7/2
Revived by a return to positive tactics/refitting of cheekpieces when running out a wide-margin winner over fences at Fontwell (21.6f, heavy) in January. Jumping let him down when fourth over hurdles at Fakenham since but respected nevertheless returned to larger obstacles.

9/1
Handles testing ground well and improved when making all in 9-runner handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.5f, heavy) in January. No more than a respectable effort when third at Bangor latest but worth a look now attentions switch to larger obstacles with the hood discarded.

Fair form when second on standout run over hurdles last season but failed to complete both starts following his switch to chasing upon returning to action late last year. Returns from 71 days off from further reduced mark but he's certainly not easy to predict.

Went the right way over hurdles last term, gaining a second victory at Fontwell in March. Started off well in this sphere with in-frame efforts here and Lingfield but disappointing both subsequent starts, latterly when pulled up over C&D 3 weeks ago. Needs to bounce back.

4/1
Dual hurdles winner (including here) who found only one too good on 4 occasions switched to chasing last season. Out of sorts initially this term but brighter signs from a sliding mark over hurdles of late if he can translate that back to larger obstacles.

10/3
Broke his duck in 8-runner handicap chase at Lingfield (2m, soft) in December and backed that up when runner-up at Warwick later that month. Latest Plumpton run 18 days ago was an underwhelming one but not out of things on pick of his exploits.

Successful 4 times over fences in 2023 but folded several times for Harry Derham last year and he's yet to scale a revival for his present yard from his sliding mark.

Forecasts

John W Creasy (10/3), Fame And Fun (7/2), Walkinthewoods (4/1), Monbari (4/1), Mumbles (11/2), Walkinthecotswolds (9/1), Mystic Man (33/1)

Verdict

Having run out a good winner over fences on his penultimate start, FAME AND FUN made mistakes and never figured back over hurdles at Fakenham 2 weeks ago. However, he's worth another chance returned to this sphere with a switch back to positive tactics also likely to see him in a better light. Walkinthecotswolds and Walkinthewoods are others worth a look in a trappy affair.
