Age: 10| Weight: 12-2| J: C O'Farrell| T: L Lennon| OR: 122| D

8/1

Made a promising seasonal reappearance when finishing fourth at Perth (2m4f, good) earlier this month. Races off a mark 3lb higher than when winning at Market Rasen (good-to-soft) on his penultimate outing.

Form: 51351-4

10/1

Good second over an extended 1m7f at Southwell (good) on his penultimate outing. Well held fourth subsequently and likely more needed if he's to take this contest.

Form: 421P-24

The Clock Leary^t1²⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 12-2| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 122| D

14/1

Winner of a 6lb higher mark at Perth (3m, good-to-soft) last September. Below that form in two completions this term and wears a tongue tie for the first time.

Form: 1P5P-44

Swingbridge^b,t⁵⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: R Johnson| T: G Elliott| OR: 118

6/1

Made the frame in four consecutive outings at the start of the year but fell subsequently and finished well beaten on his return from a break in a handicap hurdle in May. Back over fences in this contest.

Form: 3232F-0

Workbench^p,t²⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 117| D

8/1

Useful horse on his day but has proved a disappointment so far this spring. Handicap mark is falling as a result and races off a mark 6lb lower than for his latest chase success.

Form: 14-6068

Vinnie Red^t⁵⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Adam Wedge| T: F O'Brien| OR: 115

8/1

Chase winner in December 2016 but had just five starts since including two in point-to-points. Well in on his old form and back in handicap company having finished a poor fourth in a 2m7f hunter chase at Worcester (good-to-soft) in May.

Form: 13P/3-R4

Mont Royale^p,t³⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-8| J: Aidan Coleman| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 114| D

20/1

Struggled in three starts since returning from a break. Handicap mark is falling as a result and market support would be interesting in this contest.

Form: 4PF5-79

Modeligo^p,t⁵⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Stan Sheppard⁽³⁾| T: M Sheppard| OR: 113| C| D

16/1

Winner of two of his last three starts most recently over 2m1f at Stratford (good) in May. Returning from a break here and interesting despite having to race off a 7lb higher mark.

Form: P521-61

Ever So Much^p²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: R P McLernon| T: B Haslam| OR: 108| C| D

4/1

In great form so far this season winning three of his four starts including in handicap chases over this trip at Hexham (good) the last twice. Bold show likely despite a 10lb rise in the weights.

Form: 501-411

Zolfo²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 105| BF| D

7/2

Made a winning return from a long break when successful over an extended 2m4f at Bangor (good) in May. Not beaten far in two subsequent outings and an interesting runner once more.

Form: F64-123

Forecasts

Zolfo (7/2), Ever So Much (4/1), Swingbridge (6/1), Workbench (8/1), Vinnie Red (8/1), I'm An Izz Wizz (8/1), McCabe Creek (10/1), The Clock Leary (14/1), Modeligo (16/1), Mont Royale (20/1)

EVER SO MUCH has been in great form in recent times and he can record a fourth win in his last five starts by taking this handicap chase. The selection has the ground in his favour and can see off Swingbridge who makes a return to fences while third place can go the way of Zolfo who receives weight from all of his rivals.
