Dixie Cowboy^p¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 92| CD

13/8

Stepped up on hurdles exploits when making a successful chase debut over C&D in November. Runner-up on 3 of his 5 subsequent starts in this sphere, including with cheekpieces on for the first time (retained) at Market Rasen recently. Strong candidate.

Form: 122562

Nonbinding^p³⁵⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Power⁽⁵⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 90| D

200/1

Won twice over hurdles for Gordon Elliott in 2022 but has shown nothing in 5 starts for present connections, the latest of which was over C&D last spring.

Form: 0PPP/PP-

Natural Ability^p,t²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Danny McMenamin| T: C Grant| OR: 86| CD

6/1

Finally got off the mark over C&D in November 2024 but hasn't come close to matching that level of form in 4 subsequent completions.

Form: 15F-453

Clean Getaway^p²²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Joe Williamson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 86| CD

5/1

Won 4 on the bounce (2 over hurdles and 2 in this sphere) in October/November 2024. Returned to form when runner-up back here during the autumn and, entitled to come on for last month's C&D spin (first run for 3 months), he could have a part to play having slipped to a potentially handy mark.

Form: 742245

Restandbethankful^p,t⁹⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-3| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Lizzie Quinlan| OR: 81| C| D

7/1

Irresolute performer who was pulled up in handicap chase at in November and again failed to fire when a well-held fifth over C&D on Boxing Day. Absent since and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 4604P5

Elusive Warrior^h,t1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: P W Wadge| T: A M Thomson| OR: 80

20/1

Little to shout about in bumpers/over hurdles, pulled up in a first-time hood at Newcastle on latest start 18 days ago. Hood retained and tongue strap now given a whirl, too.

Form: 0-7034P

Myfavouritesister^p,t¹⁸⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Charlie Maggs⁽³⁾| T: P Neville| OR: 76

5/2

Remains a maiden following a dozen starts in bumpers/over hurdles but, on the upside, he posted one of his better efforts when third of 9 in a Perth handicap hurdle (2½m, good to soft) in September. Possibilities if fully tuned-up/jumping passes the test now tackling fences.

Forecasts

Dixie Cowboy (13/8), Myfavouritesister (5/2), Clean Getaway (5/1), Natural Ability (6/1), Restandbethankful (7/1), Beep Beep Becky (8/1), Elusive Warrior (20/1), Nonbinding (200/1)

The most solid option is DIXIE COWBOY, who has largely acquitted himself well since scoring on his C&D chase debut and he remains on a plausible mark. Beep Beep Becky's form over hurdles leaves much to be desired but the fact that she was runner-up on her sole start between the flags augurs well ahead of this switch to the larger obstacles. She is second choice ahead of the down-in-the-weights Clean Getaway.
