Dual winner over fences in France and bettered previous efforts on these shores returned to this sphere when second in a weak 5-runner Fakenham handicap (21f, good) in May. However, well held both subsequent starts and now makes her debut for another new yard.
|
Has returned to form with a vengeance since joining James Owen and equippped with a visor, making it 3-3 for the yard with minimum fuss in a Uttoxeter handicap chase (2½m, good) on Tuesday, just a day after scoring over hurdles at Worcester. Hard to oppose under a penalty.
|
Proved pretty consistent at a lowly level since switched to chasing and, helped by the favourite's weak finish, finally opened his account under a positive ride at Perth (3m, good to firm) last month. Didn't do much wrong when third at Stratford next time and should give another good account.
|
Winning pointer who made it second time lucky over fences for Tim Easterby, landing a Market Rasen novices' handicap in good style on Boxing Day 2023. Best effort since when runner-up at the same course last spring, but subsequent absence is naturally a concern. One of 3 runners for her yard.
|
Back-to-back winner over fences/hurdles in April and added to his tally when accounting for 10 rivals in a Worcester handicap hurdle (23f, good) recently. Just 1 lb higher back over fences and should make his presence felt, granted a clean round of jumping (didn't jump well on latest chase start).
|
Immediate improvement with a visor enlisted last month, bagging back-to-back C&D handicap chases within the space of 9 days. Failed to deliver when bidding for the hat-trick at Fontwell recently, though, and now tried in first-time blinkers.
|
Successful in Irish points in October 2022, but she hasn't shown much under Rules thus far.

Forecasts
Shantou Lucky (4/9), McGregors Charge (11/2), Blackacre (9/1), Pooroldmackley (10/1), Sheeka Supreme (20/1), Benny Baloo (22/1), Kate Madrik (50/1)
SHANTOU LUCKY is another advertisement for the prowess of the James Owen yard when it comes to breathing new life into out-of-form recruits from rival stables. Indeed, the 8-y-o is unbeaten in three quickfire appearances for new connections and he is a sizeable step ahead of the handicapper here (officially 9 lb 'well-in') following his fautless display back over fences at Uttoxeter on Tuesday. Mcgregors Charge gets the nod ahead of Pooroldmackley for forecast purposes.
- McGregors Charge11/2
- Pooroldmackley10/1
