Appeared to be very much on the decline prior to turning it round in hunters, scoring at Warwick a year ago. Below par at Sandown last time though so more is required.

9/4, won 9-runner hunter chase at Cartmel (21.2f, good to soft) 8 months ago for Miss Hannah Roach. Fourth in a point recently so he's one to consider.

6/1
Likeable chaser who landed a valuable Cheltenham handicap a couple of seasons back. Looked rusty after 15 months off when sixth in hunter chase at Warwick 18 days ago. Can take a step forward.

£10,000 5-y-o, Mahler gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (17f-3m winner) Ttebbob. Dual winning pointer, latest 19 days ago. Interesting prospect.

Fairly useful hurdler. Fourteenth of 20 in handicap chase (18/1) at Galway (22.5f) 6 months ago on his final run for Gordon Elliott. Cheekpieces back on with his fitness to prove.

Fairly useful chaser. Had a wind op before a below-form fourth of 9 in hunter chase at Warwick (24f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021.

7/2
Fairly useful hurdler but off 12 months since a below-par second of 4 in handicap chase at Catterick (25.2f). Handily weighted if fully tuned up.

Forecasts

Lord Du Mesnil (15/8), Minella Trump (7/2), Frontal Assault (11/2), For One Night Only (11/2), Eva's Oskar (6/1), Willewonga (16/1), D'jango (18/1)

Verdict

A few of these come here with question marks against them so it could be worth siding with FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY to build on a recent points success and make a winning start in this sphere. Eva's Oskar could emerge as the main danger with his recent Warwick sixth under his belt ahead of Willewonga and Minella Trump.

  1. For One Night Only11/2
  2. Eva's Oskar6/1
  3. Willewonga16/1
