Chase The Wind⁸^{(ex 7)}

Age: 12| Weight: 12-5| J: Tom Midgley⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss J E Foster| OR: 99| D

3/1

Veteran who has dropped a long way in the weights and built on the promise of his Wetherby run when successful under a cool ride at Uttoxeter last week. Ought to go very well under a penalty.

Form: P7P631

Take Em Out^t¹⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 12-1| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 102

33/1

Matched his fair hurdle exploits when landing a Stratford handicap chase in July 2019. Restricted to just 2 runs since, well held on each occasion. Up in trip.

Form: 62/51-P6

Bonanza Sam^b³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-1| J: Alexander Thorne⁽⁵⁾| T: J Mason| OR: 102

5/1

Winning pointer who seemed transformed by a step up to 3m and the application of blinkers when springing a surprise at Exeter last month. Up 9 lb and task is to now back that up.

Form: 62-0P01

Going Mobile^t³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 92

5/1

Off mark in 19f Market Rasen handicap in October but below par since and stamina for this far is a big query.

Form: 166765

Cairnshill²⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 10-13| J: Alison Clarke⁽⁷⁾| T: Kenny Johnson| OR: 86

17/2

Fallen a long way in the weights over both sets of obstacles without really looking like he's going to take advantage.

Form: PP43P7

Spirit Of Hale^t,v²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 85| CD

10/3

Fair staying chaser when in the mood and strung a couple of solid races together when twice finding only one too good. Creeping back up the weights.

Form: 05P322

Dutch Canyon¹³²

Age: 11| Weight: 10-4| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 77

11/2

Dual 3m chase winner last season but veteran is proving hard to catch right this term.

Form: 2-29297

Strategic^v⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁷⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 70

66/1

Poor Flat winner who isn't bred for chasing and made mistakes on debut over the larger obstacles last month.

Form: 8-98448

Scorpo^b¹⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: Philip Armson⁽⁷⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 68| CD

40/1

Sole win came back in early 2019 and she has offered little in 5 runs this term. Long way out of the weights.

Form: 7-UP787

Forecasts

Chase The Wind (3/1), Spirit Of Hale (10/3), Going Mobile (5/1), Bonanza Sam (5/1), Dutch Canyon (11/2), Cairnshill (17/2), Take Em Out (33/1), Scorpo (40/1), Strategic (66/1)

CHASE THE WIND was value for extra when cashing in on a career-low mark at Uttoxeter last week, and with a 7 lb conditional off-setting the penalty, his follow-up claims appear to be bright. Bonanza Sam was perked up no end by blinkers at Exeter and is a big threat if the headgear works again.
