Off time: 19:00 | Winning time: 5m 15.6s

Majestic Touch^t³³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-13| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 121| C

12/1

Dual hurdles winner who is certainly capable off this sort of mark, but has failed to complete on 2 of his last 3 starts over fences.

Form: 234F-8F

Lord Bryan^p1,t²⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 120| CD

20/1

Went close at Taunton in February but has shown precious little in 2 starts here since jump racing's resumption. Now tried in cheekpieces.

Form: 2P62-9P

Jaytrack Parkhomes^t²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 118

9/4

Bumper winner who made a decent start to chase career when runner-up at Wincanton in January. Last month's reappearance spin over hurdles will have blown away the cobwebs and he's a big player.

Form: 32352-6

Nineohtwooneoh^t⁵⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 117| BF

9/2

Good start over fences when landing a Southwell handicap in good style in July. However, ran no sort of a race under a penalty a week later and bit to prove now. Tongue strap refitted.

Form: 7/314-1P

Dream Bolt^t²⁶

Age: 12| Weight: 11-1| J: S Bowen| T: D A Rees| OR: 109| CD

7/1

Found just one too strong back from a break at Stratford in July and not seen to best effect back there last month. However, hasn't won a race since December 2017.

Form: 3685/24

Mine's A Pint^h,t²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 106

11/2

Below par in a couple of runs during the winter but shaped as if ability remains intact on last month's reappearance at Uttoxeter. Should be sharper now and he's not discounted.

Form: 132/83-5

Blue N Yellow²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: J J Burke| T: T R George| OR: 97

4/1

Fair hurdler who is yet to match that form over fences, runner-up by virtue of several non-completions at Southwell last time. Looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 5426-52

Forecasts

Jaytrack Parkhomes (9/4), Blue N Yellow (4/1), Nineohtwooneoh (9/2), Mine's A Pint (11/2), Dream Bolt (7/1), Majestic Touch (12/1), Saintemilion (12/1), Lord Bryan (20/1)

JAYTRACK PARKHOMES proved expensive to follow over hurdles, but he looks destined for better things in this sphere judged on his chase debut second at Wincanton in January. Colim Tizzard's charge may have most to fear from Mine's A Pint, who didn't shape at all badly on his reappearance. Blue N Yellow is just about the pick of the remainder given how disappointing Nineohtwooneoh was last time.
