5:10 Plumpton Tips

Has shown some good form this year, winning at Windsor in January before finishing 2nd and 3rd in the next two races. Steps up in trip and is likely to be there or thereabouts.

Market House has been running okay on the All-Weather since having wind surgery and could be competitive back over hurdles off a mark of 94. He won at Fontwell off 91 in June over 2m 3f, and two and a half miles is within his stamina limitations if they do not go too fast.

Best run to date last time, and he just bumped into one better on the day. Has his ground again here. Gets weight off the market leaders, and any improvement on that last run will see him go mighty close here.

Raced as if something was amiss when last of 6 over course and distance last time out and was a course and distance winner in the race prior to that. That latest run can be dismissed and should have a decent chance on that penultimate races form.

A Hello Faman finished 2nd in an Irish handicap hurdle race. Was out over fences last time out but is back over hurdles today.

Her steady consistency establishes her as a robust contender for a place here at 12/1. She has secured a top-three finish in three of her last eight hurdle starts, which highlights her competitiveness in Class 5 events. Furthermore, she often copes well with similar ground conditions.

Smith has genuine each-way upside here now that he is back to his preferred 2m4f. That 3m pull-up was always likely to be a stretch, and now dropped sharply in trip he could tap back into his proven class, where he's 4 from 17 in successful places. Also blinkers have sparked placed efforts before, and fresh from a pipe-opener I expect him to travel strongly and pounce late here.
