Opened his account following a breathing op in Chepstow handicap hurdle (19.4f) in January. Respectable third at Sandown next time but ran below form switched to chasing at Taunton latest.

Well on top at the finish when opening Rules account in 23.5f handicap chase at Lingfield in December. Well held a month later but bounced back to form when third there (28.8f) 33 days ago.

Point winner who got off the mark at the third attempt over fences at Wetherby in January, jumping well and showing a willing attitude. Disappointing at Market Rasen since and visor now fitted.

Sixteen runs since last win in 2019 and ran poorly under a change of rider when pulled up before 5 out in handicap chase at this course (26.2f, soft, 12/1) 44 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Got off the mark under Rules in 11-runner handicap chase at this course (26.2f, soft) 22 days ago, easily. A 10 lb rise may not prevent the follow up.

Showed improved form to get off the mark in first-time cheekpieces in 11-runner handicap here (26.2f) 22 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Hit with 14 lb rise but still may have more to offer.

Forecasts

Gats And Co (6/5), Thomas Patrick (11/2), Mr Katanga (6/1), Straight Swap (7/1), Poldark Cross (8/1), Bring The Action (9/1), Jean Genie (11/1), Colonel Keating (16/1), Petite Power (25/1)

Verdict

GATS AND CO wasn't fully extended to draw readily clear here 22 days ago, so a 10 lb higher mark looks within range. Thomas Patrick is potentially well treated now, while Mr Katanga may have more to offer as a chaser.
