Sun Racing Summer Jumps Championship Handicap Chase

Off time: 16:29 | Winning time: 6m 32.18s

Roxboro River^p¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Harry Atkins⁽⁵⁾| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 100

9/1

Fair hurdler who arrives on the back of 2 respectable runner-up efforts at Bangor and Warwick. However, he failed to show anything like that level in 2 previous starts over fences, and the stable’s hint of a revival in the latter half of May has since failed to materialise.

Form: 0-74722

Jeteye^p,t²⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 94

13/2

Notched a second Hexham hurdle win in game fashion in May and has shaped as if still in form both starts since. Didn't make much of an impact on his 2 previous outings over fences, but remains capable of better, with his current chase mark below his previous winning ones over hurdles.

Form: 5/36-143

Halfway House Lad^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: B S Hughes| T: James Moffatt| OR: 89| BF| CD

9/2

Made a successful stable debut in a 13-runner handicap chase at Hexham (3m, good) in early-May and didn't need to improve to follow up in 9-runner event over C&D (good, 6/5) later that month. Ran too badly to be true last time and Brian Hughes now takes over in saddle. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 366-11P

Wearelongterm¹⁵³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Danny McMenamin| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 86

18/1

Long-standing maiden under Rules who has been placed 3 times this season (twice over fences) but has run poorly on 2 of his last 3 outings. Others make more appeal.

Form: F32635-

Star Turn^b,t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr James Murray⁽⁷⁾| T: M Bowen| OR: 85

9/2

Returned from a 14-month absence with a pair of runner-up efforts over hurdles at Ffos Las in spring and stepped up on previous effort over fences when filling the same position in an 8-runner C&D handicap last month, beaten a length by Kingofthegame.

Form: 70P/2-22

Lights Are Green⁴²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Jonathon Bewley| T: G Bewley| OR: 83| CD

12/1

Stopped the slide after 7 months off when third over C&D in May and might've still been feeling the effects of a gruelling race there when pulled up at Hexham 3 weeks ago. Is generally one to avoid.

Form: P4PP-3P

Kingofthegame²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Ryan Mania| T: M Todhunter| OR: 82| CD

2/1

Has really got his act together this season winning a handicap hurdle at this course in May before reverting to fences to land a C&D handicap in June by a length from Star Turn despite his rider putting up 2 lb overweight. Well suited by this course and a bold bid looks assured on hat-trick attempt.

Form: 54-F311

Tell Me Again^t²²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 82

22/1

Showed first form over fences when 13½ lengths fifth of 7 to Zumbi in extended 21f handicap at this course last time but remains difficult to fancy.

Form: 33-U485

Judicial Review²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-7| J: Leah Noreci⁽⁷⁾| T: James Moffatt| OR: 79| CD

20/1

Has won 3 times at this track, including over this distance, but he's never been the easiest to catch right and has looked increasingly one to avoid of late despite tumbling mark.

Form: P9P-67P

Dreamings Free^h¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Charlie Price| T: D Bourne| OR: 73

40/1

Poor maiden hurdler not long with current yard. Makes chasing debut from 1 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 4/2380-9

Forecasts

Kingofthegame (2/1), Star Turn (9/2), Halfway House Lad (9/2), Jeteye (13/2), Roxboro River (9/1), Lights Are Green (12/1), Wearelongterm (18/1), Judicial Review (20/1), Tell Me Again (22/1), Dreamings Free (40/1)

KINGOFTHEGAME has built an excellent Cartmel record, and he looks hard to oppose in current form despite his recent 5 lb rise. Recent C&D winner Halfway House Lad was disappointing last time but looks capable of bouncing back with Brian Hughes in the saddle, whilst Star Turn is also respected after chasing home the selection here last time.
