6/5
9/2 and blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D 30 days ago, easily. May do better still, so boasts leading claims despite hefty rise.

8/1
Lightly-raced winner on Flat. C&D winner. 7/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 10 days ago. Mark demands more but he's going the right way.

5/2
Three wins from 14 runs last year. 6/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D 19 days ago, driven out. 5-lb rise makes things tougher but he's sure to give his running.

7/2
Two wins from 6 runs last year. Sixth of 12 in juvenile hurdle at Kempton (16f, heavy, 22/1) on NH debut 46 days ago. In good form when last seen on the Flat, so worth considering.

Forecasts

Systemic (6/5), Madeeh (5/2), Alborkan (7/2), Sharp Suited (8/1), Arctic Fox (12/1)

Verdict

SYSTEMIC had loads to spare when getting off the mark in first-time blinkers over C&D a month ago so, despite a 13-lb hike in the weights, he's worth a chance to follow up against more exposed types. Fellow last-time-out winner Madeeh is a danger along with Alborkan, who returns to this sphere after an encouraging hurdling debut.
