JMI Planning 10 Years In Business Mares' Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Off time: 15:30 | Winning time: 6m 27.62s

That's Nice¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: H Cobden| T: N J Henderson| OR: 117| D

10/3

Point winner who won 2 of her 3 starts over hurdles. However, not made the brightest of starts to her chasing career, on second run following a breathing operation prior to her latest third in 4-runner handicap here 2½m 3 weeks ago. Back up in trip now and beginning to look a weak finisher.

Form: 1/752P-3

Regal Renaissance²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: S Bowen| T: Jack Jones| OR: 113

11/5

Done majority of her racing at shorter trips, but overcome an errant round of jumping (went repeatedly left) when ending losing run at Ludlow (2½m, good) 25 days ago. Could benefit from a recent stable switch and booking of Sean Bowen firmly catches the eye. One to note.

Form: 23F42-1

I Am The Moon^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 102

85/40

Didn't take to chasing last winter but successful over hurdles thereafter and showed benefit of recent run when runner up in that sphere at Stratford (3¼m) 18 days ago. Return to forcing tactics may see her to good effect now returned to larger obstacles.

Form: U61P4-2

Queens Wish²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: R T Dunne| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 95| D

7/2

Benefited from step up in trip when making second chase start a winning one at Southwell (3m) in November. Never better than mid-division when fourth back at Southwell 24 days ago.

Form: 13343-4

Forecasts

I Am The Moon (85/40), Regal Renaissance (11/5), That's Nice (10/3), Queens Wish (7/2)

REGAL RENAISSANCE produced an errant round of jumping when resuming winning ways at Ludlow on her latest outing, yet she knuckled down well to outbattle the runner up on that occasion. Now starting out for a new yard boasting a healthy strike rate over jumps last season with Sean Bowen booked, she appeals as a big player again. I Am The Moon takes narrow preference over That's Nice to emerge next best.
