10/1
Dual 2m chase scorer but off 4 months before coming in a remote sixth at Sandown last time. Weighted to go well if shrugging off latest effort.

Made a winning start over fences at Ffos Las (2m) in October. Not in same form both starts since, however, and cheekpieces now go on with a bit to prove.

4/1
Fair 17f winning hurdler who hinted at promise on Hexham chase debut last time, not unduly punished. He's well worth another chance for in-form yard after a wind op.

Forecasts

Relkadam (11/4), Starvoski (10/3), Donladd (4/1), File Illico (9/2), Halcyon Days (6/1), Ballinsker (8/1), Boagrius (10/1)

Verdict

Most of these arrive with question marks against them, so it could be worth siding with DONLADD who has had a wind op since going with some promise on his chasing bow at Hexham and hails from a yard among the winners. Halcyon Days warrants respect on the back of his good Hexham second, with top-weight Boagrius weighted to have a say too if back on song.

  1. DONLADD (IRE)
  2. HALCYON DAYS
  3. BOAGRIUS (IRE)
