Leo Luna^t,v⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 12-4| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 122| CD

3/1

Lazy individual who usually has to be driven along from an early stage. Scored here in January but flattered at Fontwell last week and he may need more testing ground nowadays.

Form: 2-341U2

Holbrook Park^t³⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-4| J: Harry Teal⁽⁷⁾| T: N B King| OR: 122| C

7/1

Odds-on when wide-margin winner of an ordinary 2m3f novice chase here in February, but had made the useful Eamon An Cnoic pull out all the stops prior to that. Stays this far but needs to prove his wellbeing having run as though something was amiss.

Form: PPP214

Indian Castle⁵³

Age: 10| Weight: 12-4| J: T J O'Brien| T: Ian Williams| OR: 122

9/4

3-4 in this class and he was a close sixth in the 2016 Kim Muir. This represents his easiest task for some while and the drying ground is in his favour. Stable have been going well and no surprise if he bounced back.

Form: 6/2-267P

No Buts⁷⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 12-3| J: Daniel Hiskett⁽⁵⁾| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 121| C

10/1

Versatile sort who has won from 2m4f-3m4f. Has faced some stiff tasks recently but back down to his last winning mark and now dropped in class. Has gone well here in the past and he has to go on the shortlist.

Form: 724757

Cap Horner²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: J McGrath| T: J W Mullins| OR: 116

4/1

Winner over fences at Lingfield and Taunton this season. Up another 6lb but only young and he has proven his current wellbeing.

Form: 1P4421

Invicta Lake^p¹⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 11-5| J: Jack Sherwood⁽³⁾| T: Miss S Smith| OR: 109| CD

7/1

Winner of five hurdles but yet to open his account over fences and pulled up last time. Others appear to have brighter prospects.

Form: 53FU2P

Frank N Fair¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: Page Fuller⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Z C Davison| OR: 104| CD

14/1

Has had a cracking season over fences but he has been poor on his last two starts and there may be better handicapped rivals opposing him here.

Form: F11347

Forecasts

Indian Castle (9/4), Leo Luna (3/1), Cap Horner (4/1), Achille (6/1), Holbrook Park (7/1), Invicta Lake (7/1), No Buts (10/1), Frank N Fair (14/1)

Such is the form of the Venetia Williams team it is hard to get away from ACHILLE who was unlucky to bump into a horse at the top of his game last time and now meets opponents with something to prove. Indian Castle was much better than this at his prime and with his yard going well also he may bounce back from a poor effort, whilst No Buts is capable at this level and should make his presence felt.
