Veteran chaser who ran poorly at Bangor on return 5 weeks ago, though capable of making his presence felt on last season's form.
|
Useful chaser in 2018/19 for Phillip Hobbs but just the one decent effort the following season and not seen under Rules since (won first 3 starts in points, placed all 3 starts since (latest Jan 9).
|
Stormed to victory in Grand Sefton over National fences in 2019. Not at that level nowadays but capitalised on drop in grade in this headgear when taking hunter at Ludlow last month. Big shout again.
|
Winless since 2018 but proved he retains plenty of ability when runner-up at Aintree on return and in a C&D amateurs event. Heavy ground a possible excuse here since. Bold bid expected on these terms.

Forecasts
Hogan's Height (15/8), Rolling Dylan (2/1), Diplomate Sivola (7/2), Ballycross (9/2)
HOGAN'S HEIGHT beat a couple of other useful chasers when winning a hunter at Ludlow 4 weeks ago and this looks a good opportunity for him to follow up. Rolling Dylan is the obvious threat judged on this season's efforts.
