Gold Link
GOLD LINK has shown consistent form over hurdles with two consecutive seconds, shaping best at Uttoxeter before late jumping errors cost him. He's fancied to go one better and record a first win in this sphere. Robber's Bridge is a dual handicap hurdle winner who ran on well at Worcester on his most recent outing despite jumping issues, and should go well again, while D'jo Dela Barriere will benefit from a return to calmer waters.

Won maiden over 20f at Perth before proving a disappointment under a penalty at Uttoxeter (8/13) 35 days ago. Should appreciate the step up in trip on handicap debut but her opening mark could have been a bit kinder.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosUttoxeter1m 7f 168yGoodHurdle3/10Perth2m 4f 35yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle1/9Worcester2mGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle4/11- 5Gold LinkJ: Ben JonesT: Emma Lavelle646-622Age 97/23/110/3

Returned to hurdles with two consecutive second-place finishes after moderate runs over fences. Shaped best for much of the way when 2nd of 13 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (5/2) 33 days ago, going well before jumping errors cost him ground late on.

Without a win in 19 starts and finished fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (8/1) 33 days ago, not ideally placed and would benefit from more of a test at the trip. Drops in grade but the return to a shorter trip isn't sure to suit.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosUttoxeter2m 7f 70yGoodHurdle4/6Uttoxeter2m 7f 70yGoodHurdle2/3Worcester2m 7fGoodHurdle4/9Uttoxeter2m 7f 70yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle7/12Uttoxeter2m 3f 207yGood to SoftHurdle5/15- 4JanworthJ: Gavin SheehanT: Jamie Snowden27-1F14Age 85/14/19/2

Progressive since returning from 11 months off in May, winning handicaps at Sedgefield and at Worcester, either side of a final-flight fall at Southwell (had the race sewn up when departing). Ran respectably from an 8 lb higher mark back at Worcester last time but never threatened.

Had a sound record in handicaps for Simon Earle and proved better than ever after 6 months off/in refitted hood when making a winning stable debut at Market Rasen (18.6f) in April. Not seen to best effect in a falsely-run race back there in May before a respectable third at Worcester.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWorcester2m 4fGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle3/14Market Rasen2m 4f 139yGoodHurdle2/6Market Rasen2m 2f 140yGoodHurdle1/11Worcester2m 4fSoftHurdle4/9Worcester2m 4fGoodHurdle1/14- 6Lightning MaqueenJ: Rob HargreavesT: Gary & Josh Moore5/5P-33Age 513/213/27/1

Showed promise in bumpers and much more like it over hurdles when third of 8 in a course maiden in May. Ran to a similar level when filling same spot on handicap debut back here (17.7f) last time and now steps up in trip in a first-time tongue strap.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/6Fontwell Park2m 3f 29yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/8Huntingdon2m 3f 137yGoodHurdlepu/4Newbury2m 4f 118ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle5/5Fontwell Park1m 5f 159yHeavyBumper5/6- 3D'jo Dela BarriereJ: Miss Eleanor WilliamsT: Evan Williams86-1355Age 69/111/110/1

Won a handicap hurdle at Plumpton (4/1) in May but has run slightly below that level all 3 outings since, including in better company at Market Rasen last time when jumping tentatively and uncomfortable with the pace. Return to calmer waters more suitable at least.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosMarket Rasen2m 4f 139yGoodHurdle5/8Ffos Las2m 4fGood to SoftHurdle5/6Ffos Las2m 7f 191yGoodHurdle3/4Plumpton2m 4f 114yGood (Good To Soft In Places)Hurdle1/5Taunton2m 3f 1yGood to Firm (Good in places)Hurdle6/7
