10/11
Weak in the market and all out to score narrowly over C&D last time to give yard their first winner here in five seasons. Lightly raced and a 4lb rise seems fair enough. Better ground will help but has a big weight to carry for such a young horse.

3/1
Small fields, right-handed tracks and good racing ground are conditions that ideally suit this mare. Had no chance with a runaway winner last time and has had a rest since. Beat Halcyon Days in November before that horse went on a winning spree and landed a three runner race next time. The distant runner-up there has gone well since off higher marks.

Has been a fabulous. consistent servant to connections, winning 10 times from 2m up to 2m2½f on ground from good through to soft. Has C&D winning form and arrives in good nick. A further 2lb rise in the weights may not be enough to stop him.

Three wins over fences from 14 starts with the latest from a similar mark to today. Off the track since making mistakes and eventually pulling up at Uttoxeter last July. Ground conditions will suit but may just need the run.

Forecasts

Contre Tous (10/11), Thankyou Very Much (3/1), Chestnut Ben (4/1), Jackthejourneyman (6/1), Midnight Chorister (13/2)

Verdict

Contre Tous showed good battling qualities to get the better of a tight finish last time in a race where the front two finished clear of the third. He is only a young horse and a 4lb rise is not asking too much. Preference though is for THANKYOU VERY MUCH for James Bethell's team. The mare won two races last November which have proved to be better than they looked at the time. The conditions here are perfect for her. Chestnut Ben arrives having landed two of his last four races and with his trainer and rider in good form. The veteran will give his usual honest account but his younger rivals are marginally preferred.
  1. Thankyou Very Much
  2. Contre Tous
  3. Chestnut Ben
