Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 110

5/1

Fairly useful form over hurdles in France. Disappointing in that sphere for current yard and only slightly better when 14 lengths second on 2m Ffos Las chase debut. Back up in trip.

Form: 3245-82

Robaddan^p1,t²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Hugh Nugent⁽⁵⁾| T: C J Mann| OR: 109

15/2

Winning pointer who was second on Sedgefield chase debut in January but has disappointed twice since, including pulled up on Fontwell return. Has cheekpieces added to tongue tie now.

Form: 24425-P

Oxwich Bay³²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 108| D

9/4

Put it all together to get off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot (21f) in July. Not disgraced when chasing home a progressive rival over hurdles at Haydock last month and claims off same mark here.

Form: U15342

Danseur Du Large^t⁴⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Rex Dingle| T: P Gundry| OR: 104

11/1

Enigmatic chaser who revived all of a sudden to land a 3¼m handicap at Fontwell in October. Shaped as if still in form under an aggressive ride when fourth over 21.5f there since.

Forecasts

High Up In The Air (11/8), Oxwich Bay (9/4), Rostello (5/1), Robaddan (15/2), Oakley Hall (10/1), Danseur Du Large (11/1)

HIGH UP IN THE AIR scored in good style at Lingfield last time and is taken to win on this card for the second year running. Oxwich Bay can give him most to think about.
