11/4

Landed a Plumpton maiden (20.5f) last winter and back to winning ways with cheekpieces added (retained) when taking a 3¼m Fontwell handicap (Raddon Top third) last month. Should remain competitive after a 3 lb rise.

Form: 55-2661

4/6

Progressive form in handicaps, readily landing a third win of the campaign at Southwell 93m) 5 days ago. 7 lb penalty doesn't look enough to stop him if showing up in similar form.

7/2

Pretty useful chaser in France. More like it for this yard when runner-up over hurdles at Wincanton (3m) last month. Claims if a lesser run at Ffos Las since is forgiven.

Forecasts

Hillview (4/6), Game Socks (11/4), D'jango (7/2), Raddon Top (4/1), Get Prepared (11/2)

HILLVIEW had plenty in hand at Southwell on Tuesday and a 7 lb penalty doesn't look enough to stop him if showing up here in a similar mood. Game Socks was back on song when defeating Raddon Top at Fontwell and can give Gary Hanmer's charge most to do.
