Northern Bound^p²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Luca Morgan⁽⁶⁾| T: B Pauling| OR: 105| BF

3/1

Cheekpieces on when promising second of 11 in handicap chase (7/2) at Uttoxeter (20f, good) on debut over fences 20 days ago, left with too much to do. Form has been franked so holds leading claims.

Form: 5/P6-472

Shady Oaks¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: C J Todd| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 105

18/1

Unreliable sort and tried blinkered when last of 7 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (16.4f) 18 days ago. Back up in trip but hard to warm to.

Form: 3/PP-3P7

Battle Of Ideas^b,t³²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Harry Kimber⁽⁸⁾| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 105

7/1

Yet to strike form in two runs this season, blinkered when seventh of 10 in handicap chase (11/2) at Newton Abbot (21f) 32 days ago. Others appeal more.

Form: 3234-47

Keel Over²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: Mitchell Bastyan| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 98

16/1

Maiden hurdler who (16/1) offered little when tenth of 11 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f, good) on debut over fences 20 days ago. Big step forward is required.

Form: 4236/P-0

Veiled Secret^p,t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Bryan Carver| T: T Symonds| OR: 92

9/4

In good form since the restart, third of 12 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f, good) 20 days ago. Much respected off unchanged mark.

Form: 2326-43

Auld Sod^b²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Sean Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 88

10/3

Opened his account over fences at Fontwell in August and good fourth off 9 lb higher in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f) 20 days ago. Not ruled out.

Form: U409-14

Kapsize^t²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Tom Buckley⁽⁶⁾| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 87

10/1

Eighteen runs since last win in 2018, and he beat only one in handicap chase at Bangor (20.3f) 28 days ago. Needs to show a lot more.

Form: 656-PP5

Anti Cool^b⁴⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-0| J: Charlie Hammond| T: R Dickin| OR: 72WS

40/1

Veteran chaser who has been well below par both starts since the restart, pulled up in handicap at Southwell (20.4f) on latter occasion. 7 lb out of the handicap too so very hard to enthuse over.

Form: 1364-4P

Forecasts

Veiled Secret (9/4), Tis Fantastic (9/4), Northern Bound (3/1), Auld Sod (10/3), Battle Of Ideas (7/1), Golden Poet (8/1), Kapsize (10/1), Keel Over (16/1), Shady Oaks (18/1), Anti Cool (40/1), Cnoc Sion (50/1)

NORTHERN BOUND made a promising start to life over fences when runner-up at Uttoxeter and with the winner having scored again since he is taken to go one better here off the same mark. Stratford debut scorer Tis Fantastic is feared most despite a 6 lb rise in the weights with in-form Auld Sod another who is sure to make his presence felt.
