16/1
Took well to fences in the first half of this season, winning (over 20f) at Warwick and Worcester. Shaped as if the run was needed after 4 months off when fourth of 5 at Huntingdon two weeks ago. A likely contender with that run under his belt.

7/4
A two-time hurdles winner this term but he came in a below-par third of 5 in handicap at Carlisle (19.3f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Still much respected on his chase debut.

Visored for 1st time when resuming winning ways in 5-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (17f, soft) 24 days ago. Not taken lightly despite a 4 lb rise.

7/2
Notched 5 wins over fences in 2023/24. Yet to score this term but he posted a good second of 6 in 2m4f Lingfield handicap chase 23 days ago. Weighted to go close off a 2 lb lower mark.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time when a respectable fourth of 9 in handicap chase at Southwell (20.4f, soft) 17 days ago. Shortlisted with the headgear retained.

Unreliable type who was pulled up in handicap chase at Plumpton (17f, soft) 38 days ago. Moody sort who is best opposed.

Forecasts

Broughshane (7/4), Royal Mer (7/2), Diplomatic Ash (4/1), Alto Alto (5/1), Doyouknowwhatimean (10/1), Next Left (16/1)

Verdict

ROYAL MER signalled he is ready to go in again when a clear second at Lingfield last time out so is fancied to capitalise on a 2 lb lower mark here. Next Left should be all the better for a recent Huntingdon fourth after a lay-off and is next on the list ahead of Broughshane and Alto Alto.
