12:53 – Ooh Betty

OOH BETTY again showed promise when third on her final qualifying run at this course a few weeks ago, sticking to her task well under hands-and-heels riding in the style of one who will be suited by stepping back up in trip. The switch to handicaps is likely to unlock more improvement, too, and there should be races to be won with her from an opening BHA mark of 95.

13:23 – Some Detail

SOME DETAIL returned to form with a good fourth at Exeter earlier this month, staying on well to pass the post only eight and a half lengths behind the winner. He is down in grade today and a BHA mark of 110 is certainly workable judged on the balance of his form. For context, he is now only 2 lb higher in the weights than when registering his latest success at this course in February, so it looks a good opportunity for him to resume winning ways if building on the promise of last time.

13:53 – American Sniper

AMERICAN SNIPER has won his last two starts over hurdles in good style, first getting off the mark at Chepstow in November and then defying a penalty to follow up over this course and distance later in the month. He once again showed an excellent attitude on the last occasion, digging deep on the run-in to land the spoils by a length. He is clearly going the right way and remains one to follow in his hat-trick bid, with further progress on the cards now up in trip.

14:23 – Bold Reaction

BOLD REACTION was held back by inexperience when third on his hurdling debut at Sandown last month, weakening gradually from two out having made several novicey mistakes during the race. That run seems sure to bring him on and the fairly useful form he showed in bumpers suggests he is likely to prove capable of better in this sphere somewhere down the line. Trained by Nicky Henderson, he is certainly in the right hands and could be worth a chance to open his account in a thin race.

14:53 – Parramount

PARRAMOUNT confirmed the promise of his hurdling debut with an easy success at Hereford last month, jumping well and quickly forging clear from the home turn to win by 10 lengths. That form is working out well (the second and fourth both won next-time-out) and Parramount is very much the type to go on improving over hurdles. This will be his toughest test yet on handicap debut, but there is a good chance he’s been underestimated by a BHA mark of 115.

15:23 – Imperial Joe

IMPERIAL JOE took his form to another level in two starts over fences earlier this year, making a successful debut at Newton Abbot in May before running at least as well in defeat when filling the runner-up spot at the same course a few weeks later. He was beaten just a head on the last occasion and probably would have won had things panned out differently, paying the price late on for becoming embroiled in a duel with the eventual third earlier than ideal. Still totally unexposed over fences, he can improve again to defy a 3 lb rise in the weights after six months off.

15:53 – Turnaway

TURNAWAY showed improved form when fitted with first-time cheekpieces for his return to action at Doncaster last month, making a bit of late headway to pass the post around four and a half lengths behind the winner. That run will have blown the cobwebs away and the step up to three miles today could give him the extra edge he needs to gain a first career victory from a 1 lb lower mark.
