Silver Tassie²⁸³

Age: 12| Weight: 12-0| J: Billy Garritty⁽⁵⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 122| D

40/1

Fairly useful chaser who largely performed with credit in defeat last term, yet to be asked for his effort when falling at Catterick in January. Not discounted on return but losing run is off-putting.

Cesar Et Rosalie^p,t²⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: R T Dunne| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 120| D

6/1

Back to winning ways from 2 lb lower mark at Uttoxeter (3m) in spring 2019 and creditable efforts on completed starts thereafter. Pulled up in Grimthorpe chase when last seen but no forlorn hope here.

Form: 1F35UP-

Cash To Ash^p,t²⁷⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: M Walford| OR: 119

12/1

Low-mileage 7-y-o who shed maiden tag when landing 23.4f handicap chase at Newcastle in December. Unable to dominate when below par next time but returns to action with yard amongst the winners.

Financial Outcome^t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr Peter Bryan⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss R Curtis| OR: 119| BF| D

3/1

Off the mark at the fourth attempt in this sphere at Doncaster (26f) in January and he arrives here having ran well when runner-up on return at Ffos Las earlier this month. Claims on that evidence.

Form: 4133P-2

Air Navigator^p,t²⁴⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: J J Burke| T: T R George| OR: 118

7/1

Boasts a mixed record over larger obstacles but back on track to large extent when 13 lengths second at Wincanton (25f) in March. Gone well fresh previously and on a workable mark.

Form: 6/073P2-

Vice Et Vertu^b⁷⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-9| J: P J Brennan| T: H D Daly| OR: 117| D

12/1

Talented chaser when on-song, but he's never been the most reliable of performers and has a point to prove following a tame effort at Uttoxeter in August.

Form: 5/317-2P

Tintern Theatre^p1¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 117| D

6/1

Very lightly raced in recent years and, despite a career-low mark there was limited encouragement to glean from his return over shorter here 17 days ago. Cheekpieces now reached for.

Form: 00784/0

Hear No Evil¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: S Bowen| T: N C Kelly| OR: 115

16/1

Fairly useful hurdles winner for Dan Skelton who has been below that level in handful of chase tries for present stable this season. Others make greater appeal.

Form: 09-6036

Grange Ranger²⁴⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Emma Smith-Chaston⁽⁷⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 115

14/1

Signs of promise over hurdles and comfortably bettered previous exploits under Rules when runner-up over fences on yard debut at Catterick (25f) in February. More to come this term on that evidence.

Form: 485/822-

Chase The Wind^t³⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 11-4| J: Henry Brooke| T: Miss J E Foster| OR: 112| CD

40/1

Veteran who regained winning thread at Huntingdon (23.6f) 12 months ago and held form well thereafter in defeat. Likely his Uttoxeter return was needed in September and each-way possibilities.

Form: 2/3123-P

Stockburn^v³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Adrian Heskin| T: A King| OR: 108| D

10/1

Winner of a Bangor handicap chase from 3 lb higher in spring 2019 but failed to apply himself fully thereafter and no upturn on return at Uttoxeter (3m) last month. Others preferred.

Form: 2P234-9

Absolutely Dylan²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Sam Coltherd⁽³⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 100

10/1

Dual chase winner but below his best for some time, failing to make the frame in handful of starts last term. Likely his Hexham return 3 weeks ago was needed and handicapper continues to relent.

Form: 5/5F4P-5

Forecasts

Financial Outcome (3/1), Cesar Et Rosalie (6/1), Tintern Theatre (6/1), Air Navigator (7/1), Stockburn (10/1), Absolutely Dylan (10/1), Cash To Ash (12/1), Vice Et Vertu (12/1), Grange Ranger (14/1), Hear No Evil (16/1), Silver Tassie (40/1), Chase The Wind (40/1)

FINANCIAL OUTCOME ran well on the back of 7 months off when runner-up at Ffos Las earlier this month and, with his rider able to take off a valuable 7 lb, he's fancied to make a bold bid to go one place better with that under his belt. Cash To Ash remains relatively low-mileage as a chaser and is feared on return, along with Cesar Et Rosalie and Air Navigator.
