Itsonlyrocknroll^h,t²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon| OR: 104

11/2

Opened hurdles account on last season's belated reappearance (first run following a wind op) at Wincanton in January. Shaped as if back in form when fourth at Kempton 3 weeks ago. Chase debut.

Form: 13P-644

Tis Fantastic^t³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: T Scudamore| T: M Blake| OR: 100

5/2

Made promising start over fences when opening account in Stratford handicap chase (19.4f), making most and jumping well. Good fourth at Uttoxeter since and drop in trip shouldn't be a problem.

Form: 22P-P14

Legal Ok²³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr P York⁽³⁾| T: P York| OR: 88

5/2

Point winner who clearly has a race in him, runner-up over 2m at Plumpton on last 2 runs last term and not disgraced when fourth on Stratford return. May strip fitter and back over fences now.

Form: 24422-4

Scartare^b1⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-5| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Mrs R Gasson| OR: 83

7/2

Long-standing maiden who can usually be relied upon to run his race, as he did when fourth at Uttoxeter last time. Change of headgear but others make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 2-23334

Gallic Geordie^h1,t1³⁵¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: R Patrick| T: S Drinkwater| OR: 80

33/1

No form in bumper and over hurdles. Off 11 months. Makes chase/handicap debut. Hooded/tongue strap on for 1st time.

Form: 6/69P-

Clondaw Robin^p²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: James Best| T: Miss Z C Davison| OR: 76

15/2

Creditable third over C&D a year ago. Lost his way for the rest of the season but latest third of 5 over C&D on return was at least something to build on. 2 lb out of weights.

Form: 134PP-3

Sustainable Star²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: David Noonan| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 71

33/1

Poor form over hurdles/fences and a long way out of the handicap here.

Form: 8/4307-6

Forecasts

Tis Fantastic (5/2), Legal Ok (5/2), Scartare (7/2), Itsonlyrocknroll (11/2), Clondaw Robin (15/2), Gallic Geordie (33/1), Sustainable Star (33/1)

TIS FANTASTIC has already developed into a better chaser and is set to make another bold bid back down in trip. Legal Ok should on for his return and rates the main threat back over fences, while Scartare should be in the mix again.
