Jonathan Moore J D. M. Christie, Ireland T

B M. Bocq Verdys, R. Mauri-Amoros et al TIMEFORM VIEW Smart on his day, as he demonstrated when landing a big pot for Willie Mullins at Leopardstown in May. However, makes debut for new yard on the back of a string of low-key efforts. Cheekpieces added. TFRHHIII BHA149

Olly Murphy, Wilmcote T B J. Sheehan Ultima Business Solutions S TIMEFORM VIEW Grade 1 Long Walk Hurdle winner in December 2019, but clearly not the force of old having failed to fire both starts over hurdles last term prior to coming up short in a couple of hunter chases. TFRHHIII BHA144

B Dayton Investments (Breeding) Limited TIMEFORM VIEW Posted a career-best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (20.3f) in August. Successful on the Flat last month, too, and this Irish raider is worthy of consideration. TFRHHHHI BHA138

James Best J Philip Hobbs, Minehead T B Ms Margaret Leahy Trust Inns Limited S TIMEFORM VIEW Clear-cut winner of 3m Sandown handicap chase in February, but was pulled up on his other 3 starts last term and it’s hard to know what to expect of him back in this sphere. Yard also saddles Pileon. TFRHHIII BHA135

O Mr Malcolm Olden

Charlie Longsdon, Chipping Norton T B Padraig Barry Merribelle Stable Llc S TIMEFORM VIEW Useful winning hurdler/maiden chaser for Dan Skelton, but hasn’t fired in 2 starts over fences for new yard this season and resumes in this sphere on a tough-looking mark. TFRHHIII BHA135

O The Home Farm Partnership

Henry Daly, Ludlow T B Mr George Stanners Humphrey Butler Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Improved during 2019/20 campaign and shaped well when fourth of 11 here on chase debut/sole start last season. Trip/ground no problem and should have a part to play back hurdling if fully tuned-up. TFRHHHII BHA135

Tom Scudamore J David Pipe, Wellington T B Elms Stud Co Ltd & G. Peck W & S Recycling S TIMEFORM VIEW Quickly made up into a smart novice chaser last term and by no means disgraced when fifth in a Grade 2 at the Cheltenham Festival when last seen in March.

O South Terrace Partnership

Dr Richard Newland, Droitwich T B Michael Lee Coulthursts Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Largely progressive 6-y-o who opened his account at fifth attempt for this yard when bagging a Uttoxeter handicap (23.3f) in June. More needed up 6lb, but he’s an intriguing candidate all the same. TFRHHHII BHA127

Sam Allwood, Whitchurch T B Seamus Cooney Allwood Horse Transport S TIMEFORM VIEW Ended last season on a high, landing back-to-back handicap hurdles upped to this trip at Doncaster and Ayr. Little impact on return/chase debut at Uttoxeter, but possibilities back in this sphere. TFRHHHII BHA127

B Thomas Bruton TIMEFORM VIEW Low-mileage 7-y-o who scored twice over fences at Chepstow last term. However, his profile is starting to look rather patchy and he faces an uphill task back hurdling from 7lb out of the weights. TFRHHIII BHA116

PLAY SMARTER

The pick of several appealing candidates in this competitive contest is REMASTERED, who returns to hurdles on a potentially handy mark judged on his exploits over fences last season and his record when fresh also augurs well. Act of God is well worth another try over this sort of trip and, fresh from a recent victory on the level, he is next on the list ahead of Rapper and Pileon.
