Jerrash^b⁴³

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: N F Houlihan| T: G & J Moore| OR: 121| CD

7/4

Successful over C&D off 6 lb higher last January and, having taken a step back in the right direction in first-time blinkers (retained here) over fences at Fontwell last time, he should prove hard to beat back hurdling in a thin race.

Form: 1P0-4P2

I See You Well²⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-10| J: Bradley Harris⁽³⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 117| C

3/1

Something of a course specialist, winning 5 times over fences here. However, recent efforts have lacked spark and he hasn't been seen out in this sphere since finishing fourth in the 2019 renewal of this race.

Form: 8265U6

Ballinsker⁹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: Miss Eleanor Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 110| C

8/1

Recorded a third win over fences at Chepstow last spring but no show in 3 outings since returning to action in November, including back hurdling at Ffos Las on penultimate start.

Form: 21-386P

San Pedro^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Freddie Gordon⁽⁵⁾| T: C Gordon| OR: 102| CD

7/4

Came good for this yard with a wide-margin C&D (soft) success last month. Last of 4 without a penalty at Lingfield 10 days later and new 6 lb higher mark has now kicked in but will certainly have a chance if he puts his best foot forward.

Form: 4-15314

Forecasts

San Pedro (7/4), Jerrash (7/4), I See You Well (3/1), Ballinsker (8/1)

This race has got JERRASH written all over it on the back of his solid second with blinkers enlisted in a handicap chase at Fontwell. He was a winner over C&D on his sole previous visit here last season and has slipped to a handy mark. San Pedro is the pick for forecast purposes ahead of I See You Well.
