3/1
Ex-Irish winning hurdler, but far from a natural chaser, failing to make much of an impact in 5 starts for present yard. Down in the weights back over timber and stable in excellent order.

Returned to form in first-time cheekpieces when third in big-field handicap at Catterick in December. Unable to fully build on that since but he is dropping in the weights.

Flat winner who showed fair form at best over hurdles in France. First encouraging signs when fifth over C&D last week and task is to now build on that.

9/2
Reacted well to blinkers when winning 16-runner handicap at Southwell (20.4f) in November. Never a factor in a deeper race at Uttoxeter 3 weeks later and off since, though that race did work out.

Still to get his head in front but got back on track when third at Market Rasen in November. Finished runner-up on his completed start in points after but just a fair effort at Newcastle.

Remains winless and arrives out form, for all he has been held up in steadily-run races of late.

Five-time winner on the Flat, but just 1-27 in this sphere and he has offered precious little in 3 starts since returning to action in December.

Forecasts

En Couleur (3/1), Chesterville (3/1), Kings Creek (4/1), Irish Sovereign (9/2), Burnage Boy (17/2), Ballyfarsoon (17/2), Balkotic (18/1)

Verdict

None of these look particularly solid but CHESTERVILLE won the last time he tackled hurdles and following a low-key spell chasing, he has dropped to a workable mark. Kings Creek and Irish Sovereign could be the main threats.
