7/2
Is enjoying a good season and gamely bagged a second victory in 2m4f Newcastle handicap chase 19 days ago. That form has been franked so he merits serious consideration despite a 3 lb weights rise.

9/2
Still to get his head in front but he has shaped well on both runs for his current yard after an absence, second of 4 in handicap chase at Newcastle (20.1f, goods) on latter occasion. A likely player nudged up 1 lb with cheekpieces back on.

A modest maiden who was not a fluent hurdler so probably best watched now chasing.

Got off the mark in 2m3f handicap chase at Chepstow in March and backed it up with a solid third of 6 at Warwick (20f, good) 23 days ago. Must enter calculations eased 1 lb.

Remains winless and pulled up all three runs for his current yard, cheekpieces on at Hexham (31.9f, good to soft) last time. Down in trip with work to do.

Maiden hurdler but this point winner showed some promise despite being pulled up in 23f handicap at Newcastle on his chasing debut 19 days ago, headway when blundered 5 out. May still do better.

Little show all four runs in this sphere, pulled up on his handicap debut at Market Rasen in December. Hard to make a case for.

Maiden hurdler/chaser who beat only one in handicap chase at Newcastle (20.1f, good) 47 days ago. Since had a wind op and needs it to spark major progress.

Yet to register a victory but he hinted at a revival when fifth of 6 in handicap chase at Musselburgh (23.6f, good to soft) in November. Not discounted after a break.

Remains a maiden after 16 runs but he wasn't discredited when fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (23.7f, good) 14 days ago. Possibilities on her chasing bow.

Forecasts

Yes And Yes (10/3), Empty Nest (7/2), Top Of The Bay (9/2), Uncle Mac (13/2), Lady Hamilton (7/1), Great Ballinboris (15/2), Lucky Soldier (12/1), Deep Strato (16/1), Stonegate (50/1), Hey Brother (100/1)

Verdict

EMPTY NEST has really found his feet this season and showed a good attitude when getting up late to score at Newcastle last time so is fancied to defy a 3 lb weight rise with that form also having been franked. Top of The Bay has started life well with Sam England but could have to settle for runner-up spot once more, while Yes And Yes and Uncle Mac can both have a say too.

  1. Empty Nest7/2
  2. Top Of The Bay9/2
  3. Yes And Yes10/3
