Verdict

Cases can be made for several and at the likely prices it could pay to take a chance on THESOLDIERSMINIT, who upped his game when a close third on handicap debut in February and Sam Allwood's 5-y-o has been off since producing a lesser effort the following month. Jollie Dame looks an obvious danger for top connections now handicapping, with Calibos and I Heard A Rumour another couple worth mentioning, too.

5	Much improved when third on handicap bow at Market Rasen back in February but let down by his hurdling when fifth of 7 at Huntingdon (2m, soft) the following month. One to consider provided he's fully tuned up back from 7 months off. 1st Pick 5 Thesoldiersminit (Ire) Jockey: Toby Wynne Trainer: Sam Allwood J: Toby Wynne T: Sam Allwood	100	-	-	-	15%

1	Fair form in bumpers but well beaten in 3 mares' novice hurdles back in the spring. Makes return/handicap debut and should make more of a splash here for her top stable. 2nd Pick 1 Jollie Dame Jockey: Harry Skelton Trainer: Dan Skelton J: Harry Skelton T: Dan Skelton	71	-	-	-	40%

3	Fair 1¼m Flat winner who showed an aptitude for hurdling when fourth of 8 on stable debut at Huntingdon in early-March. Fared best of the also-rans without progressing from that initial effort at Market Rasen in May and more realistic chance now making a quick switch to handicap company. 3rd Pick 3 Calibos Jockey: Gavin Sheehan Trainer: Jo Davis J: Gavin Sheehan T: Jo Davis	97	-	-	-	8%
