Kielan Woods J Graeme McPherson, Stow-On-The-Wold T Longcroft Building Services Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Did the job well when opening hurdles account at Southwell last summer. Placed a few times later in 2020 and may have needed the run when fifth of 9 on Worcester return 46 days ago. Respected. TFRHHHHH BHA119
Br B m Midnight Legend - Kentford Duchess O Mr D. I. Bare B D. I. Bare
Daniel Sansom (3) J Seamus Mullins, Amesbury T We Do Vans S TIMEFORM VIEW Winless since taking a chase here in June 2019, and her recent form is not overly encouraging, finishing a well-held last of 4 at Stratford latest. TFRHHIII BHA114

Daryl Jacob J Jamie Snowden, Lambourn T Betvictor S TIMEFORM VIEW Fair hurdler/chaser who arrives on the back of 2 chase wins this season, the latter at Ffos Las on Thursday. Clearly in fine fettle and respected back hurdling if coping with the quick turnaround. TFRHHHHI BHA112
