16/1
Getaway gelding who knew his job when making a winning start at Newcastle (AW) almost 3 months ago. No reason why he won't be as effective on turf, so warrants respect.

9/1
Well-related gelding who scored readily at Downpatrick on debut last month and is entitled to step forward, so he boasts excellent claims in his follow-up bid.

Well-bred sort who stepped up on his promising debut when comfortably making all at Exeter at the turn of the year. May well have enough to defy a penalty.

20/1
Overcame inexperience to win 7-runner bumper at Perth, then was far from disgraced when runner-up at Carlisle in October. Off since and a bit more is required.

€10,000 3-y-o, Network gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Clic Work, stayed 19f. Dam 17f hurdle winner. Unplaced both starts in Irish points (Sep 27, latest).

10/1
Frankel gelding, out of a Nell Gwyn winner. Sold for just £26,000 as a 3-y-o, but in good hands and certainly bred for the job, so can't be ruled out on debut.

66/1
Boasts a good Flat pedigree and lived up to his market billing when scoring at Newcastle on debut. Found out under a penalty there a couple of months ago, however.

5/1
Mastercraftsman gelding who looked a good prospect when landing a "junior" bumper at Doncaster (13f) in November, asserting late on and ultimately well on top at finish. Big player with more to come.
|
Timeform
Bred to do well in this discipline and made a positive start when runner-up at Warwick 35 days ago. Entitled to improve, so well respected.
|

Califet gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Botani. Notable jockey booking, so worth considering if strong in the betting.

Forecasts

Flemenstide (15/8), High Worth (10/3), Masaccio (5/1), Vina Ardanza (15/2), Drumbear (9/1), Home Fire (10/1), Argonauta (16/1), Lock Down Luke (20/1), Hackberry (66/1), Grand Voyage (100/1)

Verdict

FLEMENSTIDE had plenty to spare when opening his account at Exeter around 3 months ago and, under another positive ride, he's taken to defy a penalty despite the presence of some promising opposition in the shape of High Worth and Irish-raider Drumbear.

  1. FLEMENSTIDE (IRE)
  2. DRUMBEAR
  3. HIGH WORTH (IRE)
