2/5

Dual winner of small-field handicap chase contests during second half of last year and shaped as if still in good form at Doncaster (16.4f) on latest start. Respected.

Challow¹²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Shane Quinlan⁽⁵⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 85

Long-standing maiden under both codes who was pulled up here last time and makes little appeal.

Heartbreak Kid³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 125| C

15/8

Easy winner of sole point and 2-4 over hurdles. Sound start to chase career when second at Carlisle in November but ran poorly switched to handicap at Kelso 11 weeks later. Must bounce back.

Form: 371-124

Forecasts

Return Ticket (2/5), Whoshotthesheriff (5/4), Heartbreak Kid (15/8), Challow (80/1), Here In The Dark (125/1)

WHOSHOTTHESHERIFF resumed winning ways with ease at Catterick 23 days ago and is still fairly fresh heading into the spring, so he's preferred to Return Ticket and Heartbreak Kid, who are obvious threats.
