1/1
Hasn't always looked straightforward, but has done little wrong since sent chasing, winning at Wincanton before finishing second in similar event at Ascot that has worked out. Set to go well.

5/2
Has quickly progressed over fences, off the mark at Plumpton (17f) in November while he might have followed up at Southwell but for losing momentum late on. Back from a break and worth considering.

Near-useful hurdler on his day and matched pick of his form on belated switch to chasing when third at Doncaster 3 weeks ago. Others here look to have more potential.

Been in good form in handicaps, both in this sphere and over hurdles, his jumping looking better over fences the last twice. Back against the novices here though and a couple of them could be useful.

10/1
Bumper/hurdles winner in 2019/2020. Yet to fully convince over fences, his Sandown effort possibly a flash in the pan judged on his poor run at Ludlow since. Blinkers reached for back from a break.

Forecasts

Amarillo Sky (1/1), Light N Strike (5/2), Goa Lil (7/1), Benny's Bridge (17/2), Son Of Camas (10/1)

Verdict

AMARILLO SKY is really motoring over fences and with the form of his Ascot second working out he looks the way to go. Light N Strike could have more in the locker and might be the danger.

  1. AMARILLO SKY (IRE)
  2. LIGHT N STRIKE (IRE)
  3. BENNY'S BRIDGE (IRE)
