MW Paving & Groundworks Handicap Chase

Off time: 14:53 | Winning time: 5m 53.20s

Imperial Rule^t¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Ross Chapman| T: R Menzies| OR: 98| C

11/4

Made a good transition to chasing this term, winning 3 of his 5 starts, including back-to-back handicaps at this course (19.3f) and Catterick (19.2f) last month. 4 lb higher now but another bold is on the cards.

Form: 7-10511

Treaty Boy^t¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 98

9/2

Made a winning chase debut at Catterick (15.7f) in February on final run for Rebecca Menzies and back to that sort of form, on fourth start for current yard, when third of 11 in handicap chase at Carlisle (15.9f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Likely contender.

Form: 012-603

Up For Appeal³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: B S Hughes| T: Christian Williams| OR: 97| D

13/2

Got off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot in June but has found life tougher since, again coming up short at Fakenham last time. Others make more appeal.

Form: 4134P5

The Paddy Pie¹⁰

Age: 11| Weight: 11-0| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽³⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 84| C

9/4

Course winner but not scored for best part of 2 years and looked beaten when unseating rider over C&D 10 days ago. Others more convincing.

Form: 74-P52U

Jack Doyen^b²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: J M Quinlan| T: B I Case| OR: 82| D

11/2

Knuckled down well when gaining a second career success at Hereford (20.9f) in March and returned to form when creditable second of 8 in handicap chase at Fontwell (19.5f, good to soft, 12/1) 28 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Form: F124-32

Pure Surf^p¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Charlie Maggs⁽⁷⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 77| CD

16/1

Sent off a big price and appeared to leave her previous efforts behind in this sphere when 1½ lengths third of 4 to Imperial Rule in handicap chase at Catterick (19.2f, good to firm, 40/1) 14 days ago. Percentage call is to look elsewhere, though.

Form: U487-F3

Forecasts

The Paddy Pie (9/4), Imperial Rule (11/4), Treaty Boy (9/2), Jack Doyen (11/2), Up For Appeal (13/2), Kings Justice (15/2), Hazard Collonges (10/1), Pure Surf (16/1)

TREATY BOY bounced back to form when third at Carlisle last month and makes most appeal in a tricky-looking contest. Imperial Rule and Hazard Collonges can also make their presence felt.
