Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: James Best| T: M Young| OR: 119| D

10/1

Fairly useful hurdler who landed 2m Market Rasen selling handicap in December. However, got no further than the first fence on sole previous start over fences, so he does have a bit to prove.

Form: 252124

Flaminger⁷⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 119| C

11/4

Took well to fences last term, winning twice (including here), and added to his tally on return at Fontwell. Struggled in better company since, but dangerous back down in class/the weights here.

Form: 34-156P

Jackson Hill^h,t²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Mitchell Bastyan⁽³⁾| T: M F Harris| OR: 117

6/4

Finally got off the mark when scoring at Wincanton (Dandolo du Gite third) in January. Good effort on form when second back there since but he didn't find much come the crunch.

Form: 223312

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: James Davies| T: N J Gifford| OR: 115

7/2

Fairly useful chaser. Latest win in chase at Kempton in October but remote fourth at Newbury next time. Fifth in a jumpers bumper in January.

8/1

Took well to chasing last term, scoring 3 times. Solid return to action at Uttoxeter in October. Disappointed at Huntingdon next time but in process of running creditably when fell 2 out here latest.

Forecasts

Jackson Hill (6/4), Flaminger (11/4), Dandolo Du Gite (11/4), Fairway Freddy (7/2), Wenceslaus (8/1), Le Coeur Net (8/1), Ferrobin (10/1)

DANDOLO DU GITE gets the nod to build on a more encouraging run at Wincanton last time and turn the tables on Jackson Hill. This is easier than the races Flaminger has contested since his reappearance win so he could also have a say having come down to just 1 lb above that successful mark.
