Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: R M Power| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 136| D

85/40

Useful winning hurder but very much type to make a chaser and made highly promising debut over fences when third of 11 in 25f handicap at Aintree 17 days ago. Much better to come so hard to beat.

Form: 12444-3

Sussex Ranger^b²⁷⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 134

28/1

Three-time hurdle winner who signed off for last term with first chasing success in 23f Newbury novice handicap. Hit with an 8 lb rise but it shouldn't prevent him having a say if primed for return.

Mr Clarkson^b,t²⁸⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: David Noonan| T: D Pipe| OR: 132| CWS

50/1

Useful winning hurdler last season but he signed off with underwhelming effort over fences at Ffos Las having shown aptitude for chasing here. Returns after wind op with a bit to prove.

Form: 6/11535-

Tedham³⁰⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: James Bowen| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 131| BF

3/1

Useful hurdler who scored at Wincanton at the turn of 2019 and ran well most starts after. Interesting recruit to chasing so not dismissed lightly on return for in-form yard.

Form: 217/637-

Eden Du Houx^t²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: C Brace⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 129| C| D

8/1

Irish point winner who (5/4) returned as good as ever over hurdles to land Bangor conditions event (23f) 49 days ago. Sort to take to fences so worth considering for yard among the winners.

Form: 34420-1

Annsam²⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Conor Ring⁽³⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 127

18/1

Ended last season firmly on the up, bagging 19f handicap hurdles at Taunton and Catterick. Keen-going sort but should stay this longer trip so another interesting chasing prospect here.

Form: 3/16511-

St Barts²⁷⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 125| D

15/2

Winning pointer who made it 2-3 over hurdles when scoring readily in 3m Ascot handicap last winter. Raced only soft/heavy ground so far but useful chasing prospect who shouldn't be taken lightly.

Form: 14/6131-

Manning Estate²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Brendan Powell| T: O Sherwood| OR: 120| D

10/1

Fairly useful winning 3m hurdler but he has yet to convince over fences, jumping ponderously in first-time blinkers when remote third of 5 at Hereford on return. Others much preferred here.

Form: 42/F1-43

Forecasts

Ofalltheginjoints (85/40), Tedham (3/1), Eden Du Houx (11/2), St Barts (15/2), Thegallantway (8/1), Manning Estate (10/1), Annsam (18/1), Sussex Ranger (28/1), Mr Clarkson (50/1)

A fascinating novice handicap in which OFALLTHEGINJOINTS is taken to build on his hugely promising debut third at Aintree and confirm himself a smart young chaser in the making. Thegallantway has his fitness proven so heads the list of dangers and another fencing debutant Tedham is also expected to have a say with his yard in such good nick. Annsam and St Barts are not ruled out easily either.
