Age: 8| Weight: 12-6| J: Mr D Maxwell| T: Mrs R Loxton| OR: 133| D

4/9

Quality hunter chaser, made it four on the spin with success at Wincanton last time (form franked by the second since) and once again has ideal conditions. Trip no issue either and every chance of making the nap hand.

Form: 781111

Stellar Notion⁷³

Age: 11| Weight: 12-6| J: Jack Andrews⁽³⁾| T: T M Frost| OR: 142| D

4/1

Very useful chaser, capable of quality form for Tom George and 2-2 in hunter chases this year, both at Larkhall (only finisher in a match latest). Looks the one to catch and can't be allowed too much rope on the front.

Form: 04-1P11

Delegate^p,t⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 12-2| J: Mr Ed Glassonbury⁽³⁾| T: J Guerriero| OR: 137| D

5/1

Useful chaser for Keith Dalgleish, and put in a better effort in his second hunter chase at Ludlow last time, only giving best late on. Trip/ground once again ideal, and may be coming into form, so not discounted if taking another step forward.

Form: 3146-P2

Flaming Charmer^t¹²⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 12-2| J: C J Todd⁽⁷⁾| T: G Slade-Jones| OR: 121| D

20/1

Not a bad sort for Colin Tizzard, if a little hard to win with. Tends to reserve better efforts for Chepstow these days, and would probably appreciate a bit of rain more than the rest, so a bit to do after a break on first start for this yard.

Form: 545-518

Forecasts

Monsieur Gibraltar (4/9), Stellar Notion (4/1), Delegate (5/1), Flaming Charmer (20/1)

Flaming Charmer looks a little outclassed but you can make some sort of case for the other three. MONSIEUR GIBRALTAR just gets the nod as this trip might just suit him a bit better than Stellar Notion and Delegate, both perfectly capable on their day but have a little to find on form with the selection today.
