Roger Rarebit^t,v¹¹^{(ex 7)}

Age: 6| Weight: 12-4| J: Conor Ring⁽³⁾| T: T Lacey| OR: 101

11/4

Improved since visored, successful over hurdles at Ffos Las in January, and made light of a 7-month absence to make winning chase debut at Uttoxeter (20f, heavy) 11 days ago, produced to lead 3 out and soon clear. Big shout under a penalty with prospect of more to come.

Form: 2312U-1

O'Connell²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Nick Scholfield| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 104| D

15/8

Winning Irish pointer who has shown promise under Rules, quickly dispelling his Wetherby blip when runner-up over C&D 21 days ago, that despite wandering off the bridle. Not out of things.

Form: 545-3F2

The Lion Dancer^b³⁴¹

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Harriet Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: A M Hales| OR: 102| D

33/1

Four-time winner over fences for Charlie Mann who produced his best effort for some time when making a winning return from 9 months off at Uttoxeter (3m, heavy) on New Year's Eve. Will need to bring his A Game back from another absence now, however.

Form: 5523P/1-

Brandisova²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Tom Cannon| T: L Wadham| OR: 96| BF| D

13/2

In good form earlier this year, landing handicaps over hurdles/fences at around 3m at Fakenham. Good second final start and she promises to strip fitter for her solid reappearance third at Lingfield (23.5f, soft) last month.

Form: 22112-3

Mixedwave¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Paul O'Brien| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 91| CD

9/4

Front runner who took well to fences last term, scoring twice, and showed benefit of reappearance run when making all in a C&D handicap 14 days ago, just holding on (later disqualified for rider's overuse of the whip). Good shout.

Form: 1123-31

Forecasts

O'Connell (15/8), Mixedwave (9/4), Roger Rarebit (11/4), Brandisova (13/2), The Lion Dancer (33/1)

ROGER RAREBIT showed improved form when making a winning chase debut at Uttoxeter 11 days ago, impressing with how he travelled before quickening clear. He can follow up under a penalty with the likelihood of more to come in this sphere. Mixedwave and O'Connell are the dangers.
