Selected odds by:

American Mike^t⁴⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| T: G Elliott| OR: 137

6/1

Smart chaser. Five wins from 18 NH runs. Bit below form ninth of 20 in Grand Annual at Cheltenham (2m, good to soft, 14/1) 49 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Back up in trip.

Form: 5-6349

Fad Eadrainn^t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| T: P T Foley| OR: 125

16/1

Bumper winner. Fairly useful hurdler. 1/3, didn't need to improve to win 9-runner maiden at Clonmel (2½m, good) 13 days ago, easily. This demands more.

Form: -15421

Kaid D'authie^p1⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| T: W P Mullins| OR: 133

9/4

Useful hurdler. Pulled up in Baring Bingham Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham (21f, good to soft, 40/1) 49 days ago won by The New Lion, pulled up straight. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

Form: 5/F14P

Locked Box⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| T: C W J Farrell| OR: 123

20/1

Bumper winner. Second start over hurdles when won 24-runner maiden at Fairyhouse (2½m, soft, 4/1) 8 days ago, always holding on. Should progress again.

Form: F-7131

Saint Le Fort⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| T: P Fenton| OR: 122

12/1

3/1, career best when winning 19-runner maiden hurdle at Cork (2½m, good to soft) 41 days ago, driven out. Improvement needed in this company.

Form: 63-231

Tradecraft⁷⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| T: N J Henderson| OR: 114

33/1

Career best when winning 6-runner novice hurdle (4/1) at Sandown (2m, soft) 76 days ago. Back up in trip. Open to improvement.

Form: 220-61

Centreofattention⁴⁷⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| T: N J Henderson

25/1

11/8, won 6-runner bumper at Wincanton (15f, soft) on debut in January 2024. Off since and in a useful race on hurdle debut but still worth a betting check.

Form: 1-

Champagne Kid³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| T: P E Collins| OR: 122

18/1

Winner of bumper at Listowel in September. Fair maiden hurdler. Below form when seventh of 17 in maiden at Limerick (19f, soft) 38 days ago.

Form: 134327

Blue Mosque⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| T: N Meade| OR: 127

4/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Cork in November. 25/1, creditable seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (23f, soft) 8 days ago, needing lesser test. Not taken lightly.

Form: 152227

Got Glory¹⁰⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| T: W P Mullins| OR: 130

4/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Has fallen on her last 2 starts but may have won but for departing 2 out at Clonmel in January. Given a bit of time since and successful on the previous occasion she was partnered by Paul Townend.

Form: 12-PFF

Forecasts

Kaid D'authie (9/4), Blue Mosque (4/1), Got Glory (4/1), American Mike (6/1), Saint Le Fort (12/1), Fad Eadrainn (16/1), Champagne Kid (18/1), Locked Box (20/1), Centreofattention (25/1), Tradecraft (33/1)

GOT GLORY is hardly one for maximum faith given her completion record but she's the form pick on these and her all-conquering stable has won 4 of the last 7 renewals. Noel Meade's Blue Mosque may appreciate the return to slightly shorter and is second choice ahead of the promising Locked Box.
