Cybalko^p,t¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 100| C

9/4

Finally opened his account with cheekpieces refitted over 19.3f here 12 days ago, appearing to benefit from a more positive ride. 7 lb rise fair enough and another bold show likely.

Form: 549431

Bering Upsun^p²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Nathan Moscrop⁽³⁾| T: J Ewart| OR: 88

25/1

Off the mark in a Kelso handicap chase off 3 lb higher mark last October, but hasn't come close to matching that form in 5 subsequent starts.

Form: 1454-7P

Arizona Glory¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: B S Hughes| T: Evan Williams| OR: 94

10/3

Modest hurdler (0-6 in that sphere), but fair fourth on recent chase debut at Stratford (20.9f) and claims here off 2 lb lower if brushing up in the jumping department.

Form: 483-454

Go To Court^p⁵⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Sam Coltherd⁽³⁾| T: Miss J E Foster| OR: 86

20/1

Made good start for this yard when third in handicap chase at Bangor on return in July, but has subsequently failed to build on that.

Form: P7-3655

Mac Cennetig^p,t²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Miss Becky Smith⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 82

66/1

Temperamental sort who won novice handicap chase at Market Rasen in July 2019. Well held both completed starts this year, though, and remains 8 lb above that winning mark.

Form: 13P-76F

Roll Of Thunder¹⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-8| J: C O'Farrell| T: J Walton| OR: 82| D

14/1

Below par all 4 starts this year, but now 1 lb lower than for his latest success at Hexham last October and it'd be no surprise were he to bounce back with conditions in his favour.

Form: 12-66P5

Gold Fields^p⁷^{(ex 7)}

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Ross Chapman| T: L Morgan| OR: 75| D

15/8

Improved from out of the blue when making it third time lucky over fences at Fakenham (16.3f) last week. Remains to be seen if he can back that up, but big player under a penalty if able to do so.

Form: 73446-1

Connerys Hill^t¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: Alison Clarke⁽⁷⁾| T: Kenny Johnson| OR: 79

125/1

No show in handful of runs over hurdles and beaten a country mile on recent chase debut at Wetherby.

Form: P-98P3

Captains Run^t¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Alain Cawley| T: J Farrelly| OR: 76

14/1

Tongue tie had a positive effect when runner-up twice over 2m at Ffos Las in October. Perhaps shouldn't be judged too harshly on latest effort (went off too hard), but more needed all the same.

Form: 3P-P227

Pc Dixon^p¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Luke Scott⁽⁷⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 71| D

25/1

Well held both starts this season, taking record over fences to 0-14. Best to look elsewhere.

Form: 4654-56

Forecasts

Gold Fields (15/8), Cybalko (9/4), Arizona Glory (10/3), Roll Of Thunder (14/1), Captains Run (14/1), Go To Court (20/1), Pc Dixon (25/1), Bering Upsun (25/1), Mac Cennetig (66/1), Connerys Hill (125/1)

It may be worth siding with ARIZONA GLORY, who didn't shape badly starting out over fences at Startford 16 days ago and this drop in trip shouldn't be too much of an issue. He is a viable alternative to recent winners Cybalko and Gold Fields, neither of whom look especially solid.
