Off time: 15:50 | Winning time: 3m 55.10s

Comrade Conrad^b,t⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 116

4/1

Warwick winner over 2m5f though Market Rasen second last time suggests this is now his trip. Blinkers, tried before, go on again and though he can take plenty of driving, there could be more to come at this distance.

Form: 8701-32

Supreme Steel^b¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 115| BF| CD

11/4

Chased too strong a pace (race set up for the closers) at Cartmel last month following an 18 months lay-off but should be fitter now and did take this race in 2017 off a 6lb lower mark.

Form: 21256/6

Victarion^b1⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 113| BF

7/2

Similar level of form with a win and two placed efforts on last three runs. Blinkers now tried and if they illicit any improvement he has to be a major player.

Form: 5F81-23

His Dream^b³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.⁽³⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 111| BF

8/1

Warwick and Stratford wins over 3m2f since turn of the year but just as liable to throw in a stinker and becoming very hard to predict despite his ability.

Form: 39FP-1P

King Cool^b³⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 109

6/1

Kempton win in January and solid efforts when runner up twice lately off this sort of mark. Should run his race but vulnerable to any improver.

Form: 817P-22

Shimla Dawn³

Age: 11| Weight: 11-1| J: Miss E Todd⁽⁵⁾| T: M Walford| OR: 108

12/1

Backed for a Chase on Sunday though got no further than the first. Not easy to know what to predict now as this just his second run over the smaller obstacles since 2014.

Form: 1P-446U

Oakley Hall¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Adrian Heskin| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 107

8/1

Proving disappointing and looks an increasingly hard ride these days. Handicapper reacting but doesn't look one to trust and passed over here.

Form: 2PP-065

Forecasts

Supreme Steel (11/4), Victarion (7/2), Comrade Conrad (4/1), King Cool (6/1), His Dream (8/1), Oakley Hall (8/1), Lord Condi (11/1), Shimla Dawn (12/1), Royal Irish Hussar (12/1)

SUPREME STEEL should come on for his recent Cartmel run where he shaped better than final placing indicates and can repeat his 2017 victory in this. The blinkers won't need to eke out much improvement for Victarion to prove a big threat and Comrade Conrad completes the short list.
