Failed to progress over hurdles early last year and not much of an impact switched to fences this season.
|
Irish import who has proved a different proposition equipped with a tongue strap for this yard, completing hat-trick at Lingfield in December. Disappointed at Plumpton last month but that was his first start in 11 weeks. Back up in trip.
|
Made a winning start in this sphere at Uttoxeter in November and backed it up with a good second at Market Rasen. Produced a laboured effort at Ffos Las since but that was on heavy ground. Worth another chance.
|
Maiden with just one decent effort over hurdles this season. Goes up in trip now chasing (runner-up sole start in Irish points).
|
Winning pointer who's looked one with issues under Rules, typically failing to see things out when remote second of 3 at Ffos Las 16 days ago.
|
Losing run is mounting up and yet to convince with his jumping in this sphere. Step up in trip may help.
|
Has struggled since returning from a lengthy absence and not one to be interested in.
|
Well held over hurdles and offered little sent chasing at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve. In excellent hands, though, and may do better with Skelton back in the saddle.
|
Dual winning Irish pointer who caused a major surprise from 5 lb out of the handicap when winning at Leicester and confirmed that was no fluke when following up at Warwick last month, again impressing with her jumping. Likely to make another bold bid.
|
Low-mileage 9-y-o who failed to make an impact in 4 starts over hurdles and well held switched to fences last 2 starts.
|
Maiden but shaped like the best horse at the weights when second in this headgear at Ffos Las last month, tiring final 100 yds after kicking on early. Big shout if over that.
|
Remains with little form. 6 lb out of the handicap.
|
Little solid form over hurdles or fences. 11 lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts
Voleur De Terres (7/4), Getaway King (9/2), Steal The Moves (9/2), Girls Best Friend (11/2), Dyno Dave (10/1), Storming Nelson (10/1), Italian Spirit (20/1), Tech That (20/1), Thickthorn Tom (25/1), The Moonlight Man (33/1), Arctic Stream (33/1), Sans Of Gold (100/1), Alderley Charlie (100/1)
VOLEUR DE TERRES confirmed her win from out of the handicap was no fluke when following up at Warwick and should make a bold bid for the hat-trick. Steal The Moves looked rejuvenated by the fitting of cheekpieces when runner-up at Ffos Las and rates the main threat ahead of Girls Best Friend, who might have found heavy ground against him last time.
