Selected odds by:

So Satisfied^p¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Ross Chapman| T: I Jardine| OR: 99

4/1

Dual chase winner on softer ground than this (acts on good). Back on his last winning mark, but yet to convince he stays quite this far. Interesting if he does after a better effort last time.

Form: 49-P572

Forever Dylan^p⁴⁹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Alain Cawley| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 95

20/1

0-12 and has not run since with Henry De Bromhead in October 2017, over hurdles. Chase form not as good as over hurdles, so fair bit to prove on stable debut.

Form: 995030-

Robin Deuz Pois^p1³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: P J Brennan| T: P R Webber| OR: 93

3/1

Career-best when 1L second at Market Rasen (3m) last time, when front pair were clear. Up 4lb, but has claims if first-time cheekpieces have a positive effect.

Form: 444232

Apache Pilot^p,t³⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 11-2| J: Dale Irving⁽³⁾| T: M A Barnes| OR: 89

11/1

On a handy mark again, but has been out of sorts in four starts this winter and was well held behind Robin Deuz Pois two starts ago. Best watched.

Form: 346P3U

Flabello^b⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Grant Cockburn⁽³⁾| T: Sean Conway| OR: 89

66/1

Nine-race maiden under rules and 1-19 in point-to-points. Beaten a long way back under rules last time and can be taken on.

Form: PP8PP-7

Alto Des Mottes^b⁵⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: H Hogarth| OR: 84

7/1

Inconsistent performer, but if he could return to the form of his Doncaster second (3m2f) in December, he would have claims. Has to put two poor subsequent runs behind him.

Form: 803266

Shaiyzar^p⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-9| J: Thomas Dowson⁽³⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 82| BF

9/2

Has run well in defeat several times this season, but with a record of 0-27, although he could pick up some prize money again, he is clearly vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 573422

Notonebuttwo⁵⁵

Age: 12| Weight: 10-7| J: K Yeoman⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J Parkinson & S Smith| OR: 80| CD

9/1

C&D winner who is on a losing run of 17. Has claims based on a couple of pieces of form this season, but can't be confident he will come up with that.

Form: F24P37

Scorpo^b1⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: C J Todd⁽⁷⁾| T: V Thompson| OR: 73

14/1

Well held in all three starts since a career-best here last month, which came over 2m. Blinkers now tried, but hard to fancy for the win.

Form: PP3443

Veauce De Sivola^t¹⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: Rachel McDonald⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss S E Forster| OR: 70

12/1

1-25 over fences, and both career wins have been on heavy. Better effort last time, but much more needed from 3lb out of the handicap.

Form: 396-894

Forecasts

Robin Deuz Pois (3/1), So Satisfied (4/1), Shaiyzar (9/2), Alto Des Mottes (7/1), Notonebuttwo (9/1), Apache Pilot (11/1), Veauce De Sivola (12/1), Scorpo (14/1), Forever Dylan (20/1), Flabello (66/1)

While there are slight stamina concerns over both So Satisfied and ROBIN DEUZ POIS, the suggestion is to chance the latter to get home after an improved performance last time. Shaiyzar can probably complete the frame again.
