At The Races App Form Study Handicap Chase

Improved when second on handicap/chase bow at Chepstow (19.4f) in March. Undone by a couple of errors at Newton Abbot but back on the up when 4 lengths second of 10 to Safe Destination at Uttoxeter on return. 5 lb better off with winner here.

Dual winner at Fakenham last season. Below form when last seen but type to bounce back if ready to go after 6 months off.

Modest maiden hurdler who has bettered that level over fences, winning handicap chases at Hereford and Market Rasen in early-2022. Mixed record last campaign, though, so bit to prove on return.

Improved model in handicap hurdles and bred to make at least as good a chaser but has been off the track for 19 months.

Only one of the trio to show his form when off the mark in 3-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (25.7f, soft, 2/1) when last seen in April. More needed here up 5 lb.

Offered bits of promise in maiden/novice hurdles and made winning chase bow at the second attempt at Uttoxeter (24f, soft) 25 days ago by 4 lengths from Kap Chidley, responding well. Scope for better still if he can brush up his jumping.

Poor form over hurdles and not much solid form over fences. Others preferred.

Decent second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (23.1f, heavy) when last seen in March but failed to complete both starts over fences last season so bit to prove back in this sphere on return.

One win from 22 NH runs. Eleven runs since last win in 2020. 6/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap chase at Huntingdon (23.6f, good to soft), having run of race. Off 6 months. Should be on the premises if tuned up.

Remains a maiden following 15 starts overall and his form went the wrong way on his last 3 starts in 2022/23, pulled up twice before finishing well held on his latest outing in April. Out of the weights so has enough to prove on his return.

Unreliable individual who stopped the slide to some extent when fourth of 6 in handicap chase (28/1) at Fontwell (21.6f, good) 53 days ago but remains opposable. 6 lb out of handicap.
