Late Romantic^p1,t³¹

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: C J Todd| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 127

9/4

Generally a consistent sort who gained a win at Wetherby on return to action this winter; respectable run in defeat last time out at Leicester but he can make jumping errors; wears first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 52-1542

Monbeg River³⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Harry Reed| T: M Todhunter| OR: 125

9/2

Only has one win since 2015, a success at Doncaster in 2017 and he showed nothing last time out at Doncaster; very tough to fancy here.

Form: 225-469

Ask The Weatherman^b³³

Age: 11| Weight: 11-9| J: Rex Dingle| T: Jack Barber| OR: 122| D

6/4

Got his head back in front at Plumpton last time and while that wasn't the strongest contest, it proves he's in better form than some of his rivals; interesting from 5lb higher.

Form: 149-671

Set List³¹⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-0| J: Bruce Lynn⁽³⁾| T: A C Whillans| OR: 113| D

12/1

No wins since 2016 but ran a respectable race at Newcastle last time out over hurdles; capable from this mark if ready to go on debut for new yard.

Form: 5/24562-

Samstown^b⁴¹

Age: 13| Weight: 10-13| J: Blair Campbell| T: A C Whillans| OR: 112| C

11/2

Has failed to finish on four of his last five starts but his completed finish was a win here over 2f further. However, couldn't build on that in any way last time.

Form: 5PF-P1P

Forecasts

Ask The Weatherman (6/4), Late Romantic (9/4), Monbeg River (9/2), Samstown (11/2), Set List (12/1)

A moderate affair but we know ASK THE WEATHERMAN is in decent form having won at Plumpton last time out and he shades the vote ahead of Set List who could be interesting if ready to go on his return. Samstown is a player if he returns to the form that saw him win here two starts back.
