Lone Star (M)
[T]
Market Rasen winner last summer. Creditable second over 2½m at Uttoxeter when last seen in September. Claims if ready to roll after 6 months off.

Tyson (G)
FAV
Maiden but hasn't been with Dan Skelton for long and caught eye when fifth of 12 at Wincanton (2m, good to soft) last time. Taken to build on that promise.
|
Tristan Durrell | D Skelton | 6 | 74.4 kg |
1.73
8/11
|
| 8th | 3 | — |
Slack Alice (M)
Maiden in varied company but this is her first handicap hurdle and it wouldn't be a surprise were she to step up on her previous efforts in this sphere now.
|
James Bowen | M Bowen | 5 | 73.5 kg |

18/1

| 2nd | 4 | — |
Ushuaia Dancer (G)
Absent since reaching the frame in a pair of handicap hurdles in May 2024. The betting should help guide as to what's expected on this belated return.
|
Callum Bewley | Justin Landy | 8 | 71.2 kg |

18/1

| 4th | 5 | — |
Lady Phoebe (M)
Modest winner on Flat who has yet to make a significant impact over hurdles, beaten 17 lengths when fourth in C&D handicap (good to soft) 4 weeks ago.
|
Ryan Mania | A Nicol | 5 | 70.8 kg |

9/1
|
| 6th | 6 | — |
Glory Hights (G)
[P]
Hasn't finished out of the frame in 7 hurdle starts at this track, including second and fourth (to Fairly Fulling) over this trip in recent weeks. Likely to be in the shake-up again.
|
Danny McMenamin | C Grant | 10 | 70.8 kg |

Fairly Fulling (G)
[PT]
Finally got off the mark over hurdles when seeing off 14 rivals (including Glory Hights) over C&D (good to soft) 17 days ago. Likely to remain very competitive off 7 lb higher.
|
Nathan Moscrop | S Corbett | 8 | 70.3 kg |
3.75
11/4

Joto (M)
[T]
Is 0-8 over hurdles but she has finished a creditable third in handicaps on her last 3 outings. Likely to be thereabouts again.
|
Alice Stevens | John Dawson | 6 | 66.2 kg |

| 5th | 9 | — |
Rock N Roll Champ (G)
[P]
Maiden but was a respectable third in a C&D handicap at the end of January. Remote fourth returned to fences at Sedgefield and quickly back over the smaller obstacles.
|
Edward Austin | Miss S E Forster | 8 | 65.3 kg |

| 7th | 10 | — |
Mr Rumbalicious (G)
[T]
Winless since 2023 and pulled up on last month's return from a break at Catterick. Hard to make a case for.
|
William Maggs | James Moffatt | 7 | 64.4 kg |

Betting forecast: Tyson (8/11), Fairly Fulling (11/4), Glory Hights (5/1), Joto (11/2), Lady Phoebe (9/1), Ushuaia Dancer (18/1), Slack Alice (18/1), Lone Star (20/1), Rock N Roll Champ (20/1), Mr Rumbalicious (40/1)
