11/2

Walked over last week and perhaps not the force of old. This trip seems likely to stretch him and others preferred.

Form: 734331

Highest Sun^t³⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: H Cobden| T: C L Tizzard| OR: 132

10/3

Useful chaser who has become well handicapped and will find this easier than the slogs he's encountered the last twice. Could go well.

Form: 57-544P

Another Crick²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: P J Brennan| T: Noel Williams| OR: 132| D

11/4

Missed 22 months having ended 2018/19 on the up but good signs in competitive handicap chases the last twice and could have more to offer.

Form: 211/246

Awake At Midnight^b²⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 130

4/1

Up 10 lb for his Huntingdon romp in November (blinkered first time) and backed it up with a fine second at Kempton last month. Can go well again if keeping the mistakes down.

Form: 42/5-012

Defi Sacre^t²³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: James Best| T: R Hobson| OR: 125

5/1

Racked up a hat-trick in 2m handicap chases in December 2019 and good efforts the last twice. Stays this longer trip and could be a player.

Dustin Des Mottes¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: W T Kennedy| T: S-J Davies| OR: 125

50/1

French import yet to win on these shores but was in the process of running well back from a wind op when unseating 5 out at Sandown a fortnight ago. Needs to back up that promise now.

Form: 3-2836U

Mystical Clouds⁸⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: J M Quinlan| T: J Butler| OR: 123| D

16/1

Tricky sort who won similar event at Kempton last season. Promising start for new yard on comeback but well beaten twice since. Bit to prove.

Form: 441-465

ANOTHER CRICK has run with promise in competitive handicap chases the last twice and could resume winning ways back in these calmer waters. Highest Sun and Awake At Midnight are a couple of the other players.
