5/2

Fortunate to make a winning start to his chase career on 3m Warwick reappearance, looking booked for a place at best until late departures. His mark has been left unchanged but he's still easy enough to take on.

Form: 2U953-1

Global Famenglory⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Tristan Durrell⁽³⁾| T: D Skelton| OR: 100

22/1

Modest maiden hurdler who was well held in a course handicap last month. From a leading stable but his claims aren't obvious now switching to fences.

Form: 2-3F278

Out The Glen^t⁴⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Lewis Stones| T: O Murphy| OR: 100

40/1

Three chase wins at the start of 2022. Also runner-up twice at Huntingdon last spring but ran badly on return from a break there in October, dropping away quickly. Bounce back needed.

Form: F26-52P

Gallow Ford^t1¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Shane Quinlan| T: Katy Price| OR: 94

15/2

Seen only sparingly since winning over hurdles at Exeter in April 2021 but shaped as if retaining some ability after a further 18 months off when fourth of 13 in handicap chase at Warwick (2½m, heavy) in November. Well beaten at Ludlow since, though.

Form: 214/4-47

Dreamsundermyfeet^p³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Harry Atkins⁽¹⁰⁾| T: M Keighley| OR: 90

18/1

Dual chase winner in 2021/22 but wasn't able to match that level in a winless campaign last season and beaten a long way both starts this term.

Form: 323P-50

Famoso¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Conor Ring| T: M Sheppard| OR: 89| BF

7/1

Readily resumed winning ways at Ludlow (2m, soft) in November and even better form when runner-up over 2¼m at Taunton 16 days ago. Likely to give another good account.

Form: 152512

Supasunrise^p⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Finn Lambert⁽³⁾| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 87

15/2

Gained his second chase win when seeing off 9 rivals over-2½m at Warwick in November and his subsequent Market Rasen run is easy to ignore (pulled up early after rein snapped).

Form: 856-31P

Family Pot^p,t²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Tabitha Worsley| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 87| CD

22/1

C&D winner. Third on C&D return in October but has recorded a couple of poor runs since, including here. Bounce back needed.

Form: 1P3-370

Unwanted Attention^p1,t⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: James Turner⁽⁵⁾| T: R Potter| OR: 85

11/1

Built on earlier promise when opening account in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (2½m) in June. Not in quite the same form since and needs to prove himself over fences.

Form: 07-0147

Perryville^p³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: Jay Tidball| T: Mrs M Rowley| OR: 83

16/1

Fair form at best in maiden/novice hurdles and showed an aptitude for chasing when remote third of 8 at Huntingdon (2½m) last month. Potential improver.

Form: 74-8653

Cobra Commander¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-10| J: Harry Kimber| T: T Symonds| OR: 82

11/1

Showed improved form when winning brace of handicap chases in April 2022 but has drawn a blank since, beaten just over 15 lengths when third over 25f here 17 days ago.

Form: 4-6V353

School For Scandal²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-9| J: Ellis Collier⁽³⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 81

14/1

Belatedly opened his account when scoring from the front in a Taunton handicap chase on final start of last season. Good second at Fakenham on return and each-way claims again here.

Form: 33PP1-2

Maasai Warrior^t²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: Angus Cheleda| T: C Gordon| OR: 76

8/1

First run for 22 months and since leaving Paul Henderson when creditable second of 5 in handicap chase at Fontwell (21.5f, soft) on reappearance 27 days ago. Can build on that now.

Forecasts

Rockinastorm (5/2), Famoso (7/1), Supasunrise (15/2), Gallow Ford (15/2), Maasai Warrior (8/1), Cobra Commander (11/1), Unwanted Attention (11/1), School For Scandal (14/1), Nine Nine Nine (14/1), Perryville (16/1), Dreamsundermyfeet (18/1), Family Pot (22/1), Global Famenglory (22/1), Out The Glen (40/1)

FAMOSO was in really good form last month and might be up to resuming winning ways under Connor Ring. Supasunrise is effectively having his first run since scoring under Finn Lambert at Warwick early last month and is second choice ahead of Maasai Warrior, who made a positive start for the Chris Gordon stable at Fontwell last month.
