Irish point winner who did the job well over C&D 12 months ago and only just held in same race on return 3 weeks ago. Needs considering.

9/1
Bagged handicap chases at Market Rasen and Sedgefield last term and better for return when fourth 9½ lengths fourth of 8 to Angel's Dream in handicap chase at this C&D (good to soft) 20 days ago. Not taken lightly in first-time headgear.

9/2
Became disappointing over hurdles but dispelled chase debut blip returning from 6 months off when winning 8-runner handicap chase at this C&D (good to soft) 20 days ago by neck from Superstylin, displaying a good attitude in the process. Respected with a repeat.

13/2
Point winner who stepped up on her hurdle exploits when making a successful switch to fences at Leicester (20.1f) in February. Excuses since, shaping as if needing the run when fourth at Ffos Las on return. Back down in trip and remains unexposed as a chaser.

Went close without success over hurdles and produced a promising first effort in this sphere/after 5 months off when third of 8 in handicap chase at Hereford (2m) 3 weeks ago, keeping on run-in. Entitled to strip fitter here and he's of strong interest.

Has filled the runner-up spot 7 times over fences, including on his comeback run over C&D 9 days ago. Each-way claims again.

Still winless over fences and below par so far this term. Others more appealing.

Forecasts

Smart Casual (11/5), Superstylin (16/5), Angel's Dream (9/2), Bobbi's Beauty (13/2), Robins Field (15/2), Hokelami (9/1), Clondaw Robin (25/1)

Verdict

SMART CASUAL made a promising chasing debut when third at Hereford on return and looks the one to beat off the same mark with improvement forthcoming. There was little between Angel's Dream and Superstylin when first and second over C&D 3 weeks ago and they head the dangers.
