Best Odds Guaranteed At Betano Handicap Hurdle

Impressive bumper winner on debut in March. Placed all 4 starts over hurdles but isn't progressing in this sphere. Opening mark looks high enough on balance of his form.

Maiden pointer who opened Rules account at the fourth attempt when staying on well to land a 6-runner handicap hurdle at Fakenham (2m, soft) just before Christmas. Good third at Uttoxeter since and remains unexposed. Headgear applied back down in trip.

Irish point winner who made a successful hurdling debut over C&D in March. Hit and miss since, though ran one of his better races when second at Kempton last time. Needs to back that up.

Lightly-raced maiden who struggled to get involved off a stiff opening mark at Wincanton 5 weeks ago. Back down in trip.

Landed the odds in a Bangor maiden (16.6f, heavy) last season and was making headway when falling 2 out on seasonal/handicap debut at Kempton. Shaped better than bare result next 2 starts and not dismissed out of hand with drop back in trip a positive.

Successful over 23f at Uttoxeter in July but arrives out of form and ideally wants further than this.

Won novice handicaps at Stratford (2m) and Newton Abbot (18.5f) last spring. Close second on hat-trick bid last June but well beaten in 3 outings since.

A fair 2m/2m4f hurdles scorer at his best but not proving easy to catch right this term, only seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, good to soft) on Boxing Day.

Improving type who has already backed a couple of 2m handicaps this term, resuming winning ways with a stylish success at Southwell. Good placed efforts either side of that and rates a serious player.

Has shown big improvement switched to handicaps, off the mark at Uttoxeter 4 weeks ago despite refusing to settle. Hood now applied and almost certainly has more to offer.

Flat winner for Ralph Beckett and has improved switched to handicap company in this sphere, scoring at Leicester before placed next 2 starts. Others look better treated here, though.

Made frame both starts in Irish points but well held in 3 maiden hurdles. Makes handicap debut.
