Sea Warrior^t¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Lorcan Williams| T: J Tizzard| OR: 105| C

6/5

Inexperienced but ultimately proved a different proposition sent chasing when an impressive winner at this track over 2¼m 2 weeks ago. 8 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent the follow up.

Form: 5F079-1

Sanitiser^b¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Mr Cian Murphy⁽⁷⁾| T: Jamie & Josh Moore| OR: 104| C

10/1

Flat bred but took pretty well to fences last season, landing 17f handicaps at Plumpton and this venue before short of room close home when second of 3 at Wincanton. Different tactics against him final start and he's fit from a spin on the level, albeit a low-key one. Blinkers back on.

Koenigsstern²²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: N J Gifford| OR: 103| C

4/1

Course winner who found only one too good in a pair of small-field handicaps to end last season. Has gone pretty well fresh in the past and Tom Cannon takes over for the first time.

Form: 325F22-

Constantinian³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Charlie Price| T: O Signy| OR: 99

7/2

Fairly useful bumper winner but lightly raced since and didn't really come up to expectations over hurdles. Usual tongue tie again left off on this chase debut.

Form: 1/243-P8

Mutley Crew²⁶⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 11-6| J: Harry Kimber| T: R Walford| OR: 97| BF| CD

10/1

Low mileage for her age and opened chase account at the third attempt here in December. Followed that with a near-miss on Boxing Day before showing improved form when quickly resuming winning ways at Wincanton. Fell early when last seen in February and she's entitled to need this.

Form: 3/7121F-

Glancing Back^h²³³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Lily Pinchin| T: Mrs E Bishop| OR: 75

12/1

Minor promise only so far but was in process of making a reasonable start to her chasing career until falling 2 out at Hereford in March. Off since and now goes up in distance. 4 lb out of the weights.

Forecasts

Sea Warrior (6/5), Constantinian (7/2), Ahanaglogh (7/2), Koenigsstern (4/1), Sanitiser (10/1), Mutley Crew (10/1), Glancing Back (12/1)

SEA WARRIOR surpassed his hurdling form at first time of asking over fences when a ready winner here 2 weeks ago and his follow-up claims appear to be bright. Ahanaglogh was on the up from his low base when last seen and is a threat on reappearance, along with Koenigsstern.
