Asangy¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 12-4| J: Mr Peter Bryan⁽⁵⁾| T: Richard Edwards| OR: 101

4/1

Game winner at Leicester last month when getting up close home to win by a nose on Good to firm. Different conditions today and has to carry a penalty in a stronger race.

Form: 213P21

Bletchley Castle^t¹¹

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Zac Baker| T: Miss H Brookshaw| OR: 105| D

17/2

Distant second at Taunton last time and although the step up from the minimum distance is in favour, this requires more.

Form: 2/P72-32

Brave Jaq^h,t¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Tommie M O'Brien| T: R Potter| OR: 108| BF

7/1

Front runner who was well behind Asangy at Leicester and although claims on his second here last June, that was at a shorter trip and 2m4f may stretch him again.

Form: PP-6423

Carumba^b1⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Solomon Wood⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss K Frisby

80/1

One Point-to-point victory in 32 attempts throughout his career. Well beaten again last week and hard to make a case for.

Form: PF-4558

Cyrius Moriviere^t³⁰³

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P York| T: S Barry| OR: 125| D

3/1

Fair form in Point-to-points in his his younger days. Was rather headstrong under rules and this trip is the top end of his stamina these days but from a class angle makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 6/4328-9

Dido¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D Peters⁽⁵⁾| T: D Peters| OR: 101

6/1

Creditable fifth when last seen at Cheltenham in May in much stronger contest. That form would put him in the mix if fitness not an issue.

Form: P1-5322

Downbythestrand²⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr S Lee⁽⁷⁾| T: F Hutsby

66/1

Has won a Point-to-point but last of four on recent rules debut at Leicester and plenty more needed to figure.

Form: 24P12/4

Hurricane Vic¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Philip Armson⁽⁷⁾| T: S J Robinson| OR: 88

20/1

Goes well for this rider and runner up in Point-to-point last month. Generally a safe jumper and holds place claims.

Form: 2/441-52

Torran Na Dtonn²²

Age: 11| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Richard Collinson⁽⁷⁾| T: A Pennock

50/1

Multiple Point-to-point winner in the past but doesn't seem the force of old though fir from a third place last month.

Form: 211/2F3

Rule 4

Rule 4 applies to all bets - deduction 20p in the pound

Forecasts

Dolphin Square (5/4), Cyrius Moriviere (3/1), Asangy (4/1), Dido (6/1), Brave Jaq (7/1), Bletchley Castle (17/2), Golden Tobouggan (10/1), Hurricane Vic (20/1), Torran Na Dtonn (50/1), Downbythestrand (66/1), Western Dream (66/1), Carumba (80/1)

A real head scratcher of a contest and a tentative vote goes to CYRIUS MORIVIERE despite the concerns regarding stamina. Asangy and Brave Jaq could be the ones to take advantage if that is the case.
