Cambion Supports Ronald McDonald House Handicap Chase

Off time: 15:37 | Winning time: 5m 12.2s

Fat Sam⁴⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: James Davies| T: C J Down| OR: 120| BF| D

7/2

Fell eighth in handicap chase at Newton Abbot (21f, good) 44 days ago. Sort to bounce back so he's a player off a handy-looking mark.

Form: 336-32F

Getaway Luv^p,t¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Lizzie Quinlan| OR: 115

5/1

Scored at Cartmel in July but saw his run of good form halted when only fourth of 6 in handicap chase here (16f, good) 14 days ago. Back up in trip now and still enters calculations.

Form: P-54124

Inishbiggle^p1,t⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: K Brogan| T: G Hanmer| OR: 115| CD

11/1

Emphatic winner of 19.3f Catterick handicap hurdle in February 2022. Failed to convince as a chaser so far though and pulled up on the back of breathing surgery at Stratford last time. Cheekpieces are reached for now.

Form: 21/P-F3P

Trapista^v²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 112| D

3/1

Winning hurdler who is proving expensive to follow in this sphere but she was a creditable second in a first-time visor at Stratford (17f, good) 20 days ago. Can give another good account off a 2 lb lower mark.

Form: 35-4242

Creative Control¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 108| D

9/2

Chase winner last season. Out of sorts in the spring but took a step back in the right direction after a wind op when sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (20f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Much respected back over fences.

Form: 222P7-6

Friary Rock^t,v²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 106| D

7/1

Made a winning return at Perth (2m4f) in May and not discredited after a 9-week break when fading third of 7 in handicap chase at Fontwell (21.6f, good) 20 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Can take a step forward.

Form: 42-1343

Mrs Kinsella⁸³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: C J Todd| T: R Potter| OR: 87

9/1

Placed 3 times since April, most recently when good third of 10 to Fabreze in handicap hurdle here (19.9f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Much respected now going over fences despite being 7 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 37-52P3

Forecasts

Trapista (3/1), Fat Sam (7/2), Creative Control (9/2), Getaway Luv (5/1), Friary Rock (7/1), Mrs Kinsella (9/1), Inishbiggle (11/1)

FAT SAM figures on a good mark so is well worth siding with to bounce back in style from his Newton Abbot exit. Getaway Luv could emerge as the chief threat if, as expected, returning to form after a rare blip here last month, although both Trapista and Creative Control could have a say too in an open handicap.
