Jumps Is Back With Rhino.Bet Handicap Chase

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 126| CD

C&D winner who looked very rusty after a long absence when a well-beaten seventh of 9 to Jupiter Allen in handicap chase (22/1) over C&D 33 days ago. Significantly more is needed.

Form: 06132/7

Broomfield Present^v³⁴⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-13| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 125| BF| DWS

Useful winning hurdler who made a promising start in this sphere when a C&D third last November. Off since being pulled up here 11 months ago though so has a bit to prove now.

Form: 121/3BP-

Investment Manager^t³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-13| J: Jack Tudor| T: J Tizzard| OR: 125| C

Course winner and already a dual scorer this term but he turned in a lacklustre display when third of 5 in handicap chase at Wincanton (25.1f) 38 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 2P-1713

Wiseguy²²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-13| J: James Bowen| T: N J Henderson| OR: 125| CD

C&D winner last November but off since being pulled up in 3m handicap hurdle at Cheltenham in April. Reverts to hurdles with his fitness to prove.

Form: 51466P-

No Hubs No Hoobs^b,t²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Brendan Powell| T: J Tizzard| OR: 124| C

Ended last term firmly on the up with a course win in April but he turned in a below-par fourth of 8 in handicap chase at Wincanton (26.7f, good) on his return 28 days ago. Needs to step forward.

Form: 25111-4

Livin On Luco^p²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Callum Pritchard⁽⁷⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 123

Made a winning start over fences in 7-runner handicap chase (7/2) at Newton Abbot (21f, soft) 25 days ago. This fairly useful hurdles scorer can build on it so must enter calculations.

Form: F1222-1

Ioupy Collonges²¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: H Cobden| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 123| C

Dual hurdles scorer opened his fencing account in 6-runner handicap chase at Perth (20.1f, soft) in April. Off 7 months but can make his presence felt stepping up in trip.

Form: 121/P31-

Coco Mademoiselle⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 122| BF| D

Winning Irish pointer who also scored twice over hurdles last term. Returned with a promising head second of 5 in 23f Worcester novice on debut over fences so he rates a big player off a lenient opening mark.

Form: 12P12-2

Jupiter Allen³³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: David Noonan| T: Mrs J Williams| OR: 121| CD

Dual winner over hurdles who advanced his form when landing 9-runner handicap chase over C&D 33 days ago. Looks to have more to offer so he merits consideration.

Form: 0315-51

Don't Rightly Know²⁵³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: P Gundry| OR: 120| C

Scored over hurdles at Exeter last November and continued in good form after, runner-up on four occasions. Much respected now starting out over fences.

Form: 123222-

Dr Kananga^t²¹⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-5| J: Ben Jones| T: Ben Clarke| OR: 117| D

It's now 12 runs since his last win in 2022 but he signed off last term with a solid fourth in handicap chase at Ffos Las (25.3f) in April. No forlorn hope.

Form: P22PB4-

Leissieres Express²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Lorcan Williams| T: J Scott| OR: 114| CD

C&D winner ended last season on the up but looked rusty on his return when eighth of 14 in 3m2f Chepstow handicap chase 26 days ago. Can take a step forward.

Form: 31U31-8

Forecasts

Livin On Luco (10/3), Coco Mademoiselle (9/2), Ioupy Collonges (5/1), Broomfield Present (15/2), Wiseguy (10/1), Don't Rightly Know (11/1), No Hubs No Hoobs (14/1), Jupiter Allen (14/1), Investment Manager (16/1), King's Threshold (20/1), Masters Legacy (20/1), Dr Kananga (20/1), Bass Rock (25/1), Leissieres Express (25/1)

A few with chances but Dan Skelton's COCO MADEMOISELLE looks to have got in lightly for her handicap debut on the back of a promising Worcester second so is hard to pass over. Jupiter Allen also looks to have better days ahead of him and is next on the list with Livin On Luco, Ioupy Collonges and Don't Rightly Know all in the mix too.
