Attempted to run from the front at Huntingdon on Boxing Day, jumping let him down and faded. Drops in trip now and can do better at this game.

11/1
Likely to race prominently and coming down in the ratings but just one solid effort in four of these types of races so far make him tough to recommend.

5/4
In fine form recently, winning twice in this sphere. Left clear latest at Huntingdon on Boxing Day and up in the ratings again but clearly the one to beat.

5/2
Has had his chances over hurdles without winning. Not the most fluent jumper over timber and best to see how he handles this discipline on first attempt.

9/1
Dual winner on the Flat in his youth and fair over hurdles. Ran a decent race to be third on chase debut and in off the same mark here, could have more to offer.

7/1
Off some 18-months following tame effort on chase bow at Worcester in May 2015. Been running consistently over hurdles three starts this term.

Forecasts

Caprice D'anglais (5/4), Baraza (5/2), Routine Procedure (7/1), Brinestine (9/1), Flashman (11/1), Fingers Crossed (22/1)

Verdict

CAPRICE D'ANGLAIS would surely be three for three over fences but for a late unseat on debut. He's been all business since and was already turning the screw when chief rival fell at Huntingdon on Boxing Day. With the champion jockey booked, he has a great chance to complete his hat-trick here. Brinestine made a promising start in this sphere last time and can come forward here to be best of the rest while Fingers Crossed was not without promise on the same Boxing Day card at Huntingdon as the selection. He drops in trip now and can go well if jumping holds up. 1. Caprice D'anglais 2. Brinestine 3. Fingers Crossed
