Nationwide Concreting Ltd Handicap Hurdle

Dictated to a land mares handicap at Worcester in June. Shaped as though return to this sort of trip may benefit when keen-going fourth at Uttoxeter and quick turnaround suggests she's none the worse for last week's early fall at Stratford. Player if allowed the run of the race here.

Enhanced a fine course record with a career-best success over C&D in March. Wasn't in same form later in the spring but given a break/breathing operation prior to a pipe-opener on the all-weather 12 days ago. Should do better back hurdling.

Off the mark in 2m Perth maiden for Olly Murphy prior to solid third on handicap debut there this time last year. Shaped as though back in form when 7 lengths fourth at Worcester latest. Worth another go over this sort of trip (stayer on the Flat) and makes appeal off a slipping mark.

Multiple Flat winner who's landed both hurdle victories at this track. Latest of those a decisive success in a weaker event here (19f) in early-June. An 8 lb rise may just anchor him, for all he should be spot on for this following recent run on the level.

Travelled well when second to a now borderline useful sort at Stratford in the autumn. Presumably isn't the easiest to train and couldn't build on a couple of promising early-season efforts following 7 weeks off at Uttoxeter last time. On a handy mark if putting it all together, though.
