Uk Betting Forum Common Race of Day

A race where lots of inconsistent form exist so a difficult one to unfathom.
HIGH DANCER sets the standard with a close 2nd behind CREBILLY and followed up by beating PERSEUS WAY who very much boosted the form but then was only 6th lto catt 22f off todays mark of 120.
Might be good enough but he does have to give 13lbs to KOOL RAOUL who showed a different level of form in winning with plenty in hand last time out, up 6lbs for that looks lenient but the fear that the steady pace helped, hard to know but i'll go for KOOL RAOUL but won't be betting.

CLASS NOTE: Class 4 hurdles stop at 0-120 here; Class 3 handicaps start above. A 7lb penalty takes High Dancer to 127 = Class 3, where he was beaten as favourite off 120 at Cartmel. Everyone else stays Class 4 after a win.
Kool Raoul (2/1 fav): won this race's course and trip on 20 Oct, made all, comfortably, off 101; up 6lb. Stable in form (6 from 38 in 14 days, 4 from 11 at Hexham in 90 days). Proven on the climb. Against: Wadge replaces Fox, only one handicap win, 6lb rise. Strongest current form in the race —
Punxsutawney Phil: 9yo on the OR-management lens — 115 last spring, back down to 107, the exact mark he won off over this trip at Newcastle (made all, 16L), now carrying 10lb less; Hamilton won on him twice. Against: PU and a fading 7th in his two hurdles this autumn after a 527-day absence.
Snowrocco: won twice at 3m in Dec-Jan off 93 and 104 with Mania; raised to 113, beaten three times, now 110 and 6lb below her winning weight. Hexham's climb rewards stamina, which suits a 3m winner dropping to 2m4½f. Against: 220 days off.
High Dancer: proven up the Hexham hill (won 2m½f in June off 116); stable and jockey in form. Against: top weight 12-0, 4lb above his win mark, beaten as favourite off 120 last time, and a win puts him in Class 3.
Sunset Hill: led and was caught twice at Hexham in May (8L clear after 3 out at one point) — handles the track, does not see it out. 7yo, no handicap win in 8. Bobby Socks: 2nd here last time off 95, but 9yo, trainer 66 days without a winner. Titanium Ring: 4th beaten 1.4L off this same mark at Bangor, 202 days off. Colonel Jack and Hopeless Dancer: maidens on handicap debut, long absences.
Kool Raoul win - Punxsutawney Phil, with Snowrocco to W & 4 places
