At The Races App Form Study Handicap Chase

Off time: 16:30 | Winning time: 7m 6.60s

Mister Murchan^p¹⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: N F Houlihan⁽³⁾| T: R Rowe| OR: 100| C

8/1

Dipped well below last winning mark but has been out of sorts this term and addition of cheekpieces (retained here) at Kempton latest had little impact.

Form: 62-5P55

William Philo^b1¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: R Walford| OR: 92| C

5/6

Backed up brace of placed efforts over hurdles with very good third of 15 in handicap chase at Chepstow (23.6f, soft) 12 days ago, sticking to task. Blinkers now applied for first time and looks the one to beat,

Form: 3-5F233

The Boat^v1⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 82

8/1

Leicester winner (22.7f) in December but run poorly more recently and has plenty to prove at present. Visor on first time.

Form: 3-213P4

Wind Tor⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-9| J: Miss Chloe Emsley⁽⁷⁾| T: P Gundry| OR: 81

7/2

Dual winner at Exeter last season and returned to form when third of 9 in handicap at same course (24.2f, soft) 9 days ago. Remains fairly treated and holds solid claims.

Form: 3066P3

Bellamy's Grey⁸

Age: 11| Weight: 10-3| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: C J Gray| OR: 75

8/1

Unreliable sort who was pulled up over fences at Ffos Las in January and ran poorly over the smaller obstacles at Wincanton since. Hard to recommend.

Form: P4-53P7

Moroval^p¹⁴

Age: 12| Weight: 10-2| J: K Brogan| T: Tracey Leeson| OR: 71

50/1

Sprang a major surprise when 100/1 winner of 7-runner handicap chase at Southwell (24.3f) in November but hasn't been in same form either outing since and makes limited appeal from 3 lb out of the weights.

Form: P-9P1P5

Forecasts

William Philo (5/6), Wind Tor (7/2), Mister Murchan (8/1), Bellamy's Grey (8/1), The Boat (8/1), Moroval (50/1)

WILLIAM PHILO offered more in this sphere when third at Chepstow last month and is fancied to land the spoils. Wind Tor looks the likeliest danger.
