Syd Hosie, Sherborne T B Golden Vale Stud Sherborne Utilities Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Rattled off a hat-trick over hurdles back in the spring for the Tizzards and added to tally over fences in 21f contest at Newton Abbot in August. Sound-enough efforts all 3 outings since and no surprise should he be in the mix again today. TFRHHHHI BHA119

O Foxtrot Racing Ridgeway
Dan Skelton, Alcester T B Elza Petit, Hannah Petit & Berner Olsen Foxtrot Racing Syndicates S TIMEFORM VIEW Fair Flat winner who opened his account over hurdles for new yard at Doncaster in January. Failed to build on that since, though did shape much better than the bare result after 5 months off at Southwell last month (bad mistake 2 out). Interesting chasing debutant. TFRHHHII BHA108

B J. Hanly & C. Neilan TIMEFORM VIEW No easy ride but has won twice last season and continued in form (would have probably finished third had he completed at Market Rasen back in March). Fit from a spin on the Flat and could make his presence felt now if keeping his quirks in check over the larger obstacles. TFRHHHII BHA107

Milton Harris, Warminster T B Mrs D. Dewbery & Mrs B. Woodcock bresbet ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Lightly-raced sort who won 4-runner juvenile hurdle at Sandown in March. Improved further sporting first-time cheekpieces when fourth to the borderline smart Knappers Hill at that track 6 months ago and now returns to action with attentions switched to chasing. One to note. TFRHHHHH BHA115

Tony Carroll, Cropthorne T B Rabbah Bloodstock Limited Patrico Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Snapped a long losing run when running out a wide-margin winner of a Bangor handicap hurdle (16.6f) in July. Not disgraced from revised mark at Stratford last month but hardly looked like he enjoyed a first start over fences since 2018 at Fontwell earlier this month. Best watched. TFRHHIII BHA97

PLAY SMARTER
Coal Stock sets the bar of those with chasing experience but he may prove vulnerable to the younger legs of HASTY PARISIAN, who ran his best race when fourth to Knappers Hill in a competitive contest at Sandown back in March and Milton Harris’ charge can make a winning chasing debut. The aforementioned Coal Stock heads up the dangers, with another chasing debutant Ridgeway rounding off the shortlist. TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.HASTY PARISIAN (IRE) 2.COAL STOCK (IRE) 3.RIDGEWAY (FR)
