Overcame mistakes to make it 3 wins from last 5 starts in 4-runner handicap at Ludlow 2 weeks ago. That is anything but a solid piece of form though, so 7 lb rise may prevent the follow up.

Won back-to-back handicaps over fences this time last year and cashed in on a lower hurdles mark at Wincanton 12 days ago. That wasn't a deep race but he's clearly in good order back over the larger obstacles.

Has worked his way back to form this season following a lengthy absence, returning to winning ways in handicap at Plumpton (17f, soft) in February. Found 19.9f slightly too much of a test at Huntingdon and better expected on drying ground returned to 2m.

At his best when there's a real emphasis on speed and he cashed in on a reduced mark at Stratford 4 weeks ago, suited by how the race developed. Back up 5 lb but he can remain competitive.

Hasn't won since 2023 but went close in Perth handicap hurdle on final start for Stuart Crawford (sold for £36,000) last spring and confirmed return to form for this stable when second of 5 at Plumpton 3 weeks ago. Looks a major player up 1 lb for that.

Now 2 lb below the mark he defied at Plumpton last spring but only one effort of note since. Recent spin over hurdles should at least have put him spot on for this.

Forecasts

Icare Grandchamp (9/4), Homme D'Un Soir (5/2), Park Annonciade (10/3), Rumoursareflying (11/2), Harel Du Marais (7/1), Flamelco (25/1)

Verdict

PARK ANNONCIADE confirmed he's back in very good order for his new yard when worn down only late at Plumpton 3 weeks ago and a repeat of that effort may well suffice. There are 3 last-time-out winners in opposition, but Icare Grandchamp looks the chief threat.

  1. Park Annonciade10/3
  2. Icare Grandchamp9/4
  3. Harel Du Marais7/1
