Racing Partnership Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Chase

Off time: 12:40 | Winning time: 6m 43.19s

Sackett^v1¹⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Kai Lenihan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: N B King| OR: 100| CD

9/1

Fairly useful chaser at best who regained winning thread at Fakenham (3m) in March. However, enthusiasm for the game has completely disappeared judged on this season's efforts. Headgear on.

Form: 13-PP6P

Bill And Barn¹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Kevin Jones| T: M F Harris| OR: 100| D

9/4

Had been shown further respite by the handicapper when finally opening his account over fences at Plumpton 2 weeks ago and this looks a good opportunity for the follow up.

Form: FP4/231

Rebel Leader^t³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Cillin Leonard⁽³⁾| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 99| D

3/1

Showed improved form to get off the mark at Perth (20.1f, good to soft) and followed up off 4 lb higher at Stratford. Can go well again.

Form: 582311

Dubai Guest^b,t⁶⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Fergus Gregory⁽³⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 88

7/4

Bumper winner who went close in a Hereford handicap hurdle in January. Has failed to reproduce that level of form since, though better for chase bow/return when fourth at Worcester. Not taken lightly.

Form: 2405-94

Scottsdale³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Mark Galligan⁽⁵⁾| T: P Winks| OR: 74

14/1

Runner-up on second chase start at Uttoxeter (3m) in June but that very much a standout effort in recent seasons.

Form: P0-P2P0

Forecasts

Dubai Guest (7/4), Bill And Barn (9/4), Rebel Leader (3/1), Sackett (9/1), Scottsdale (14/1)

BILL AND BARN hasn't been with his current yard long and he finally opened his account over fences at Plumpton under this rider 2 weeks ago. A 5 lb rise doesn't look insurmountable and he could get the run of things again. Hat-trick seeking Rebel Leader is the obvious threat.
