Winner of this race 2 years ago. Ran poorly at Newmarket last time but hadn't been shaping up too badly prior to that.
|
7/1, very good second of 10 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 15 days ago, clear of rest. Enters calculations from lower turf mark.
|
Bit below form third of 9 in handicap chase at this course (16.4f, soft, 5/1). Off 7 months. Below form on final Flat run.
|
20/1, tenth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft). Off 9 months. Fair on the Flat, career best when winning on last Flat outing. Market useful on return.
|
Winner at Bath in September. Very good second of 14 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 11/4) 23 days ago, clear of rest. Should give another good account.
|
Temperamental sort. Good second over hurdles at Ffos Las (20f) 22 days ago, but had a lot in his favour when successful on last Flat run, so looks one to take on.
|
Twelve runs since last win in 2017. 14/1, better than bare result when fourth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good) 26 days ago, late headway. Given a chance by the handicapper.
|
Good third of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Wolverhampton (16.6f) last time, probably aided by the test of speed at the trip. Off 133 days.
|
7/2, respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not taken lightly.
|
Fell in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f, heavy, 11/2). Off 7 months. Significantly up in trip. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing.
|
Useful handicap hurdler, thriving for new connections when last seen, best effort when completing 5-timer at Uttoxeter last time. Potentially very well treated now returned to the Flat.
|
Eleven runs since last win in 2019. Twelfth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 28/1) 23 days ago, racing very ride home turn.
|
One win from 32 Flat runs. Second at Ayr on penultimate run but not in same form (11/2) at Wolverhampton (16.6f) last week.
|
Sixth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good, 22/1) 26 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere from out of the weights.

Main Fact (1/1), Hugoigo (7/1), Master Milliner (7/1), Mere Anarchy (11/1), War Empress (14/1), All My Love (16/1), Kozier (16/1), Graceful Lady (18/1), Tynecastle Park (18/1), Sea Sculpture (28/1), Eddiemaurice (40/1), Kenny George (50/1), Power Home (50/1), Navajo Star (50/1), Paintball Wizard (80/1)
MAIN FACT thrived over hurdles for his new connections last season and looks on a very handy mark now returning to the Flat, so his claims appear to be strong. Tynecastle Park ran well at Southwell 15 days ago and must enter calculations from his lower turf mark, with War Empress and All My Love others to consider.
