Tomorrow, November 16, 2024HurdleClass 22m7f

Plenty are in with a shout but it's hard to side against Dan Skelton's upwardly-mobile DOYEN QUEST who resumed with an excellent second in a big-field Chepstow handicap (form been franked) and still looks ahead of his mark with this longer trip also a likely plus. Gavin Cromwell's new recruit Noble Birth could emerge as the main danger although fellow Irish challenger Zeeband commands plenty of respect for last year's winning yard. In-form duo Gowel Road and Itso Fury can both have a say too.

    Verdict
    Likeable sort who signed off last term with gutsy success here in April. Resumed his progress on seasonal return with an excellent second of 17 in handicap at Chepstow (19.4f) 35 days ago. That form has been franked so big shout also stepping up in trip.

    Held his form well last season and he resumed with a good second of 12 in handicap over C&D 21 days ago. No surprise to see another good run from this course winner.

    Verdict
    A fairly useful 23f hurdles winner for Eric McNamara. Shaped well on his yard debut when third of 12 in handicap chase at Cork (3m) 34 days ago. Usual tongue strap goes back on now and not without interest.

    In fine form when last seen out 12 months ago, scoring here and posting a good fourth of 20 in handicap hurdle here (21f). Has won off a break so no forlorn hope despite his long absence.

    Verdict
    Useful winning hurdler who cosily got off the mark over fences in 3m Wetherby handicap two weeks ago. Very much one to consider now reverting to this sphere.

    Verdict
    A dual hurdles winner in the summer who got right back on track when a clear second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Galway (21.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Can give another good account for last year's winning yard despite a 7 lb rise.

    Has an all-or-nothing profile but made it 4 wins over fences for his current yard at Wincanton in February. Has run poorly both starts this term though and reverts to hurdles with lots more required.

    C&D winner but he's an unreliable individual and was pulled up on the back of a breathing op in handicap chase here (25f, good) 21 days ago. Has work to do.

    Verdict
    Successful chaser in France who doubled his career tally when bagging minor event hurdle at Clairefontaine (17.7f) in July. Looked rusty for his new yard when tenth of 13 in handicap hurdle here (19.9f, good) 22 days ago. Can take a step forward now.
