Par Inn Bulpin Cup Amateur Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Sligo maiden hurdle winner whose form went the wrong way (including over fences) for Eric McNamara in Ireland. British mark looks stiff enough, even if back on song for new handler.

Doubled his career/course tally when a narrow winner in first-time visor over C&D in June. Hasn't bettered that form with a couple of in-frame efforts at Worcester since and a 1-lb reprieve probably isn't enough.

Point winner. Allowed the run of things when pushing a fair sort from the Paul Nicholls yard close on handicap debut at Taunton in April. Didn't repeat that effort the following month, however, worth a second look returning in a weak handicap with leading amateur booked.

Successful over fences here last year. Back on his latest winning mark and has looked in top form recently. Again finished with running left under an overly patient ride when 2½-length second at Plumpton 8 days ago. Capable of going one better if things fall right under usual amateur rider.

Hasn't kicked on since going close in a 2m handicap here in June, however, is on a reasonable mark if revitalised by this marked step up in trip (stayed well on the Flat). She looks an uncomplicated ride for her relatively inexperienced jockey, too (having only second ride under Rules).

Lightly-raced mare. Best effort came when 2¼-length second of 5 (ahead of Final Entry) in a slowly-run event over C&D on handicap bow. Well below form behind French Diablo (2¾m) subsequently. Step back up in trip/stable's recent form offers hope of a bounce back following an 11-week break.

Lightly-raced 4-y-o. Hasn't progressed since his breakthrough success in a weak race at Stratford (2¾m). First-time cheekpieces added and has work to do from out of the handicap, even with yard's amateur claiming 7 lb.
