David Noonan J David Pipe, Wellington T W & S Recycling S TIMEFORM VIEW Smart handicap chaser who signed off last season with a couple of respectable efforts but is liable to need this first run back returned to the smaller obstacles, so others make more appeal. TFRHHIII BHA147
Br B or Br g Central Park (IRE) - Nan O Down The Quay Club B Mickley Stud
Tom Bellamy J Debra Hamer, Carmarthen T
TIMEFORM VIEW Useful hurdler who almost certainly needed the run when well-held over C&D on reappearance 34 days ago. Given a big chance by the handicapper since and has a fitness edge on the bulk of his rivals. TFRHHHII BHA140 RACE THREE

Harry Cobden J Paul Nicholls, Ditcheat T Owners Group S TIMEFORM VIEW Useful hurdler who made a winning return to this sphere (after a couple of chase outings) at Chepstow 7 months ago. May do better still, so definite player on return. TFRHHHHI BHA135
Br B g Rip Van Winkle (IRE) - L’Ancresse (IRE) O Oceans Racing B March Thoroughbreds
Alan Johns J Tim Vaughan, Cowbridge T Tote S TIMEFORM VIEW Lightly raced in recent seasons and offered nothing on either outing last term, so returns from 10 months off with a lot to prove. TFRHHIII BHA130
Br B g Lucarno (USA) - Brackenmoss (IRE) O Mrs M Mills & Mrs J Mills B Reveley Farms
Sam Twiston-Davies J Nigel Twiston-Davies, Cheltenham T Agetur (UK) Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Fairly useful hurdler who scored at Warwick in February and was in the process of running well when falling in a novice at the same course in April. Mark looks fair and yard should have him ready. TFRHHHHH BHA127
Br B g King’s Theatre (IRE) - Tasmani (FR) O DD Racing & Professor L P Hardwick B John Fallon
Lilly Pinchin (5) J David Dennis, Banbury T Dd Racing Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Rejuvenated for Tom Symonds/Matt Shepherd last season, signing off with a fourth win all told (third over fences) at Perth 170 days ago. Back with David Dennis and hurdles mark is potentially lenient. TFRHHHII BHA127
Br B g Scorpion (IRE) - Shanann Lady (IRE) O Nigel & Barbara Collison B Sean Cousins
Jonathan Burke J Tom George, Slad T HBA Media S TIMEFORM VIEW Looked talented in his early days but lost his way over fences for Harry Fry and this is likely to be a fact-finding mission returning from 7 months off for new yard. TFRHHIII BHA123
