winner but he came in a below-form tenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (25f, good) 38 days ago. Blinkers back on. Unreliable individual.

9/1
Remains a maiden after 20 runs but he recorded a respectable fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (21.6f, soft) 17 days ago. One to consider.

Forecasts

Tzarmix (11/8), Despereaux (11/4), Ri Na Cuirte (7/2), Blue In The West (9/1), Braganza Bay (12/1), Faded Fantasy (25/1), The Jam Man (100/1)

Verdict

Alastair Ralph's TZARMIX can race off the same mark as when going in at Ludlow a week ago so is hard to oppose here. Despereaux comes here in good form but could have to settle for runner-up spot once more with gutsy Exeter victor Ri Na Cuirte also not discounted.

  1. Tzarmix11/8
  2. Despereaux11/4
  3. Ri Na Cuirte7/2
