Age: 8|  Weight: 11-13| J: James Davies| T: C J Down| OR:  121
9/2
Very lightly raced for an eight-year-old, and he almost got off the mark at the second attempt over fences when a neck-second at Wincanton (3m1f; heavy) on Boxing Day. Top-weight to defy, but unexposed and cheekpieces may yield more out of him.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-12| J: R P McLernon| T: J & A O'Neill| OR:  120
7/2
Yet to win a race in six attempts over fences, and he has work to do to reverse form with Broadclyst, despite the 10lb pull in the weights with him. Drops into a class 4 chase for the first time, but first-time cheekpieces need to revitalise him.

Horse silk

14/1
Drops back into this grade after pulling-up in competitive events the last twice, most recently the Classic Chase at this track earlier in the month. Tends to run well at this track, but she is still 3lb above her last winning mark.

20/1
Mark continues to tumble, but this veteran was beaten 30-length into third at Uttoxeter (3m; heavy) when last seen in November. 6lb below last winning mark, and yard are going well. Needs to step up significantly on his efforts this season though.
5
Horse silk
Lord In Redp39
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-5| J: Jack Tudor(7)| T: Christian Williams| OR:  113
28/1
Overall profile suggests he prefers fast ground, and he has failed to complete the last twice (pulled-up on both occasions). Also, has a career-high mark to defy and others have less negatives surrounding them.
6
Horse silk
Irish Octavep14
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-4| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Mrs R Gasson| OR:  112| C
25/1
Still 5lb above last winning mark, and was in trouble prior to falling two from home on is return from a short break at Ludlow (3m1f; good to soft) two weeks ago. Something to prove off the back of that.

Horse silk
Coopers Square21
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-13| J: S Bowen| T: T H Weston| OR:  107| C| D
7/1
Gone right off the boil the last twice after previously looking an extremely reliable/consistent sort. Tailed off at Wincanton (3m1f; good) last month, and was then pulled-up at Exeter (3m; soft) on New Year's Day when struggling badly.
8
Horse silk
From The Heartt41
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR:  106
9/4
Raised 7lbs by the handicapper for opening his account over fences at Taunton (2m7f; soft) last month. Only had the two starts over fences though, so open to plenty more improvement and stable are currently enjoying a 28% strike-rate.
9
Horse silk
High Counselp22
Age: 11|  Weight: 10-3| J: Alexander Thorne(7)| T: G Hanmer| OR:  97| C| D
11/2
Chasing a hat-trick after scoring over 3m at this track 22 days ago. Form of that recent victory has since been franked by the third. However, he has been raised 6lb for that victory and has never won off a mark as high as this before.

Forecasts

From The Heart (9/4), Fleminport (7/2), Broadclyst (9/2), High Counsel (11/2), Coopers Square (7/1), Goodnight Charlie (14/1), Goodtoknow (20/1), Irish Octave (25/1), Lord In Red (28/1)

14:10 Warwick - 22 January 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

From The Heart stepped up on what was a likeable chasing debut to go one better when opening his account over fences last month. He is only a six-year-old, so it is unlikely that a 7lb rise will halt his progress. The one to stick with looks to be BROADCLYST though who is incredibly unexposed for an eight-year-old. He has stepped up markedly on his performances over hurdles, and the form of his second last time out looks the strongest on offer. He can make it third time lucky over the bigger obstacles. Fleminport should get closer to the selection given the swing in the weights after their recent meeting, but he looks vulnerable given his record over fences of 0-6.
  1. Broadclyst
  2. From The Heart
  3. Fleminport
