Rand Farm Park All Weather Attraction Novices' Handicap Chase

Off time: 12:42 | Winning time: 6m 28.56s

Stuti⁶⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: K Brogan| T: H Morrison| OR: 95

15/2

Bumper winner and placed a few times over hurdles. Ran no sort of race after 4 months off at Southwell in October but she got loose beforehand that day and she's worth a market check on chasing debut.

Form: 373-33P

Asa^p²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Joe Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 85

13/2

Off the mark in 10-runner Cartmel handicap hurdle (2¾m, good) in June and made quite an eye-catching start to chasing career when fifth at Kelso in October. Shaped as though amiss at Wetherby since and she's not one to write off.

Form: 31245P

Dunworley²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Tom Broughton⁽⁵⁾| T: N Kent| OR: 83

7/2

Maiden pointer and 0-7 under Rules. Wasn't disgraced when fourth of 10 on his seasonal reappearance here (21.4f, soft) last month but will need to find improvement from somewhere if he's to open his account.

Form: P5P7-34

Abbeyhill^t,p1²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: C O'Farrell| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 82| D

10/3

Irish point scorer who ended last term on the up, going in at Plumpton and Catterick, both at around 25f. However, his efforts so far this season have left much to be desired. Cheekpieces added to tongue tie.

Form: 121-P56

Ronnies Reflection^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: P W Wadge| T: B I Case| OR: 81

15/2

Little to shout about over hurdles but showed more following a second wind op when third on return/chase debut in an 8-runner handicap at Leicester (22.7f, soft) where he was ½-length adrift of runner-up Everyonesacritic. Solid claims.

Form: 995-P3

Some Bro²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: D C Costello| T: M Walford| OR: 78

11/4

Placed a couple of times between the flags and while he didn't show much in 3 runs over hurdles, he was in the process of showing vastly improved form before a bad mistake 3 out ended his race on chase debut here (21.4f, soft) last month. One to be interested in.

Form: F42-45P

Lady Pacifico^p²⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: G Howell| OR: 77

22/1

Flat/hurdles winner who made a decent start for this stable when third at Leicester on chase bow last November. Not so good next 2 starts but signed off with a creditable fifth at Stratford (27.5f, good to soft) during the spring and she's by no means a forlorn hope.

Scottsdale⁴²

Age: 11| Weight: 10-2| J: Ben Ffrench-Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: P Winks| OR: 66| C

40/1

Remains winless over fences and looks set for another struggle.

Form: 5433P5

Forecasts

Some Bro (11/4), Abbeyhill (10/3), Dunworley (7/2), Asa (13/2), Stuti (15/2), Ronnies Reflection (15/2), Lady Pacifico (22/1), Scottsdale (40/1)

SOME BRO was shaping like he was in with a big shout when making a chance-ending error 3 out here a month ago and he's worth a chance to confirm that promise. Another solid showing from Ronnies Reflection is on the cards and Asa needs respecting based on the way he shaped on his penultimate start.
