9/4
Multiple hurdles/chase winner who has dropped a long way in the weights and showed more encouragement when fourth at Sothwell a month ago. Worth chancing in a weak affair.

Pair of chase wins in autumn 2021. Lightly raced since and beaten a long way out at Worcester last time. Blinkers tried after a short break.

8/1
Winning Irish pointer who failed to justify market prominence when well held on her chasing debut and was pulled up at Southwell subsequently, so arriives with a bit to prove.

5/1
Sketchy jumper of hurdles but fared a bit better when third at Worcester on chasing debut. Needs to build on that if she's to feature, though.

11/4
5/1, career best when winning 5-runner handicap chase at Fontwell (26f, good to firm) 83 days ago, pushed out. Both wins have come at that track but obvious claims if he returns from a break in the same form.

6/1
Successful twice in early 2022 but little to get excited about since, only sixth at Southwell last month. Others make more appeal.

Forecasts

Young Wolf (9/4), Toad Of Toad Hall (11/4), Joyful Kit (5/1), Lough Salt (6/1), Rebel Leader (7/1), Chitchat Sally (8/1)

Verdict

YOUNG WOLF is handicapped to win and showed a glimmer of promise when fourth at Southwell a month ago, so he's worth taking a chance on in a race that doesn't look like it will take much winning. Toad of Toad Hall was successful at Fontwell when last seen, so he's an obvious threat,, while Joyful Kit can't be completely dismissed.
