To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
KEVIN'S PRIDE was impressive in winning a bumper by nine lengths on his racecourse bow at Kilbeggan last August and hasn't done much wrong in finishing second in all three subsequent starts over hurdles. Versatile regarding distance, there is enough to suggest the son of Mount Nelson is worth persevering with here. Point-to-point winner Saint Malinas has shown similar promise in his two starts under Rules and is another key player. Frisby and Scarlet Jet complete the shortlist.
Top Tip:
Kevin's Pride
(5)
Watch out for:
Saint Malinas
(6)
This can go to Irish raider KEVIN'S PRIDE who sets a clear standard on form. He was a bumper winner last summer and has been steadily progressing over hurdles with his latest runner up effort boosted since. The experienced Highland Fashion showed improved form despite meeting trouble last time and looks the biggest danger. Theatre Light ran well on debut and this stiffer test should suit judged on the form of her point win. She can fight for a place once more.

2024: (6 ran) Ioupy Collonges , Age 6 , Wgt 11-7 , SP 11/5 - Bryony Frost / P F Nicholls

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Ostend, Dare To Shout and Rattling Road have plenty going for them and each merits close inspection. However, BASHERS REFLECTION is dangerous to underestimate given the reliability he has shown in his three starts since undergoing wind surgery, with his most recent third in a class 2 chase at Kempton looking a particulary persuasive piece of form in the context of this race. The aforementioned Ostend is feared the most after a wide-magin success with a first-time tongue-tied added at Market Rasen.
Top Tip:
Bashers Reflection
(6)
Watch out for:
Ostend
(4)
Though the race fell apart behind OSTEND last time he impressed with his jumping and relished the quicker surface. This track and conditions will suit and he should be capable of following up. Next Left has been below par of late but he went too fast last time and the handicapper is relenting. He may pose the biggest danger to the selection while Rattling Road who went too fast and set it up for a closer last time can hold on for a place again.

HORACES PEARL was unbeaten going into the Grade 1 Mersey Novices' Hurdle at Aintree and, given he stumbled two out, his fifth-placed finish in that race was commendable. This looks a shade easier and a resumption of winning ways is a distinct possibility, with the longer trip a potential source for improvement. Dedicated Hero is another key player after securing a Grade 2 success at Haydock most recently, while Minella Rescue and the unexposed Kiss Will are other notable contenders in a strong renewal.
Top Tip:
Horaces Pearl
(6)
Watch out for:
Dedicated Hero
(1)
An extremely strong renewal can go the way of MISTER MEGGIT who looked a touch unlucky in the Sefton last time where he travelled best but was outstayed late having challenged too early off a strong pace. With slightly more reserved handling he can reverse form with Minella Rescue and make amends. Go West has been thriving in lower grades of late and should play a part if his stamina holds up though he is unlikely to get his own way in front here. Title chasing Willie Mullins also holds a strong hand and Ballygunner Castle who was unsuited by the drop back in trip last time may do the best of his runners returned to 3m

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
FUN FUN FUN represents Willie Mullins and will likely prove a warm order. She won a Grade 3 novice chase with any amount in hand when upped to 3m at Limerick a month ago, and will likely prove hard to stop given these favourable terms. Stable companion Paggane scored nicely at Clonmel last time, but the progressive El Elefante is a bigger threat representing last year's winning trainer. Coco Mademoiselle was still in contention when falling at Cheltenham last week, though has plenty to find in this company.
Top Tip:
Fun Fun Fun
(1)
Watch out for:
El Elefante
(4)
Tough to get away from FUN FUN FUN who is expected to outclass her rivals. She relished the step up to 3m last time showing improved jumping beating a previous Listed winner and looks capable of defying a penalty. The biggest threats may come from progressive handicappers El Elefante and Space Voyage. The former should appreciate this longer distance while the latter was unsuited by a sharp track last time but will find this one more to her liking.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
PARISENCORE has been threatening a return to winning ways. Beaten only a neck in the Castleford Chase at Wetherby in December, he returns to action here and Nicky Richards' charge gets the vote. Netywell showed signs of a resurgence when runner-up at Kelso and looks on a workable mark, while Etalon drops in class and is no forlorn hope for the Skelton yard. Vocito represents last year's winning trainer and makes most appeal of the rest.
Top Tip:
Parisencore
(3)
Watch out for:
Netywell
(5)
An open race where none of the field can be ruled out. Top weight PAY THE PIPER may be the most solid option given he's shown a consistent level of form in this sphere. He was far from disgraced over a stretching trip over hurdles last time but this will be more suitable. Course specialist Parisencore has a lay off to overcome but could stay into a place if getting a stiff test. Nettywell returned to form in a strong race last time off his reduced mark and is entitled to be thereabouts once more if handling the quicker ground

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
JUMPING SUSIE faced a stiff assignment in Listed company at Cork last time, but she won a novice event at Kelso in fine style before that and John McConnell's inmate gets another chance at this lower level. Little Miss Dante looks fairly treated based on her latest fourth at Aintree, while Hay Meadow can make her presence felt now handicapping after landing a novices race at Ayr. Parisian Fashion is another to note.
Top Tip:
Jumping Susie
(1)
Watch out for:
Hay Meadow
(5)
SUNDAY SOLDIER went too fast last time and dropped out tamely but she is potentially thrown in on her previous Listed run. She could get an easy lead here and may prove tough to peg back if that is the case. Feach Amach was an easy winner last time and ought to remain competitive despite a 12lb rise in the weights. Bishop Hill hinted at a revival last time and is entitled to come on for the run. She could run into a place if doing so.

HENRYSBROTHERJACK arrives seeking a third win of the season, with the six-year-old having improved for a step up in distance at Bangor last time. The manner of that performance suggested further progression is likely, despite a 6lb rise from the handicapper. Bollin Neil sprung a surprise at Catterick before a solid Hexham second and is expected to be in the mix along with Shuil Ceoil.
Top Tip:
Henrysbrotherjack

Watch out for:
Bollin Neil
(2)
BOLLIN NEIL overcame a troubled passage when winning on his penultimate start and was far from disgraced over an inadequate trip from a poor positioned last time. He can make amends returned to 3m at a stiff track. Henrysbortherjack has been steadily progressing recently and it's worth marking up his latest win where he quickened off a steady pace. He may prove the biggest challenge for the selection along with Wee Alki who was unsuited by the way the race developed last time but was in good form prior.

HAPPY INDEX has improved 23lb in the space of four runs, including victories here in September and at Market Rasen, and the daughter of Blue Bresil has been freshened up since filling the runner-up spot at Taunton in December. Maura Jeanne took a step back in the right direction at Newcastle and is of interest with cheekpieces reapplied. Follow Charlie and Nathan Wells complete the shortlist.

Watch out for:
Maura Jeanne
(5)
Thorough stayer MAURA JEANNE looks the one to be with here. She came clear of the remainder last time and will appreciate this stiffer track. Follow Charlie hasn't won in a while but does arrive in form and can get involved if his stamina holds up. Happy Index conceded first run when beaten in his hat trick bid but will be on the premises if ridden more positively back from a break.
