In fine form here this term, landing a second 2m handicap chase last week, coming clear easily under this rider. Longer trip fine and good claims under penalty back against the novices.

Went close in a maiden hurdle at Market Rasen in May but has failed to reproduce that level of form since, including over fences the last twice, never really threatening here last month.

Well held in bumper/4 races over hurdles. Mark has dipped ahead of chase debut and yard has done well with similar types. Tongue tie on and she's worth a look.

Shaped as if retaining all his ability after 18 months off at Uttoxeter 6 weeks ago. Good chance he'll come on for that fitness-wise and wouldn't dismiss on chase bow given he's a point winner.

5/2
Opened account over fences in similar event over C&D in December. Good second over 25f on New Year's Day then found things happening too quickly back in trip at Wetherby 6 weeks ago. In the mix.

Maiden who continues to fall in the weights without showing much sign of taking advantage. Headgear goes on.

Forecasts

Da Vinci Hand (11/8), Spot On Soph (5/2), Highate Hill (10/3), Cool Country (12/1), Who's The Guv'nor (22/1), The Sumba Island (25/1)

Verdict

DA VINCI HAND has thrived at Catterick this winter and can follow up last week's victory back up in trip. The Sumba Island is very interesting going over fences for Laura Morgan after a nudge from the handicapper. Spot On Soph is another who has tasted success here this term and should be in the hunt.

  1. Da Vinci Hand11/8
  2. The Sumba Island25/1
  3. Spot On Soph5/2
