Unreliable type who unseated his rider at the 8th in handicap chase at Hexham (20.1f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Thirteen runs since his last win in 2023 too.

Unreliable sort and he has been pulled up on his last two runs, in handicap chase at Musselburgh (20.3f, good to soft) on latter occasion. Very hard to warm to.

2/1
Gained his breakthrough victory at Wetherby in December and has continued in good nick, third of 10 in handicap chase there (19.4f, soft) 58 days ago when doing too much too soon. Leading claims off an unchanged mark.

5/1
Placed in a couple of points but yet to ofer much over hurdles and on his chasing bow when fifth of 10 in handicap at Market Rasen (23.9f, good to soft) 55 days ago. Needs to take a big step forward.

11/2
Resumed winning ways at Catterick in January and largely in good nick since, though he found little when third of 8 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Blinkers go back on.

Yet to score this term, though he wasn't discredited when fifth of 8 in handicap chase at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft) in November. Not ruled out after a break.

4/1
Poor 2m4f hurdles winner who came in a well-held fourth of 7 in handicap over C&D on his debut over fences 28 days ago. Lots more is required.

Forecasts

Empty Nest (2/1), Cave Hill (4/1), Soldier Dan (5/1), Beat The Edge (11/2), Kicksaftersix (8/1), Fia Fuinidh (8/1), Goodtimes Badtimes (16/1)

Verdict

A few of these arrive with question marks against them so this looks an excellent opportunity for EMPTY NEST to regain the winning thread having been ridden too aggressively when a solid Wetherby fourth last time out. Kicksaftersix is feared most in his bid to gain a first win of the current campaign, with Beat The Edge appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

  1. Empty Nest2/1
  2. Kicksaftersix8/1
  3. Beat The Edge11/2
