8/1
Maiden who was easy to back when below form on return at Downpatrick in May. Yard going better now and best not judged too harshly on latest run over C&D given she needed a stronger gallop.

50/1
Has hinted at more ability than her form figures might imply so she's a potential improver now handicapping. Could do with brushing up on her jumping.

16/1
Fit from hurdling and shed maiden status in 8-runner handicap on Flat in April. Well held in both codes since and needs to settle better (blinkers left off) to see it out over this far.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-4| J: Paul O'Brien| T: K Pickard| OR:  86
4/1
Successful on sole outing in bumpers and shaped better than previously over hurdles when third of 6 in 2m contest here in May. Step back up in trip will suit and she's not yet exposed.

7/2
Placed in his first 5 handicaps, including 3 times under Callum Pritchard. Shaped better than sixth of 11 suggests at Chepstow in February but well held both starts since, reported to have irregular heartbeat latest.

4/1
Maiden on Flat and over hurdles but has found his level in this sphere and best effort yet when third of 12 at Perth 3 weeks ago. Longer trip will suit so plenty to recommend.

10/1
Dual point winner who belied his age as he showed his first form under Rules when landing 7-runner event on handicap debut at Fontwell (19f) in May. Didn't find much for pressure at Newton Abbot a month ago.

18/1
Modest 11f Flat winner who needed the experience in a pair of hurdle starts last November but unable to advance her form in a pair of handicaps in recent weeks.

Runner-up in a point bumper but has shown decidedly little all 4 outings under Rules. Hopes pinned on switch to handicaps and step up in distance.

9/2
Little impact in juvenile/maiden hurdles and sent off 33/1, he didn't show much more on May's handicap debut at Fontwell. Still early days and he's in good hands.

Age: 5|  Weight: 10-12| J: James Best| T: S-J Davies| OR:  80
50/1
Modest performer on Flat who showed little in a handful of hurdle starts for Olly Murphy and fared no better completed start for this yard (failed to take to chasing latest).

Forecasts

Locked Down Lad (7/2), Ballylicky Bay (4/1), Karthala (4/1), Khalk'eau Spigao (9/2), Portetta (8/1), Scoresby (10/1), Roland Garros (16/1), Magna Patch (16/1), Barafundle Bay (18/1), Dynamite Defense (50/1), Stavanger Rose (50/1)

Verdict

The way KARTHALA shaped at Perth 3 weeks ago strongly suggests this step up in distance is in his favour so could be the answer to this modest handicap. Ballylicky Bay and Portetta are potential threats.
