Comment: Nine-time hurdle winner; not in peak form this year (four runs) but can sometimes be hard to catch when he blasts off in front; makes quick reappearance after fairly good fifth at Perth (2m4f, good) on Thursday.

Comment: Ended long losing run with C&D (good) success last month and was a long way clear of the third when second to an improver over C&D a week later; 5lb higher now and patently not the force of old but still features prominently in calculations.

Comment: Placed in all four handicaps, the last three times for Neil Mulholland; slightly disappointing when third at Stratford (2m, good) in May and her tendency to race too freely remains a nagging concern but she's a contender here if suited by the new trip; tongue-tie added.

Verdict: He failed to justify late support at Newton Abbot but USYK showed enough to believe he can win a race of this nature.

Comment: Landed Irish maiden point in May and subsequently sold for 28,000euros; makes rules debut and has to be of interest.

Comment: Backed late at Newton Abbot (good; 11-8f) but was beaten 6l having got outpaced in a slowly run race; probably capable of better.

Berks And Bucks

Jockey: Tom Cannon Trainer: Lucy Wadham Age/Wt: 5/11-4

11/2

Comment: 10,000euros 3yo; second foal; dam unplaced 7f/1m, half-sister to winners Granny On Fire (1m/1m1f), Honest Broker (7f-1m3f) and Avoca Dancer (6f/7f); stable has bumper winners; needs checking in the betting.

Blue Marvel

Jockey: Harry Reed Trainer: Stuart Edmunds Age/Wt: 4/10-7

7/1

Comment: £8,500 3yo; third foal; half-sister to French 2m1f/2m2f hurdle winner Umfolozi; dam twice-raced half-sister to useful French winners Invicter (2m-2m3f hurdle/chase), Netstar (2m2f hurdle) and Presidente Line (1m4f-1m7f Flat/2m1f-2m2f hurdle); yard not noted for bumper winners (2-41 last five seasons) but it makes sense to check the betting for any confidence.

Minella Dreams

Jockey: B S Hughes Trainer: Micky Hammond Age/Wt: 5/11-4

10/1

Comment: 35,000euros foal who was sold for £3,500 late last year; dam 2m4f chase winner, closely related to smart chaser Aye Right; could be interesting with Brian Hughes up top.
