Had another breathing op and has taken his form to a new level this term, completing his hat-trick in 3m2f Cheltenham handicap last month. Earlier put in a superb jumping display to bag Grand Sefton at Aintree. Likely player once more.
|
It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2022 but this very useful chaser wasn't disgraced when sixth of 8 to King Turgeon in handicap chase at Cheltenham (26f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up.
|
Scored at Uttoxeter in May and got back on track when second of 10 in handicap chase at Sandown (28.7f, soft) 40 days ago. In the mix.
|
Temperamental sort who resumed with a below-par fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Bangor (24.1f, soft) 64 days ago. Something to find on form.
|
Course winner who comes here on the back of a creditable third of 13 in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, soft) 26 days ago, sticking to task. In the picture with cheekpieces on for the 1st time.
|
Twenty runs since his last win in 2020 and he was pulled up in handicap chase at Haydock (28.4f, soft) 17 days ago. Others are preferred.
|
Course winner who shaped encouragingly after 7 months off when third of 9 in handicap chase at Haydock (25.6f, heavy) 54 days ago. Can make his presence felt.
|
Has done his winning in small fields and got back on track when fourth of 9 in 25f handicap chase at Haydock last time. Worth a second look with blinkers added.
|
Low-mileage sort who returned to form when third of 11 in handicap chase at Exeter (24.2f, soft) 28 days ago. Needs considering eased 1 lb here.
|
Much improved since sent chasing and he went 2-2 with a ready victory in 7-runner handicap chase at Chepstow (26.2f, heavy) 11 days ago. Up 5 lb but has more to offer. Big shout.

Forecasts
Katate Dori (11/8), King Turgeon (9/2), Sizable Sam (7/1), My Silver Lining (8/1), Credo (10/1), Take Your Time (12/1), Collectors Item (14/1), The Big Breakaway (22/1), Ballygrifincottage (25/1), Ask Me Early (28/1)
KATATE DORI has created an excellent impression since sent over fences and a 5 lb rise for his comfortable Chepstow victory doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from going 3-3. David Pipe's resurgent King Turgeon rates the obvious threat in his bid to complete a four-timer, although the likes of Take Your Time, Ballygrifincottage and Collectors Item can all have a say too in this cracking handicap.
- Katate Dori11/8
- King Turgeon9/2
- Take Your Time12/1
