Jerrash^b1⁶³

Age: 7| Weight: 12-2| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽³⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 122| C

3/1

Successful over hurdles at Plumpton (25f) last January but has failed to build on that under both codes, pulled up at Exeter in November. Blinkers are reached for now.

Form: 0/1P0-4P

Southern Sam²⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: David Bass| T: R Bandey| OR: 120

5/2

Lightly-raced for his age and, having ran well when third on return at Wetherby in November, he ran out a gutsy winner at Haydock (25.5f) 29 days ago. Weighted to go well again.

Form: 2/22P-31

Whydah Gally^p1,t⁵⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 111| C

7/1

Unreliable type who scored at Lingfield on his return only to come in last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (23.6f, heavy) 50 days ago. Switches to fences with cheekpieces added and lots to prove.

Form: P4P3-16

Blame The Game^p²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Rex Dingle| T: C Gordon| OR: 110| C

7/2

Course winner who took a step back in the right direction when seventh of 11 in handicap chase (18/1) at Plumpton (28.5f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Considered off a falling mark.

Form: 2U4-497

Gold Clermont²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Philip Armson⁽³⁾| T: A Irvine| OR: 110

9/2

Resumed winning ways at Fakenham in December but only eighth of 11 in handicap chase at Plumpton (28.5f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 162-318

Len Brennan^p²⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 10-10| J: Bradley Harris⁽³⁾| T: Anthony Charlton| OR: 102

18/1

Has gone well fresh but pulled up on his return in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, soft) 24 days ago. Others are preferred.

Form: 1435/3-P

Forecasts

Southern Sam (5/2), Jerrash (3/1), Blame The Game (7/2), Gold Clermont (9/2), Whydah Gally (7/1), Len Brennan (18/1)

SOUTHERN SAM displayed a plucky attitude when scoring at Haydock last month and can make light of a 3 lb rise in the weights in a handicap where most arrive with a question mark against them. Course winner Blame The Game is sliding down the weights and next on the list ahead of Gold Clermont who needs to shrug off a lesser showing at Plumpton.
