5/2
The subject of a gamble back over fences last time but found the drop down to 2m against when staying on too late for third. Happier now back up to this trip and looks sure to figure.

9/2
Capable of better after four starts over fences and now handicapping off a 7lb lower mark than sole hurdles handicap run so could be leniently treated.

9/2
Very interesting debutante for Gordon Elliott having disappointed for Philip Hobbs last season but that yard was out of sorts most of the campaign and if current trainer has got him back to the form of old he is attractively weighted.

Age: 10|  Weight: 11-8| J: A W Short(3)| T: L Lennon| OR:  114| D
12/1
Has struggled of late over various trips and probably needs more respite from the handicapper before he becomes of interest again

8/1
Shaped well enough on chasing debut and subsequently ran better than final position would suggest back over hurdles. Capable of improvement and worth noting in market.

12/1
Dual winner over fences last year and though not quite so good recently when returned to larger obstacles. Wouldn't want the ground to soften.

7/2
Galway win in October and ran well for a long way until falling three out in a Grade 2 last time when a 100/1 shot. Hard to know how he'd have fared that day but interesting off his unchanged mark back in this company.

25/1
One of his better efforts when runner up at Sligo and can be forgiven latest run having finished lame but career record of just one win in 20 attempts over fences is off-putting.

Forecasts

Bitsandpieces (5/2), Well Tom (7/2), Uaintseenothingyet (9/2), Allee Bleue (9/2), Angus Milan (5/1), Danse Away (8/1), I'm An Izz Wizz (12/1), The Trigger (12/1), Allied Victory (25/1)

Verdict

The interesting one has to be ALLEE BLEUE who could be very well treated on debut for his new yard and looks worth chancing that he is back on form here. Bitsandpieces looks the obvious one to take advantage otherwise as the return to this trip is what he wants. Uintseenothingyet who would be interesting if the market speaks in his favour looks best of the rest.
  1. Allee Bleue
  2. Bitsandpieces
  3. Uaintseenothingyet
