Getareason^t⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Nathan Moscrop⁽³⁾| T: R Menzies

11/4

Pretty useful hurdler/chaser for Willie Mullins/Paul Nicholls. 20/1, shaped as if back in form when travelling well for long way in one of these over C&D last week but Onthefrontfoot ahead in second.

Form: 07-3404

Kennedys Field^h⁸⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Jonathon Bewley⁽³⁾| T: G Bewley

100/1

Maiden hurdler who has made no impact in low-grade chases this season. Easily opposed.

Onthefrontfoot^h⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr| D

4/11

Fairly useful hurdler/chaser. Placed twice in similar events over C&D of late, finishing in front of the reopposing Getareason last week. Hard to beat.

Form: 34-3232

Plan Of Escape¹⁸¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Quinlan| T: M TodhunterWS

50/1

Modest hurdler. Well held on completed start in handicap chases at the start of season. Off 6 months. Makes bumpers debut. Likely vulnerable.

Form: 7/64P-8P

Shetland Bus^t¹¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Oakley Brown⁽⁷⁾| T: Justin Landy| BF

9/1

Fairly useful hurdler who wasn't disgraced in a couple of chases when last seen in the autumn. Placed in a bumper at the start of career.

Form: 148-847

Skyhill^h,t⁷⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: Mrs A C HamiltonWS

50/1

Notched 4 chase wins at modest level last winter but didn't return in the same form in November and best watched here.

Form: 1134-6P

Forecasts

Onthefrontfoot (4/11), Getareason (11/4), Shetland Bus (9/1), Article Fifty (40/1), Plan Of Escape (50/1), Fiddlers Bow (50/1), Skyhill (50/1), Kennedys Field (100/1)

A reproduction of the level ONTHEFRONTFOOT showed when second over C&D last week should see him go one better now. Getareason was 7 lengths behind the selection in fourth on that occasion and looks next best ahead of Shetland Bus.
