Age: 8| Weight: 12-7| J: Harrison Beswick⁽⁵⁾| T: R Bandey| OR: 112

15/8

Successful Irish pointer who confirmed the promise of his chasing debut when winning 12-runner handicap at Plumpton (19.8f) 24 days ago, again jumping soundly and going with enthusiasm. More to come.

Form: 1/P5621

Demon D'Aunou^h⁶³

Age: 8| Weight: 12-6| J: William Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 111

7/1

Hinted at a revival under a considerate ride at Wincanton last time and is potentially well handicapped now, so he's one to note in the betting.

Arcade Attraction^t⁷^{(ex 7)}

Age: 7| Weight: 12-5| J: Niall Moore⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 103

2/1

Attracted support and resumed winning ways back over fences in 11-runner handicap at Ffos Las (19.4f) last week. Has to be respected under 7 lb penalty.

7/2

Went close to opening his chase account at Market Rasen (19.2f) when last seen in October (final run for Tom Symonds). However, returns 4 lb higher for new yard, so more will be needed.

Form: 26-43U2

16/1

Fair chaser at his best but not easy to catch right and folded quickly here last time. Others more persuasive.

FLECK IVY impressed with his jumping when making his second chase start a winning one at Plumpton last month and looks capable of following up with further improvement on the cards. Demon d'Aunou is down to a good mark and needs monitoring closely in the betting.
