Irish point winner, runner-up when last seen a year ago. Wears cheekpieces for this Rules debut. Betting perhaps the best guide to what's expected.
|
Fair hurdler during his time with Gordon Elliott and won in the pointing field for these connections last winter. One to consider.
|
Fair chaser who showed he retains his ability when returning from an absence to finish fourth of 16 over 25f at Wincanton last month. Down in trip. Needs considering.
|
Multiple point winner (including in December), but only modest form under Rules, pulling up in Ludlow hunter in January. Others are preferred again.
|
Multiple point winner but tailed off on Warwick hunter debut a month ago.
|
Modest in bumpers and a maiden hurdle in Ireland for Elizabeth Doyle in 2019 but 4-4 in the pointing field for current connections last winter. Interesting runner.
|
Fair but quirky hurdler. Placed on completed start in points prior to finishing third on his 22.5f course hunter debut 12 days ago, hanging left after the last. In the shake-up again.
|
Still a maiden in the pointing field after 11 attempts so bit of a surprise if he takes this.
|
Maiden point winner in 2019 who was runner-up on his sole start between the flags last winter. Makes hunter debut.
|
Winning pointer (runner-up last 3 starts in that sphere) who was better than being pulled up suggests (prominent long way) on 22.5f course hunter debut 12 days ago. Shorter trip now.
|
Point winner who showed fair form in 2 hurdles/chase under Rules in the autumn. Likely to go well on this hunter debut.
|
Maiden pointer who was sent off at 100/1 and was behind when unseating at the last on his course hunter debut 12 days ago.
|
Modest form at best over hurdles in 2018/19. Did manage a win and third in points in early-summer 2019 but hasn't been seen since. Hunter debut.

Forecasts
Fumet D'Oudairies (5/2), The Triple Pillar (11/4), I'm Wiser Now (3/1), Captain McGinley (7/1), Rebel Dawn Rising (15/2), Bold Gesture (20/1), Schiap Hill (20/1), Chase Me (33/1), Barrack Hill (150/1), Clondaw Bunny (200/1), Montarlot (200/1), Where Now (200/1), Vic The Vandal (250/1)
The suggestion is THE TRIPLE PILLAR who shaped reasonably well in a couple of novice handicap chases towards the end of last year and ought to be capable of doing something at this level. Captain McGinley and I'm Wiser Now also have the form to figure, while Fumet d'Oudairies is a fascinating contender having been unbeaten in the pointing field last winter.
- THE TRIPLE PILLAR (IRE)
- CAPTAIN MCGINLEY (IRE)
- I'M WISER NOW (IRE)
