1
Horse silk
Belami Des Pictons42
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-6| J: L Treadwell| T: Miss V Williams| OR:  138
7/4
French import who is 3/4 for this yard so far, and looks progressive. Has to combat higher weight than most here (due to previous successes) but looks to have the potential to do so.
2
Horse silk
Kaki De La Pree28
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-6| J: Benjamin Poste(3)| T: T Symonds| OR:  137
7/2
Never out of the first three on all chase starts except when falling in the Betfred Classic here last time. Looks to still be improving despite his old age for a novice. Trip/ground fine.
3
Horse silk
Arctic Gold10
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: William Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR:  138
7/2
Unseated rider on chasing debut at Hereford last time but looked to be going well at the time. Decent performer at this level over hurdles and the more the rain that comes, the better.
4
Horse silk
Dig Deeper10
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-0| J: T Scudamore| T: Mrs Caroline Bailey| OR:  135
11/2
Had looked promising over fences before pulling up at Hereford last time. Possible he didn't see out the 3m1f on heavy, and could be worth chancing again in a race which is likely to be less of a test.
5
Horse silk
Granit Man10
Age: 11|  Weight: 11-0| J: Richard Hodson(7)| T: James Moon
200/1
Import from Jersey who has shown little all stats in Britain so far. Will need to improve plenty to be competitive here, and that seems unlikely.
6
Horse silk
Kris Spin38
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-0| J: Paul Townend| T: Kerry Lee| OR:  129
6/1
Has clearly had his problems with two absences from the track of more than a year. Has a chance on his best form but will need to come on for his first run back at Hereford recently. First preference is 16.10 Newbury.

Forecasts

Belami Des Pictons (7/4), Arctic Gold (7/2), Kaki De La Pree (7/2), Dig Deeper (11/2), Kris Spin (6/1), Granit Man (200/1)

Verdict

KAKI DE LA PREE had looked an absolute picture of consistency on every start over fences until falling at Warwick last time. He looks an improving type despite his old age, and if showing no ill effects from that fall should prove hard to beat here. Belami Des Pictons has obvious claims given his impressive strike rate for Venetia Williams so far, while Dig Deeper should also run his race if coming back from a disappointing performance at Hereford last time out. 1. Kaki De La Pree 2. Belami Des Pictons 3. Dig Deeper
