De Kingpin^p³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-2| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling| OR: 117| C

7/2

Back to winning ways with a career best in 12-runner handicap hurdle here last month. Not out of things back up in trip despite a 7 lb weights rise.

Form: 30-4P31

High Treason^t,p1³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-1| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 116

12/1

Winless since April 2024 and he added to a patchy record when ninth of 18 in 3m handicap hurdle at Ascot 34 days ago. Tried in different headgear now.

Form: 4U-6659

Livingit Du Large²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-13| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 114

20/1

Lightly-raced winner who got back on track after a breathing operation when second of 4 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (22f) 26 days ago. Not ruled out on just his second go in handicap company.

Form: 31-3P2

Jackpot Cauveliere^p1⁷¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Paul O'Brien| T: Harry Derham| OR: 114| D

7/1

Points winner who built on his hurdling debut when fourth of 12 in novice hurdle at Ffos Las in January. This step up in trip should suit and he looks to start life in handicaps off a lenient mark too. Cheekpieces added. Interesting.

Form: 1-44

Name Me Nicely³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 113

10/1

Lightly-raced sort who took a step forward on his handicap debut when third of 8 at Ludlow (21f) 30 days ago. Needs considering eased 1 lb.

Form: 3/6-7U43

Duffry Trixs²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Harry Bannister| T: R Bandey| OR: 111

5/1

Got off the mark in a Taunton maiden (19f) last February. Lightly raced since and has failed to go though he was set a lot to do when 11th in handicap hurdle at Wincanton 23 days ago.

Form: 021-350

Times Are Green⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: C J Todd| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 110

18/1

Runner-up in a 23f Chepstow novice in December but he made mistakes when a below-form seventh of 12 in novice at Ffos Las in January. Could still do better now back up in trip for his handicap debut after a break.

Form: 645-727

Either Or^t⁵³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson| OR: 110| D

9/2

Resumed winning ways in 3m Doncaster handicap in December and backed it up with a good second of 5 in handicap at Plumpton (25f) following month. Firmly in the picture with that form having been very well advertised since.

Form: P44-612

Mini Mildred^p²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: R P McLernon| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 110

25/1

Modest Flat winner who also scored on her hurdles debut at Les Landes in June 2024. Returned to this sphere after an unsuccessful stint chasing with a good fourth of 15 in handicap at Wincanton 23 days ago. Considered.

Form: 7/1-4554

Douglas Hyde³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: S Bowen| T: Miss R Curtis| OR: 109| D

8/1

Irish point winner who has been placed on all his four runs since sent hurdling this term, second of 3 in novice at Hereford (25f) last month when fading late on. Can make his presence felt back in handicap company.

Form: 22-3322

Swift Jet^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: David Bass| T: R T Phillips| OR: 107| D

18/1

Advanced his form back over hurdles under more positive tactics when getting off the mark in 3m handicap at Doncaster 21 days ago. Up 7 lb but he can go well again.

Form: 6-P3FF1

Ring O Roses^p²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Brendan Powell| T: Miss H C Knight| OR: 107

40/1

It's now 14 runs since her last win in 2023. Fared better than of late when fifth of 6 in 3m handicap hurdle at Ludlow 22 days ago but she needs to back it up with cheekpieces refitted.

Form: 23-U8P5

Kosasiempre^p1³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds| OR: 103

12/1

A fair winning hurdler/chaser. Scored over fences at Hereford in November and not discredited back in this sphere when third of 5 over C&D 31 days ago. Enters calculations with cheekpieces added off a 2 lb lower mark.

Form: 43-7143

Staff Sergeant Len^p⁶⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: K Brogan| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 97

33/1

Ungenuine type who took little interest when pulled up in 3m handicap chase at Ludlow in January on his final run for Syd Hosie. Needs this yard switch and change of code to spark a major resurgence.

Form: 26-63UP

Forecasts

De Kingpin (7/2), Either Or (9/2), Duffry Trixs (5/1), Jackpot Cauveliere (7/1), Douglas Hyde (8/1), Name Me Nicely (10/1), Kosasiempre (12/1), High Treason (12/1), Gold In The Rivers (14/1), Rialannah (14/1), Swift Jet (18/1), Times Are Green (18/1), Livingit Du Large (20/1), Mini Mildred (25/1), Staff Sergeant Len (33/1), Ring O Roses (40/1)

This is wide open but it could prove to side with Harry Derham's handicap debutant JACKPOT CAUVELIER who looks to have got in on an attractive mark and shaped as though this longer trip would suit when fourth in a Ffos Las novice last time. Either Or could emerge as the main danger with the form of her Plumpton second having been franked. Breakthrough Doncaster scorer Swift Jet also enters calculations along wtih De Kingpin, Name Me Nicely and Douglas Hyde.
