22/1
Winning hurdler who appeared to excel himself when making a successful chase debut here in January. However, unable to back that up in 2 subsequent starts. Yard also saddles Cheque En Blanc.

Twice a winner here and added to his tally when landing a handicap chase at Fontwell on penultimate start. Showed the other side of his character over hurdles at Wincanton last time, though.

3/1
Ended long losing run from reduced mark when scoring over C&D in January (third victory here). Both subsequent efforts have been creditable and it's not hard to envisage a bold show from this 8-y-o.

Veteran chaser who got back on track after an absence when winning 3m handicap chase at Uttoxeter in November. Well below par both starts since, though, and others make more appeal.

Now 3 lb lower than for his Hereford breakthrough success last spring, but this season's efforts have not been at all inspiring.

Has taken well to fences, going close on debut in this sphere at Hereford prior to a wide-margin C&D success in first-time cheekpieces 6 days ago. Will prove a tough nut to crack under a penalty.

Aheadfullofdreams (10/11), I See You Well (3/1), Cheque En Blanc (17/2), Optimistic Bias (11/1), Ivilnoble (11/1), Twenty Twenty (22/1)

14:45 Plumpton - 11 April 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The progressive AHEADFULLOFDREAMS got off the mark at the second attempt in this sphere over C&D recently and, with the prospect of even better to come, he'll take some stopping under a penalty. Cheque En Blanc is capable when on-song but, like stablemate Twenty Twenty, he failed to fire last time out and multiple course winner I See You Well rates the main danger.

  1. AHEADFULLOFDREAMS (IRE)
  2. I SEE YOU WELL (FR)
  3. CHEQUE EN BLANC (FR)
