Lively Citizen^p²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 12-2| J: Toby McCain-Mitchell⁽⁷⁾| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 112| CD

7/1

Cashed on a reduced mark returned to chasing at Ayr in January. Not quite in the same form next 2 starts and he dropped away tamely returned to timber at Cheltenham 3 weeks ago. This is easier and cheekpieces are back on.

Form: 971430-

Baseline^h³⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: M G Nolan| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 110

2/1

Lightly-raced maiden hurdler who made a promising start to his chase career when second of 6 at Wetherby in March, running on. Should be very competitive up 2 lb.

Form: P4/2462-

Gower Prince^h¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: R Patrick| T: M Sheppard| OR: 108| D

11/1

Scored at Wincanton in 12 months ago. Failed to recapture that level of form on 4 subsequent outings over the summer but having rejoined his former handler (with a hood back on) he was still in front when taking a final-fence fall at Chepstow a fortnight ago. Major player up 4 lb.

Form: 1/2327F-

Isocrate⁸⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 107

25/1

Minor promise over hurdles and with is chase debut easy to excuse (badly hampered) he reportedly returned lame when pulling up on February's return to action. In excellent hands but lots to prove.

Form: 522/48P-

Lermoos Legend^p¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-7| J: Lorcan Williams| T: M Bowen| OR: 103| CD

12/1

Notched fourth success here (2m, good to soft) in November and it may have been a case of the busy spell catching up with him when pulled up 10 days later. Never a factor on reappearance but fair chance he needed that.

Form: 3741PP-

Imperial Measure⁴³²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 88| BF

13/2

Hurdles winner at Newton Abbot in September 2023 and generally gave his running that season. Off 14 months ahead of chase debut and market probably best guide.

Form: 132624/

La Quarite^h⁴⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: S Bowen| T: M Bowen| OR: 84

15/8

Headstrong maiden over hurdles but seemed to run above himself when runner-up in maiden company in March. Since moved yards and he could be interesting switched to fences.

Jet Of Dreams³¹

Weight: 11-12| Age: 7

T: W Greatrex J: Brendan Powell

Forecasts

La Quarite (15/8), Jet Of Dreams (15/8), Baseline (2/1), Imperial Measure (13/2), Lively Citizen (7/1), Gower Prince (11/1), Lermoos Legend (12/1), Isocrate (25/1)

Having rejoined Matt Sheppard, GOWER PRINCE was still ahead when falling at the last at Chepstow a fortnight ago and assuming he's none the worse for that, compensation may well await. Jet of Dreams knows how to get the job done at this level so has to be a danger, along with Baseline, who surpassed his hurdles form at the first time of asking over fences last time.
