Fearless Action²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Sean Quinlan| T: C Grant| OR: 98

7/2

Runner-up twice over hurdles last winter, including here. His 2 comeback runs at this venue last month were underwhelming but he could still be building up his fitness after his absence. Makes chase debut.

Form: 7226-47

Gandhi Maker²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Ross Chapman| T: W Coltherd| OR: 95

13/8

Irish point winner who bounced back from a couple of poor runs when winning at Newcastle 23 days ago, proving well suit by a positive ride dropped back to 2m. Raised 6 lb but he's unexposed at this trip and his yard won this race last year.

Form: 7-P25P1

Dondiam^t1²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 93

5/2

Point winner who travelled well for a long way when 4 lengths fourth in 2m Fakenham handicap on his completed start over fences. Likely capable of better and a major player here.

Form: 635-6F4

Magic Mike^h²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Craig Nichol| T: Paul Robson| OR: 84

7/1

Made frame second start in points and Irish bumper efforts for John Halley also weren't devoid of promise. Has cut little ice in novice hurdles for this yard, but given that point background it wouldn't be a shock were he to make more of an impact now handicap chasing.

Form: 6568B7

Lucky Robin²⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 10-12| J: Henry Brooke| T: B Ellison| OR: 82| CD

10/1

Let down by jumping on the whole over fences, pulling up over 19f here last month. Headgear off. Mark continues to fall but he has a bit to prove at present.

Form: 3PF64P

Forecasts

Gandhi Maker (13/8), Dondiam (5/2), Fearless Action (7/2), Magic Mike (7/1), Lucky Robin (10/1)

GANDHI MAKER proved well suited by a positive ride dropped to 2m last time and might be up to defying a rise in the weights. The unexposed Dondiam impressed with the way he travelled for a long way at Fakenham and is the one likely to give Stuart Coltherd's charge most to do.
