Arrives well below par, though fared better after wind op in cheekpices when fifth of 25 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (27.6f) 19 days ago. Still hard to make a case for.

Made it 2-4 here this season with career-best win in 3m handicap chase (5/1) here 35 days ago, responding well to pressure. Up 6 lb but not taken lightly in current mood.

Veteran is now eleven runs since last win in 2017, though still in good rhythm when falling 15th in handicap chase (50/1) at Haydock (28.4f, heavy) 58 days ago. Not easy to assess at present.

Back on song of late, scoring at Newcastle in December before second of 8 in handicap chase at Kelso (26.2f) 20 days ago. Not ruled out despite a 4 lb rise.

Arrives in good form, third of 6 to Strong Economy in 3m handicap chase here 35 days ago when making effort earlier than ideal. Possibilities.

Ex-French winning chaser who arrives in excellent form over fences for current yard, clear second at Catterick (25f) 21 days ago. Form has been franked so holds leading claims off unchanged mark.

9/4
Bids for a hat-trick after wins here and at Hexham, getting up late to score over 24.2f 40 days ago. This step up in trip will play to his strengths so well in the mix despite 7 lb hike in weights.

13:55 Ayr - 18 January 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

EVENT OF SIVOLA has yet to get his head in front for Mark Walford, but can race off the same mark as when an excellent second at Catterick 3 weeks ago so is taken to gain a deserved success. Asking For Answers will find this step up in trip right up his street so rates a big threat in his hat-trick bid, while Buddha Scheme rates a solid place prospect once more.
