Sole success came here (24f) back in December 2021 and more lows than highs since. Can go well fresh, however, and no surprise to see him play a part from a career-low mark over fences.
|
Scored at this course (24f) in April of 2022 but he's been out of sorts over hurdles and fences since and has plenty to prove on return to action.
|
Modest maiden hurdler who bettered that level over fences in 2022, winning handicaps at Hereford and Market Rasen over this sort of trip. Mixed record last campaign, though, and others more appealing.
|
Gained two 3m chase wins in May 2022 but largely struggled since and makes limited appeal despite showing a little more at Bangor last month.
|
Landed a gamble on just his second start over fences at Uttoxeter and impressive when following up at Chepstow (26.2f, good to soft) in February. Back to form, after 4 months off, when creditable third of 8 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (26.9f, soft) 16 days ago and is one of likelier contenders.
|
Took a sizable step forward when scoring over hurdles here (21f) in February and backed that up when close second at Carlisle next time. Should come on from his chasing debut/return at Plumpton in September and is not out of things.
|
Remote second on his Worcester hurdle debut in October 2021 and well held both starts later that season. Not seen for 21 months but has experience in points and stable can have them ready after a lengthy absence. Worth a check in the market on handicap chase bow.
|
Well handicapped on old form and posted respectable placed efforts in both starts this season. Others more persuasive for win purposes, though.
|
Front runner who took well to fences last term, winning at Leicester (22.5f) and Market Rasen (23.9f) and acquitting himself well in defeat on final 2 outings. Fairly treated on return and will be dangerous if fully tuned up.
|
Offered bits of promise in maiden/novice hurdles and opened account at the second attempt in this sphere when taking Uttoxeter handicap (24f, soft) last month, responding well. Scope for better still if he can brush up his jumping.
|
Ran with promise when placed on first 2 chase starts last winter but rather went backwards thereafter and has bit to prove on reappearance here.
|
Temperamental sort who has been largely disappointing over hurdles and fences since his last win in November 2020. Best watched.
|
Left hurdles form well behind, on return from 18-month absence, when 6¾ lengths third of 10 to Safe Destination in handicap at Uttoxeter (24f, soft) on debut over fences 30 days ago. Entitled to build on that and is one for shortlist.
|
Career best when winning 12-runner handicap chase at Lingfield (23.5f) in February but not in anything like the same form either start subsequently and makes limited appeal on return here.
|
Decent second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (23.1f) when last seen in March but failed to complete both starts over fences last season so comes with risks attached on return to chasing. Had wind operation.
|
Well beaten in bumpers/hurdles and made a low-key start over fences when distant fourth of 10 to Safe Destination in handicap at Uttoxeter (24f, soft) 30 days ago. Cheekpieces now tried.
|
Unreliable individual who ran no sort of race on return from 3 months off at Wincanton recently. Blinkers now tried but is readily opposed.
|
Off the mark over fences in a weak-looking event at Uttoxeter (24f) in summer of 2021 and clearly had his problems since, restricted to just 2 runs and made little impact in either.

Forecasts
Safe Destination (11/4), Dreams Of Diamonds (4/1), Imperial Alex (15/2), Percy Veering (10/1), Ali Star Bert (12/1), Mixedwave (14/1), His Oscar (14/1), Pemberley (14/1), Faitque De L'Isle (16/1), Felton Bellevue (18/1), Bob Bank (18/1), Daranova (20/1), Patient Owner (20/1), Twilight Glory (28/1), Versatility (28/1), Enforcement (40/1), The Late Legend (66/1), Master Sam Bellamy (125/1)
There should be more to come from SAFE DESTINATION, who left his chase debut form behind when scoring at Uttoxeter last month. He can follow up. Dreams of Diamonds and Ali Star Bert head the list of dangers.
