3 VOLKOVKA (FR) (231) 3/12645- 5 11-9
Br B m Camelot - Drole de Dame (IRE) (Anabaa (USA)) Liam Harrison (3) J O The Tyringham Partnership Fergal O’Brien, Cheltenham T B E.A.R.L. Ecurie Haras Du Cadran et al TIMEFORM VIEW Fairly useful handicap hurdler who signed off last season with an underwhelming effort at Chepstow 7 months ago.

4 MOULINS CLERMONT (FR) (202) 3/61P1- CD 4 11-9
Br B g Free Port Lux - Ania de Clermont (FR) (Ungaro (GER)) Jamie Moore J O Alan Jamieson Site Services Ltd Gary Moore, Horsham T B H. Laloi, G. Trinquet & R. Poiron K M Elite Products Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Impressive winner of a juvenile at this track in January and back on track to double his tally in a 3-runner event at Fakenham 6 months ago.

Br Gr g Montmartre (FR) - Mont Doree (FR) (Mansonnien (FR)) Tom O’Brien J O Dr V. M. G. Ferguson Philip Hobbs, Minehead T B Michael Fennessy Boodle Hatfield Llp S TIMEFORM VIEW Progressive over hurdles (won twice) before shaping better than the bare result in the Imperial Cup on his final outing of the campaign.

Thompson Cotswold Stone Supplies S TIMEFORM VIEW Dual-bumper winner who confirmed hurdling debut promise when wide-margin winner at Chepstow (2m) in January. Not disgraced next time but below best when last seen 7 months ago. Has had a breathing op and on a tempting mark for handicap debut. TFRHHIII BHA117
7 IRISH HILL (GER) (183) 13231-2 D BF 4 11-0
Br Gr g Kingston Hill - Irresistable (GER) (Monsun (GER)) Harry Cobden J O Sir Martin Broughton & Friends 8 Paul Nicholls, Ditcheat T B Gestut Hachtsee Morson Group S TIMEFORM VIEW Fairly useful on the Flat in Germany and did well in this sphere last season, winning Taunton juvenile in December and Chepstow handicap.

Raquin & SARL Poulinieres.com Planned Office Interiors Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Easy winner of a 2m Uttoxeter maiden in the mud in December.

First run for yard after leaving A. Boisbrunet. Notable handicap/British debutant for top stable. TFRHHHHI BHA114

Br B g Jeu St Eloi (FR) - Liliane Star (FR) (Anabaa Blue) Brendan Powell J O Acorn Builders Dorset Ltd Robert Walford, Blandford T B Mme Marie-Pierre Lejeune TIMEFORM VIEW Scored on his sole start in France but proved too headstrong all four runs in Britain for Tom Symonds and offered little on debut for new stable at Plumpton 20 days ago. Others preferred. TFRHIIII BHA105

PLAY SMARTER GIPSY DE CHOISEL is still lightly raced and opened his account in ready fashion at Warwick when last seen. There’s more to come from him and he could defy a rise at the likely expense of Irish Hill, who also has the scope for better. Krypton Gold arrives in good order and has a fitness edge, so his claims can’t be ignored.
