South Wales Medical Event Cover Handicap Chase

Won 4 handicaps (at up to 24.3f) for Philip Hobbs in 2021 and ran creditably when last seen at Kempton 13 months ago. Now with Peter Bowen and returns on a workable mark. Cheekpieces back on. Worth a second look in the market.

Run creditably in defeat over hurdles this term but failed to complete both starts in this sphere and makes limited appeal.

Hurdles winner who left his chase bow well behind when just failing at this course (23.8f) last month. Below par at Uttoxeter since but could well bounce back here.

Capitalised on a much-reduced mark when landing a Uttoxeter handicap chase (26f) last June. Largely below that level since but offered more the last twice (latest over hurdles) and could be a player.

Fair maiden over hurdles and ran to similar level when 2¾ lengths third of 6 to Robyndzone in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, good to soft) on debut over fences 19 days ago. Claims if building on that in first-time cheekpieces.

Successful off 8 lb higher at Uttoxeter in November 2021 but nowhere near that level since returning from 15-month absence, beaten a long way when fourth at Exeter latest.

Point winner who improved on hurdles form to make a successful debut over fences at Catterick (25.3f) in December and ran creditably when fourth at this course (23.8f) the following month. Not been in same form since, however.

Returned to form when taking 6-runner handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, good to soft) 19 days ago, driven out. 4 lb rise fair and another bid is on the cards.

Fairly useful winner in bumpers but just modest form in 4 starts over hurdles and remains to be seen if switch to chasing brings about improvement.

Off the mark over fences at Uttoxeter (24f) in October and backed that up with good third in Worcester handicap (23f). Given a break since disappointing over hurdles subsequently and can't be ruled out.
