Helnwein²⁰⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| OR: 128| CD

9/4

Useful bumper winner who made a successful switch to hurdling at Warwick in November. Better form in defeat since, including when taking a big step forward to make a winning handicap bow at Sandown in April. Interesting chasing newcomer.

Form: 3/12421-

Booster Bob³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 126| D

7/4

Completed a hat-trick over hurdles in 2m novice at Sandown in December. Resumed progress when making a winning comeback/chase bow at Ffos Las last month, beating 2 subsequent winners. More to come and leading contender.

Form: 1114P-1

Moveit Like Minnie^t,p1²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 126| D

9/1

Fairly useful handicap hurdler around 2m and fine start over fences back from 6 months off when scoring at Stratford (17f) in September. Looked set to resume winning ways before running out at the last Aintree last month and headgear now applied.

Form: 99P-1UR

Kamaxos^h²⁰⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Lily Pinchin| T: R A Teal| OR: 124| D

12/1

Made light of a long absence to comfortably see off 6 rivals in 2m Sandown handicap hurdle in February. Decent efforts in defeat next 2 starts but not an obvious chasing type given his Flat background.

Form: 512/143-

Telepathique²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: H Cobden| T: L Wadham| OR: 116| CD

9/2

Confirmed debut promise when landing bumper here and much better for hurdles bow when scoring at Southwell a year ago. Looked a natural when making a winning start in this sphere after 11 months off at Fakenham 3 weeks ago. She seems sure to progress as a chaser.

Form: 410/21-1

Sometimes Always¹¹²⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: C J Todd| T: Ian Williams| OR: 114| D

80/1

Fairly useful hurdler but has been off the track for over 3 years and makes chase bow in a warm event.

Form: 111748/

Commanding View¹⁸⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Charlie Hammond| T: Mrs M Rowley| OR: 109| D

11/1

Twice a winner over hurdles last season, including handicap at Bangor final start. However, no easy task on return/chase bow from 2 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 6/6102-1

Forecasts

Booster Bob (7/4), Helnwein (9/4), Telepathique (9/2), Inedit Star (8/1), Moveit Like Minnie (9/1), Commanding View (11/1), Kamaxos (12/1), Sometimes Always (80/1)

TELEPATHIQUE took to chasing really well when scoring with plenty in hand at Fakenham 3 weeks so tops the shortlist despite a 13 lb rise. Booster Bob also arrives on the back of an impressive chase debut success, while Moveit Like Minnie is another who is clearly capable.
