5/2

Impressive winner on first go over fences at Stratford (20.9f) in October. Let down by jumping next 2 starts but back on track when scoring at Exeter on New Year's Day. Remains of interest.

Form: 3-31FF1

Mahon Point³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 120

3/1

Novice hurdle winner at Chepstow and better form when runner-up at Ludlow in November. Fell before the race took shape on chase debut at Taunton last month and this will reveal a lot more.

Form: 5/131-2F

Dibble Decker^p1⁸⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Stan Sheppard| T: T Lacey| OR: 118| C

4/1

Scored twice over hurdles last season but hasn't made the brightest of starts over fences, turned over when favourite for a 3-runner affair at Market Rasen before struggling at Chepstow. Back up in trip with headgear applied.

Form: 1219-25

Feuille De Lune^h,t²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 111| D

9/2

Won last 4 starts in points and also made a successful start under Rules in 25f Cheltenham hunter in April. Remote fourth dropped markedly in trip on this first start for this yard at Hereford on return but remains with potential on handicap bow.

Form: 1111-14

Ozzie Man⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽⁵⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 108| BF| D

9/2

Winner of sole start between the flags and made it 2-2 in this sphere when landing a 4-runner Lingfield handicap upped to 23.5f in November. Sound third off revised mark at Plumpton (25.7f) since but drop back in trip is a worry.

Form: 23/2-113

Forecasts

Sheldon (5/2), Mahon Point (3/1), Dibble Decker (4/1), Ozzie Man (9/2), Feuille De Lune (9/2), Everything'sontick (9/2), Hidor De Bersy (13/2)

SHELDON got firmly back on track when resuming winning ways at Exeter on New Year's Day and can defy a 4 lb rise. Hidor de Bersy is worth another chance to confirm chase bow promise and is next best.
