Plumpton
Handicap | Hurdle | 1m 7f 195y
Going: Soft
OffLow Expectations
The standout candidates are LOW EXPECTATIONS and No More Bolero, both of whom make strong appeal under penalties for their recent victories at Windsor and Ludlow respectively. Preference is for the former, who appears to be firmly on the up and the hat-trick beckons for this 5-y-o. Inferno Sacree has C&D winning form and is best of the rest.

Has looked an improved model this season, winning handicaps at Fontwell (17.7f) and Windsor (2½m) with minimum fuss. Carries a 7 lb penalty for latter success and, with this drop back in trip unlikely to pose a problem, he should complete the hat-trick.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWindsor2m 4fGood to SoftHurdle1/9Fontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood to SoftHurdle1/10Fontwell Park2m 3f 29yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle6/12Exeter2m 7f 25yGood to Firm (Good in places)Hurdle4/6Fontwell Park2m 3f 29yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle7/10- 3ThankyouandpleaseJ: Conor O'FarrellT: Syd Hosie4243-36Age 513/2

Promising third on handicap debut at Newton Abbot during the spring, but has failed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts and he's probably worth taking on.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewton Abbot2m 5f 122yGood to SoftHurdle6/8Fontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/6Newton Abbot2m 167yHeavyHurdle3/8Plumpton1m 7f 195yGoodHurdle4/5Exeter2m 5f 137yGood to Firm (Good in places)Hurdle2/3- 1Inferno SacreeJ: Bryan CarverT: Nigel Hawke63253-3Age 715/2

Winless since bagging back-to-back handicaps during spring 2023, but he has been placed on a number of occasions in the interim. Beaten a fair way when third on return at Sedgefield (16.8f, soft) last week, but entitled to come on for that and he's an each-way candidate.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSedgefield2m 178ySoftHurdle3/9Plumpton1m 7f 195yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle3/10Sedgefield2m 178yGoodHurdle5/6Sedgefield2m 178yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle2/4Plumpton2m 4f 114ySoft (Heavy in places)Hurdle3/5- 4Hill StationJ: Luke ScottT: Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole2632122Age 68/1

Four-time winner on the Flat (all AW) and finally off the mark over hurdles at Stratford in September. Runner-up both subsequent starts, including over this C&D a fortnight ago, but now 11 lb higher than when scoring at Stratford.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosPlumpton1m 7f 195yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle2/8Fontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle2/8Stratford-on-avon2m 70yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/11Newton Abbot2m 2f 110yGoodHurdle2/13Uttoxeter1m 7f 168yGoodHurdle3/14- 6Gregorians StarJ: Marc GoldsteinT: Sheena West533-794Age 418/1

Debut bumper winner and, though yet to score on the Flat/hurdles, he took a small step back in the right direction in a first-time hood (tongue tie also reapplied) when fourth in an 8-runner C&D handicap 2 weeks ago. 2 lb lower now and he's not without each-way hope.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosPlumpton1m 7f 195yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle4/8Kempton Park2mGood (Good to Firm in Places)Hurdle9/9Bath1m 5f 11yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat7/12Bath2m 1f 24ySoftFlatpu/14Bath1m 3f 137yHeavyFlat3/8- 7Voix De BocelliJ: Brendan PowellT: Henrietta C Knight6376-44Age 520/1

Fair winner on the Flat, but 0-15 over jumps and was again below his best when fourth at Wincanton recently.

Opened hurdles account in handicap at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) on second run following a lengthy absence in May. However, wasn't able to back that up when beaten 33½ lengths into fourth in Fontwell race won by Low Expectations last time.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood to SoftHurdle4/10Uttoxeter1m 7f 168yGoodHurdle1/8Huntingdon1m 7f 171yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdlepu/13Uttoxeter1m 7f 168yGood to Soft (Good in places)Hurdle8/10Newton Abbot2m 167yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle5/8- Non-Runners

Back to form when opening hurdles account at the ninth attempt with a dominant display at Ludlow (15.8f, good to soft) last week. Harry Cobden again in the hot-seat and this 6-y-o and another bold show is very much on the cards.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLudlow1m 7f 169yGood (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle1/11Newbury2mSoftFlat10/11Chester1m 6f 87yHeavyFlat11/13Chester1m 7f 196yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat2/12Fontwell Park2m 1f 162yGood to SoftHurdle4/11
