Mulcahys Hill 14.00 Newcastle 6 Pts Win @ 8\11 (bog)

2nd -  led, headed after 9th, tracked winner, pushed along 4 out, outpaced by winner next

Rouge VIF 13.45 Leicester 7 Pts Win @ 1\7 (bog)

Useful triple-hurdles winner who matched that form to score on chase bow at Market Rasen. Didn't do a lot wrong when second in the Wayward Lad last month (on the back of a wind op) and he should win.

Non Runner

Bob and Co. 15.15 Warwick 7 Pts WIn @ 4\6 (bog)

Smart hurdler/chaser in France who looks a notable recruit for top connections so, provided he's fully tuned up back from 10 months off, he'll take all the beating.

PU -  pulled hard, led, not fluent 4th or 9th, rider having problems after 11th and looked difficult to control, pulled up before 12th (jockey reported he was having cramps in his legs)

Squeaky Bum Time

Young Offender 15.45 Fakenham 8 Pts WIn @ 5\6 (bog)

Runner-up sole outing in Irish points and left hurdling debut form behind (strong in betting) when game winner of 2½m novice here last month. Likely to progress again now upped further in trip.

:wall  3rd -  led, not fluent 2 out, headed last bend, soon 3rd and one pace

Mister Coffey 12.50 Huntingdon 9 Pts Win @ 1\3 (bog)

Impressive when justifying short odds in Huntingdon bumper for Harry Whittington in April. Transferred to Nicky Henderson for £340,000 and also looked good on last month's hurdles bow at Newbury.

2nd -  jumped left at times, pulled hard, led, clear until before 3 out, headed after 2 out, no extra flat

Well an unwanted record today 5 consecutive losers equals 2016\17 and last year, both still finished in profit.

1 win in 9 is not good at all. Will I have enough time to get back in profit ?

Paisley Park 15.35 Cheltenham 10 Pts Win @ 4\6 (bog)

Cemented spot at top of the staying tree over hurdles with a fine win in the Stayers' Hurdle over C&D. Added to winning spree in the Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury and he can land this race again.

1st @ 4\6 -  mid-division, closed 6th, ridden off last bend, led last, pricked ears flat, stayed on, driven out

Desaray Girl 14.00 Sedgefield 10 Pts WIn @ 1\6 (bog)

Bred to make a jumper and has readily left behind her bumper form over hurdles, winning a brace of 10-runner contests. Hat-trick firmly on the cards despite a double penalty.

1st @ 1\6 - made all, wandered 1st, clear from 2 out, mistake last, easily

Cat Tiger 14.30 Plumpton 10 Pts WIn @ Evens (bog)

Smart chaser in France who boasts some solid novice form and defied a penalty when making all over C&D (soft) 22 days ago, pushed out. Carries a double penalty but sure to make another bold bid.

Dunly 15.10 Newcastle 9 Pts Win @ 6\5 (bog)

Fair in bumpers. No impact over hurdles last term but different proposition over fences this season, winning last 2 starts at Ayr and this C&D. Will go on improving and obvious claims under a penalty.

Imperial Alcazar 13.45 Leicester 10 Pts WIn @ 1\2 (bog)

Useful in bumpers and made a successful debut over hurdles at Aintree (20f) in October. Better form when runner-up twice since (listed event latterly) and sets a good standard for a race like this.

Five O Clock 15.10 Limerick 10 Pts WIn @ 2\7 (bog)

Promising individual. 1/4, first run since leaving P. Lenogue when second of 14 in novice hurdle at Tramore (21f, heavy) on IRE NH debut 51 days ago. Down in trip. Trainer going well. Has good chance.

@Ratso he looked a bit dodgy when he jumped the last and hung badly to the left, lucky he found the rail.

1st @ 4\7 -  tracked leaders, 4th from 5th, on terms after 3 out, raced on outer straight, led before 2 out, slight mistake last, joined run-in, stayed on best to prevail near line

Alhomora 15.40 Catterick 10 Pts Win @ 8\13 (bog)

Has taken her form to a new level recently, winning novice chase at Limerick and 3m handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse. Makes handicap chase debut and this Irish-raider is somewhat of an unknown quantity.

Dorking Cock 15.25 Carlisle 12 Pts Win @ 4\6 (bog)

Fairly useful 17f winner over hurdles. Jumped better than previously when off the mark over fences at Chepstow 4 weeks ago and there's scope for better still.

The Mighty Don 13.40 Market Rasen 12 Pts Win @ 5\6 (bog)

Very useful staying hurdler. Has just about matched that form over fences without getting his head in front but this much less demanding than recent assignments and big player if jumping holds up.

Paint the Dream 14.15 Ludlow 13 Pts Win @ 8\13 (bog)

Successful hurdler going the right way over fences, second in good 20f Sandown handicap before seeming to excel himself behind Midnight Shadow in the Dipper. Good opportunity for him down in trip.

Shishkin 14.31 Huntingdon 14 Pts Win @ 4\11 (bog)

Irish point/bumper winner who looked a really exciting prospect when winning 14-runner novice at Newbury impressively last month. Outstanding claims up in trip.

The Cashel Man 15.15 Bangor 14 Pts Win @ 2\9 (bog)

Useful Flat winner who has taken really well to hurdles, making all in 20f Newbury handicap before fine second to smart Thyme Hill in Grade 1 there. Proven at this trip so very hard to beat.

Native River 15.00 Newbury 14 Pts Win @ 1\3 (bog)

Outstayed Might Bite to land the 2018 Cheltenham Gold Cup and first success since when blitzing his rivals at Aintree in December in first-time blinkers. Third straight win in this on the cards.

Ferny Hollow 16.55 Punchestown 14 Pts Win @ 1\2 (bog)

Twice-raced maiden. 8/13, second of 10 in bumper at Leopardstown (16f, soft) 43 days ago, clear of rest. Hood on 1st time. Shouldn't have much trouble getting off the mark.

Fraser Island 14.15 Plumpton 14 Pts Win @ 6\4 (bog)

Fairly useful on the Flat and looked a smart recruit to hurdles when scoring by 11 lengths first time up at Newbury. Just third under a penalty in the mud at Kempton next time but retains potential.

First Flow 15.30 Leicester 15 Pts Win @ 4\6 (bog)

Useful 2m hurdler who has made a positive start over fences this campaign, runner-up first 2 starts before landing odds at Hereford. Has remained in top form since and could well make all.

Fix Sun 14.45 Fakenham 15 Pts WIn @ 1\3 (bog)

Bumper winner in France who made it 2 wins from as many starts over hurdles in impressive style after 8 months off at Market Rasen (18.6f). Tongue tie added and should take plenty of beating again.

** Things not looking good this year, yesterday summed this thread up, Need a good run from now till the end of February to have any chance of finishing in profit.

Cyrname 15.35 Ascot 16 Pts Win @ 4\11 (bog)

Form took off with handicap/Grade 1 wins early last year, then saw off Altior in the 1965 chase over C&D on return. Below expectations when second in King George but returns to ideal conditions now.

£330,000 4-y-o, Fame And Glory gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful 2½m chase winner Legal Eyes. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler Flemenson. Winner of sole start between the flags.

Sao Maxence 14.15 Carlisle 18 Pts Win @ 1\2 (bog)

Won a bumper on debut at Ayr over 2 years ago then was a good second under a penalty. Promising second on hurdling debut at Ayr on belated return last month and sets the standard on that form.
