15/8
Big improver in handicaps. Completed a hurdle hat-trick in May and extended his winning run to 5 when building on his Southwell chase debut success in 8-runner C&D handicap 45 days ago. Had a bit to spare then and big shout in bid to complete 6-timer.

7/2
Winning pointer who was brought along gradually over hurdles and much improved switched to chasing this term, impressing when landing handicaps at Worcester/Ascot first 2 starts. Mistake didn't help at crucial stage when good third at Taunton in December and he retains potential back from a break.

9/1
No great shakes over hurdles/on the Flat in Ireland but has upped his game for this yard, winning handicap chases at Ludlow/Leicester before a good third at first-named venue 24 days ago. Raced exclusively on right-handed tracks in this sphere to date but respected nevertheless.

9/4
Landed 3 of his 6 starts in France. Lightly raced and consistent for this yard, placed first 2 starts this winter before a rallying fourth over a marathon trip at Windsor (28.7f) 6 weeks ago. Return to softer ground here will do him no harm stepping back down in trip.

Back-to-back winner over hurdles for Syd Hosie this time last year. Not long with present yard and his chase debut third in 8-runner Ffos Las handicap (19.4f) 23 days ago wasn't devoid of encouragement. Return to this longer trip entitled to suit. Blinkers on 1st time.

Forecasts

Jasmin De Grugy (15/8), Zertakt (9/4), Law Of Supply (7/2), Rivers Corner (15/2), Superbolt (9/1)

Verdict

Having completed a hurdles hat-trick back in the spring, JASMIN DE GRUGY has continued on his steep upward trajectory over fences this winter, supplementing his reappearance Southwell success in similarly good style over C&D 45 days ago. Appealing as the type to do better still, he could be up to completing the 6-timer. Law of Supply remains capable of better himself in this sphere and is feared, ahead of Zertakt in an interesting small-field affair.
