Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 117| D

50/1

One-time useful chaser but on the decline and well held over hurdles when last seen in June.

Form: 363U-30

For Jim^p²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 115| C| D

28/1

Enjoying a fine season, again showing a good attitude to score narrowly at Hexham. Shaped like a non-stayer there (32f) next time and type to bounce back.

Form: 51211P

Red Lion Lad^t1²⁸⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| OR: 115WS

4/1

€155,000 buy after winning sole outing in Irish points. Best effort over hurdles when third in Chepstow maiden in February. Step up in trip will suit now chasing. Tongue tied for handicap debut.

Form: 1/363-

Clondaw Promise^p²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 115

9/2

Fitted with cheekpieces prior to an encouraging second on chase debut here (3m) and duly built on that when off the mark with a bit in hand at Lingfield 4 weeks ago. Capable of better again.

Form: 92-3621

Rocheston²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: J J Burke| T: T R George| OR: 113

14/1

Fairly useful winner at 19f over hurdles. Respectable start over fences in the summer but below par at Worcester on return.

Form: 14P-435

Mille Sussurri³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: H Fry| OR: 112| D

3/1

Patchy profile over hurdles, though positive start over fences when runner-up at Hereford on return, pulling clear of rest. Open to improvement and shortlist material.

Form: 2/142P-2

Miss Jeanne Moon²⁰⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: S Bowen| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 112| BF

9/1

Low-mileage mare who made a winning return/handicap debut at Fontwell (19f) last season. Respectable start to chasing when second of 4 at Bangor in May, no chance with winner. Entitled to improve.

Form: 3/13P3-2

Enrichissant^t1³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Paul O'Brien| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 112

20/1

Off the mark over fences in good style at Huntingdon (19.8f) in February 2020. Ended last season in disappointing fashion, however, and soon beaten at Lingfield on return. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Form: 434P6-P

College Oak^p1⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Page Fuller| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 110| C

40/1

Dual winning hurdler last season but failed to beat a rival switched to fences both starts this term. Headgear now applied.

Form: 1933-38

Age: 11| Weight: 11-0| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Mrs R Gasson| OR: 103| CD

100/1

Won 4 times in 2018/19 but not seen since well held at Warwick nearly 2 years ago.

Form: 1315F7/

Entre Deux^t²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Nick Scholfield| T: P Henderson| OR: 98

33/1

Irish point winner. Off 7 months, shaped as if needing the run when fifth on 21f Newton Abbot chase/handicap debut but well held at Lingfield next time.

Form: 0664-55

Supervisor²⁹³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 96

10/3

Improved on his hurdles debut when second at Hereford (19.7f) but below that level next 2 starts, including when pulled up on handicap bow. Off 9 months. Makes chase debut.

Form: 547/24P-

Forecasts

Mille Sussurri (3/1), Supervisor (10/3), Red Lion Lad (4/1), Clondaw Promise (9/2), Miss Jeanne Moon (9/1), Rob The Getaway (12/1), Rocheston (14/1), Lord Bryan (14/1), Enrichissant (20/1), For Jim (28/1), Entre Deux (33/1), College Oak (40/1), Kayf Adventure (50/1), Irish Octave (100/1)

MILLE SUSSURRI made a promising start to his chase career when beaten only by a subsequent winner at Hereford on return and is taken to go one better off 1 lb lower with improvement on the cards. Clondaw Promise is another who has taken well to this sphere and is the obvious threat having won with a bit in hand at Lingfield, while Red Lion Lad is an interesting chasing debutant.
