The Two Amigos²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Matt Griffiths| T: Nicky Martin| OR: 121| D

7/4

Made an impressive return to Rules racing when winning by 52L on heavy ground at Newton Abbot (3m2f) last time out. One for the shortlist despite a 12lb rise in the weights.

Form: 1111-R1

Mon Palois¹⁷⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 121| D

8/1

Good effort in finishing 6¾L fifth in a 3m handicap hurdle at Southwell (good) in May when returning from a break. Absent since and worth a check in the market on chase debut.

Form: 14450-5

Elkstone^h¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: S Bowen| T: Mrs Caroline Bailey| OR: 120| C| D

12/1

Winner of two of his last three starts including over 3m at Kempton (good) last time out. Raised 8lb for that victory and is of interest once more.

Form: P12161

Marten²⁷²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: D A Jacob| T: B Pauling| OR: 120WS

15/2

Bumper and hurdles winner in 2017 but pulled up at Kempton (2m5f, soft) in a novice hurdle in February. Had wind surgery since and is making his chase and handicap debut.

Form: 510/16P-

Forgot To Ask¹⁷²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr N George⁽⁷⁾| T: T R George| OR: 120| C

12/1

Maiden hurdle winner over an extended 2m4f on good ground here in May. Absent since and he is worth a check in the market on handicap and chase debut.

Form: 9544-31

Allez Jacques⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Patrick Cowley⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 115

33/1

11 race maiden has failed to complete on his two starts over fences. Pulled up at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good-to-soft) in September and others make more appeal.

Form: 373-4FP

Indirocco¹⁸⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 115WS

6/1

Placed in a couple of maiden hurdles but struggled on handicap debut at Warwick (2m5f, good) in May. Likely capable of better following wind surgery and he is worth a check in the market on chase debut.

Form: 3/64-7

River Of Intrigue¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: C Brace⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 109

28/1

Victorious over an extended 3m1f at Plumpton (good-to-firm) last time out. Raised 3lb for that victory and this looks much more competitive.

Form: 356-331

Some Chaos⁹^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Benjamin Poste| T: M Scudamore| OR: 102| D

7/2

Making his handicap, chase and stable debut when winning by 7L over an extended 2m4f at Bangor (good) recently. Made all that day and he is one for the shortlist off a 15lb higher mark.

Form: 37794/1

Forecasts

The Two Amigos (7/4), Some Chaos (7/2), Indirocco (6/1), Marten (15/2), Mon Palois (8/1), Elkstone (12/1), Forgot To Ask (12/1), River Of Intrigue (28/1), Allez Jacques (33/1)

SOME CHAOS receives weight from all bar one of his rivals and having made all at Bangor last time out he is taken to follow-up in this competitive looking handicap chase. The selection can get the better of fellow last time out scorer The Two Amigos who's best form has come on ground much softer than is forecast here. Third place can go the way of Elkstone who has been in good form in recent starts.
