Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: D A Jacob| T: W Greatrex| OR: 132| D

11/1

Genuine sort. Possibly needed the run on return to action at Lingfield earlier this month, disappointing over a similar trip. More than likely to give a good account of himself in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 2222P-4

Jammy George^p⁴³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: H Whittington| OR: 131

11/4

125-rated over hurdles the Multiplex gelding posted a career best effort over the larger obstacles finishing second to Court Master beaten ¾L last month on soft ground. More likely than some to run his race here.

Form: 441-5F2

Kateson³³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: T Lacey| OR: 137

11/8

Has produced a couple of decent efforts over fences since making his debut at Exeter last month. Worth a check in the market dropping in class.

Form: 377-725

Mr Clarkson^b,t²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: David Noonan| T: D Pipe| OR: 135

7/2

Capable 137-rated handicap hurdler, the Jeremy gelding ran with credit on chasing introduction in an Exeter 2m3f novices' handicap earlier this month. Likely to improve.

Form: P6-1153

Theligny^t⁶⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 134

9/1

Five-race maiden over fences. Dismal effort at Haydock when last seen in November but comes in for consideration on the back of a couple of encouraging performances last year. No surprise to witness an improved showing.

Form: P/363-28

Forecasts

Kateson (11/8), Jammy George (11/4), Mr Clarkson (7/2), Present Value (8/1), Theligny (9/1), Jammin Masters (11/1)

JAMMIN MASTERS can get off the mark for connections at the eighth time of asking over the larger obstacles following a number of near misses this time last year. The nine-year-old may have needed his comeback run at Lingfield earlier this month and can open his account in first-time cheekpieces for trainer Warren Greatrex. Mr Clarkson, can improve on a pleasing debut over fences earlier this month, Present Value for trainer Evan Williams and the highly tried Kateson should not be underestimated.
