Fire Away^t¹⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-13| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 120| C

12/1

Added to his tally at Cartmel last May. Has struggled since (including remote fourth at Perth 17 days ago) but his yard has won the last 2 runnings of this race so he's worth keeping an eye on in the betting.

Aviewtosea^t²⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 119| D

5/2

Made it 3-4 over fences when seeing off 3 rivals over this trip at Worcester last September. Could easily be more to come for his good stable and leading claims on his return to action.

Form: 5P/1211-

Dog Of War^t⁸⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: Bridget Andrews| T: D Skelton| OR: 118| DWS

12/1

Triple chase winner but disappointing in 2 quick runs back from an absence in February. Has since undergone wind surgery. Would need to see market support to consider.

Form: 1213/6P-

Calipso Collonges^p,t³⁶

Age: 11| Weight: 11-10| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 117

10/1

Started last season with 2 decent efforts but he has questions to answer at present having pulled up on his last 2 outings.

Form: 33/35PP-

Jaytee^p²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: B S Hughes| T: Ian Williams| OR: 110

1/1

Has been running respectably over fences of late, though was off the bridle before most in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Wincanton on most recent outing. Brian Hughes in the saddle for the first time.

Form: 2/42445-

Dee Star^p,t¹⁸⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: K Brogan| T: G Hanmer| OR: 109| D

15/2

In fine form in the first half of last season, winning 3 times. Creditable second at Hexham when last seen in November. Player if ready to roll after 6 months off.

Forecasts

Jaytee (1/1), Aviewtosea (5/2), Dee Star (15/2), Calipso Collonges (10/1), Dog Of War (12/1), Fire Away (12/1)

AVIEWTOSEA progressed nicely over fences for Fergal O'Brien last summer and could take a bit of stopping if he's fully primed after his break. Dee Star is another who did very well last season and rates an obvious threat, while Fire Away has struggled lately but is well worth a betting check given Laura Morgan's good record in this race.
