2/1

Followed up a Uttoxeter win (heavy) in December with a 2m3½f success here in January, after a 6lb rise. Further 7lb accounted for him at Leicester last time, but no reason why he can't be similarly competitive today.

Form: 6-33113

Bandon Roc^v²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 113

7/4

Returns to the scene of where he was runner-up to Just Georgie last month. Has a 4lb pull for just under 2L that day, although the winner didn't do lots in front. Even so, this gelding is open to improvement and has to be considered.

Form: 11-P7P2

Square Viviani¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Finian O'Toole⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 113

12/1

Sent off at just 3-1 on stable/British debut at Catterick last time, finishing a 13½L last of four. Will need to jump better than that. Eased 4lb going into this and both trip/ground will suit, so could be capable of better today.

Form: P-3FP44

Allmyown¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: A Nicol| T: P A Kirby| OR: 96

5/2

Irish point-to-point winner who has yet to sparkle under rules, making the frame once each over hurdles/fences. Stays 3m1f and acts on soft, though still has it to prove on heavy. Looks up against it despite latest 2lb drop.

Forecasts

Bandon Roc (7/4), Newberry New (2/1), Allmyown (5/2), Doktor Glaz (11/4), Just Georgie (11/4), Special Wells (8/1), Top Cat Henry (10/1), Square Viviani (12/1)

Just Georgie and Bandon Roc reoppose here and there should again be little to choose between them, although both look vulnerable to something less exposed. That may come in the form of SQUARE VIVIANI, who went off at short enough odds on debut and may be capable of better than he showed that day over this longer trip and on heavy ground. Neither Special Wells nor Newberry New can be ruled out, while the same applies to Doktor Glaz if he handles the forecast conditions.
