Whilst still a fan of speed figures, I have been trialling a new system over the last 6 months which is predominantly based on Handicappers who look to have a good chance at the weights but may have been overlooked by the market. Majority of my bets will be 10/1 or higher unless something majorly stands out.

Lose

-50

FRANK THE SPARK is worth a chance on the back of his wind surgery since last seen, when a very poor 8th of 10 at Ripon. His penultimate run saw him finish 4th of 13 over course and distance off a mark 1lb higher than he goes off today, so if race fit could easily play his part.

GAELIC PARK won the last time he was seen over hurdles 4 starts back, winning a Maiden but the 30 lengths winning margin makes his mark of 112 looks generous at this point. Disappointed in three chase starts since, but if this switch back to hurdles works the trick, could prove to be a good bit of value.

True Destiny

@31.00

Lose

-50

TRUE DESTINY has a good record when fresh, so his 260 day absence isn't necessarily a negative. His last run was a respectable 6th of 13 finish over 20f. Better over further, as proven by his 2nd of 15 off a mark of 101 at Kilbeggan back in June last year. Only 1lb higher than that today and makes his debut for his new yard today, which may give him a boost. Weighted to be competitive and certainly looks overpriced at present.

NO NO MAESTRO was well held last time out when making his return to action, but he had been off since June 23. He's dropped 3lb due to that and is now only 1lb higher than his win at Uttoxeter, the last time he raced prior to his comeback. Likely needed the run last time and should be sharper for it, which makes him good value at the current price.

SMALL FRY needs to prove he has the stamina for this test, but his one positive piece of two-year-old form should stand him in good stead if he does. That was a 3rd of 6 finish over 7f at Roscommon back in September last year, finishing half a length behind a next time out winner.

TORIANGEL doesn't have a bad record fresh, and she's dropped considerably in the weights since her last decent outing 3 runs back when 3 lengths 7th of 17 back in August last year. Ran off 69 on that occasion and only 61 today following two below par efforts.

ROSSIES TARA was tailed off last time finishing last of 14, albeit racing on the unfavourable part of the track. Her penultimate run was ruined by poor jumping and eventually unseated her rider having been working her way into the race. If she can put both those runs behind her and get back to the level of her 4th of 17 at Galway back in September last year, then she stands a good chance today. She's off the same mark and looks weighted to be competitive if race ready, and it helps that she's gone well fresh before.

-50

HEAD AND HEART has been out of sorts the last 3 races, failing to finish on each occasion. It's the change of headgear today with first time blinkers applied that catches the eye as it may be enough to get her focus back. Prior to her drop-off, she won at Warwick, beating a field of 10 by 4 lengths off a mark of 100. Only 2lb higher than that, and if the Blinkers have the desired effect then she could certainly play her part.

RED HEEL has gone well fresh a few times in her career, so it would be no surprise to see a competitive performance from her over a course and distance she's won before. She's moved yards since last seen, and although the yard haven't been in the best of form of late, it may be the switch that sparks new life into her following a couple of very poor runs to end last season. She goes off 72 today, 1lb lower than the 73 she finished a close 3rd of 9 off back in September last year (3 runs back) and any repeat of that sort of effort would put her in the frame amongst this field.

Win

175

WAHRAAN has to be given a chance in this on old form, even if that was from back in 2022. He finished 3rd of 5 back in Aug 22 in a class 2 off a mark of 94, much higher than the 82 he runs off today. Only 3 runs since then so clearly raced very sparingly, but full of ability on his day. Latest run was his first for over a year when 10th of 12 at Southwell on the all weather, but has always seemed far better on turf, and is well suited to this trip. Goes in first time Hood today and is well weighted amongst this field. Has a lot to prove but was looked after last time out having been poorly placed and probably has an eye on some turf outings this season all being well.

If TRESHNISH is on a going day then he has every chance in this based on his 4th of 6 effort here back in December. That was a creditable effort off a mark of 98, and now runs off a mark of 85 following to well below par efforts. Both of those were away from Hexham where he has solid course and distance form to his name, and in first time blinkers may well outrun his odds. Fair each way value.

ARECIBO goes here after a 204 day absence, but now at a new trainer may have been rejuvenated, albeit at the age of 9. Didn't finish last season all that strongly but prior to his last two runs to end last season, he finished a very close 3rd of 12 off a mark of 92 over 5f. Down to a mark of 86 on his return and also has a very good stall to work from in this. Yard switch may help him and if he's ready to go should be competitive off a reduced rating.

BIRD OF PLAY has switched yards since he was last season, now running for Liam Bailey, and it may prove to be a way for him to regain his best form. Far from his best towards the end of last season, and has since had a break of 194 days. That said, he was an incredibly close 2nd of 10 at Doncaster back in June last year off a mark of 71, which was followed up by another respectable 3rd of 10 over the same course and distance off just 1lb higher. If he manages a performance similar to those then he certainly has a chance in this, now running off 66. Good jockey in the saddle with a good low draw and what appears likely to be a decent pace to aim at.

NEVER SHOUT NEVER ran a massive race the last time he was seen over 6f ( 4 starts back) finishing 2nd of 22 over course and distance off a mark of 86. Ran over 5f the next three times off higher marks, but the drop back to 86 and increase in trip back to 6f may be the key to another big run from him, especially with proven form on heavy and a decent enough draw to work from. Couple of runs under his belt now this season so could be primed for this.

YOUNG JACK will definitely benefit from the step back up in trip here, having shown his best form in three runs to date over 20f when winning a Novice by 5 lengths up against 10 rivals. Wasn't disgraced dropped in trip last time out finishing 3rd of 7, but certainly gave the impression he wants further. Goes over 3 mile for the first time today and given the likelihood of improvement is sure to be a massive player in this, and ground conditions won't be a problem.

MR VANGO has gone up 15lb for his win at Exeter back in February when running over 3m6f off 120 on heavy ground. Cleary has plenty of ability over these sort of trips and on testing ground, so stamina will be no concern today. The big rise in the weights would usually put me off, however he won that race by 60 lengths against a field of 8, so there's a strong case to be made that the rise is warranted. If he can run to that level again then he has every chance in this and at fair value too.

HECOULDBETHEONE is tried in first time Cheekpieces today, something which may create a spark in a horse that has proven to be good on his day. He's has been well below form the last twice, but those runs have come over 16f, and he's arguably more effective over todays distance. With that in mind and his tumbling mark, he offers some solid value, especially at a venue he's gone well at before.

When last seen she won over 6f at Wolverhampton off 71, and off only 3lb higher today should continue to progress, and now with first time cheekpieces. She's undergone wind surgery during her break as well which may well aid her chances moving forward. Far from the best of the draw but top jockey and definitely and each way chance.

HYMAC has given the impression that he will be suited by further than he has so far been tested over, especially when 3rd of 9 at Taunton on his penultimate start. That came off a mark of 122, and has already dropped 2lb since then following a creditable 2nd of 7 last time out, albeit over what is unlikely to be an ideal trip (20f) Still lightly raced certainly well weighted to be competitive in this for his in form yard if taking to the extra distance today as expected. Seems likely to have more in his locker than currently shown and very fair value in this.

Similar conditions faced again today, but now 4lb lower and sure to go well here for his in form yard with Cobden again in the saddle for this race. Out of sorts since that effort but has come down in the weight and will likely appreciate the step back up in distance having run over 2 mile (including a couple of Chase outings) the last 3 occasions.

MEETINGOFTHEWATERS still looks to have plenty of room for improvement, so tackling this at a time when he's already proven competitive off this mark last time out (32 days ago) when 3rd of 21 at Cheltenham on heavy ground, should see him go very well. The National is a lottery and no matter how good he may or may not be, luck will play a part in this, but he's travelled well through some of his races which will help in this massive field and his jumping seems solid. He seems certain to stay beyond the 25f he's so far raced over, how much further will be on display today. Has to be in with a good chance.

VALENS BRUYEE has only run over hurdles at this trip once, which came three starts back in a Novice, and he did win by 9.5 lengths. Two efforts since over slightly further in handicaps may have tested him too much as his jumping appeared to suffer, but now back at the scene of his course and distance win, there's no reason why he can't go well again. Mark doesn't look to steep and ground shouldn't be an issue.

Every reason to think he could, as he now has two runs behind him this season which he will have likely needed to get back up to speed having missed the whole of 2023. Course and distance winner and big odds on offer make him good value here.

C'EST RIEN is slowly becoming a cliff horse for me, so bare that in mind, but she really is a great deal better than the levels she's showing at the moment. Tongue strap goes back on following its removal last time out, and this does seem to be her optimum trip, finishing 4th of 9 last November 5 starts back off a mark of 92, form which if repeated would easily put her in the frame today.

Two runs this season haven't produced much, however despite finishing 27 lengths last of 7 last time out, he was clear until making a mistake at the eighth, meaning he weakened severely late on. Clearly much better than that and dropped 4lb for his troubles so has a few things going in his favour at decent odds.
