4/1
Useful hurdler/chaser at his best but he's been below par back in this sphere on his last two runs. Needs to step forward despite a slipping mark.

Dual 2m4f winner at the start of the season but his form has nosedived, last of 5 at Plumpton after 4 months off 19 days ago. Has serious questions to answer at present.

Failed to take to chasing but landed 2m3f handicap at Doncaster in November. Not disgraced after 10 weeks off back at 2m when fourth at Newcastle, so he needs considering.

5/4
Winning Irish pointer who is progressing well over hurdles, readily landing 2m Huntingdon novice 31 days ago. Looks to have got in lightly now handicapping and step up in trip should suit. Player.

10/1
In fine form early in season, winning at Warwick and Sedgefield, and he posted good second of 9 at Doncaster (2m3f) in November. Goes well fresh, so he's worth considering after his break.

Forecasts

Kakamora (5/4), Gunsight Ridge (7/2), Good Boy Bobby (4/1), Prince Kayf (9/2), Getareason (13/2), Big Bad Bear (15/2), Fugitives Drift (9/1), Tayzar (10/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for a few of these but the most persuasive one is for KAKAMORA who was well on top at the finish when opening his account at Huntingdon and starts life in handicaps off a lenient mark. BothTayzar and Gunsight Ridge are not passed over easily either in a useful handicap.

  1. KAKAMORA
  2. TAYZAR
  3. GUNSIGHT RIDGE
