KSR Lighting, The Ultimate Lighting Solutions Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Off time: 17:46 | Winning time: 6m 46.61s

Ballynaheer^p,t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: J J Burke| T: David Dennis| OR: 107| CD

18/5

C&D winner who has built up a healthy strike rate over fences in the last 12 months, showing benefit of his comeback run when resuming winning ways at Market Rasen (3m) 3 weeks ago. That was a weak race but this 7-y-o commands respect nevertheless on the back of a 3 lb rise.

Gold Clermont^p⁴¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Chad Bament⁽⁷⁾| T: A Irvine| OR: 105| C| D

11/2

Four-time winner over fences (including here) who dispelled some lesser efforts in that sphere when third in mares handicap hurdle over this trip here 6 weeks ago. Task is to now back that up returned to chasing.

Form: 5-249P3

Carrigmoorna Rowan¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: James Davies| T: R Potter| OR: 96

4/1

Fair hurdler/chaser for Harry Fry who failed to justify support when fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Exeter (19f) 17 days ago, rallying from 2 out. Eased 2 lb though and not discounted back up significantly in trip.

Form: 244455

Edgewell^p¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Harry Reed| T: Nick Scholfield| OR: 91

3/1

Hasn't always convinced with his attitude but reacted well to a change of headgear of late, winning back-to-back 25f Hereford handicaps refitted with cheekpieces in recent weeks. This looks a little more demanding in hat-trick bid but not ruled out in current mood.

Sweet Nightingale^t¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: P Gundry| OR: 88| BF

9/4

Hurdles scorer who came good at sixth attempt over fences at Exeter (3m) in March. Better than bare result when third in follow-up bid at Plumpton (3¼m) 3 weeks ago and she remains of interest at this level.

Forecasts

Sweet Nightingale (9/4), Edgewell (3/1), Ballynaheer (18/5), Carrigmoorna Rowan (4/1), Gold Clermont (11/2), Moonlit Potter (11/2), Le Galli Bier (6/1)

Exeter scorer SWEET NIGHTINGALE had excuses when third on her most recent start at Plumpton 3 weeks ago and, still relatively unexposed at staying trips, she's selected to resume winning ways. Ballynaheer and Gold Clermont are just a couple of potential threats in a tricky heat.
