Successful on 4 of 6 starts in points prior to just failing at Wincanton on debut for present yard in October. However, consistency not his strong suit and best effort since when fourth of 6 at Ascot (23.8f, good to firm) 59 days ago.

Good record around here and won this last season off 3 lb higher. Never travelling well when a hollow second of 3 here last month but he's capable of bouncing back.

Resumed winning ways at Windsor in January and has continued in good form, respectable fourth at Fakenham weeks ago. Can go well again.

Thrived last summer, completing a Newton Abbot 4-timer over fences in September. Form nosedived after but firmly back on track returned to this venue when second over C&D 2 weeks ago and very much of interest again now.

Forecasts

Kick Up A Storm (9/4), Hold Your Fort (3/1), Planned Paradise (3/1), Investment Manager (7/2), Deise Aba (14/1)

Verdict

KICK UP A STORM disappointed at Doncaster when last seen but his profile over hurdles was a positive one overall and he should prove at least as good over fences. Course specialist Hold Your Fort looked back to his best when second over C&D 2 weeks ago and looks the obvious threat.

  1. Kick Up A Storm9/4
  2. Hold Your Fort3/1
  3. Planned Paradise3/1
