Al Roc^p,t¹¹

Age: 11| Weight: 12-1| J: Philip Armson⁽⁵⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 121

16/5

Best efforts for this yard when winning at Newton Abbot and Fakenham last month. Not disgraced under a penalty here 11 days ago but more needed if he's to quickly resume winning ways.

Form: 832-118

Ecu De La Noverie^b¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D Maxwell⁽³⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 120

13/2

Useful chaser earlier in his career. Still some way short of that form when third in hunters at Leicester/Newbury last 2 starts but it was at least a step back in the right direction. Change of headgear.

Form: 34/483-3

Caddyhill³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Sean Quinlan| T: J Candlish| OR: 119

11/1

Made successful chase debut for new yard at Sedgefield in September. Mostly disappointing since, however, jumping poorly at Huntingdon latest.

Form: 13523-4

Flamboyant Joyaux¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Callum Bewley| T: Paul Robson| OR: 109| D

3/1

Bagged 2 handicap chases at Worcester and Kelso last autumn. Back to form when just denied at Kelso 11 days ago despite a very slow start. Can make amends off the same mark.

Form: 114P-52

Red Royalist^p²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: C Gethings| T: S Edmunds| OR: 105| D

13/8

Back-to-back novice hurdle winner in 2019, Failed to justify support on his first 2 outings back from a 15-month absence last season and also a disappointing favourite in April. Shaped better than bare result when third on chase bow at Bangor last month.

Form: 32/742-3

Forecasts

Red Royalist (13/8), Flamboyant Joyaux (3/1), Al Roc (16/5), Yccs Portocervo (7/2), Ecu De La Noverie (13/2), Caddyhill (11/1), Ornua (25/1)

FLAMBOYANT JOYAUX did very well to go so close at Kelso 11 days ago given how much ground he lost at the start and can make amends off the same mark. Last year's winner Yccs Portocervo is feared most in first-time headgear.
