10/3

Useful novice hurdler last season, including third in 3m Aintree Grade 1 at Aintree. Has matched that form in defeat first 2 starts over fences but reportedly amiss in Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day (bled).

Form: 213-246

The Jukebox Kid²⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Jones| T: B Pauling| OR: 137| CD

4/6

One from 2 over hurdles and he made a big splash when successful on handicap/chase debut at Carlisle on return. Didn't look so potent back left-handed at Cheltenham but firmly back on track when winning C&D handicap 4 weeks ago. More to come.

Form: 1/13-141

Western Knight^t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Jack Tudor| T: J Tizzard| OR: 136| C

3/1

Went off the boil over hurdles following a promising start but left his chase debut form behind with victory in 3-runner maiden at Haydock and followed up under a penalty at Doncaster. This tougher assignment likely to find him out, though.

Form: 2U8-411

Forecasts

The Jukebox Kid (4/9), Thomas Mor (10/11), Western Knight (4/1), Crest Of Fortune (9/2)

THOMAS MOR acquitted himself really well when runner-up in the Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day and this looks an excellent opportunity for him to resume winning ways under a penalty at a track that plays more to his strengths. The Jukebox Kid has been much improved switched to fences this season and is a clear next best having won a C&D handicap in good style last month.
