11-8

11/4 3/1 9/4

Third at Fontwell on her most recent start, stepping up in trip, she shows solid consistent form but remains without a win. Effective at today's distance and conditions, and first-time cheekpieces could provide the extra sharpness her debut form suggested she is capable of finding.

AI verdict

Consistent form figures of 533-33 and a competitive 10/3 odds suggest ability, but the 100 Saturday Rating and non-favourite market position limit upside.

9/2 7/4 7/2

Progressive in bumpers with a win to her name, she switches to hurdles for a trainer in sparkling form who is striking at a high rate recently. Effective at today's distance and conditions, and her bumper ability suggests she is capable of making an impact in this sphere.

AI verdict

Strong Saturday Rating of 157 and competitive 5/2 odds offset slightly by inconsistent 3-14 form and non-favourite market position.

300/1 150/1 200/1

Beaten a long way in her last three outings and yet to trouble the principals in any of them, she faces another stiff task here. First-time tongue-tie is added, but she requires significant improvement to be involved and is hard to recommend at this stage.

AI verdict

Winters Hill's 200/1 odds and poor form figures of 7/8-8 signal minimal market confidence despite a 124 Saturday Rating.

4/1 9/4 10/3

Third on her most recent start at Southwell after setting too strong a pace in a bumper, she had landed a debut win beforehand and ought to make further progress switching to hurdles. First-time hood may help her find a better rhythm; the key is whether she settles more readily.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 159 combined with consistent form (13) and strong 11/4 market support justifies maximum confidence.

5/4 32/17 11/10

Beaten only a neck on her hurdles debut here, outfought in the closing stages by a stronger and more experienced rival, she showed considerable ability and is expected to build on that. Effective at today's distance and conditions, she looks ready to take a forward step.

AI verdict

Strong Saturday Rating of 159 combined with competitive 15/8 odds and consistent form figure of 2 justifies the 4-star assessment.

Well beaten on both of her recent outings, she comes back after a break having failed to land a blow in a mares bumper here last time. Some improvement is possible as she switches to hurdles, but considerably more is required to be competitive in this field.

AI verdict

Massive 80/1 odds and poor 7-6 form make Lundy View a 125-rated longshot carrying 11-4 with no market support.

Made little impression on her hurdles debut here most recently, detached throughout from an early stage, though she showed some promise in bumpers and runs in a first-time hood today. Usually held up, she is effective at today's distance and conditions; needs to demonstrate significantly more.

AI verdict

Long-shot odds of 66/1 and inconsistent form (353-U6) limit confidence despite a Saturday Rating of 122.

Showed ability in bumpers but struggled to adapt to hurdles on her debut here, making jumping errors throughout on her most recent start. First-time tongue-tie may sharpen her jumping, and there is underlying potential, though she remains a work in progress over obstacles.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 125 shows ability, but 25/1 odds and patchy form figures of 273-9 limit confidence.

7/4 31/19 7/4

First-time hood, and this mare has been building her profile over hurdles after a promising start in bumpers; she landed a race before a solid effort on handicap debut at Worcester three weeks ago, with trainer in fine current form.

AI verdict

Carries top weight of 12-0 with inconsistent form (801-23) despite a fair Saturday Rating of 104 at 7/4 odds.

Placed twice in his last three starts and moves into handicap company for the first time, which could unlock improvement; effective on sound ground, though composure in running will be key, and he has been off the track for 45 days.

AI verdict

Backer Bilk's moderate 95 Saturday Rating, 4/1 odds, and uninspiring 7-23 form justify a mid-tier 3/5 rating.

Tongue-tie applied for the first time on a mare who likes to force the pace; she showed encouragement when runner-up here recently, though she has blown hot and cold over hurdles and needs to find more consistency.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 10-7 with inconsistent form of 6374-2 and a Saturday Rating of 88 limits confidence despite fair 11/4 odds.

Tom Broughton 11%

Max Comley 13%

10/1 8/1 17/2

First-time hood for a mare who likely found the ground faster than ideal when fourth at Huntingdon last time; she is at her best in easier conditions, remains unexposed, and there is more to come once things fall her way.

AI verdict

Form figures of U43P-4 and a low Saturday Rating of 76 at 9/1 suggest limited winning prospects.

First-time tongue-tie for a gelding who carries Flat ability over the hurdles journey; he acts on today's going and trip, and while his opening handicap run here was below par, an improved show on a going day is not beyond him.

AI verdict

Poor form figures of 05-58, a Saturday Rating of 87, and 9/1 odds suggest limited winning prospects at 10-4.

Callum Pritchard 14%

13/2 9/1 13/2

Tongue-tie and cheekpieces both first-time on a gelding who acts on today's going and trip; he made a sequence of jumping errors here last month and weakened, and though his mark may now be competitive, inconsistency remains the stumbling block.

AI verdict

Saucats sits mid-field at 15/2 with a modest Saturday Rating of 83 and inconsistent form of 54-255.

Age 6 · 12-0

P60-35

Megan Bevan(5) 2%

Harriet Dickin 6%

12-0

14/1 11/1 14/1

First-time blinkers as she switches back to hurdles — a more suitable test given her tendency to make errors at fences; effective at today's trip on decent ground. Winless in her last five outings and held at Warwick recently, she needs to improve.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with a poor form reading of P60-35 and a weak Saturday Rating of 81 at 14/1 makes Northern Symphonie a very unconvincing outsider.

1/2 4/7 7/16

First-time cheekpieces, and recent form is compelling: she landed a race before a close second on her stable debut off today's mark; effective at this trip on decent ground, and her trainer is among the form handlers at present.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 95 and inconsistent form (213-72) undermine confidence despite carrying just 11-13 at short 1/2 odds.

Hurst Hill

Age 7 · 11-2

426-74

Daniel Sansom 6%

Seamus Mullins 11%

11-2

11/2 9/2 11/2

First-time blinkers for a mare who landed this contest last year and remains on a competitive mark; she could be building toward her best this season, though she was poorly placed off a slow pace when fourth here most recently.

AI verdict

Recent form of 426-74 and a modest Saturday Rating of 81 make Hurst Hill an unconvincing 11/2 market proposition.

Jack Tudor 13%

Christian Williams 10%

10-11

66/1 40/1 66/1

Making a fresh start with a new yard, and her Southwell run last month can be treated as a debut effort for the stable; she acts on today's going, but has shown little under rules thus far and needs to show considerably more.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 51, 50/1 odds, and poor form reading 4/8P-9 make Global Hideaway a rank outsider with no winning case.

Blue Siam

Ellis Collier 8%

SP 13/2 9/1

First-time visor, and this filly has shown consistent placed form; she acts on today's going, though she ran too freely in front here last time and her effective range is shorter, so both settling and stamina are open questions.

AI verdict

Rated just 78 with uninspiring 55-434 form and sent off 10/1 by an unconvinced market, Blue Siam offers little appeal at 10-7.

6/1 17/2 11/2

A point winner who has struggled to reproduce that level under rules; effective at today's trip and going, though she was comfortably held at Southwell last time despite holding a decent early position, and needs to find a better level.

AI verdict

Sent off 9/1 with a Saturday Rating of just 66, patchy form of U4-125, and carrying 10-5 makes Ghost Jury hard to recommend.

Age 6 · 10-2

P097-P

Conor O'Farrell 12%

Jimmy Frost 3%

10-2

16/1 11/1 12/1

First-time cheekpieces for a mare with a point-to-point background who has shown nothing under rules so far; she went too freely in a chase here last month and was pulled up, and significant improvement will be needed over hurdles to feature.

AI verdict

Rated just 60 with a form reading P097-P and drifting at 14/1, Bee's Kiss offers no compelling market or form case.

Revived from a lengthy break to land a handicap by 15 lengths at Southwell last time off a 9lb lower mark, with a positive ride drawing the best from him. Proven at today's distance and conditions; the upward revision in the weights is the key question.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with a modest Saturday Rating of 107 and patchy form (7PPP-1) limits confidence despite 4/1 odds.

Back in form and on a mark that looks workable against his best Irish figures, he shaped well when second on his final outing for his previous yard. Effective from 2m to 2m4f, he makes a promising stable debut for a trainer currently in good form.

AI verdict

Krak's mid-tier Saturday Rating of 113, awkward form (370P-2), and top weight of 11-12 limit confidence despite market-friendly 11/8 odds.

A winner at today's distance on similar ground last summer, he arrives in first-time cheekpieces after a lengthy absence and a below-par effort at Uttoxeter on his most recent start. The mark looks stiff given the modest level of last summer's wins, but there is scope to improve on latest.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-11 with a modest Saturday Rating of 119 and patchy recent form of /1145- limits confidence at 9/2.

Consistent in form and travelling particularly well last time, landing a handicap by 20 lengths at Stratford just four days ago off a 7lb lower mark. Proven at today's distance on similar ground and wears a tongue-tie for the first time; the revised mark is the one question.

AI verdict

Gore Point's consistent form of 342-21, competitive 9/4 odds, and solid 115 Saturday Rating justify strong 4-star confidence despite carrying 10-8.

12-0

6/1 3/1 6/1

Winless in recent starts and off the course for 84 days, having been pulled up at Aintree on his most recent outing. The drop in class is notable and the trainer is in good form, but the mark remains stiff for a yard debut and today's ground is quicker than his best conditions.

AI verdict

Charlus carries top weight of 12-0, holds a modest Saturday Rating of 101, and poor form figures of 2FP0P- at 5/1.

Consistent over hurdles with a string of placed efforts, he filled the runner-up spot at Worcester last time beaten just 1½ lengths on a marginally lower mark. Effective at today's distance and conditions, and a flat track like Newton Abbot plays to his strengths; hard to dismiss.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-12 with a Saturday Rating of 120 and inconsistent form of 223-42 limits Continuance despite attractive 2/1 odds.

Successful in this race 12 months ago, she comes here after a solid Flat effort and arrives at a venue that suits her front-running style on good ground. Effective at today's distance, she can cause real problems if given a clear lead from the outset.

AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 114 and fair 7/2 odds are undermined by top weight 11-7 and inconsistent form showing an unseated.

Steadily progressive over hurdles with back-to-back wins before his most recent start, where he was eased through the closing stages when beaten a long way in a step up in class here. That performance can be excused; effective at today's distance and going, and should be sharper for it.

AI verdict

Consistent form of 3P1-12 and a competitive 114 Saturday Rating are undermined by a hefty 10-12 weight at 11/2.

A useful performer over fences, he arrives over hurdles having finished down the field at Stratford most recently in what appeared a conditioning run. Both a tongue-tie and visor appear on him for the first time; the going suits but others arrive here with considerably better recent form.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with a poor form string of 35PP-9 and 66/1 odds, Great d'Ange's Saturday Rating of 63 offers no winning case.

Won here by 8 lengths on his penultimate start and that course-and-distance form looks solid; his most recent run can be forgiven as he was caught in a slowly-run race that simply did not suit. First-time cheekpieces accompany him today and he is well suited by the extra distance on good ground.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-11 with a modest Saturday Rating of 88 and inconsistent form of 857-15 limits confidence at 13/2.

With experience between the flags and now starting out for a new yard, he steps out in first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces having been pulled up on his most recent rules appearance in Ireland. The trainer is in good form and the break since then is a positive; however, he has plenty to prove under rules.

AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 90 and inconsistent form (P72-2P) limit confidence despite attractive 2/1 odds and 11-9 weight.

Well beaten at Taunton on his most recent hurdles return and back from a short break, he switches back to fences today which looks his better sphere. Effective at today's distance and conditions; the key question is whether he can produce a much-improved performance after a run of poor efforts.

AI verdict

Weak Saturday Rating of 70, poor recent form (32PP7-), and 12/1 odds signal little market confidence in Mcgregors Charge.

Back to his best last time at Uttoxeter, grinding out a handicap victory by just over a length off a lower mark. Form has been inconsistent, but the confidence from that success could carry through; effective at today's distance and going.

AI verdict

Daring Plan's mid-tier Saturday Rating of 81 and burdensome 10-13 weight offset promising recent form of 352-U1 at 11/2.

Barry Brennan 8%

18/1 10/1 18/1

Off the track for over six months, having been pulled up at Fakenham last time on soft ground that did not suit him. He is a more reliable performer on sounder surfaces over fences, and today's conditions are more amenable; a tongue-tie is also added, though the lengthy absence remains a concern.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 10-13, rated just 79, and drifting at 12/1 in the market, his form ending in a pull-up makes him a risky outsider.

Below his best on his most recent hurdles start at Ffos Las, making jumping errors and well held throughout. He could be better suited returning to fences and the first-time visor is of interest; effective at the trip but needs to improve significantly on recent form to be competitive.

AI verdict

Blackacre's Saturday Rating of 75, 8/1 odds, and poor form including a fall suggest limited winning prospects under 10-8.

9/4 3/1 32/17

Third most recently at Bangor-on-Dee, fading late back up in trip, beaten 3 lengths off his current mark. Effective at today's distance and suited by a sound surface, both of which apply here; first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces are added. Rated eighth of eight on our figures.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 89 and inconsistent form (154-63) at 10-7 weight justify a mid-tier 3/5 despite strong 9/4 market support.
