Horse A-Z
Progressive handicap hurdler who got off the mark at Exeter (3/1 favourite) 36 days ago, clearly well suited by the step up to 23f. Up 4 lb but open to further improvement and big shout.

Fairly useful bumper performer who came close second on handicap bow at Ffos Las in November. Back to form when fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (10/1) 22 days ago, led 2 out but hung left and headed. Should have finished closer that day and in the mix if he can keep straighter.

Fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Exeter 36 days ago, taking another step forward and giving impression he's a thorough stayer. Open to further progress over slightly longer trip.

Easily won handicap chase at Ludlow 30 days ago on return/stable debut but disappointing fifth of 8 in handicap chase at Huntingdon (2/1 favourite) week later, making mistakes. Returns to hurdles with cheekpieces back on and may get back on track.

Age: 6|  Weight: 10-9| J: Bryan Carver| T: J Scott| OR:  91
Maiden who had been disappointing this season but produced her most encouraging effort when third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (8/1) 18 days ago, running without her usual hood. Stepping up in trip and capable of better if she stays.

Has shown minor promise at best in novice hurdles and fared better when fourth of 11 in handicap at this course (12/1) 16 days ago, though his opening mark demanded more. Steps up markedly in trip now (bred to suit) and could find improvement. Yard also saddle Don't Tell Rosie.

Bredon Hill Dartp33
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-2| J: Tabitha Worsley(3)| T: Mrs S Gardner| OR:  84
Landed a weak handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot last June. Fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Hereford (12/1) a month ago, failed to see his race out and perhaps isn't the thorough stayer his record suggests. Bit to prove.

Forecasts

Call Me Legend (2/1), Don't Tell Rosie (3/1), Annie Express (5/1), Seatoit (6/1), Badentaggart (10/1), Crossgales King (10/1), Bredon Hill Dart (14/1)

Verdict

CALL ME LEGEND looked well suited by the step up to 23f when opening his account at Exeter and is open to further improvement. He's fancied to follow up, while Don't Tell Rosie arrives on the back of a season-best third at Chepstow and looks a danger if staying the longer trip.
