Verdict

THORGATH was only beaten by a well-treated one on handicap debut and he's narrowly preferred to Don't Tell Rosie who shaped well over C&D last time. Somethingtosomeone could be worth another chance back over hurdles.

1	Showed much improved form when finding only a fellow handicap debutant (winner subsequently) too good at Uttoxeter (19.9f, heavy) last month.

6	Maiden who had been disappointing this season prior to finishing third in 10-runner C&D handicap last month. Travelled strongly that day and remains one to be interested in off only 1 lb higher. 2nd Pick 6 Don't Tell Rosie Jockey: Lorcan Williams Trainer: Jeremy Scott J: Lorcan Williams T: Jeremy Scott	100	-	-	-	34%

8	Fair maiden who was still in contention when a tired faller at the last in mares' handicap hurdle on reappearance. Hasn't met expectations in pair of starts over fences but may do better back over hurdles in first-time visor. 3rd Pick 8 Somethingtosomeone (Ire) Jockey: Toby Mccain-Mitchell Trainer: Ben Clarke J: Toby Mccain-Mitchell T: Ben Clarke	97	-	-	-	12%
