Verdict
This looks an excellent opportunity for THICKTHORN TOM, who whilst a somewhat fortunate winner at Stratford 4 days ago, has proved himself a much-improved model since switched to fences and he ought to take some stopping under a penalty. Atreides is in better heart than the bare results suggest this season and this drop back in trip rates a plus. Thank You Blue also isn't out of things.

VerdictMuch improved over fences, making it 2 wins from his last 3 starts equipped with first-time blinkers at Stratford (19f) 4 days ago. Took advantage of main rival's last fence blunder then but he appeals as the one to beat once more under a penalty. - 1. Thank You BlueJ: I. J. PowerT: Jennie CandlishF: 111P5P-43

VerdictCompleted a quick-fire hat-trick over hurdles at Ludlow in February and ran better than he had on his return to chasing when staying on gradually for third at Cartmel (21f) 3 weeks ago. Much lower mark to operate from in this sphere but yet to scale same heights as he has over hurdles. - 3. AtreidesJ: Richie McLernonT: Neil MulhollandF: 511U2-635

VerdictWon back-to-back small-field handicaps in December and in better heart than the bare results this season, appearing to find the 23f trip stretching him when fifth here at the beginning of the month. This return to shorter rates more suitable provided he jumps better than last time.

VerdictDual hurdles winner during early 2023 but still a maiden over fences and having displayed more spark than for a long time when third at Hereford (25f) in March, he's proved disappointing both starts since. Mark has eased further but he increasingly seems to be going the wrong way.

Verdict9-y-o who has joined a yard that has done well with new recruits but didn't offer much over fences in Ireland in 2024/25 and not figured in points more recently. Only market support would make him of interest here.

VerdictLooked one with problems in Ireland in 2024/25 and having arrived fit from points, offered little on first outing under Rules for present yard in a first-time hood when fifth over hurdles at Uttoxeter 18 days ago. Others preferred back over fences.- Unnamed Favourite
