Bigz Belief (10/1 – Bet365)
Despite some inconsistent recent form, Bigz Belief has shown flashes of ability in the past. Tom Broughton takes the ride for Barry Brennan, and this gelding could surprise if rediscovering his best.
Zhang Fei (6/1 – Unibet)
Fergal O’Brien’s runner has been knocking on the door with some solid efforts, including a second-place finish last time out. Fern O’Brien rides, and a repeat performance could see him go close here.
Fine By Her (16/1 – Betvictor)
Julian Smith’s mare has a win to her name this season but has struggled to maintain consistency. Tom Bellamy takes the reins, and she could sneak into the frame if running to her potential.
West Park Boy (12/1 – Bet365)
This six-year-old returns from a lengthy absence, and while his earlier form is encouraging, fitness could be a concern. Sean Houlihan partners for the Philip Hobbs & Johnson White stable.
Vivid Pink (8/1 – Unibet)
Alan King’s five-year-old has been consistent, with a couple of placed efforts in recent starts. Tom Cannon is aboard, and she could be in the mix if everything falls into place.
Prairie Diamond (3/1 – Betvictor)
The current favorite, Prairie Diamond, scored impressively last time and looks primed for another strong showing. Daire McConville takes the ride for Martin Keighley, and a follow-up win is a strong possibility.
Ugo Bingo (12/1 – Bet365)
Anthony Charlton’s runner has been consistent without getting his head in front. Jonathan Burke rides, and this gelding could find himself in the mix with a strong effort.
Kintaro (25/1 – Unibet)
David Pipe’s four-year-old has been well beaten in recent starts. Gearoid Harney takes the reins, but significant improvement would be required to challenge here.
Of Corse I Can (33/1 – Betvictor)
Neil Mulholland’s charge has shown little in his career so far. Eddie Edge partners, but this seven-year-old looks like an outsider.
Grain Trade (12/1 – Bet365)
Billy Aprahamian’s five-year-old returned to form with a fourth-place finish last time out. Kevin Brogan rides, and this gelding could be a lively each-way contender.
Harry Gulliver (13/2 – Unibet)
After winning two starts ago, Harry Gulliver followed up with a solid third. Bryan Carver partners Alex Hales’ gelding, who looks set to be a major player again.
Footloose Man (16/1 – Betvictor)
Richard Hobson’s gelding has been consistent, finishing in the frame multiple times this season. Lilly Pinchin rides, and he could figure in the places if delivering another solid effort.
Sassified (9/2 – Bet365)
Sassified has been improving steadily and ran a good second last time out. Harry Cobden takes the reins for Philip Hobbs & Johnson White, and this six-year-old looks poised for a strong run.
Chester Tonik (66/1 – Unibet)
Alexandra Dunn’s gelding has shown little to date, and Jack Hogan’s claim may not be enough to see him make an impression.
Too Sharp (66/1 – Betvictor)
This Daisy Hitchins-trained gelding has struggled to complete his races recently. Harry Reed rides, but expectations are low.
Verdict
Prairie Diamond comes here in excellent form and should take all the beating with a repeat of his latest effort. Sassified looks a strong challenger with room for further improvement. For those seeking value, Harry Gulliver has shown enough consistency to make him a credible each-way option. Our selection is Prairie Diamond, with Sassified and Harry Gulliver completing the shortlist.

Taunton 15:15
Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association Mares’ Handicap Hurdle (Challenger Mares’ Hurdle Series Qual’)
Winner £6,073, 2nd £2,795, 3rd £1,397, 4th £699, 5th £348
3yo+, 7 Runners
Jumps,Turf , 2m 3f 1y , GOOD TO FIRM, Good in places (GoingStick: 7.9) (Watering) (Rail Movements: 12.30, 1.05, 1.40, 2.15 & 3.25 +126yds and 2.50 +192yds)
Paddy In The Caddy (11/4 – Bet365)
This consistent five-year-old comes into the race with two wins in his last two starts. Trained by Philip Hobbs & Johnson White and ridden by Sean Houlihan, he is carrying a penalty but remains a leading contender.
Shuil Ceoil (22/1 – Unibet)
Neil Mulholland’s runner has shown little in recent outings and will need to improve significantly to feature here. Richie McLernon partners the six-year-old, who looks like an outsider in this field.
Imperial Joe (16/1 – Betvictor)
Returning after a poor seasonal debut, Imperial Joe has shown glimpses of ability in the past. Jonathan Burke takes the reins for Tim Dennis, but others appear stronger contenders.
Holerday Ridge (16/1 – Bet365)
This nine-year-old has been inconsistent but has the ability to surprise if rediscovering his form. Elizabeth Gale rides for Claire Hitch, and while a win looks unlikely, a place is not out of the question.
Ventara (10/3 – Unibet)
A consistent performer, Ventara has been runner-up in two of his last three starts. Brendan Powell rides for Joe Tizzard, and this six-year-old looks poised to challenge for top honors.
Song Of Earth (14/1 – Betvictor)
Although showing some improvement in recent runs, Song Of Earth needs a sharper performance to be competitive here. Kielan Woods partners Julian Smith’s nine-year-old, who may struggle against better rivals.
Nadim (12/1 – Bet365)
A capable five-year-old who has been inconsistent this season. Daisy Hitchins’ charge will be ridden by Harry Reed, and while he has the ability, he needs to iron out jumping errors to have a chance.
Gerard Mentor (5/1 – Unibet)
Kim Bailey’s eight-year-old has been in solid form, including a win and a second in his last three starts. Tom Bellamy rides, and with another clean round of jumping, he could be in the mix.
Tribesmans Glory (10/1 – Betvictor)
This 10-year-old bounced back to form with a win last time. Ben Ffrench Davis rides for Chris Down, and if reproducing that effort, he could be a lively each-way player.
Stopherandgo (50/1 – Bet365)
Kevin Pickard’s runner has failed to make an impact in recent outings. Gearoid Harney partners this seven-year-old, who looks like a longshot.
Noah’s Light (25/1 – Unibet)
Despite a win earlier this season, Noah’s Light has been inconsistent. Lewis Stones rides for Richenda Ford, but others in this lineup have more solid claims.
My Rockstar (16/1 – Betvictor)
This eight-year-old returned to action with a respectable third last time. Ben Godfrey takes the ride for Helen Rees, and with improvement, he could be a contender for a place.
Miss Marette (16/1 – Bet365)
After several below-par efforts, Miss Marette will need a dramatic turnaround to figure here. Bryan Carver partners Chris Down’s mare, but expectations are low.
Skin Full (12/1 – Unibet)
Lightly raced for David Pipe, Skin Full has yet to show much ability. David Noonan takes the ride, and while improvement is possible, he remains a risky proposition.
Verdict
Paddy In The Caddy has strong claims, coming into the race with a string of impressive performances. Ventara looks like the biggest danger, having been consistent without winning. For value seekers, Gerard Mentor has the form to run into a place. Our top pick is Paddy In The Caddy, with Ventara and Gerard Mentor expected to challenge strongly.
