Champ Royal^p,t¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: H Cobden| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 98

9/2

Opened his account over hurdles at Worcester (23f) in July. Well held third at Bangor since but starts out over fences in a winnable contest and Harry Cobden does the steering.

Form: 5-6P513

Our Brother John^t1³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Mrs Izzie Hill⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs L Hill| OR: 96

7/2

Showed a bit when reaching the frame in a pair of novice hurdles in July and this winning pointer may do better now handicap chasing over further. Also tongue tied first time. Interesting runner.

Form: PP/13-34

Reign Suepreme^p⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: Shane Quinlan⁽³⁾| T: Mrs N S Evans| OR: 81

10/1

Point winner but is a long-standing maiden under Rules. Was close up when unseating 3 out at Stratford (27.5f) last week but he's no good thing to show up in similar form this afternoon.

Form: 33-53PU

He Is A Cracker^t³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Isabelle Ryder⁽¹⁰⁾| T: G Brown| OR: 77| BF

15/8

Has returned from a 15-month absence with 3 creditable placed efforts this summer. runner-up back at chasing at Uttoxeter (3m) 5 weeks ago. Likely to be in the shake-up again.

Form: 320/232

Chitchat Sally^t,v⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 77

20/1

Winning Irish pointer. Has failed to make a significant impact over fences for her new yard lately, but it's possible her stamina was stretched over 27.5f at Stratford last time and her mark continues to fall.

Form: 124P66

Janeslittlevoice⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-4| J: James Best| T: Ella Pickard| OR: 74

7/2

Poor maiden hurdler but did show she can be competitive from her basement mark when runner-up on her 21.5f course chase debut last week. Needs to show she can build on that now stepping back up in trip.

Form: 84P/U52

Forecasts

He Is A Cracker (15/8), Janeslittlevoice (7/2), Our Brother John (7/2), Champ Royal (9/2), Reign Suepreme (10/1), Chitchat Sally (20/1)

HE IS A CRACKER has run well to be placed on all 3 attempts over fences and is the percentage call, although chase newcomers Champ Royal and Our Brother John, who has a point win to his name, could pose big threats if taking to this new discipline.
