(R4) 15:30 CHELTENHAM, 2m 7f 213y Paddy Power Stayers' Hurdle (Grade 1) (Class 1) (4YO plus) No Silk Form Horse Details Age/Wt Jockey/Trainer OR 1 1201-32 ASK DILLON (IRE) 40 D 7 11 - 10p1 P J Brennan 141 b g Ask - Mum's Miracle F O'Brien

Jockey Colours: Mauve and pink (quartered), white sleeves, mauve stars Notes: Timeform says: Dual winner last season and a couple of creditable runs despite some sloppy jumping in 3m handicaps this season. Looks an out-and-out stayer but stiff task here in first-time cheekpieces. (Forecast 201.00) 2 F6-2124 BACARDYS (FR) 75 D BF 9 11 - 10 Mr P W Mullins 157 b g Coastal Path - Oasice W P Mullins

Jockey Colours: Black, yellow stars, yellow sleeves, black stars, yellow cap, black stars Notes: Timeform says: Ended losing run in Navan Grade 2 in November and having his third crack at this race (fell when likely to have been placed in 2018 and not seen to best effect last year). Each-way prospects. (Forecast 26.00) 3 111-6P2 CITY ISLAND (IRE) 60 C 7 11 - 10t M P Walsh 153 b g Court Cave - Victorine M Brassil

Jockey Colours: Dark blue, yellow stripe, red cap Notes: Timeform says: Won a strong renewal of the Baring Bingham last year and no surprise if Cheltenham has been his main aim again all along, shaping up well over fences last time. 3m sure to suit and has had a wind op. (Forecast 15.00) 4 2/2135-2 DONNA'S DIAMOND (IRE) 26 D 11 11 - 10 Thomas Dowson 145 gr g Cloudings - Inish Bofin C Grant

Jockey Colours: Royal blue, light blue cross of lorraine, halved sleeves and diamonds on cap Notes: Timeform says: Won the Rendlesham at Haydock in 2018 and made a pleasing return behind Emitom in that race after a year off 4 weeks ago. Form is way short of what will be required to land this, though. (Forecast 301.00) 5 1112-61 EMITOM (IRE) 26 D 6 11 - 10 G Sheehan 153 b g Gold Well - Avenging Angel W Greatrex

Jockey Colours: Maroon, orange diamond, diamonds on sleeves, maroon cap, orange diamond Notes: Timeform says: Fine last season (second to Champ in the Sefton) and firmly back on track when impressively landing a gamble in Haydock Grade 2 back over 3m last month. More to come from him. (Forecast 11.00) 6 381/7-27 L'AMI SERGE (IRE) 47 10 11 - 10 D A Jacob 155 b g King's Theatre - La Zingarella N J Henderson

Jockey Colours: Emerald green, dark green sleeves, dark green and emerald green quartered cap Notes: Timeform says: Quirky sort but has some decent Festival form and won the in 2018. Fair return after 19 months off in the Long Walk but turned it in again in the Cleeve. Up against it. (Forecast 41.00) 7 3-239F3 LISNAGAR OSCAR (IRE) 47 D 7 11 - 10 Adam Wedge 146 b g Oscar - Asta Belle Miss R Curtis

Jockey Colours: Dark green, yellow sleeves, black diamonds, quartered cap Notes: Timeform says: Grade 2 staying novice hurdle winner and fifth in the Albert Bartlett. Took a while to get back to top form but ran well under a good positive ride behind in the Cleeve. (Forecast 67.00) 8 1111-11 PAISLEY PARK (IRE) 47 CD 8 11 - 10 Aidan Coleman 169 b g Oscar - Presenting Shares Miss E C Lavelle

Jockey Colours: Royal blue, pink disc, maroon sleeves, royal blue stars, dark blue cap, pink spots Notes: Timeform says: Reigning champion and unbeaten under Aidan Coleman, doing well to land a messy renewal of the over C&D from Summerville Boy last time. Will take all the beating. (Forecast 1.83) 9 12/6322 25 CD 9 11 - 10 P Townend 156 b g Mount Nelson - Serrenia W P Mullins

Jockey Colours: Royal blue, white seams, white and royal blue hooped cap Notes: Timeform says: 2-2 over C&D having landed the 2017 Albert Bartlett and this race in 2018 and could be building up to a massive effort again judged on his second in the Boyne Hurdle last month. Dismiss at your peril. (Forecast 21.00) 10 11-1224 RONALD PUMP 46 D 7 11 - 10ht B J Cooper 156 ch g Schiaparelli - Fruit Yoghurt Matthew J Smith

Jockey Colours: Green, royal blue inverted triangle, royal blue and green chevrons on sleeves, white Notes: and green hooped cap Timeform says: Huge improver in Ireland and his 2 best runs this term have seen him get off the mark over fences on return before a mighty second in 3m Leopardstown handicap hurdle over Christmas. Could outrun odds. (Forecast 34.00) 11 4-61F12 SUMMERVILLE BOY (IRE) 47 C 8 11 - 10 J J Burke 156 b g Sandmason - Suny House T R George

Jockey Colours: Light blue, pink chevrons, light blue sleeves, light blue cap, pink star Notes: Timeform says: Won the 2018 Supreme and firmly back on track this season returned to hurdling here, successful in the Relkeel before chasing home Paisley Park in the Cleeve. Solid place claims. (Forecast 13.00) 12 111142 THE JAM MAN (IRE) 39 D 7 11 - 10 S W Flanagan 150 br g Papal Bull - Kathy Jet Ronan McNally

Jockey Colours: Royal blue, orange stars on sleeves and cap Notes: Timeform says: Big improver since his stamina has been drawn out, winning 4 times last year, and running mighty races in defeat in 3m handicap hurdles the last twice. Playing for minor honours at best here, though. (Forecast 151.00) 13 221-134 TOBEFAIR 47 CD 10 11 - 10 Thomas Bellamy 153 b g Central Park - Nan Mrs D A Hamer

Jockey Colours: Black, orange diamond, sleeves and cap Notes: Timeform says: Ran a screamer in the Pertemps last season before winning 3m handicaps here on his next 2 starts. No match for Paisley Park and Co in the Cleeve last time, though, and vulnerable once more. (Forecast 101.00) 14 21U3P4 WEST APPROACH 26 C 10 11 - H Cobden 149 b g Westerner - Ardstown 10p1 C L Tizzard

Jockey Colours: Orange, black triple diamond, chevrons on sleeves Notes: Timeform says: Smart performer when in the mood but took an age to knuckle down back over hurdles behind Emitom at Haydock last time and his Festival form is poor. Headgear back on. (Forecast 101.00) 15 3-5231P APPLE'S JADE (FR) 49 C D 8 11 - 3b1t R Johnson 157 b m Saddler Maker - Apple's For Ever G Elliott

Jockey Colours: Maroon, white star, armlets and star on cap Notes: Timeform says: Won the Mares' Hurdle in 2017 and made all for an 11th Grade 1 at Leopardstown over Christmas. That's very much a standout effort this season, though, and she bombed out last time. Blinkers tried. (Forecast 21.00)

© 2020 At The Races. All Rights Reserved. TIMEFORM VIEW: There is a good chance PAISLEY PARK may not have peaked yet, even after 7 straight wins, and the staying champion can successfully defend his crown. Emitom and the 2018 Supreme winner Summerville Boy can complete a 1-2-3 for British-trained horses. City Island looks the pick of the Irish challengers.

Timeform 1-2-3: 1: PAISLEY PARK (8) 2: EMITOM (5) 3: SUMMERVILLE BOY (11)
