Ascot

Tomorrow, HurdleClass 21m7f

This is wide open but Emma Lavelle's INDEMNITY continues on the up and looked well ahead of his mark when returning with a most stylish victory at Market Rasen so gets the vote from the handily-weighted Moveit Like Minnie who comes here on the back of a good Chepstow second behind Washington. A solid case can also be made for the likes of Dance And Glance, Alexei and Fasol in this cracking handicap hurdle.

    Verdict
    A fairly useful 1m4f Flat winner who landed a pair of novice hurdles at Taunton last winter. Back on the up (settled better than usual) when runner-up in 2m Chepstown handicap 20 days ago so he's firmly in the picture off an unchanged mark.

    Verdict
    A fairly useful 1m winner on Flat for Roger Varian who has started extremely well in this sphere, readily completing a hat-trick on his return in 2m handicap at Market Rasen 18 days ago. Up 6 lb but has more to offer so merits serious consideration.

    Verdict
    A dual 2m hurdles winner last term who reappeared with a good second of 8 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. This strong-traveller can go well again nudged up 1 lb.

    Verdict
    Made it 3-5 for his current yard on his return when bagging 6-runner handicap hurdle at Chepstow (16f, good to firm) 20 days ago by 2¾ lengths from Moveit Like Minnie. 4 lb worse off with that rival here but still well in the mix.

    Verdict
    A useful winning stayer on the Flat in France. Deservedly opened his hurdles account at Taunton in March and resumed with a solid fifth of 15 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (16f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Needs considering.

    Verdict
    A fairly useful 2m hurdles/chase winner who resumed on the back of breathing surgery with a good second of 6 to Washington in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (16f, good to firm) 20 days ago. A likely player off the same mark in a change of headgear.

    Bagged 2m handicaps at Sandown and Kempton last season and largely in good nick after. Goes well fresh and has had a wind op ahead of his return so he must enter calculations.

    Placed in Sandown's Imperial Cup last spring but it's now 12 runs since his last win and he was pulled up in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (2m) final run. Has since undergone breathing surgery so could bounce back.
