WRECKLESS ERIC looked menacing when coming down at the second last on his Wincanton reappearance and could prove the answer with the O'Neill stable going well. Balhambar, an improver in handicap hurdles in the spring, arrives fit from a run on the Flat last month and heads the many dangers along with low-mileage handicap newcomers Fasol, Can't Resist It and Clap of Thunder.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful on the Flat for Michael Bell and much improved over hurdles since handicapping, winning at Ludlow and Bangor in April. Warmed up for this with a creditable third on the Flat at Newbury last month. Has cheekpieces and a tongue tie combined for the first time. Considered.

    Verdict
    Very useful winning stayer on Flat in France. Promise when placed twice in maiden hurdles at Newbury and Kempton earlier in the year. Respectable fourth in Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot when last seen in June. Dangerously well treated on Flat ability on handicap hurdle debut.

    Verdict
    Bumper winner at the third attempt and also landed 2 of her first 3 starts over hurdles. Even better form when reaching the frame in 2½m handicaps since (here last time) but isn't sure to benefit from this return to a shorter trip. Wears first-time cheekpieces.

    Verdict
    Raced around 2m, winning a juvenile and handicap for Ben Pauling in the spring. Held every chance when falling 2 out in Wincanton handicap on reappearance and looks one to keep on side for his in-form new yard.

    Verdict
    Completed a cross-code hat-trick over the summer, the last 2 wins coming in handicap hurdles. Possibly unsuited by rain-softened ground when below-form third in Killarney novice last month and no surprise were he to resume his progression now.

    Placed on 3 of 4 starts in bumpers last season. Struck at the second time of asking over hurdles when readily seeing off 5 rivals in a 2m Ascot novice 13 days ago. Interesting making a quick switch to handicaps.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful 5-time winner on the Flat for Ian Williams and has taken well to hurdling for this yard, winning a 2m Haydock juvenile and 17.5f Musselburgh handicap in the spring. Creditable second at Hereford when last seen in May and has the potential for even better this winter.

    Fairly useful Flat winner and made a successful start over hurdles at Cartmel (17f) in July. Runner-up under a penalty at Stratford in September but well-beaten fourth on Worcester handicap debut later that month. The cheekpieces he wore regularly on the Flat go on for the first time over hurdles.
