Tea For Two¹⁴⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Lizzie Kelly⁽³⁾| T: Mrs J Williams| OR: 142WS

11/4

Won the Grade 1 Kauto Star Novices' Chase at Kempton (3m) in 2015 but that form is a long way off. Finished second of five last time out at Newton Abbot (2m5f) back in May. Has since had a wind-op. Has to be considered from this mark.

Form: 36PUP-2

Walt^p,t³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Reed⁽³⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 137| C

9/1

Won a Grade 3 contest at Kempton (3m) back in February. Has failed to follow that up in three starts since, including seasonal reappearance at Uttoxeter (2m4f) where he was sixth of seven runners. Should come on for last run.

Form: 121P6-6

Mellow Ben¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 135| C

4/1

Broke his maiden over fences at the third attempt last time when he prevailed at Worcester (2m4f). Has gone up 10lb for that win but he remains open to improvement. One for the shortlist.

Form: 72-3821

Kentford Heiress⁴³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: Kevin Jones⁽³⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 131| CD

12/1

Was in good form earlier this year over hurdles and fences. Came home a long way down the field last time though at Stratford (2m6½f) where her jumping let her down. Has gone down just 1lb so she will need to improve.

Form: 71-1130

Soupy Soups^p⁹^{(ex 7)}

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: R T Dunne| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 122

7/4

Was impressive last time when he scored by 8L at Perth (3m). Is dropping down in trip here but he has had success around distance before. Has won off this latest mark over hurdles. Leading contender.

Form: P-20721

Fingerontheswitch^p²⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-5| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁷⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 121

6/1

Scored three starts ago at Worcester (2m7f). Has been well-beaten on his last two appearances, including latest at Stratford (2m6½f) where he was last of five runners. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 33-P135

Forecasts

Soupy Soups (7/4), Tea For Two (11/4), Mellow Ben (4/1), Fingerontheswitch (6/1), Walt (9/1), Kentford Heiress (12/1)

SOUPY SOUPS was a comfortable winner last time at Perth over 3m and although he is dropping distance in trip here, he can follow up as there is likely to be much more to come from him. Tea For Two looks past him Grade 1 days, however, he returns to action for the first time since having a wind-op here and should be in the mix from this mark, while Mellow Ben will be looking to build up on his win at Worcester but he may have to settle for place prize money this time around.
