Horse silk
Lake Takapunap36
Age: 9|  Weight: 12-1| J: Lucy Alexander| T: J Ewart| OR:  122
25/1
Chase/hurdles winner when trained in Ireland but failed to really impress on his stable/GB debut although he probably needed the run. Dropped 6lb for that display he ought to find this easier grade more to his liking.
2
Horse silk
Mr Mcgop25
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-10| J: Lorcan Murtagh(3)| T: D McCain Jnr| OR:  117| BF
9/2
Winning hurdler who has yet to get everything to click over fences despite some respectable and sound efforts. His run when third at Kelso last time probably summed him up although he has been dropped a further 2lb; one to consider.
3
Horse silk
Kilbrew Boy51
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-9| J: Bryony Frost| T: B I Case| OR:  116| BF
10/3
His Wincanton win over this trip showed an improvement on his chasing debut although he was helped by being fitter and in a thinner race. Failed last time out when making numerous errors at Fakenham; needs to bounce back.
4
Horse silk
Well Smitten55
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-6| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR:  113| C
7/2
Showed something like his old form when winning here last time (2m3f) taking advantage of a much reduced mark for his new yard. Will be well suited by this extra furlong and remains well treated on his old form off this mark.
5
Horse silk
Cave Topt112
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-6| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR:  113
16/1
Looks totally out of sorts having failed to complete in his last four starts and his form figures resemble a bad Scrabble rack. Hard to see how he can be supported on current form; tongue-tie goes on for the first-time.
6
Horse silk
Native Robin42
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-6| J: Nick Scholfield| T: J Scott| OR:  113| C| D
8/1
Consistent sort in general but hasn't shown much his last two runs running a very poor race when last seen at Wincanton in first-time cheekpieces (removed here). Back on his last winning mark over a more suitable trip; not without a chance.
7
Horse silk
Est Illic13
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-0| J: B S Hughes| T: T Symonds| OR:  107
11/4
Irish point-to-point winner; fair form over hurdles, better than his form figures would suggest over fences. Both chasing starts here over 2m3f have shown promise, not seen to best effect last time, makes some appeal up in trip.

Forecasts

Est Illic (11/4), Kilbrew Boy (10/3), Well Smitten (7/2), Mr Mcgo (9/2), Native Robin (8/1), Cave Top (16/1), Lake Takapuna (25/1)

14:23 Doncaster - 6 February 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The move to the Sam England stable certainly rejuvenated WELL SMITTEN who won well here over 2m3f last time looking as though he was back to his best. Raised 6lb for those exploits he’s still well handicapped on his old form and this longer trip should suit. Mr Mcgo deserves to win a race over fences but may find himself squeezed out again. Lake Takapuna takes a drop in class and may show more on his second start for the Ewart yard whilst Est Illic remains one to keep in mind over fences.
  1. Well Smitten
  2. Est Illic
  3. Mr Mcgo
