S SPONSOR JOCKEY
Henry Brooke J Warren Greatrex, Upper Lambourn T 1Account Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Useful hurdler/chaser in his prime but seemingly on the downgrade nowadays and he didn’r run much of a race back hurdling at Worcester 8 weeks ago. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. TFRHHIII BHA114
Br B g Mount Nelson - Neardown Beauty (IRE) O Middleham Park Racing LXXXVIII B Geoff & Sandra Turnbull
Brendan Powell J Joe Tizzard, Sherborne T Middleham Park Racing S TIMEFORM VIEW Fair winning hurdler who made a successful chase debut over C&D last month, jumping soundly. Seems sure to do better and a 5lb rise may not stop him. TFRHHHHH BHA110
Br B g Mahler - Supreme Sunday (IRE) O StQuintonMauleIntPlyw’dVordermanS-Daniel B John and Miriam Murphy
Jack Tudor J Christian Williams, Bridgend T NAF S TIMEFORM VIEW Pair of wins last season and has remained in form with runner-up efforts at Ffos Las and Worcester in recent months. Should go well again for a yard which is no stranger to success in this contest. TFRHHHHI BHA107
Br B g Beneficial - Mellowthemoonlight (IRE) O Broadsword Group Ltd B Dominic Delaney
Tom Cannon J Chris Gordon, Winchester T Broadsword Group Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Drawn a blank since winning twice in autumn 2019. Mark has come down a good way as a result but he hasn’t been showing enough to suggest he’s ready to capitalise. Cheekpieces worn last time off, first-time tongue strap on. TFRHHIII BHA107

RACE SIX
Tom Bellamy J David Dennis, Banbury T DD Racing Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Successful in handicaps at Bangor and Kelso last summer but lost his way during the rest of the campaign and his remote second over C&D in May was no step back in the right direction. Well-held fourth at Cartmel since. TFRHHIII BHA102
Br Ch g Sans Frontieres (IRE) - Rever Up (IRE) O David Pipe Racing Club B Mr S. Wafer
Tom Scudamore J David Pipe, Wellington T W & S Recycling S TIMEFORM VIEW Four-time point winner who landed Exeter hunter on his chase debut in April. Good start in handicaps for his new stable when narrowly denied at Worcester (23f) 12 days ago. Blinkers replace cheekpieces. Likely to go well again. TFRHHHHI BHA100 (+4)
Br B g Craigsteel - Kissangel (IRE) O No Illusions Partnership B Mr John Costello
Sam Twiston-Davies J Chris Honour, Ashburton T Cotswold Stone Supplies S TIMEFORM VIEW Back to form with a bang when scoring at Warwick (25f) in May but consistency has never been his strong suit and he was well behind Jony Max at Worcester since. TFRHHIII BHA95
