Virginia Chick²⁰⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Isabel Williams⁽⁵⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 127| D

5/1

Six wins from 22 NH runs but ended last season below par. Back now after 6 months off and not ruled out if freshened up after his break.

Form: 702464-

Dell' Arca^b,t⁴⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-9| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| OR: 126| D

8/1

Winless since 2018 but posted good third of 9 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (26.1f, good to soft) 47 days ago, set lot to do. Can make his presence felt again.

Form: 59P3-73

Not A Role Model²¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Jack Tudor⁽⁵⁾| T: S Thomas| OR: 125

11/2

Consistent sort who ended last term on the up with second of 6 in handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f, heavy). Off 7 months but already three-time winner over fences so well worth considering.

Form: 44/41P2-

Lithic²⁵³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-6| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 123

8/1

Unreliable individual who is now nineteen runs without a win. Returns after 8-month absence and others appeal more.

Form: 3/P3PB6-

Kings Monarch²⁸⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: R Patrick⁽³⁾| T: Kerry Lee| OR: 122| D

5/1

Fairly useful winning chaser at his best but off track since pulled up in handicap chase at Doncaster (24f, soft) 9 months ago when jumped poorly. Has work to do.

Form: 5/4443P-

Lord Bryan^p,t¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 118

9/2

Back on song of late, recording good second of 11 in handicap chase (16/1) at Uttoxeter (24f, good) 13 days ago. Must enter calculations nudged up just 1lb.

Form: 62-9P42

Financial Outcome^t²⁰⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: S Bowen| T: Miss R Curtis| OR: 117| D

3/1

Landed 26f handicap chase at Doncaster in January but not seen out since pulled up in handicap chase (25/1) at Uttoxeter (34f) 6 months ago. No surprise to see him bounce back on his return.

Forecasts

Financial Outcome (3/1), Lord Bryan (9/2), Kings Monarch (5/1), Virginia Chick (5/1), Not A Role Model (11/2), Holdbacktheriver (13/2), Lithic (8/1), Dell' Arca (8/1)

A tightly-knit staying handicap in which marginal preference is for the returning NOT A ROLE MODEL who has a good win ratio over fences and ended last season still on the up. Veteran Dell' Arca is much more exposed but arrives in good form so is sure to be on the premises, while Lord Bryan is another well worth a second look in an open contest.
