8/11
Improved again when landing the odds in maiden hurdle at Plumpton (2m, soft) in February. Disappointed on handicap bow at Newbury final start but makes chasing debut/return in a weak-looking race (placed completed start in Irish points).

Won chase at Thurles 12 months ago. However, well held last 3 starts and tough to assess at present. Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Robert Tyner.

4/1
Bumper winner who failed to score over hurdles but has the build for chasing and duly improved when opening account on return/debut over fences at Fontwell. Shaped much better than bare result there 4 weeks ago but folded in alarming fashion after turning for home looking the winner. Down in trip.

Completed a hat-trick for his current yard at Leicester in January but yet to fire in 3 runs this term. Needs to take a big step forward.

Forecasts

David's Well (8/11), Johnny Mac (7/2), Samazul (4/1), My Portia (14/1), McGrath From Clune (22/1)

Verdict

DAVID'S WELL failed to meet expectations on his handicap bow when last seen but he was progressive over hurdles prior to that and makes his chase debut in a weak event. Samazul is the obvious threat despite his weak finish at Fontwell last month.

  1. David's Well8/11

  3. McGrath From Clune22/1
