Jewson Mares' Handicap Chase

Productive last season, winning 3 times and filling the runner-up spot on same number of occasions, including at Cheltenham (26f) last month. Equally as good over this shorter trip and another bold show likely in first-time cheekpieces.

Well suited by quick ground when winning at Hereford in October and wasn't disgraced behind a classier rival there last time. Returns after winter break and may have more to come as a chaser.

Made frame on each of her last 3 starts, including in better race than she need contest at Haydock last month. On a winless run of 22 but can give another good account.

Produced a career-best to score at Leicester in March and was unsuited by the drop to 17f when mid-field at Sedgefield last time. Substance of her last win looks questionable and bit of improvement likely needed.

Capitalised on falling mark to get off the mark for this yard at Sedgefield last time, very much aided by the way the race developed. Up 3 lb and still well treated on Irish form, but this is likely to take more winning.
