Race Description

This is a two miles and three furlongs handicap hurdle race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 130. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 60 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 170.

However, he offered little in 2 starts for Harriet Brown last term and hasn’t fared much better so far this season. Hood applied. TFRHIIII BHA130 3 ROUGE VIF (FR) (31) 434-F50

Harry Whittington, Sparsholt T B S.A.R.L. Ecurie D & A. Montbroussous Webbswood S TIMEFORM VIEW Smart novice hurdler a few seasons back and subsequently developed into a high-class chaser. However, failed to shine in a handful of runs for Paul Nicholls and well held back in this sphere in 2 starts since rejoining Harry Whittington in November.

Lorcan Murtagh (3) J Harry Fry, Corscombe T B Louis G. Vambeck Grosvenor Sport S TIMEFORMVIEW Made all in a bumper for Micky Hammond and is 3-3 over hurdles, her opening win at Uttoxeter strong form, while she has completed a pair of straightforward tasks since (over C&D last time). Remains with potential now venturing into handicaps after 10 months off. TFRHHHHI BHA130 5 SAYADAM (FR) (66) 1/1221-1 D

David Bass J Kim Bailey, Cheltenham T B Mr Richard Corveller Kim Bailey Racing Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Kelso bumper winner who has done nothing wrong since switched to hurdles, making it 3-5 in this sphere when scoring on handicap debut at Fontwell (19.2f, soft) in November. 4lb rise fair and he could have more to offer.

David Pipe, Wellington T B George Doyle W & S Recycling S TIMEFORMVIEW Runner-up sole run in Irish point and has made a promising start under Rules, showing a good attitude when landing Chepstow maiden and a novice here in November. Shade disappointing under a double penalty over C&D last time, though, and more needed now handicapping. TFRHHHII BHA126 7 YES NO MAYBE SO (IRE) (49) 1330/3-3

PLAY SMARTER

The vote goes to FOREVER WILLIAM, who wasn’t disgraced in a competitive 21f Cheltenham handicap last time and he looks feasibly treated, particularly judged on his placed efforts in Graded company last season. Sayadam has done little wrong in this sphere and should give another good account, but if the unbeaten Lady Adare is ready to roll following 10 months off she could emerge as the main danger given her potential. Yes No Maybe So is also worthy of consideration.
