11/8

An improver over hurdles upon joining Joe Tizzard, winning at Wincanton last spring and doubling his tally for the yard after 6 months off here in May. Ran respectably despite coming off bridle some way out when second in a 5-runner handicap here (2¾m) 47 days ago. Makes chase debut in blinkers.

Form: 471/6-12

Limerick Leader^b,t²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: James Bowen| T: Nick Scholfield| OR: 100| BF| CD

13/8

Made a positive start for this yard when just denied at Southwell on return last month and just got tired late after leading for a long way when third of 5 in handicap chase at this C&D (good) 20 days ago. Tongue strap back on and bold bid from the front expected.

Form: 1222-23

The Gypsy Davey^v¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Conor Ring| T: Mrs C Williams| OR: 97| D

11/1

Rather lost his way over fences last season and fared no better reverted to hurdling at Stratford 2 weeks ago. Hard to fancy at present.

Form: 644P-45

It's A Breeze^h,t⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Freddie Gingell| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 91

4/1

Modest maiden hurdler but strikes as the type to do better over fences and still looked to be going ok when falling 4 out on first attempt at Fontwell in April. Folded tamely after travelling into the lead here (3¼m) last time but he's of serious interest now dropping back in trip.

Form: 526F-P4

Forecasts

Ellerton (11/8), Limerick Leader (13/8), It's A Breeze (4/1), The Gypsy Davey (11/1)

IT'S A BREEZE went well for a long way before his stamina ran dry over 3¼m last time and is taken to build on that promise now dropped back in trip. Limerick Leader has made a good start for the Scholfield yard and looks the biggest threat.
