16/1

Made all in 21f Hereford handicap chase in April 2025 and was proving consistent in this sphere when last seen a year ago. Returns with yard in best run of form for a long time.

66/1

Looked like one with problems towards the end of his time with Dan Skelton. Fair third over C&D on stable/chasing debut in May but has gone backwards since, first-time cheekpieces not stopping the rot here last time.

4/5

Firmly in the groove for new yard, runner-up in 19f novice handicap hurdle at Fontwell (very strong form) before opening account on chase debut in 2m handicap here a fortnight ago, surviving a scare early in the straight. Probably still well ahead of his mark after a 10 lb rise.

Form: 235-421

11/1

Couple of fair runs in staying hurdles last season and no reason why he can't make an impact over fences. His mark looks stiff, though.

10/1

Won 3m Chepstow handicap hurdle in April 2025 and matched the pick of his hurdling form after 11 weeks off when fourth on chase debut there when last seen in March (sent off favourite). That race has thrown up a couple of winners and he could do better in this sphere.

Form: 61/F374-

25/1

Maiden but placed on 4 of his last 5 starts, plugging on to go second between the last 2 at Newton Abbot (3¼m) when last seen in June. Drop back in trip not sure to suit.

Form: P32P-32

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: David Bass| T: D Weston| OR: 85| CD

16/1

Off the mark at second attempt over fences when making all over C&D last summer. Disappointing since, brushed aside from 5 out here 3 months ago. Needs a revival.

Form: 15577-8

Rockvale^p,t¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Brendan Powell| T: S Allwood| OR: 80| D

6/1

Off the mark in 2½m Southwell handicap chase a fortnight ago, jumping more fluently and finally putting it all together from reduced mark, with the addition of cheekpieces perhaps pivotal. Can go well again despite an 8 lb rise.

Form: 2P4U31

Noble Recall¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: Isabelle Ryder⁽⁵⁾| T: A Day| OR: 73| CD

6/1

Doubled his tally back over hurdles in 10-runner handicap over this trip here last month, well ridden by this pilot. Good third to Rockvale back over fences at Southwell since but probably only playing for a place again.

Form: 254-P13

Forecasts

Onehundredneighty (4/5), Noble Recall (6/1), Rockvale (6/1), Love Me (8/1), Tom Taggle (10/1), Pop's Folly (11/1), Calli Black (16/1), Jimmyjeroo (16/1), Black Occ (25/1), Disco Davis (66/1)

ONEHUNDREDNEIGHTY should go on improving over fences and can make it 2-2 in this sphere. Rockvale is up 8 lb for his Southwell romp and can go well again now he's got his head in front. Jimmyjeroo returns with his yard in good form and could be in the hunt if ready to go.
