Don Brocco

10st 8lb

J: Bruce Lynn

T: Gary Rutherford

1-20 over fences and although he finished second here (4m) in March, he has run below that since at Carlisle and back over hurdles at Perth; requires an extreme test to be seen at his best.

J: Miss Lucy Brown

T: Gary Rutherford

Both hurdle wins came over 3m/3m1f on soft back in 2022; fair second in a 4m h'cap chase at Hexham last month (soft), but not so good last time.

11st 0lb

J: Edward Austin

T: Gary Rutherford

Belied 40-1 odds when keeping-on second (no threat to winner) at Hexham (4m, soft) last month and is also well suited by this track but is far too inconsistent to rely upon and would appeal more on soft/heavy ground.

J: Bruce Lynn

T: Gary Rutherford

Runner-up in this in 2024 and third last year; worth a second look given his record in the race but this 10yo has been pulled up/tailed off on his three runs this season and a major turnaround is required from 5lb wrong.

Recent form figures of P8P aren't encouraging, and he was the first beaten when returning from wind surgery at Kelso (3m2f, heavy; 25-1); on the plus side, he was runner-up to Breeze of Wind in this in 2024 and third to Betterforeveryone last year, so may revive.
