Made it 3 wins in 4 starts when seeing off 6 rivals over 2m at Carlisle in October. Not so good when stepped back up in trip at Kelso last time, though.

18/1
Successful 3 times last season (all 20.5f at Ayr). Has failed to complete on both comeback starts this autumn but was in the process of running well (yet to be asked for maximum effort) when coming down 2 out back at Ayr 17 days ago. Claims if none the worse.

Shaped well when third on his 2½m Perth reappearance in September. On a good mark if he is able to back that up.

20/1
Course winner. Went in at Sedgefield in January (final start for Stuart Coltherd). Just as good when second at Hexham for Phil Kirby in April but ran poorly back at Sedgefield in May and has changed stable again ahead of return. The betting should help guide to expectations.

Has landed 3 wins over 2½m at Hexham this season but not in the same form when a well-held third over this C&D last month. His yard won the race last year.

Useful chaser in his prime. Lost his way for Phil Kirby but stopped the slide for new trainer Lizzie Quinlan when 10 lengths fourth of 15 at Carlisle last month. Very well treated if he can build on that.

7/2
Point winner who has scored twice over 2½m at Hexham this season, the latter success coming with a visor added (retained) 8 weeks ago. His 5 lb rise for that is offset by his rider's claim. Player.

8/1
Winning pointer who made a perfectly satisfactory chasing debut at Wetherby last month, shaping as if better for the run on return having looked third best for a long way. Failed badly to build on that at Bangor since so difficult to know what to expect here.

Forecasts

Glory And Honour (7/2), Shadows In The Sky (7/2), Step Above (4/1), Whoshotthesheriff (6/1), Hawkseye View (8/1), Backbyjet (17/2), Five Dollar Fine (16/1), Artic Row (18/1), Gandhi Maker (20/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken on WHOSHOTTHESHERIFF, who took a step back in the right direction on his first outing for Lizzie Quinlan and is thrown in on his peak form if he can build on that. Shadows In The Sky and Step Above might give him most to do. Artic Row could also play a part assuming a recent heavy tumble at Ayr hasn't dented his confidence.

  1. Whoshotthesheriff6/1
  2. Shadows In The Sky7/2
  3. Step Above4/1
