A three-time chase winner last season. Has shaped better than the result on both starts this summer and back on his last winning mark. Respected.
|
Course winner who arrives on the back of good runner-up efforts around 2m at Ffos Las and this venue last month. Just as effective over this sort of trip. Should go well again.
|
Useful chaser in his prime for Phil Kirby but is more than 3 years without a win and fourth is the best he's managed in 6 outings for current yard. Didn't get the chance to show whether blinkers would make a difference last time, falling around halfway.
|
Fair chase winner for Tom George in 2022. Not seen under Rules since a fall at Ludlow in December 2023 but he has placed in points for new connections this spring.
|
Hurdle winner for Tom Symonds but well beaten in his 2 outings over fences, latterly finishing a remote fourth at Market Rasen on last week's first outing for Ryan Potter. Needs to leave that well behind with the cheekpieces he's worn in recent outings left off now.
|
Market Rasen winner last summer and also runner-up over C&D (both under Sean Bowen). Lost his way for Ryan Potter in the autumn but potentially well treated if bouncing back to form for new stable after a break. Market support could prove significant.
|
C&D win last August on only his second outing over fences. Ran as if needing his first outing since when down the field over 25.5f here 5 weeks ago. Back down in trip now and Brian Hughes takes the ride.
|
In good form at Hexham this summer. Placed over C&D in 2023 but recent efforts at this venue haven't been so good.

Forecasts
Unwanted Attention (2/1), Defence Witness (5/2), Lermoos Legend (11/4), Sean Og (9/2), Judicial Review (6/1), Follow Your Arrow (6/1), Greenways (16/1), Whoshotthesheriff (25/1), Derracrin (25/1), Jobesgreen Lad (150/1)
It might be worth taking a chance that UNWANTED ATTENTION bounces back to form with a bang on his first outing for Mickey Bowen. Last month's course runner-up Lermoos Legend completes a strong hand for the stable. Sean Og and last month's C&D scorer Defence Witness are others likely to have a say.
