8/1

Dual point-to-point winner most recently at Umberleigh (3m, firm) in June last year. Faller when weakening over 2m2f on good ground here when debuting for this stable last month. Interesting to see how he performs.

Form: 4-1251U

1/20

Won three of his last four starts including over 2m2f on good ground here last time out. Remains open to improvement and likely to run well once more despite a 6lb rise in the weights.

Waikiki Waves (1/20), Tikkinthebox (3/1), Red Devil Star (4/1), Soulsaver (6/1), Rendezvous Peak (8/1)

WAIKIKI WAVES has been in good form for this yard in recent months and he can register a second course victory by taking this competitive small field handicap chase. Top weight Tikkinthebox looks capable of chasing the selection home following a promising effort last time out while third place can go to Red Devil Star who wasn't beaten far at Chepstow last time.
