3/1
Unreliable type but he posted a career best when easily winning 2m handicap chase at Worcester (5/1) 20 days ago. Back up 8 lb but still weighted to go close if in the same mood.

Modest winning hurdler who arrives in decent nick, fifth in 2m handicap here 39 days ago. Much respected now going over fences.

Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. Keeping on in fourth when unseated rider last in handicap chase over C&D on his debut over fences 39 days ago. Not ruled out.

11/4
Yet to get his head in front but he's knocking on the door, second of 4 in 2m handicap chase at Fakenham 37 days ago. Player off an unchanged mark.

14/1
Poor maiden hurdler for Paul Henderson who came in last of 7 in handicap at Plumpton (25f) when last seen out 6 months ago. Makes chase debut for new yard after a wind op with lots to prove.

Winless over hurdles since 2020, but he comes here in good order, so she can't be discounted on her belated chasing bow.

Forecasts

Imperial Joe (5/2), Passing Secrets (11/4), Arizona Glory (3/1), Miss M (4/1), Mr P (14/1), Demothi (20/1)

Verdict

A weakly-contested chase in which PASSING SECRETS looks to have been found a good opportunity to open his account after a run of near misses. Arizona Glory isn't the most reliable of chasers but is still feared most on the back of his Worcester victory. Chasing-debutante Miss M has been in good nick over hurdles so needs considering too.
