5/2 |
Adveram
Won at Ayr (2m3f) on reappearance and better form in defeat over about 3m in his three races since; latest was a Class 3 at Ayr (soft) and he looks set for another prominent finish.

Snowrocco
Up to an extended 2m4f when fourth of 18 at Ayr (soft) three weeks ago in her second handicap, sticking to her task to give hope for this longer trip.

The Questioner
Winning hurdler/chaser; 444 days off before tailed off over C&D (22-1) four weeks ago; very well handicapped on old form but it's hard to latch on to him just yet unless there's been much more market interest in him.

Paddy O'Mahler
No win after three bumpers and 12 hurdle races; had his second go at about 3m on latest start and produced clearly his best show this term, beaten just over 2l after interference three out in C&D race won by stablemate The Big Breac (runs 3.15 today); place chance.

Dexperado
Twice runner-up over about 2m5f at Market Rasen last spring once sent handicapping with cheekpieces added; second start this term (cheekpieces removed, at Market Rasen) was a lot better than the first and gave some encouragement for this longer trip; headgear back.

7/1 |
Ballydangan
Ex-Irish maiden who has had heavy defeats trying to come from the rear in his three starts (one over fences) for new yard; judged on his best Irish efforts, though, he should be a lot more potent with today's return to 3m+; interesting to see if the betting moves back that up.

Westerdale
Well-beaten outsider in three hurdle races at Hexham (one 2m and two 2m4f); starts life in handicaps off a lowly mark and seemingly with stamina in the pedigree, so she's one to keep an eye on.

Stress Reaction
Second of five in a point bumper; failed to achieve much in his bumper or three hurdle races (up to 2m4f) but there is some class and stamina in his pedigree and going handicapping should improve his prospects.

Take A Hike
Tongue tied for handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last time and her fortunes improved as she made the running and finished third of 12, albeit well off the first two; better is needed and this further step up in trip may help.

So Ladylike
Far more exposed than most of these, aged 11, but she finally got off the mark under rules on latest outing when ridden from the front in a small field at Hexham (extended 2m7f, soft) last June under Natasha Cookson; that was just her second run for current connections and peak form was a bit better.

Royle Steel
Both wins at Sedgefield, the latest over fences in October 2023; failure to approach that form in recent outings means he is passed over this time.
