3/1

Scored at Sedgefield in September and matched his hurdles form on his chasing debut when third of 10 in 2m4f Southwell handicap in Decembr. Off since but he must enter calculations eased 1 lb.

Form: 247123

Pepe Le Moko^p³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: David Noonan| T: Mrs J Williams| OR: 116| D

11/4

Yet to score this term and he came in only sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Warwick (20f, soft) 31 days ago. Proving expensive to follow despite a falling mark.

Form: 6P6646

Somespring Special^t²³⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 113| D

4/5

Scored last April at Plumpton and Cheltenham for Anthony Honeyball but he came in only 10th on his sole start for Chris Gordon in 2m4f Lingfield handicap in July. Starts out for a yard among the winners here off a lenient mark so not without interest.

Form: P11-540

Forecasts

Somespring Special (4/5), Pepe Le Moko (11/4), Jaramillo (3/1), Onethreefivenotout (6/1)

Not the easiest race to asess and it could be worth siding with the returning SOMESPRING SPECIAL to capitalise on a handy mark now starting out with the in-form Philip Hobbs and Johnson White team. Jaramillo rates the pick of the remaining trio if, as expected, building on an encouraging chasing debut third at Southwell.
