Well beaten on hurdling handicap debut last time around here but could be more to come in this sphere and may have been in need of the run. No surprise to see him go well.

Unplaced on all six hurdles outings to date and sole Flat win came all the way back in 2014. Doesn't look all that straightforward and he's been particularly out of form more recently.

13/2
Six-time winner but only one of those has come since 2014, a selling handicap hurdle over C&D in December and he struggled back up in class last time. Needs to have improved for the switch of yard.

In search of a four-time here and clearly thriving since joining this yard. Quite possible the 5lb rise won't be enough to stop him going in again.

Useful on the Flat and went off short prices when switched back to this sphere last year but failed to land a blow. Of some interest off the back of a break having won when fresh previously.

40/1
Not won since 2015 and finished tailed off on return from over a year off the track at Bangor last time. Entitled to have needed that but probably still best watched for now.

12/1
Well beaten last time at Southwell when tailed off but went close to gaining his second win at Huntingdon the time before. Strike-rate is poor but every chance he could go close if first-time blinkers bring out a little bit of improvement.

13/2
All of his best form is with a little cut in the ground so no doubt wants some rain to arrive but he's been performing consistently well of late and finished a fine third of 16 last time at Warwick and placed on all three starts this campaign. Up another 1lb but no surprise to see him go well.

Marmont13
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-3| J: Jack Sherwood| T: Miss J S Davis| OR:  99
18/1
Not beaten far on his second hurdle start but struggled badly since and tailed off on his last three efforts. Jumping errors have started to appear and looks opposable in this line up.

12/1
Not won since 2015 but back below his last winning mark now and was running consistently well towards the end of last year. May have needed his comeback run last time so not ruled out if he comes on for that effort.

Age: 7|  Weight: 10-2| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Mark Gillard| OR:  81| D
10/1
Won five times over hurdles over a wide range of trips and ground. Not the easiest to predict when he's going to run a big one and tailed off last time but he does get the services of one of the more experienced jockeys in this contest and he's scored from a higher mark before.

Still a maiden under rules and would be better suited to a greater test of stamina than this.

Forecasts

Jack Bear (7/2), Lake Chapala (9/2), Orion's Might (5/1), Swaledale Lad (13/2), Kastani Beach (13/2), Arty Campbell (15/2), Frozen Over (8/1), Karl Marx (10/1), The Kvilleken (12/1), Chantecler (12/1), Weld Arab (12/1), Intifadah (12/1), Marmont (18/1), Marju's Quest (20/1), Buz Barton (25/1), Paladin (25/1), Another Journey (40/1)

Verdict

LAKE CHAPALA looks capable of recording his fourth win on the trot after some lenient looking handicapping from the assessor. Orion's Might got off the mark at the 51st attempt last time but he's better than that record suggests and he's another who has been given a chance off his revised mark. Arty Campbell has been disappointing over hurdles to date but he's a useful Flat performer on his day who should be able to make his presence felt at this level.
  1. Lake Chapala
