Chef De Troupe²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 126| D

5/6

Improved to win handicap at Perth and claimer at Huntingdon (both 2m) on his last 2 starts. A classy sort for a seller and good chance of the hat-trick.

Form: 22-4411

Ferrobin^p⁶⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: James Davies| T: M Young| OR: 117| BF| D

17/2

Capitalised on falling mark when scoring at Fontwell in August. Good second next time and possibly unsuited by very testing ground since. First run for yard after leaving Dan Skelton.

Form: 6-U5125

Paricolor^b,t¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-5| J: Fergus Gillard⁽⁵⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 113| CD

11/8

Took advantage of a drop to selling company over C&D 13 days ago. Likely to give another good account but he may struggle to live with an on-song Chef de Troupe.

Form: 8-F5651

Lethal Look^t³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: Sarah Hollinshead

150/1

No form in varied events on the Flat ahead of this switch to hurdles.

Form:

Hit The Bottle^t³³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽⁵⁾| T: L Horsfall| OR: 82

50/1

Runner-up in a Stratford bumper in July 2019 for Fergal O'Brien but has subsequently finished well held in bumper and 3 maiden/novice hurdles for this trainer. Down in grade but can still only watch.

Form: 2-770P

Forecasts

Chef De Troupe (5/6), Paricolor (11/8), Ferrobin (17/2), Hit The Bottle (50/1), Lethal Look (150/1)

A repeat of the form CHEF DE TROUPE has shown when winning his last 2 starts will make him tough to beat now dropping into a seller. Paricolor won a similar event over C&D a fortnight ago and can give Dr Richard Newland's charge most to do.
