Play The Ace^p,t⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: James Bowen⁽³⁾| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 122| D

9/2

Justified favouritism when winning over an extended 2m6f at Stratford (good) earlier this month. Races off a 4lb higher mark today but one to note with a leading conditional again booked for the ride.

Achille⁷²²

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Charlie Deutsch⁽³⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 122

3/1

Dual winner in France and ran well when finishing fifth on his debut for this yard at Ascot (3m, soft) in November 2015. Unraced since and worth a check in the market on his return from a long absence.

Form: 1F3245/

Dance Floor King²²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: Sean Houlihan⁽⁵⁾| T: Nick Mitchell| OR: 118| CD

Five time winner including over C&D on good ground in April. Well held here on his seasonal debut last time out and likely to put in a better performance today.

Form: 21221-8

Cody Wyoming^p,t²¹

Age: 11| Weight: 11-9| J: Jonathan Moore| T: C J Mann| OR: 117| D

10/1

Put a number of disappointing efforts last season behind him when finishing 12L second at Ffos Las (2m5f, soft) on his seasonal debut last month. Races off the same mark today and interesting if repeating that effort.

Form: 140PP-2

Age: 10| Weight: 11-7| J: Jack Savage⁽⁸⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 115| D

22/1

Out of form since finishing runner-up over 2m4f at Leicester (good-to-firm) in December. Races off a mark 8lb lower than when winning on firm ground at the same course earlier that month.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr Robert Hawker⁽³⁾| T: N J Hawke| OR: 111

14/1

Successful on heavy ground in a 2m handicap hurdle at Hexham in September. Well held at Worcester (good) returning to fences last time out and more needed today.

Form: PF6/1P5

Turban¹⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 11-1| J: Jack Sherwood| T: P Henderson| OR: 109

25/1

Useful horse in Ireland a couple of years ago but well held in three starts since winning a three runner contest over an extended 3m1f at Plumpton (good) in March. Races off a mark 3lb lower than for that success.

Form: P713-P8

Triple Chief^b³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: C Gethings| T: J D Frost| OR: 106

8/1

Has been in good form this year including when finishing 14L second at Exeter (2m3f, good) on seasonal and stable debut a month ago. Races off the same mark today and receiving weight from all of his rivals.

Form: 4312-22

Forecasts

Achille (3/1), Play The Ace (9/2), Howlongisafoot (5/1), Dance Floor King (6/1), Master Burbidge (15/2), Triple Chief (8/1), Cody Wyoming (10/1), Take A Break (14/1), Foundation Man (22/1), Turban (25/1)

TRIPLE CHIEF made a promising first start for this yard when finishing runner-up at Exeter last month and he can register his third career success by taking this competitive handicap chase. Top weight Play The Ace was a winner at Stratford last time and he is taken to finish runner-up with the ground and trip both likely to suit while Achille is another of interest on his first appearance in nearly two years.
