5/2

Proved consistent since joining Christian Williams, scoring for second time when taking 12-runner handicap chase at Stratford (27.5f, good, 4/1) in August. Shaped as if better for the run after 3 months off when fourth at Huntingdon last week.

Opened chase account back from a break at Huntingdon (3m, good to soft) before following up under a penalty here (29f) in March. Shaped as if needing the run after 7 months off when fourth over C&D last week.

Form: 21148-4

Guguss Collonges^p¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Lily Pinchin| T: R A Teal| OR: 91

11/10

Built on the promise of his previous 2 runs when winning for the first time since joining this yard at Stratford 19 days ago, responding well to an attacking ride over a longer trip. Up in distance again and should be seen to good effect around here.

Form: 6-P7231

Bertie's Bandana^p,t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: James Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 81

12/1

Poor maiden hurdler and went with no encouragement sent chasing on return 2 weeks ago. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 86UP8-0

Forecasts

Guguss Collonges (11/10), Call Of The Loon (5/2), Le Tueur (3/1), Bertie's Bandana (12/1)

GUGUSS COLLONGES was a convincing winner at Stratford 3 weeks ago and should prove difficult to peg back. Le Tueur has a good record around here so is next best.
