Ethical Packaging Novices' Handicap Chase

Off time: 14:05 | Winning time: 6m 11.20s

Roe And Co^t²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Joe Anderson⁽³⁾| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 98| D

9/4

Fetched £58,000 after landing a maiden point in 2023 and, though he hasn't shown much in a trio of maiden hurdles, it would be no surprise to see him play a leading role now making his chase/handicap debut off a realistic opening mark.

Form: C1/P8-4

Jaunty Viking^t⁴⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 11-4| J: James Best| T: B Eckley| OR: 88| C

22/1

Successful off a higher hurdles mark here, but that was back in June 2021 and he checked out in worrying fashion back from 30 months off at Stratford.

Form: 5P754/P

Frankie Faulkner⁴²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Isabel Williams| T: Evan Williams| OR: 82| D

15/2

Newton Abbot hurdles winner in July 2023 and posted best effort to date in this sphere when going close off a significantly higher mark at the same course in September of that year. However, below par since and is opposable back from a 14-month absence. Yard also runs Imperial Measure.

Form: 4P36P/8-

Imperial Measure³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 76| BF

4/1

Modest hurdles winner who produced arguably his best effort to date over fences when third in a 4-runner Newton Abbot handicap (21f, good to soft) last month, leaving the strong impression that this step up in trip will be in his favour. Major player.

Form: 4/54333

He'llstopatthetop³⁸⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: Harry Kimber| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 74

12/1

Would have probably won but for departing at the last at Fontwell (3¼m, good) in May, but he hasn't repeated that in a handful of subsequent appearances and is opposable back from a 12-month absence on debut for new yard.

Form: 5/F4653-

Mini Fortune^p¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Ben Jones| T: T Faulkner| OR: 71| D

13/8

Prolific winning pointer who has reached the frame in each of his half-a-dozen starts over fences. finishing a solid third of 10 at Uttoxeter (3m, good to soft) recently. Solid claims.

Form: 3-43443

Mawlood^b,t¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: G Howell| OR: 60

100/1

Winless since 2021 and record over fences stands at 0-18. Losing run looks set to continue from 12 lb out of the handicap here.

Forecasts

Mini Fortune (13/8), Roe And Co (9/4), Imperial Measure (4/1), Radharc Na Slaine (4/1), Frankie Faulkner (15/2), He'llstopatthetop (12/1), Jaunty Viking (22/1), Mawlood (100/1)

Former point winner ROE AND CO may well leave his low-key maiden hurdle form a long way behind now switched to fences for the bang in-form Jamie Snowden yard. It will look sigificant if there's support for him in the ring and the 7-y-o gets the nod ahead of Mini Fortune and Imperial Measure.
