Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 12/1, failed to stay 3m when fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Market Rasen 22 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Looks competitive on form back in trip.

Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap chase at Doncaster (24f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Can give a good account in his bid for a first win of the season.

Fair winner at 20f over hurdles who comes here in decent form over fences, fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Catterick (19.2f, good to soft) 26 days ago. One for the shortlist.

9/2
Lightly-raced hurdler for Michael Scudamore. Off nearly 2 years before shaping very well on his chasing debut when fourth of 9 in handicap chase (14/1) at Newcastle (20.1f, good to soft) 41 days ago, finishing well having been badly hampered 2 out. Interesting.

Fair maiden hurdler who posted an encouraging third of 7 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft, 13/2) on his debut over fences 148 days ago. Can take a step forward.

Forecasts

Konfusion (3/1), Scene One (7/2), Heads Or Harps (9/2), High Moon (13/2), Golden De Coeur (15/2), Flash In The Park (9/1), Tom Creen (14/1), Halpha Soleil (16/1), Cornerstone Lad (25/1)

Verdict

HEADS OR HARPS made a promising start over fences for Lucinda Russell after an absence when a strong-finishing fourth at Newcastle so gets the vote here with improvement very much on the cards. High Moon appeals as the pick of the rest now he reverts to a shorter trip with Scene One and Golden De Coeur looking best equipped in the battle for minor honours.

  2. High Moon13/2
  3. Scene One7/2
