Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Alex Chadwick⁽³⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 93

11/8

A fair ex-Irish hurdler/chaser who has made a very promising start for his new yard, idling when landing 2m4f Southwell handicap 15 days ago. Reverts to fences now and appeals as sort who has plenty more to offer. Big shout.

80/1

7/2

Rejoined his former yard whn getting off the mark under Rules in 10-runner handicap chase here (21.6f, good) 14 days ago. Has to be taken seriously despite a 3 lb weights rise.

Extraordinary Man^p³⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: Brendan Powell| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 83

15/2

On a losing run but he came in a solid third of 6 in handicap chase at Southwell (15.8f, good) 39 days ago. Up in trip now and he merits consideration.

6/1

Course winner in November but below form in 2025, fifth of 12 in handicap chase at Huntingdon (23.6f, good) 30 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Forecasts

Ivane (11/8), Fine Investment (7/2), Boys Of Wexford (6/1), Kap Auteuil (13/2), Extraordinary Man (15/2), Millies Mite (12/1), Jack Sparrow Grey (22/1), Orion D'Aubrelle (80/1)

James Owen's new recruit IVANE was quick to make his mark over hurdles at Southwell and can follow up now sent back over fences with the prospect of plenty more to come now wtth this excellent yard. Fine Investment could emerge as the main threat on the back of a recent success here, with Extraordinary Man and Kap Auteuil also in the picture.
