Fair winner over hurdles in France who only narrowly failed to open his account on these shores in small-field handicap chase at Carlisle 25 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and possibilities with a repeat.
|
Low-mileage mare who advanced her form in first-time blinkers when scoring at Perth (3m) last April. Returned from 10 months off with a good second at Carlisle but disappointed back up in trip there last month.
|
Winning pointer who went the right way as a hurdler and made bright start over fences when winning first 2 starts. Quickly back on track fitted with a tongue strap when second here 12 days ago but stamina is a slight concern up in trip.
|
£100,000 purchase having finished runner-up in sole Irish point. Hasn't gone on from a promising chase debut at Ayr in November but yard in much better form of late and there were encouraging signs back at Ayr last time.
|
Still a maiden but has made a decent start over fences, runner-up to a subsequent winner over C&D when last seen in November. Not taken lightly.
|
Encouragement when fourth of 19 in a handicap hurdle at Ayr in January but failed to build on that when only mid-field back over fences at Carlisle. A while since he's threatened to win a chase and others preferred.
|
Notched third victory over fences at Ayr (3m) in January but not in same form either start since.
|
Made a winning chasing debut over C&D last season but has struggled for form this campaign.

Forecasts
Always A Reason (6/4), Visual Impact (5/1), My Lady Elektra (11/2), Raceview Road (7/1), Kahavari (17/2), Cowboy Cooper (10/1), Lady In The Park (11/1), Similar Story (22/1)
ALWAYS A REASON has his stamina to prove up in trip but he was a good second in a better race than this here 12 days ago so must still rate a big player if over that effort. Visual Impact could be on the way back given how she shaped at Ayr, while My Lady Elektra has made a bright start in this sphere.
