Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: James Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 100| BF| CD

12/1

Remains a maiden after 18 runs, and pulled up in handicap chase at Plumpton (25.7f, soft) 27 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 22442P

Lex Talionis^t,v²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Alan Johns| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 98

13/2

Unreliable sort for Charlie Mann but not disgraced in first-time visor when fourth in handicap chase at Sedgefield (26.3f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Respected for new yard.

Form: 44/D0-44

Arqalina³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 92| CD

3/1

Course winner who wasn't discredited after 9 months off when fifth of 7 in handicap chase (7/2) at Uttoxeter (22.5f, soft) 30 days ago. Should build on that run so solid claims.

Form: 19/14P-5

Special Buddy^p,t1¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: D A Jacob| T: B Pauling| OR: 88

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on but offered little when remote fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Lingfield (23.5f, soft, 12/1) on debut over fences 19 days ago. Others appeal more.

Form: U2/P45-5

Sutter's Mill^p²³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Conor Ring⁽³⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 88| D

22/1

Unreliable type who was let down by his jumping when sixth of 8 in 26f handicap chase at Fontwell last time. Others more persuasive.

Form: 3PP-P46

Misty Mai^t1²⁶⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-8| J: S Bowen| T: D A Rees| OR: 82| C| D

5/1

Course winner but it's now fourteen runs since her last win in 2018 and off since pulled up in handicap over C&D 8 months ago. Tongue strap on with plenty to prove on her comeback.

Form: 2335PP-

Dont Be Robin^p²³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: David Noonan| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 76

14/1

Only one win from 28 runs and he went backwards from reappearance third when modest fifth of 8 in 26f handicap at Fontwell 23 days ago. Hard to warm to.

Form: 4034-35

Ector^p¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Harry Bannister| T: W Greatrex| OR: 74

3/1

Back over fences when excellent second of 15 in 25f handicap chase at Hereford 19 days ago. Up 3 lb but still has few miles on the clock and weighted to go very close.

Form: 263P-92

Ocean's Dream²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams| OR: 81

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 80/1, little promise when sixth of 9 in handicap chase at Stratford (20.9f, good to soft) on debut over fences 21 days ago. Big step forward is needed.

Form: 67686

Monty Massini^p1⁴⁷³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Charlie Price⁽⁵⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 59

80/1

66/1, pulled up in 21f handicap chase at Newton Abbot 15 months ago on final run for Sarah Robinson. Cheekpieces on but tough ask from 15 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 64PPPP-

The Dawn Man²⁶⁰

Weight: 11-3| Age: 9

T: M Scudamore J: Brendan Powell

Forecasts

Arqalina (3/1), Ector (3/1), Misty Mai (5/1), The Dawn Man (5/1), Lex Talionis (13/2), Special Buddy (12/1), Hidden Cargo (12/1), Dont Be Robin (14/1), Ocean's Dream (14/1), Sutter's Mill (22/1), Monty Massini (80/1)

ECTOR looks the way to go here as he is less exposed than most of these over fences and figures on a good mark after a fine recent second at Hereford. Arqalina has gained both her wins round here so is feared most after an encouraging return at Uttoxeter, although The Dawn Man could have a say too if fully tuned up for his comeback.
