85/40
Fairly useful winning hurdler last spring but he failed to build on chasing debut promise at Ludlow when well held at Doncaster. May still do better after near six-month break so not written off.

5/1
Dual C&D winner but those victories came over 3 years and he has shown little in the way of promise both runs since the restart. Others much preferred.

18/1
Prolific point winner who made it 3 from 4 over fences for current yard back in 2018. Never dangerous reverted to hurdles on return and should do better now so not ruled out.

16/5
Right back on song after 6 months off when (10/1) landing 3m handicap chase at Uttoxeter. 5 lb rise demands more but this C&D winner still holds good claims.

9/4
Taken really well to fences since the restart, scoring over 3m at Southwell before good third there under 7 lb penalty. Still low mileage so big player despite being 2 lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Sizing At Midnight (85/40), Glengar (9/4), Bermeo (16/5), Calin Du Brizais (5/1), Lotus Pond (18/1)

Verdict

GLENGAR has made an excellent start to life over fences and, with few miles on the clock, is taken to gain a second success at the chief expense of recent Uttoxeter winner Bermeo, who can also boast a C&D victory. Sizing At Midnight is not ruled out either if resurgent after his break.

  1. GLENGAR (IRE)
  2. BERMEO (IRE)
  3. SIZING AT MIDNIGHT (IRE)
