Horizon Parking UK's Leading Parking Company Handicap Chase

Off time: 16:18 | Winning time: 5m 52.98s

Cardamon Hill^p²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Henry Brooke| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 105| CD

10/3

Bounced back from out of the blue to capitalise on a lenient mark (and gain first chasing success) over C&D last time, going through the race fluently. Remains with handicapping scope and is likely to make an impact once more.

Form: P037-61

Easy Bucks²⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 102| CD

11/4

C&D winner. Improved to win 11-runner handicap chase (8/1) at Newton Abbot (25.8f, good) 29 days ago, digging deep. Remains well treated on best efforts and should go well again for in-form stable.

Form: 65P5-41

Up For Appeal²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Jack Tudor| T: Christian Williams| OR: 101

10/3

Fair hurdles winner who built on previous chasing encouragement when landing a 6-runner handicap at Newton Abbot a month ago. Can improve again and follow up.

Form: 1334-41

Castletown^b¹⁹

Age: 12| Weight: 11-4| J: P W Wadge⁽³⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 95| CD

11/1

Unreliable individual who didn't fire at Hexham last time. Has won here before, however, and blinkers are refitted, so not fully dismissed from a reduced mark.

Form: 237-559

Imperial Rule¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Ross Chapman| T: R Menzies| OR: 90| C

9/1

Placed in Irish points. Only hinted at promise on one of his 3 outings in novice hurdles but was much improved sent chasing/handicapping when scoring here in May. Disappointed at Market Rasen next time but too soon to write off up in trip.

Form: 3957-10

Camino Rocio^p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Brendan Powell| T: Miss H C Knight| OR: 85

6/1

Milan gelding who has made a positive start over fences, looking in need of a stiffer test when fourth over 20f at Worcester last time. Could have a bigger effort in him up to 3m.

Form: 608-524

Rollerruler¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: W Coltherd| OR: 78

20/1

Lightly raced in recent seasons and hasn't been in much form, so hard to make much of a case for.

Form: P/934-P6

Forecasts

Easy Bucks (11/4), Cardamon Hill (10/3), Up For Appeal (10/3), Meetmeinthemorning (5/1), Camino Rocio (6/1), Imperial Rule (9/1), Castletown (11/1), Rollerruler (20/1)

UP FOR APPEAL confirmed previous encouragement when comfortably opening his account as a chaser at Newton Abbot last time and he's up to going in again with further progress anticipated. Fellow last-time-out winners Easy Bucks and Cardamon Hill are both improving as chasers, so they could pose the main threats.
