Marhaba The Champ

Age: 7
Weight: 11st 12lbs
Or: 95

Fairly useful Flat performer but refused to race on latest start in that sphere and ended up too far out of his ground when respectable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (17f, good to soft, 12/1) 20 days ago. Comes with some risks attached.

Wise Counsellor

Fairly-useful maiden at best on the Flat (stays 1¾m) for Andrew Balding but lost his way in that sphere at the end of last summer and efforts over hurdles to date have not been at all promising. Cheekpieces on first time over jumps. Makes handicap hurdle debut.

Makinbecon

Age: 6
Weight: 10st 11lbs
Or: 80

Off the mark at sixth attempt when taking 9-runner handicap hurdle over C&D (good) 27 days ago by ½ length from Saucats. 5 lb higher now but yard continues in fine form.

Timeform Verdict

Preference is for PHANTOM GOLD, who has few miles on the clock and produced a personal best when runner-up at Southwell a fortnight ago. Makinbecon and Katana are feared most.

Betting Forecast

18/1 Privilege, 12/1 Marhaba The Champ, 25/1 Man Oh Man (Ire), 10/1 Saucats (Fr), 15/2 Katana (Fr), 12/1 Warfleet, 7/1 Chartwell Jock, 50/1 Wise Counsellor, 40/1 Crab Road (Ire), 13/2 Makinbecon
