Order Of The Dance^t²³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR: 112| D

12/1

Ex-Irish gelding improved on his yard debut to get off the mark in 6-runner handicap hurdle at Ffos Las in October but proved disappointing under a penalty at Worcester the following week, the race perhaps coming too soon. Makes chase debut after 7 months off.

Form: 2/2021P-

13/2

Back to winning ways at Catterick (19f) in February and was soon back to form when runner-up over this trip at Haydock in April. Didn't really convince with his finishing effort when fifth of 8 in handicap chase at Warwick (2½m, good) 40 days ago, though.

Form: 4/4152-5

A Dublin Job²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: James Best| T: S-J Davies| OR: 110| D

50/1

Made it 3-3 over fences for Harry Derham when landing a Warwick handicap in May 2025. Faced a stiff task from out of the weights making yard debut after a 10-month break last time and though he's potentially well treated on old form, he's likely best watched until proving he retains ability.

Form: 11/12P-6

Mighty Fleur^p¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: S Bowen| T: M Bowen| OR: 108| D

1/2

Has improved since being fitted with cheekpieces, winning novice hurdles at Fakenham and Cartmel (17f) in recent weeks. Shaped with some encouragement on chase debut back in January and she's of serious interest reverted to chasing with her yard in a rich vein of form.

Form: 2572-11

Mary^t²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: C J Todd| T: Ian Williams| OR: 107

13/2

Lightly raced since winning at Warwick in September and posted a good second of 5 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (2½m) last month. Looked set to go close again when taking another late fall back chasing at Bangor 3 weeks ago and she should be in the mix if able to post a clean round.

Form: 5145-2F

Ridin Solo^p¹⁹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Theo Gillard| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 103| D

10/1

Gain reward for consistency when taking an 11-runner maiden hurdle at Sedgefield (19.8f, soft) in February 2025. Ran to a similar level in 2 starts over fences in the autumn, latterly when third of 6 at this C&D, but others make more appeal for win purposes after 6 months off.

Forecasts

Mighty Fleur (1/2), Mary (13/2), Imperial Bede (13/2), Ridin Solo (10/1), Order Of The Dance (12/1), Snowy Evening (12/1), A Dublin Job (50/1)

MIGHTY FLEUR represents a yard in red-hot form and can complete the hat-trick on this second try over fences. Mary has been held back by her jumping so far over fences but showed enough prior to falling at Bangor last time to think she can be competitive from this kind of mark, with Imperial Bede taken to complete the 1-2-3.
