Mark Nield Wealth Management Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 14:45 | Winning time: 4m 15.02s

Avalon Beach³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Danny McMenamin| T: C Grant| OR: 100| D

13/2

Held his form well since winning maiden at Sedgefield in November, making his effort sooner than ideal in 2½m handicap there last time.

Form: 515236

Stylish Recruit^p,t⁶⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: P W Wadge| T: A M Thomson| OR: 95

20/1

Has lost his way over fences (pulled up at Newcastle in January) and hard to be confident of a revival back over hurdles.

Form: 0-3P5PP

Mr Lincoln³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Sean Quinlan| T: I Jardine| OR: 93

9/1

Yet to fire for new yard, finishing seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (following breathing operation) latest, though he's slipped to a potentially favourable mark and may benefit from drying conditions.

Form: 9/3-5877

Heritier^p,t⁵¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: Lizzie Quinlan| OR: 89| C| D

22/1

Hasn't tasted success since winning at this course in December 2024 and while too free switched to front-running tactics at Catterick last time, his form before that was hardly inspiring.

Form: 47-F584

Hourless^t⁸⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr John Dixon⁽⁷⁾| T: J E Dixon| OR: 88

9/2

Mark continues to tumble, making it 0-12 in handicap hurdles when fifth of 11 at Wetherby over Christmas. Tongue strap goes back on.

Form: 646845

Penn Avenue¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR: 98

5/1

Fair Flat winner who has proved consistent rather than progressive over hurdles, third in 2m handicap at Wincanton latest. Should give her running once more.

Form: 34333

Scots Poet^b,t³⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: C O'Farrell| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 86| D

9/2

On a long losing run, but that's reflected in his mark, and there was some encouragement to take from latest third of 9 at Musselburgh. One to consider.

Form: 344733

National Question^p³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Joshua Thompson⁽⁵⁾| T: A Nicol| OR: 83| D

15/2

Narrowly landed second success of season at Sedgefield in January but ran too badly to be true (having been easy to back) at Musselburgh last time.

Form: 512515

Ruler Legend⁴⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Jack Hogan| T: G Hanmer| OR: 80

13/2

Winless since early 2024 and failed to build on minor promise shown on stable debut when sixth of 7 in handicap at Sedgefield.

Form: 6-6F656

Breadalbane Lass^p,t⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Toby Wynne| T: R M Smith| OR: 73

10/1

Chased home subsequent winner over C&D last season and should appreciate drop back in distance having again finished well held over 2½m at Newcastle last time.

Form: 25-0666

Balranald^p⁸⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 10-2| J: Joe Williamson| T: Mrs A C Hamilton| OR: 71| D

40/1

Continued out of sorts when well beaten at Sedgefield in December and races from 3 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 4-62857

Forecasts

Scots Poet (9/2), Hourless (9/2), Penn Avenue (5/1), Ruler Legend (13/2), Avalon Beach (13/2), National Question (15/2), Disco Annie (8/1), Mr Lincoln (9/1), Breadalbane Lass (10/1), Stylish Recruit (20/1), Heritier (22/1), Balranald (40/1)

MR LINCOLN could be worth a chance on his second start following a breathing operation. Scots Poet finds himself on a handy mark and is considered, while Penn Avenue should give her running once again.
