Fern Hill^p1²⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 12-1| J: Mr Charlie Case⁽⁵⁾| T: B I Case| OR: 121

11/1

This mark is a good one judged on his reappearance third to Nassalam but he's run abysmally on all 3 outings since. Blinkers didn't do any good last time so it remains to be seen if first-time cheekpieces make any difference.

Form: 44-3PP6

Bolsover Bill^p,t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Miss Victoria Malzard| T: Harry Derham| OR: 116| BF| D

7/2

Won 4 times for Warren Greatrex last season and has continued to thrive for current yard, landing back-to-back handicaps at Exeter in January under this rider. Running well again when unseating 3 out at Uttoxeter latest. The one to beat.

Form: 3-8411U

Everything'sontick^t³⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Mrs Izzie Hill⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs L Hill| OR: 115

7/2

Has made a good start over fences this term, scoring at Leicester and Plumpton, although he was a fortunate winner at the latter track 5 weeks ago, leading near the finish after a loose horse hampered the runner-up. Mark unchanged.

Form: 50-1371

Oscar Robertson^p1²⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-8| J: Tom Broughton| T: N Kent| OR: 114| D

7/1

Scored at Wetherby in 2021 for Tom George and back from a long absence with respectable fourth placings at Leicester, Doncaster and Southwell this winter. Cheekpieces go on for the first time.

Form: 22P/444

Ladronne^t¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Paddy Barlow⁽⁵⁾| T: T Collier| OR: 114| BF| D

9/1

Looked on good terms with himself when resuming winning ways at Doncaster (3¼m, soft) this month and presumably found the run coming too soon when only fourth off the same mark at Sedgefield 9 days later.

Form: 42P314

Gerico Ville^v1²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: Miss Molly Landau⁽⁷⁾| T: C Gordon| OR: 109

11/2

Fair winner at 25f over hurdles and easily best effort over fences this season when close second at Plumpton last month. Only a remote third at Warwick since, though. First-time visor replaces cheekpieces.

Form: 1P-6423

Post Chaise^b1³⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr H Myddelton⁽⁷⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 102| CD

10/3

C&D winner in November. Better than result when third of 6 at Ludlow (3m, heavy) under Harry Myddelton last month. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. Looks the chief threat to Bolsover Bill.

Form: 5P-4133

The form of BOLLSOVER BILL's Exeter wins in January have been boosted several times and he was in with a shout when unseating 3 out at Uttoxeter since. He's taken to show he's still on a good mark, most likely at the main expense of November's C&D scorer Post Chaise.
