Worcester 19:41 Odds Comparison

Fontwell maiden hurdle winner who ran well on his only previous start here and shaped as though ready for a step back up in trip when fourth of 8 at Wincanton (21f) last time. Looks interesting off a handy mark.

Off the mark on first try over 3m at Musselburgh in February but has proved consistent rather than progressive since, finishing runner-up for the third consecutive race (wore first-time cheekpieces) at Newton Abbot (3¼m) last time.

Having been shaping up well for new connections, he notched a belated first success when seeing off Gasmani by a length at Taunton last time, and the way he travelled on that occasion suggests there could be more to come.

Hails from a very good jumping family and while he could only run to a similar level as on debut when third in a Warwick maiden (19f) last time, it's reasonable to think he could do better now handicapping over a longer trip.

Got off the mark over hurdles at Taunton in April and posted an even better effort when chasing home Noble Blue there last time. Low-mileage 7-y-o receives a healthy pull at the weights with that rival here and needs considering.

Low-mileage 5-y-o hasn't matched his fair bumper form over hurdles but did make more impact than previously when third on handicap debut at Fontwell (2¾m), shaping as though this slightly longer trip could be within range.

Veteran eight-time hurdle winner (including a pair of C&D wins last year) was unsuited by the emphasis on speed on return at Hereford and should benefit from the return to this track.

Hasn't stood much racing in recent seasons and typically didn't find much in the finish when fourth of 8 in a handicap chase at Aintree on Boxing Day. 5 lb lower over hurdles, though, and has gone well fresh previously.

Runner-up twice here before getting off the mark in a 5-runner novice at Uttoxeter in September. Lost her way at the end of last year, though, and probably needs further respite from the handicapper.

Fair winner of a 19f handicap hurdle who finished down the field at Fontainebleau on final start for M. Seror last October. Subsequently sold for €13,000 and the market should offer plenty of clues on first start for his new yard.

Pulled up on 3 of 4 of his starts for current yard and cheekpieces go back on, having look temperamental at Haydock in early March.
