FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Race-fit WALNUT BEACH could be suited by stepping up to this distance over hurdles. His only win was in a two-miles heavy-ground hurdle last February but has form at that distance on the flat, suggesting this extra distance could suit over jumps and his rider claims 7lb. Testing ground is a worry for hat-trick chasing Winning Rascal while in-form Problem Solver is 3lb out of the handicap but has form on soft and is a proven stayer. Good World seems ground and distance-versatile but has climbed back up the ratings. Touch Of Oscar's last hurdles run was when winning here in May 2019 but is suited by testing ground and this distance. Auckland steps up to this distance and has form on soft but has won just once. Time Marches On can improve from his reappearance while Bonne Debut's form is on good ground. Top weight Ballykeel's hurdles form is also on good but has point-to-point form on soft.

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards (123 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
