11/4
Runner-up on handicap bow on soft ground at Wincanton just under a month ago. The yard has a decent strike rate (40%) here in recent years and he should go well again in this.

7/1
Been running well enough in novice company this season, under pressure from a relatively early stage last time out though and the handicapper doesn't appear to have taken any chances with his initial mark.

4/1
Finished behind today's rival Lillington when sporting first time blinkers and sent off favourite last time out at Wincanton. No obvious reason for him to reverse that form and cheekpieces (tried unsuccessfully on the Flat) replace the blinkers for today's outing.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-3| J: James Best| T: R Stephens| OR:  106
14/1
Winning handicapper on the Flat in early 2016, well held in three outings over hurdles at big prices so far. Worth a check in the market.

Rebel Beat39
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-1| J: T J O'Brien| T: David Dennis| OR:  104
12/1
Well beaten in all starts since showing promise in an Aintree bumper in 2015. Improvement needed now sent handicapping.

Way Of The World10
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: Jordan Williams(7)| T: Sheila Lewis| OR:  103
4/1
Victorious by a neck on heavy ground here under today's 5lb claiming rider last time out with the front two clear. Steps back in trip and up in grade here but looks likely to go well again.

Lucky Galh124
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-13| J: J McGrath| T: M Hill| OR:  102
33/1
Signs of promise in early outings over hurdles but pulled up on handicap debut at Wincanton in December and will need to put that run behind her here.
8

Chief Brody21
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-11| J: David England| T: G Harris| OR:  100
12/1
Decent second on penultimate outing at Taunton but beaten when falling over the same CD next time out. Remains a maiden after 13 career outings but chances if putting his latest run behind him.
9

Blackfire34
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-9| J: Benjamin Poste(3)| T: T Symonds| OR:  98
25/1
Placed off higher marks in the spring but well beaten in two starts since returning for a new yard this season and a bit to prove at present.

Horse silk
Jinsha Lakep1,t70
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-8| J: Conor Ring(3)| T: Evan Williams| OR:  97
20/1
A winner off a 3lb lower mark at Towcester back in May. Well held on all subsequent outings including when pulled up here in november and expected going likely to prove too soft for him.

Forecasts

Lillington (11/4), Way Of The World (4/1), Miracle Cure (4/1), Yorgonnahearmeroar (7/1), Rebel Beat (12/1), Chief Brody (12/1), Ruler Of The Nile (14/1), Jinsha Lake (20/1), Blackfire (25/1), Lucky Gal (33/1)

Verdict

WAY OF THE WORLD looks to be one of the likely pacesetters in this competitive looking contest and he is taken to succeed here at the expense of Lillington and Miracle Cure. The selection stays further than this and was successful on the likely going here last time out and can add to his small yards winners tally for this season by registering another course win. 1. Way Of The World 2. Lillington 3. Miracle Cure
