25/1
Back to form in cheekpieces when winning a 4-runner handicap chase at Newcastle at the end of February but pulled up in 2 subsequent outings during the spring. Fared little better back from 6 months off at Bangor so plenty to prove back over the larger obstacles.

5/1
Made winning return/chase debut at Warwick last season and added to that at Cheltenham in December. Well backed on reappearance at latter venue in October but his effort proved short lived. Eased 2 lb and should run closer to form this time.

4/1
Fairly useful hurdler for Gordon Elliott and made an encouraging start chasing for his new yard with third-place finishes at Uttoxeter and Southwell in early summer. Sound return to action in a deeper handicap than this at Bangor 3 weeks ago so he needs considering.

6/1
Likeable type who confirmed previous promise when merely pushed out to win 6-runner handicap chase at Haydock (25.6f, soft) in March. Probably should have followed up at Perth on final outing last term and easy to excuse latest chase run (slipped badly and all but came down). Cheekpieces off.

9/1
Course winner who ended a lengthy losing run at Carlisle in March. Ignored in the betting and almost certainly needed his return to action over C&D a month ago. Blinkers back on and better expected.

7/2
Winless over hurdles but quickly set the record straight over fences last term, gaining a third victory at Ludlow (23.8f) in February. Added to tally in 4-runner race at latter venue a month ago and 2 lb rise is very fair.

11/4
Irish point winner who bettered hurdles form at the first attempt when close fourth on chase bow over 21.3f here on return, doing all her best work late in the day returned to a trip well shy of her optimum. Jumping failed the test at Carlisle but she could be worth another chance.

Forecasts

Lady In The Park (11/4), Rockinastorm (7/2), Santonito (4/1), Are U Wise To That (5/1), Duke Of Deception (6/1), Geryville (9/1), Cheddleton (25/1)

Verdict

LADY IN THE PARK failed to complete on second chase start at Carlisle but she looks worth another chance as there's mileage from this sort of mark over a staying trip. Are U Wise To That should step up on his reappearance and that makes him dangerous, with Rockinastorm fit and in form.
