1/12
Smart hurdler in 2018/19 but not at quite same level over fences but his latest third in a Newbury handicap (23.4f) was a solid enough display. This rates an excellent opportunity to get off the mark.

Point winner who was well beaten in that sphere back in 2018 and, having been sent off at 200/1, he offered little on Rules debut in a Wetherby novice chase (21.3f) last month.

20/1
Well held over hurdles/fences during 2017/18 and whilst successful between the flags last year, he was well held faced with a stiff task on belated Rules return at Musselburgh last month.

80/1
Poor Flat winner who ran up to best when fourth in a Musselburgh handicap (23.8f) in November. However, that still only poor form and switch to chasing needs to bring about plenty of improvement.

40/1
Multiple point winner who was fitted with a hood/tongue tie and ultimately finished well held on hurdles bow at Plumpton (20.5f) in January. Switch to chasing needs to have positive effect now.

Forecasts

Ballymoy (1/12), Canada Kid (12/1), Matthew Man (20/1), Loveyoutothemoon (40/1), Strategic (80/1)

Verdict

This looks a straightforward opportunity for BALLYMOY who, whilst winless to date over fences, ran up to his best in this sphere when a close-up third at Newbury last month and he's impossible to oppose.

  1. BALLYMOY (IRE)
  2. CANADA KID
  3. LOVEYOUTOTHEMOON
