Fairly useful chaser who posted good second in 2m4f handicap at Carlisle 58 days ago. Back over hurdles and not discounted.

Placed in points and he made encouraging start over hurdles when second of 11 in novice here (23.3f, 7/2) 10 days ago. Enters calculations with more to come.

Poor form shown thus far, only seventh of 12 in novice hurdle (100/1) at Kelso (20.9f, good) 13 days ago. Hard to enthuse over.

Runner-up in point but (40/1) never-dangerous sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at Perth (20.2f, soft) on NH debut 6 days ago. One for the longer term.

Forecasts

Lalochezia (6/4), Itsnotyouitsme (13/8), Grange Ranger (11/4), Enemy At The Gate (22/1), Well Cliche (33/1), Don Brocco (50/1), Deep Charm (80/1), Daddyjacks Special (100/1), Arena Star (125/1), Pride Park (125/1)

Verdict

LALOCHEZIA shaped well on his hurdling bow when runner-up here recently and is taken to go one better at the chief expense of Grange Ranger who has shown a fairly useful level of form over fences and shouldn't be taken lightly now reverted to hurdles. Itsnotyouitsme also makes a quick switch back to this sphere having been pulled up on his chasing bow here and has the form to play a part too.
