Good record at Cheltenham and far from disgraced when fourth in a 3m handicap there on penultimate start. Third in this race back in 2018, but much higher in the weights nowadays and looks vulnerable.

5/1
Useful bumper/hurdle winner who shaped as if needing first run for 10 months when fading ninth of 17 in 3m Haydock handicap in November. Still early days for this 7-y-o and he needs considering.

Useful chaser who hasn't disgraced himself in strong races on both completed starts this season. Latest start run in this sphere was back in April 2019, but mark looks fair and he's not discounted.

Winner of first 3 starts under Rules last term, namely a bumper and two small-field novice hurdles. Decent fourth on return/handicap bow at Cheltenham (21f) and likely to appreciate this stiffer test.

Left reappearance effort well behind when landing a competitive 12-runner Cheltenham handicap (3m) in good style last month. 7 lb rise tolerable and he probably has more to offer.

Back to form the last twice, building on encouraging Sandown effort in December when resuming winning ways at Doncaster (24.4f) later that month. However, more needed up 5 lb in this tougher race.

Better than ever last term, successful in this sphere at Chepstow prior to Welsh National success. Reappearance effort in a Cheltenham cross-country event was respectable and he commands respect.

Talented hurdler/chaser, but absent since misfiring in an Ascot handicap chase back in November 2018, so his wellbeing has to be taken on trust.

Bumper winner who showed a cracking attitude to land a couple of novice hurdles at Doncaster last term. Disappointing on first attempt at 3m on reappearance and now goes handicapping in headgear.

Uttoxeter novice winner on final start of last term and has acquitted himself well on 2 of his 3 starts in handicaps this time round. However, needs to raise his game a touch in order to take this.

Winner of novice hurdles at Leicester and Uttoxeter during 2018/19 campaign, but missed whole of last season and Chepstow reappearance effort in December was hardly promising. Cheekpeices applied.

Placed in Southwell novice events won by the very promising Barbados Buck's prior to handicap debut success at Uttoxeter (23.3f). Now 8 lb higher in a much stronger race, but he's hardly exposed.

Bolted up at Uttoxeter last month, but put firmly in her place by Mr Harp there 10 days later and this is a big ask, particularly bearing in mind that she's 4 lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Come On Teddy (9/2), Imperial Alcazar (5/1), Mr Harp (7/1), Espion (7/1), Flemcara (8/1), Kepagge (9/1), Potters Corner (10/1), Ardlethen (14/1), Saint Dalina (16/1), The Macon Lugnatic (16/1), Tobefair (22/1), The Captains Inn (28/1), Geordie Des Champs (66/1)

15:35 Warwick - 16 January 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The manner of COME ON TEDDY's success in a similarly competitive handicap at Cheltenham suggests that this 7 lb higher mark should be within reach, particularly given that he remains open to improvement. Tom George's charge is taken to follow up, perhaps at the chief expense of Mr Harp, who looked good when scoring at Uttoxeter last time. Imperial Alcazar and Potters Corner are others to consider.
