Age: 9| Weight: 12-6| J: Miss Lucy Turner⁽³⁾| T: A B Leyshon| OR: 125

33/1

Multiple chase winner in France who probably needed the run when fifth of 8 in hunter at Hereford (20.9f, good to soft) on UK/stable debut 10 days ago. Tongue strap back on. This will reveal more.

Form: 736-775

16/1

Fair chaser for Henry Oliver who had a wind op prior to showing little on Wincanton hunter debut in March. Runner-up in a brace of points subsequently but work to do back under Rules. Cheekpieces on.

Form: 11/37-22

2/1

Fairly useful chaser who posted his best effort in hunters when second in 10-runner event at Cheltenham (16.2f) in April. Has doubled his tally in points recently and must be taken seriously.

Form: 412-212

Honour The Master¹¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr Edward Rees⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams

12/1

£14,000 7-y-o, City Honours gelding. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt in October and rates an interesting Rules debutant.

33/1

Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f) when last seen in July 2019. First run for yard after leaving Tim Vaughan and looks best watched.

Pure Vision^t⁴⁴⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr William Biddick| T: A J Honeyball| OR: 120| CD

11/4

Useful chaser at his best. Not seen for 14 months but his stable is well capable of getting one fit after an absence, so needs considering.

Forecasts

Envoye Special (2/1), Hazzaar (85/40), Pure Vision (11/4), Honour The Master (12/1), Doc Carver (16/1), Jaunty Flyer (33/1), Dalahast (33/1)

The vote goes to ENVOYE SPECIAL, who arrives fit and well from the pointing sphere and posted his best effort in hunter company when second at Cheltenham in April. Honour The Master made his second start in points a winning one in October and rates an interesting Rules debut, with Hazzaar also respected on his hunter debut.
