1/1
Vastly improved since being fitted with a tongue strap, completing a four timer (and third C&D win) in August. The fact 4 fences were omitted probably counted against him (fluent jumper) when 3½ lengths second behind Breaking Cover back here since and expected to be much closer this time.

5/2
Dual hurdles winner earlier this season who arrives on the back of chase victories over C&D/Worcester in recent weeks. However, certainly hasn't looked a natural in this sphere so he'll need to keep the errors at bay if he's to bring up the hat-trick from career-high mark.

9/4
Runner-up completed starts in points and progressive form over hurdles, taking his record to 2-3 in handicaps in 10-runner contest at Plumpton (15.9f) when last seen in April. Rates an intriguing contender now his attentions switch to larger obstacles on return, with further progress anticipated.

Forecasts

Centara (1/1), Synchronist (9/4), Breaking Cover (5/2)

Verdict

3-time C&D winner CENTARA has thrived over fences this summer winning 4 times and was probably inconvenienced by the four omitted fences (very fluent jumper) when finishing 3½ lengths behind re-opposing Breaking Cover here 4 weeks ago. He's taken to reverse those placings on these revised terms. Chase debutant Synchronist was upwardly-mobile over hurdles when last seen and confidence behind him on return would look significant.

  1. Centara1/1
  2. Breaking Cover5/2
  3. Synchronist9/4
