Cabhfuilfungi^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Ryan Mania| T: J Groucott

12/1

Had wind op before creditable fourth of 7 in bumper at Market Rasen 21 days ago. Much respected.

Form: 4-54

Duke Of Deception²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Toby Wynne⁽⁷⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero

9/1

Fair bumper performer but he came in only fifth of 6 at Fontwell (17.7f, soft) 26 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: P3545

Glory Bridge³²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: B S Hughes| T: D McCain Jnr

3/1

€40,000 3-y-o, Fame And Glory gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Maria's Benefit. Pulled up in a point but he's in good hands and no surprise to see him step forward.

Form: P-

Royal Sam⁷⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams

4/1

£42,000 5-y-o, Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Half-brother to 9f-1¼m winner Artful Prince. Successful sole outing in points in December, so he's a player here.

Form: 1

The Tablet⁸⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Joe Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby

16/1

£15,000 6-y-o, Trans Island gelding. Half-brother to modest chaser Easy Bucks. Dam point winner. Won point bumper on debut in December and commands plenty of respect now.

Form: 1

Tik Tok

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Jack Tudor⁽³⁾| T: Christian Williams

13/8

Sri Putra gelding. Half-brother to 7 winners, including smart hurdler/useful chaser Laurina. Appeals on paper, but market can prove a good guide for this newcomer.

Form:

The Scorpion King³²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Max Kendrick| T: O Signy

12/1

20/1, fourth of 13 in bumper at Kempton (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 32 days ago, racing lazily. Needs to step forward.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Tik Tok (13/8), Glory Bridge (3/1), Royal Sam (4/1), Duke Of Deception (9/1), The Scorpion King (12/1), Cabhfuilfungi (12/1), The Tablet (16/1)

The market should reveal plenty here, but newcomer ROYAL SAM appeals on paper and is fancied to add to his point win in December. Fellow points scorer The Tablet is next on the list with another debutant Glory Bridge not discounted either.
