Held his form well for the most part last season. Looked to have gone off the boil but he bounced back when winning at Ludlow last month, albeit in a race that rather fell apart. Opposable back up in the weights.
|
Veteran who got back on track in refitted blinkers when second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow. Not disgraced at Warwick since and needs considering off lower chase mark.
|
Consistent over hurdles and found immediate improvement sent chasing in the autumn, successful over C&D before finding another chunk of progress to follow up at Ludlow. Let down by jumping next 2 starts but potentially a strong contender back from a break.
|
Consistent rather than progressive in handicaps since winning a novice hurdle at Uttoxeter last summer. Interesting chasing debutant but probably needs to improve on his hurdles form.
|
Maiden hurdler but opened chase account at the fourth attempt at Kempton (20.5f, good to soft) in November. Excellent comeback when close second at Hereford last month and should go well again.

Forecasts
Baskerville (13/8), Climbing (3/1), Ballybegg (4/1), Nickelforce (11/2), Almazhar Garde (15/2)
BALLYBEGG is potentially interesting off his lower chase mark now that he's back on track so gets the vote over Climbing and Nickelforce.
- Ballybegg4/1
- Climbing3/1
- Nickelforce11/2
