Appeared to be very much on the decline prior to turning it round in hunters lately, scoring in an 8-runner event at Warwick 26 days ago. Should give another good account.
|
Fairly useful hurdler. 10/1, first run since leaving N. A. Pearce when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Leicester (20.1f, heavy) 58 days ago. Should be better for that and he has the ability to compete in this.
|
12/1, career best when winning 7-runner hunter chase at Wincanton (25.1f, soft) 16 days ago. Going the right way and merits plenty of respect.
|
Fairly useful chaser. Seven wins from 27 NH runs. 6/1, first run since leaving Brian Ellison when bit below form third of 6 in hunter chase at Wetherby (24.2f, heavy) 14 days ago. Not completely dismissed.
|
Won a novice hunter at Stratford on last Rules outing in June last year and has done well in points since, so merits respect for all that he has a bit to find.
|
€33,000 3-y-o, Jeu St Eloi gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 2¼m-23f hurdle/chase winner Balkan du Pecos and 19 hurdle winner Darjeeling Pecos. Dam 2¼m chase winner. Wears cheekpieces. Multiple point winner, including latest start (Dec 31). Not dismissed.
|
Useful chaser at his best for Henry de Bromhead and, while he's prone to mistakes, he has the ability to make a big impact for new yard on first go in this discipline.
|
£1,800 3-y-o, Multiplex gelding. Dam unraced. Multiple point winner, unplaced last time (Dec 31).

Forecasts
Quintin's Man (7/2), D'jango (7/2), Windsor Avenue (11/2), Firak (11/2), Captain Biggles (13/2), Iskandar Pecos (7/1), Spyglass Hill (9/1), Willewonga (28/1)
SPYGLASS HILL is the class act in this field and, if his jumping holds up, he could make a successful start for his new yard. Quintin's Man and D'Jango both arrive in good order, so that pair could fight it out if the selection underperforms.
