Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: R Patrick| T: H D Daly| OR: 97

14/1

Has offered little over hurdles so far, including on handicap debut at Huntingdon last time, so needs a visor to perk him up.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Benjamin Poste| T: A Wintle| OR: 97

33/1

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 96

9/2

Had wind op before upping form a notch in this sphere when second of 18 in handicap at Wetherby. Had a hard race that day and might have found next run coming too soon. Turned out quickly again.

Our Rockstar (9/4), Billy Ray (9/2), Shareef Star (8/1), Zero To Hero (10/1), After The Fox (11/1), Coachella Green (11/1), Guillemot (14/1), Definite Winner (14/1), Canastero (14/1), Dont Push It Pall (16/1), Franz Klammer (16/1), Bigbillrigley (18/1), Tamango (33/1), Thais Toir (33/1), Bayley's Dream (66/1), Gabriel Oats (100/1)

OUR ROCKSTAR disappointed fitted with headgear at Plumpton when last seen in October but is worth another chance having won this race 2 years ago off 2 lb lower. Zero To Hero is of interest starting out for Dan Skelton, while Canastero may do better stepped up in trip on handicap bow.
