Spode, Mole, Twiglet & Dibbler Handicap Chase

Off time: 15:10 | Winning time: 5m 34.0s

Flaming Charmer²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: R Johnson| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 120

13/8

Very inconsistent type who is hard to catch right. Benefited from the services of the Champion Jockey last time out and claims if he has the same effect but that's no sure thing.

Form: 7P14/P1

Mr Muddle^p²⁵¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 118

10/1

Having first run for new yard here but has looked a sketchy jumper in the past. On a workable mark so claims if new trainer has ironed out the issues and he's ready to go after a break.

Form: 223U3-U

Bishops Court^p,h,t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: N D Fehily| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 115

5/2

Finally put it all together last time at this course, getting his first win on the board in 14 starts. Step up in trip shouldn't be a problem but he has to prove he can put together back-to-back performances.

Form: 4-43F41

Comeonginger^t²⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-4| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 112

8/1

Mark continuing to slide after failing to get his head in front for nearly two years. Well-handicapped because of that but there were very few signs of encouragement of a return to form last time out.

Form: 4-33254

Drumviredy²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Deutsch⁽³⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 110

7/2

Ran okay around here on only other start at the course and is a largely consistent type. However, looks in the handicapper's grip for the time being.

Form: 244156

Non-Runners

Highbury High³¹

Weight: 10-10| Age: 10

T: N P Mulholland J: Mr James King

Forecasts

Flaming Charmer (13/8), Bishops Court (5/2), Drumviredy (7/2), Highbury High (6/1), Comeonginger (8/1), Mr Muddle (10/1)

It's entirely possible MR MUDDLE could find some improvement for the switch of yard and he's taken to get his head in front. Bishops Court and Flaming Charmer are the two last time out winners in the line up with the former just shading the vote for the forecast. 1. Mr Muddle 2. Bishops Court 3. Flaming Charmer
