Useful chaser at his best for Henry de Bromhead but well held both starts over hurdles for new yard so plenty to prove back chasing.
|
Useful chaser who proved all the sharper for a comeback run over hurdles when taking advantage of reduced mark back over fences at Wincanton 6 weeks ago. Only 2 lb higher here so obvious claims.
|
Scored twice over fences in 2019/20 and given a considerate ride having been off track for 14 months at Wetherby. Made a bad mistake at Haydock next time so worth another chance to build on comeback.
|
Useful handicap chaser for Colin Tizzard at his peak and big step back in the right direction when second over C&D. Disappointed over hurdles next time but not taken lightly back chasing.
|
Pair of handicap chase wins this term and no disgrace in being unable to live with a smart prospect at Haydock last time. Likely to give another good account.
|
Resumed winning ways in a 4-runner contest over C&D in December. Good placed efforts next 2 starts, second of 6 in handicap chase at Fakenham (16.3f, soft, 5/2) 34 days ago. Tongue strap back on.
|
Won a 2m Catterick handicap for the second year running in December. Creditable 2¾ lengths third to Another Crick at Wincanton since and 2 lb better off now. Tongue strap on 1st time.
|
Useful hurdler at peak and opened account over fences from reduced mark at Chepstow on heavy last month. Quickly back to form when second at Uttoxeter last week and claims if this not too soon.
|
Dual handicap chase winner at Bangor/Doncaster last winter but yet to fire from 3 starts this season so bit to prove.

Forecasts
Another Crick (15/8), The Russian Doyen (5/1), Casa Tall (6/1), Out On The Tear (7/1), Katpoli (15/2), Le Ligerien (17/2), Doukarov (11/1), Est Illic (25/1), Jan Maat (50/1)
ANOTHER CRICK cashed in on some oddly generous handicapping at Wincanton 6 weeks ago and remains of interest up only 2 lb. The thriving Casa Tall is next best ahead of Out On The Tear, who finished 2¾ lengths behind the selection at Wincanton and is 2 lb better off here.
