Alex & Edward Alder Handicap Hurdle

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: A King| OR: 110

Consistent in handicaps, making it fourth time lucky at Newton Abbot (2¾m, good) 36 days ago. Had a bit to spare and should remain competitive off 5 lb higher.

Form: 1-23221

Kentucky River⁹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 12-0| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 111| C| D

5/1

Flat winner who has won a pair of handicap hurdles since stepped up to around 2½m. Well held back on the Flat at Glorious Goodwood in July but he's open to further progress back in this sphere.

Form: 0871-91

Guardami Ancora²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Ring| T: Mrs C Williams| OR: 108

18/1

Lightly-raced 5-y-o who was consistent rather than progressive in 2½m novice/maiden hurdles last season. May have needed the run when well held on last month's 19.5f Chepstow handicap debut/reappearance but needed to see more to lend support here.

Form: 22623-0

Katarcice^t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Hogan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 108

10/3

Runner-up in points and third in a Huntingdon bumper on Rules debut. Fair form switched to hurdles since, coming good in 2¾m maiden at Stratford (good to soft) 17 days ago. More will be needed back in a handicap but could find it.

Form: 32-2351

So Proud^p,t1³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 103

9/1

Haydock bumper winner for Don Cantillon in May 2025. Best effort over hurdles since when second of 5 in handicap at Fontwell (19f, good) in September. Not in anything like the same form with cheekpieces added at Worcester 19 days later. A tongue tie also goes on now.

Form: 15-4320

Ballymoreen¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Cobden| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 103

5/2

Fair bumper winner in Ireland. Stepped up on her qualifying runs over hurdles when making a successful handicap debut/reappearance at Fontwell (2¾m, good to soft) under Harry Cobden 19 days ago. Raised 10 lb but she did it easily and should have more to offer.

Form: 41642-1

The Tide Turns^v1¹⁷⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Lewis Stones⁽³⁾| T: Stephen Allen| OR: 100

100/1

No impact on all 4 starts for new yard. First-time visor replaces cheekpieces back from 6 months off. Can only be watched.

Form: F0/PP9-7

An Buachaill Rua²⁰⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Harry Atkins⁽⁵⁾| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 93| BF| D

10/1

Got off the mark over hurdles at Ludlow in February and backed it up with a good second of 10 in 23f handicap hurdle at Bangor in March. Fell heavily at Ffos Las in April and absent since.

Form: 56512F-

Electric Eddy³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 88| BF

13/2

Lightly raced in recent times. Promising signs back hurdling last twice, looming up but seemingly failing to stay 23f when fifth of 10 at Market Rasen latest. Looks capable of going close at the least off this mark now back at shorter.

Form: P-36645

Stavanger Rose¹⁰⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Shane Quinlan⁽³⁾| T: B Lund| OR: 80

40/1

Bred for stamina and little in the way of promise in various company, including 2 handicaps in July. Has left Harriet Dickin ahead of this first outing for 107 days.

Form: UF-6405

Forecasts

Ballymoreen (9/4), Kittys Glance (7/2), Katarcice (9/2), Kentucky River (6/1), Electric Eddy (7/1), An Buachaill Rua (10/1), So Proud (12/1), Guardami Ancora (25/1), Stavanger Rose (50/1), The Tide Turns (150/1)

BALLYMOREEN should have more to come on the back of her comfortable Fontwell handicap debut success and can make light of a 10 lb rise, perhaps at the expense of Electric Eddy who shaped well at Market Rasen until his stamina gave out. Kentucky River has improved over hurdles since stepped up in trip and is next on the list.
