Age: 8| Weight: 12-2| J: Benjamin Macey⁽⁵⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 122

14/1

Bounced back to form when making all at Market Rasen under Gina Andrews in April but merely added to his all-or-nothing profile when pulled up over C&D in May. Freshened up since.

Form: 4/P6F1-P

Regal Renaissance¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: S Bowen| T: Jack Jones| OR: 120

6/1

Completed a small-field hat-trick (first leg for Henry Daly) when seeing off 2 rivals at Market Rasen (21f, good) 17 days ago. Thriving for Jack Jones and only 2 lb higher as she goes in search of the 4-timer. Gets the vote.

Form: F42-111

Tiger Orchid^b²⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 11-13| J: Charlie Hammond| T: S Edmunds| OR: 119| CD

10/1

Veteran who gained due reward for his consistency since joining the yard when ending a long losing run in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23f, good to soft) in June. Only fifth of 6 back chasing at Cartmel since, though.

Form: 222-315

Court In A Storm^t⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 118| D

4/1

Bumper/dual hurdle winner but has yet to land a handicap. Failed to failed on C&D chase debut second when remote last of 4 at Newton Abbot 6 weeks ago. Needs a return to this venue to spark a revival.

Form: F743-24

Jaramillo²⁵⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: W Greatrex| OR: 117

80/1

Scored at Newton Abbot (21f) last spring. Also a creditable third at Uttoxeter in May but off since a poor run at Wincanton in November.

Form: 21/3656-

Harrys Hope³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling| OR: 112| D

6/1

Strong-travelling mare who won 3m handicap chases at Warwick and Uttoxeter last summer. Returned from 8 months off to finish second at Stratford (23f, good) 5 weeks ago but she didn't travel with her customary fluency and was beaten 16 lengths.

Form: 11220-2

Gwash^p²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Tom Broughton⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 110

11/2

Placed in a handicap hurdle here last month and repeated the feat when ¾-length second to reopposing Axel Bleue second over C&D 3 weeks ago, just denied by a stronger stayer having travelled well. That was only his second start over fences so he may do better again. Considered.

Form: 876-532

Axel Bleue^p,t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: James Bowen| T: M Bowen| OR: 105| CD

11/4

Point/dual bumper winner who came good at the third time of asking over fences when wearing down the reopposing Gwash towards the finish over C&D 3 weeks ago. Suited by rail movements adding nearly a furlong to that race and no certainty to confirm the placings.

Form: 2P9-331

Grillon De Monty¹²

Age: 11| Weight: 10-10| J: Jamie Brace⁽⁵⁾| T: Stephen Allen| OR: 102| CD

11/1

Dual C&D winner last summer. Creditable second of 5 in over C&D (good to firm) 12 days ago and no reason why he won't give his running again.

Form: 140-2P2

Forecasts

Axel Bleue (11/4), Court In A Storm (4/1), Gwash (11/2), Regal Renaissance (6/1), Harrys Hope (6/1), Tiger Orchid (10/1), Grillon De Monty (11/1), Mt Fugi Park (14/1), Jaramillo (80/1)

REGAL RENAISSANCE has impressed since joining Jack Jones and can defy the handicapper again. Gwash came off worse in a battle with Alex Bleue over C&D 12 days ago but rail movements meant that race was run over nearly a furlong further than the advertised distance and Fergal O'Brien's charge can turn the tables this afternoon and give the selection most to do.
