Sublime Heights^p1²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 12-2| J: James Bowen| T: T Lawes| OR: 102

10/3

Point winner but yet to score under Rules and has been disappointing over fences so far. Cheekpieces now tried.

Form: 6PF22-4

Stanley Pincombe³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 12-1| J: J E Moore| T: C Gordon| OR: 101

7/2

Fair winner at 16f over hurdles but below that level on chase debut at Fontwell 30 days ago and makes limited appeal.

Form: 43100-3

En Coeur^t¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: M G Nolan| T: J W Mullins| OR: 89| C

11/4

Course winner who was returning from 5 months off and wind op when second of 3 in handicap chase at Fontwell (17.8f, good, 9/4) 12 days ago. Should go well again.

Form: 2233-42

Counteract¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: T J O'Brien| T: Miss S Smith| OR: 88| CD

12/1

Winner of first 2 starts in this sphere in March/April 2021 but pulled up when returning from an 11-month absence over this C&D in April and tailed off at Stratford recently.

Form: 14/28P-4

Bolsover Bill^p,t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Henry Brooke| T: W Greatrex| OR: 87

4/1

Run creditably last twice, latest when second of 7 in handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Races off same mark and merits consideration.

Form: 774322

Between The Waters^p,t³⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 10-8| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 80| D

17/2

No impact in 2 hurdles this summer but down to a career-low mark, got up late to score back over the larger obstacles at Southwell (20.4f) last month. Should go well again.

Form: 33P-7P1

Churchtown Glen^b¹³⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: Miss M P Bryant| OR: 80| D

25/1

Well below par latest and sole success came back in 2018. Blinkers back on. Others preferred.

Form: 462-345

Forecasts

En Coeur (11/4), Sublime Heights (10/3), Stanley Pincombe (7/2), Bolsover Bill (4/1), Between The Waters (17/2), Counteract (12/1), Clondaw Robin (14/1), Churchtown Glen (25/1), Kenyan Cowboy (33/1)

BETWEEN THE WATERS hasn't been harshly treated by the handicapper for last month's Southwell victory and may be able to follow up. Bolsover Bill and En Coeur can also make their presence felt.
