Zoffee¹⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 125

15/8

Didn't need to improve to land Exeter maiden chase in October. Deficiencies in the jumping department have proved to be his Achilles' heel since, but obvious chance in this small field all the same.

Form: 214P63-

Vision Des Flos^t¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: H Cobden| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 125

5/4

It's been a while since he showed something akin to his best form (smart chaser a couple of seasons back), but mark continues to tumble and a race of this nature may well be within reach.

Form: 50-0335

Paseo^p³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: D A Jacob| T: O Sherwood| OR: 109

11/4

Just the one success from 11 hurdles starts. Still, his sole previous run over fences was not without encouragement and resumes in this sphere on an attractive mark.

Form: 992-554

Forecasts

Vision Des Flos (5/4), Zoffee (15/8), Paseo (11/4)

This could be between VISION DES FLOS and Zoffee, though Paseo can't be discounted now bypassing Newton Abbot on Tuesday. Though clearly not the horse he once was, Colin Tizzard's charge has slipped to a dangerously low mark and gets a tentative nod.
