Dual hurdles winner who is progressing well over fences, landing a Fontwell maiden (17.7f) in March and following up emphatically in a Southwell novice last month. Player on handicap bow.

28/1
Useful hurdler in 2018. Lightly raced since but confirmed he still has plenty to offer when landing a Hexham novice chase (15.6f) in September. Well held over C&D in October but given a break since.

13/2
Useful chaser (at up to 3m) who added another novice hurdle to his tally at Doncaster (19.4f) in March. Fell in Grade 1 at Aintree since but this a much more suitable assignment.

3/1
Improved for the switch to chasing, landing pair of novices' handicap chase contests at around 2m this winter. Better than bare result when third at Sandown in February and he remains with potential.

4/1
Fairly useful winning hurdler who had plenty of placed efforts to his name over fences prior to getting off the mark at Newbury (2m) in March. No reason why he won't go well again.

Returned with a bang in handicap chases last term, getting the hat-trick up at Sedgefield (extended 2m) in September. Good third back from a break here (2m) in March and not ruled out.

Fidelio Vallis (13/8), Numitor (3/1), Shut The Box (4/1), Topofthecotswolds (13/2), Peterborough (17/2), Bun Doran (20/1), Leapaway (28/1)

Verdict

A competitive contest with the vote in favour of handicap chase debutant FIDELIO VALLIS. He's impressed in landing back-to-back maiden/novice chase contests in recent months and it's likely there is more to come. Numitor and Topofthecotswolds are a couple of others to consider, along with Shut The Box.

  1. FIDELIO VALLIS (FR)
  2. NUMITOR
  3. TOPOFTHECOTSWOLDS (IRE)
