16/5

Some fair efforts to his name over timber but had started to lose his way, pulled up on his last two outings. Ran to only a modest level when third of 4 at Fontwell (17.8f) on chase debut in March.

8/1

Course winner who was quickly back to form in 2 C&D handicaps in February/March. Respectable effort back here 21 days ago. Can give his running again.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Craig Nichol| T: M Todhunter| OR: 92| CD

5/2

After 6 months off and another breathing operation, finally opened his account in handicap over C&D last month. A 3 lb rise for that success looks manageable and he can quickly gain his second win.

Tongue strap on when bagging handicap chase at Newcastle (16.3f) in November by 9½ lengths. Back up in the weights, respectable fourth at the same course (20.1f) last time. More needed.

Forecasts

First Revolution (5/2), Gosuatri (3/1), Blueberg (16/5), Six One Nine (7/2), Lucky Robin (8/1), Rann Of Kutch (8/1)

It took a while for FIRST REVOLUTION to get off the mark, but he won well over C&D 21 days ago so might not have to wait long for his second success. A 3 lb rise looks to be fair so he can follow up for his in-form trainer. The hat-trick seeking Gosuatri is feared most, with course-winner Lucky Robin completing the shortlist.
