4/1

Notched second success in this sphere when landing a 14-runner Perth handicap (20.1f) on return. Ran no sort of race at Bangor next time though the ground was heavy that day.

West Wizard^t,v1¹⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Adrian Heskin| T: Mrs S Leech| OR: 102

16/1

Just modest handicap chaser nowadays. Has been running in France this season but disappointed last time. Change of headgear and one to treat with caution.

Form: 4P-3240

Out For Justice^t²³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Katy Price| OR: 101| D

Doctor Haze^p¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 100

11/1

Point winner who got back on track reverted to fences after 5 months off when second at Stratford, though looked hard work. Ultimately let down by jumping in this headgear over C&D 2 weeks ago.

Form: PP/69-2U

Alexander The Grey^t²⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Lily Pinchin⁽⁷⁾| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 100| BF| D

8/1

Only one win from 33 runs, and turned in modest effort when sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Kelso (21.6f) 27 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 31-54U6

Fr Humphrey^b,t²⁷

Age: 12| Weight: 11-9| J: Harry Reed⁽³⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 99| CD

12/1

Landed a veterans chase over C&D last autumn and best effort since when third at Kelso last time. Becoming well treated but is rising 13.

Form: 21-4R43

Easter Eric^v1²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: J M Quinlan| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 99

16/1

Modest form over hurdles for David Pipe. No improvement in 3 starts for this yard, failing to meet expectations on chase debut at Plumpton on return. Visored for 1st time.

Form: 408/05-6

Cybalko^t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: David England| T: S England| OR: 97

20/1

Record stands at 0-18 and offered little back over fences at Warwick 3 weeks ago. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 54-4549

Blackwood Rover^b1²¹²

Age: 12| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Alex Chadwick⁽⁷⁾| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 90| D

The Late Legend^t⁶^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: S Bowen| T: T H Weston| OR: 77

5/4

Progressive over fences this season and off the mark in good style at Sedgefield on Wednesday. Obvious claims under a penalty if this doesn't come too soon.

Form: 695-221

Torrent Des Mottes^p²¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-6| J: C J Todd⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Cornwall| OR: 82| C

28/1

Back to form when taking advantage of a career-low mark at Huntingdon in March. Overall strike rate tempers enthusiasm for the follow up, however. Off 7 months.

Form: 766451-

Moroval^p²³⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Max Browne⁽⁷⁾| T: Tracey Leeson| OR: 76

80/1

Long-standing maiden who ended last season out of form. Off 7 months. Switches from hurdles to chase.

Forecasts

The Late Legend (5/4), Write It Down (4/1), Alexander The Grey (8/1), Doctor Haze (11/1), Fr Humphrey (12/1), Easter Eric (16/1), West Wizard (16/1), Out For Justice (16/1), Cybalko (20/1), Torrent Des Mottes (28/1), Moroval (80/1), Blackwood Rover (80/1)

THE LATE LEGEND continued his progress over fences when an impressive winner at Sedgefield last week and is the one to beat under a penalty on that form. Write It Down might have found the heavy going against him at Bangor 2 weeks ago and he looked better than ever when scoring at Perth the time before, so can be expected to bounce back and emerge as the biggest threat.
