The Paddy Pie^p¹⁶

Age: 13| Weight: 12-6| J: Miss Venetia Thompson⁽⁷⁾| T: W Wanless| OR: 98

33/1

Grand servant for previous connections who won 4 of his final 6 starts in 2024/25. Has moved yards since last seen under Rules 12 months ago and arrives fit from points (last of 3 finishers, Apr 6).

Form: 116-PP3

Mr Glass^t³⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 12-2| J: Mr Michael Treneer⁽⁷⁾| T: Deborah Treneer| OR: 112| D

3/1

Made successful start in this discipline at Wincanton in January 2025 but rather in-and-out since, doing all he could on first outing since leaving Paul Nicholls when third of 12 at Exeter just over 5 weeks ago.

Form: 1/1P-P33

Est Illic^p¹⁸

Age: 12| Weight: 11-12| J: Miss Jess Stewart⁽⁷⁾| T: Ryan Bradford| OR: 69| D

12/1

Temperamental veteran who is winless since 2020. First run for yard after leaving Sarah-Jayne Davies and remains easy to oppose despite being a recent point winner (beat sole other finisher, Apr 4).

Form: 7-75PP1

Fix At All^p²³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr T Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: Callum Bickers-price| OR: 105| C

10/3

Not disgraced in hunters last 3, unable to go with a pair operating at a higher level at this course (2½m) just over 3 weeks ago. Place claims.

Form: 0-PP323

Potters Party^p,t⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Miss Ellie Callwood⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Kelly Morgan| OR: 122| D

5/4

Fairly useful chaser at best for Henry de Bromhead. Fit from points and went with zip in a first-time visor before unseating rider eighth at Hexham 9 days ago and the cheekpieces are quickly reapplied. Leading claims.

Form: P-7423U

Prohus Yank¹⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Huw Edwards⁽³⁾| T: Miss H Brookshaw| OR: 123| D

17/2

Didn't show much in a handful of points last winter but in process of running a cracker on first Rules start for present yard when unseating last in hunter over C&D in February, likely he'd have split a fairly useful pair. Failed miserably to repeat that at Leicester later in the month, however.

Form: P3P-UP5

Non-Runners

Amenon¹⁶

Weight: 11-12| Age: 11

T: Fred Timmis J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Potters Party (5/4), Mr Glass (3/1), Fix At All (10/3), Prohus Yank (17/2), Est Illic (12/1), Amenon (14/1), The Paddy Pie (33/1)

A tricky finale to solve but POTTERS PARTY was going with zip before unseating at Hexham 9 days ago so Kelly Morgan's charge gets the tentative nod back in his usual headgear at the expense of Prohus Yank, who needs to leave a lesser effort behind but can. Mr Glass looks best of the remainder.
