Fairly useful chaser/hurdler for Paul Nicholls who was quite impressive in finally getting off the mark on British soil on third start for this yard at Hexham last month. 5 lb rise looks fair.
|
Useful at best but signs of decline last season and not much encouragement both starts this term. Handicapper continues to relinquish his grip and market support should be noted.
|
Took well to fences last season, winning back-to-back at Plumpton and Fontwell. Showed a willing attitude when making a winning return at latter track but needs to shrug off a pair of poor efforts.
|
Off the mark over fences when scoring at Kempton in October. However, not in the same form both starts since but this drop in trip will suit (all wins up to 2¼m).
|
Ex-French winning chaser. Placed a couple of times for this yard in 2018/19 and shaped like a non-stayer upped in trip at Fakenham when last seen in February. Likely to need this after 10 months off.
|
Veteran who ended last season with a pair of victories at up to 17f and better for return when 2 lengths third at Lingfield (20f) 15 days ago. Sure to give his running once again.
|
In good heart during the summer and quickly back to form when winning at Hereford in October. Not in same form at Ludlow last month but every chance he can bounce back to his best here.

Forecasts
Sao (5/2), Doitforthevillage (4/1), Flaminger (9/2), Commis D'Office (6/1), Fairway Freddy (13/2), Atlantic Storm (17/2), Finnegan's Garden (12/1)
SAO was quite impressive in finally getting off the mark on British soil at Hexham on just his third start for Rebecca Menzies last month, settling better than previously and quickly asserting on the run-in. A 5 lb rise looks manageable and he's taken to follow up. Atlantic Storm is feared most if putting a rare below-par effort behind him, ahead of Fairway Freddy.
