El Paso Wood^b,t⁴^{(ex 7)}

Age: 8| Weight: 12-4| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| OR: 117

5/1

Heavily campaigned since joining this yard from France and gained his second win for the stable in 4-runner handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f, good) 4 days ago. More work to do under penalty.

Form: 756221

Dazzling Glory²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Tristan Durrell⁽⁵⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 120| D

7/4

Has taken well to chasing and got off the mark over fences in clear-cut fashion at Fontwell last month. Up 6 lb (rider's claim also dropped from 7 to 5 lb) but further progress can't be ruled out.

Form: 3PF-321

Tedham⁴⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 115| C

9/4

Confirmed his return to form when winning 5-runner handicap chase at this course (24f, good to soft) 47 days ago, well on top finish. That was a career-best effort and he should go close in follow-up bid.

Form: P/P50-21

Mance Rayder^b²³⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Danny McMenamin| T: H Hogarth| OR: 115| D

33/1

Underwhelming efforts on his last 2 outings and arrives with fair bit to prove after a near 8-month break, though is now below last winning mark.

Form: 34U266-

Kabrit^h⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: J J Burke| T: A Ralph| OR: 105| C

7/2

Course winner. Not disgraced on form when fourth of 12 in handicap chase at Worcester (23f, good) last week but looked hard work. Hood now reapplied.

Form: 25-3264

Forecasts

Dazzling Glory (7/4), Tedham (9/4), Kabrit (7/2), El Paso Wood (5/1), Mance Rayder (33/1)

DAZZLING GLORY didn't end up with much to beat at Fontwell but she may still have a bit in hand from the assessor, despite a 6 lb rise, and is taken to strike again. Tedham confirmed his return to form when scoring here last time and rates the main threat. El Paso Wood is best of the rest.
