11/2
Headstrong sort who bagged a trio of handicap chases at Newton Abbot in 2022, the latest from a 1 lb lower mark in September. Probably needed the outing after looking too fresh at Warwick (20f, good to soft) a month ago but has a bit to prove.

11/4
Improved for a change of headgear to open account over fences at Hereford (20.9f) in March and having failed to stay longer trip at Plumpton (25.7f), got back to winning ways at Fontwell (21.6f, good to soft) last month. Hit hard by the handicapper but should go well again.

11/10
Fair hurdler/chaser who arrives here on the back of a couple of runner-up efforts under attacking rides last month, latest at Newton Abbot. Ought to be in the shake-up with Cobden taking over in the plate.

9/2
Has taken really well to chasing, landing handicaps at Newton Abbot/Exeter in April. Faded out of things late on when third at former course next time and was a fortunate winner when finishing alone at Southwell (20.4f) 10 days ago, left alone before 2 out. Sound claims once again.

Forecasts

Across The Line (11/10), Pawpaw (11/4), Begin The Luck (9/2), Romanor (11/2)

Verdict

PAWPAW resumed winning ways at Fontwell last month in the style of one who'll continue to go well (eased considerably close home) so, despite being hit hard by the handicapper, David Bridgewater's 6-y-o is fancied to notch a third success over the larger obstacles. Begin The Luck can edge out Across The Line for second place.

  1. Pawpaw11/4
  2. Begin The Luck9/2
  3. Across The Line11/10
