1
Horse silk
Banny's Lad137
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-2| J: Jake Greenall| T: M & D Easterby
100/1
He is highly tried on his second run over fences. He may want the ground faster than this and his form over hurdles suggests he has a lot to find.
2
Horse silk
Delusionofgrandeur9
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Parkinson & S Smith
17/2
His form over hurdles gives him a chance. He needs to improve on his first two starts over the larger obstacles. His stable companion makes more appeal.
3
Horse silk
Gully's Edgep,t17
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: J M Jefferson| OR:  130
15/2
His stable are in good form but he was rated behind these over hurdles. He has been well beaten in two starts over fences and has a bit to find on form.
4
Horse silk
Needless Shouting13
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-2| J: Daragh Bourke(5)| T: Miss J E Foster| OR:  104
250/1
He has shown nothing so far to suggest he is up to competing at this level. Easy to oppose.
5
Horse silk
One Track Mind18
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: G Sheehan| T: W Greatrex
15/8
He was the clear pick of these over hurdles. He showed a lack of confidence on his chasing debut at Newbury last month and at the likely odds he is worth opposing, particularly as his stable are going through a quite spell at the moment.
6
Horse silk
Vintage Clouds25
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: Danny Cook| T: J Parkinson & S Smith
13/8
He showed a fair level of form over hurdles. He has made an encouraging start to his chasing career. The trip today will be more to his liking. His stable are in good form and do well with their chasers here.
7
Horse silk
Work In Progress13
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR:  135
7/1
He was flattered by his proximity to the winner here last time. His jumping that day was far from fluent. He is unproven over today's trip. He represents a top yard and has to be respected but others are preferred.

Forecasts

Vintage Clouds (13/8), One Track Mind (15/8), Work In Progress (7/1), Gully's Edge (15/2), Delusionofgrandeur (17/2), Banny's Lad (100/1), Needless Shouting (250/1)

Verdict

VINTAGE CLOUDS has always looked a chaser in the making. He should improve today for the step up in trip having done nothing wrong in his first two start over fences against useful opposition. Work in Progress is sure to have been well schooled following his debut over fences here last month. He rates a danger as does One Track Mind. The latter made an early mistake at Newbury last time and was never travelling well thereafter. He could leave that run well behind here but at the likely arts odds he is a risky proposition. 1. Vintage Clouds 2. Work In Progress 3. One Track Mind
