6/5

Useful hurdler in 2018/19. Lightly raced since but returned to chasing with a win here (20f) in July. Runner-up at Uttoxeter next time and was getting on top when falling last over C&D 33 days ago.

Form: 4/0-712F

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: J J Burke| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 131| D

3/1

Proved as good as ever when winning handicap hurdle at Warwick (26f) in February. Good placed efforts over both sets of obstacles after. Off 155 days and has since left Dan Skelton.

Aimee De Sivola¹⁵⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: David Noonan| T: Nick Williams| OR: 124| BF

15/2

Disappointed at Warwick when last seen in April but the emphasis on speed didn't suit and had previously looked better than ever when winning at Newton Abbot. Chase debut.

Form: 3/84214-

Present Chief¹⁵⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 123| C| D

13/2

Improved when switched to handicaps last term, benefitting from the step up in trip when winning at Uttoxeter/Warwick. However, below par last 2 starts after 3 months off. Chase debut. Off 155 days.

Form: 114308-

Canyon City¹¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: J M Quinlan| T: N B King| OR: 123| D

13/2

Best effort for a while when fourth in handicap hurdle at Haydock but failed to build on that promise both starts since. Didn't look a natural on debut in this sphere at Fakenham back in October.

Form: 5P84-64

Forecasts

Thistle Do Nicely (6/5), Supremely Lucky (3/1), Canyon City (13/2), Present Chief (13/2), Aimee De Sivola (15/2)

THISTLE DO NICELY would have made it 2 wins from his last 3 starts over fences but for a heavy fall at the last over this C&D last month and can make amends if over that experience. Supremely Lucky ended last season in good form and is feared most starting out for Charlie Longsdon.
