14/1
Bumper winner; 0-6 over hurdles and needs to bounce back from a poor run but his third of 14 at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft) in April was a good effort; drops back in trip and sports first-time cheekpieces on chasing debut; could have a say if back on song.
AI verdict

SR 70 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 14/1.

Not beaten far when last of four in Warwick hunter chase (3m, good) last month but managed only fifth of seven in a subsequent point; back in a handicap chase for stable debut; quite tricky to weigh up at the moment; seems best suited by good ground.

Still unexposed under rules and was seemingly aided by new cheekpieces when second of four at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March; that form isn't anything to get excited about, though, and he was well held when third at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) last month; now tries a visor; forecast rain probably not ideal.

Fast-improving mare who has been on the rampage over the last fortnight, winning two 2m chases and two hurdles (2m4f/2m) on good ground; carries 7lb penalty for Tuesday's success over fences at Southwell but did that pretty easily; obvious contender, providing she's not derailed by significant rain.

No threat to easy winner Beorma when third of five on chasing debut here (2m, good) two weeks ago but that run was still quite encouraging, and she might be better suited by this longer trip; won't mind if the ground softens; one to consider.

Now 4lb lower than when creditable third of 17 over the big Aintree fences (2m5f, good to soft) in November but his subsequent form has been underwhelming; drops in grade here but still needs to up his game and has presumably been overlooked by Nico de Boinville; seems versatile ground-wise.

Front-runner who returned from seven-month break with 7l win in first-time visor at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month; only 4lb higher here but the market principals in that race disappointed and the form is of questionable value; raced mainly on good ground but has won on good to soft and been placed on soft.

Easily won a point bumper in March 2025 (good to soft) but did not show much in three rules bumpers (remote when second last month); significant improvement required on hurdle debut; tongue-tie removed.

Lightly raced since winning slow-ground French bumper on debut in November 2024 but was second on hurdle debut at Hereford (2m3f, good) in March and might not have been suited by the idiosyncratic track when below that form at Fakenham (2m4f, good) last month; drops back in trip with tongue-tie added here; has a fighting chance.

A smart 3m-winning hurdler for Dan Skelton in 2024/25; only raced twice for Olly Murphy last season and not seen out since being pulled up in Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot in December; has it to prove starting out for another new yard here.

Very smart 3m-winning chaser for Gordon Elliott in 2024/25; also scored over fences for current yard at Perth (3m) in April but beat just one when tried in cheekpieces in 2m4f handicap chase at Uttoxeter 18 days ago; reverts to hurdles off a 7lb lower mark but still has something to prove.

Took a step forward on just his second run for Olly Murphy when landing 3m1f handicap hurdle at Carlisle in October 2024; went without his usual cheekpieces after 17 months off when a never-dangerous sixth in 2m4f Hexham handicap last month; can strip sharper now with headgear refitted.

Low-mileage 7yo is thriving of late and he readily followed up his hurdling success at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to firm) in 2m7f handicap chase here (good) two weeks ago; up 8lb but still looks the one to beat back hurdling.
AI verdict

Favourable weight of 10-9 gives a real edge in this handicap.

Won at Galway (2m, good) in July 2024; downhill thereafter, ending time in Ireland competing on the Flat; third of five at Exeter (2m; 33-1) on second start for this trainer but tough to fancy on strength of his other two efforts.
