Almost two years since his last win and reappears after an eight month break. Has gone well fresh and on a reasonable enough mark, but a 1-18 record makes him less appealing.
Winning Irish pointer who represents a yard whose horses have been running better lately. Arrives on the back of a career best over hurdles and a leading player with his wellbeing proven.
Prone to errors last season but still managed some good efforts, notably when the ground was testing. Off the track six months but has gone well after a break previously and stable's runners have been going well. Looks competitive off this mark.
Looked a nice type when introduced in 2014 and clearly well thought of to be kept on for a belated introduction to chasing. Lay winded after falling here three weeks ago and may need another run before revealing his potential.
Runner-up to the useful Lough Derg Leader in an Irish point-to-point but more modest form to date in three starts over hurdles for this yard. Has gone well here previously and stable 6-26 in past fortnight.
Landed some good bets when scoring at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve. That form did not work out but his current mark now reflects that. Has won a point-to-point and worth a market check on chase debut.
Placed at a modest level over hurdles and makes handicap debut having been switched to the larger obstacles. Overall form does not look god enough.
Off the track since February 2016 but stable's runners are going well and this will take little winning. One to note in the market as his current mark is undemanding and he looked the type to improve when tackling this sort of trip.
Winner of an amateur's hurdle in January but has not had the same combination of ground and trip until now. Well enough treated and has experience of these fences.
Attracted support over C&D last time when noted staying on late after hitting a flat spot on the home turn. Likely to need the run, but should score in similar company soon either here or at Exeter.
Only modest ability shown over hurdles and makes chasing debut off an unattractive mark, although the stable have been going well.
Winless after 12 starts but caught the eye on chasing debut here last month following an absence. Rider does well for the yard and he makes some appeal off a low weight with trip/ground to suit.
Forecasts
Nansaroy (4/1), Ramses De Teillee (5/1), Baron Du Plessis (6/1), Grand Introduction (8/1), Just Joelliott (8/1), Smoking Dixie (9/1), Millanisi Boy (9/1), Capote (14/1), Cailleach Annie (16/1), Glenforde (16/1), Crank Em Up (20/1), Cap Horner (100/1)
Many of these have their fitness to prove and the market ought to be informative on the chances of Crank Em Up, Glenforde, Grand Introduction and Nansaroy. Ramses De Teillee went well here over hurdles last time and carries no fitness doubts but JUST JOELLIOTT looks well handicapped on his best form. He just found 3m2f too far here last time but this distance and the underfoot conditions look spot on. Baron Du Plessis shaped as though he would improve for the experience and has 10L to find with the selection on running in that same race. A market move would make that likelihood more likely given the presence of the champion jockey in the saddle.
- Just Joelliott
- Baron Du Plessis
- Ramses De Teillee
