Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson| OR: 134| C

1/1

Useful, dual winning hurdler who shaped better than heavy defeat behind Gelino Bello would suggest on return/chase debut at Exeter (24.2f) in December, all but coming down seventh and eased when not fluent 2 out. Remains a good prospect in this sphere.

Form: 22115-2

Coconut Splash¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 131

5/1

Maiden hurdle winner who has shown useful form in defeat over fences, running close to his best when 4 lengths third of 7 in 19f Wetherby handicap on reappearance in October. Beaten some way out at Cheltenham (20.6f) 15 days ago so must bounce back quickly up in trip.

Form: 2/332-3P

Jet Plane^t²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 126| CD

13/8

Winning hurdler who readily surpassed his chase debut effort when running out an emphatic winner of a C&D handicap in November. Things went wrong from early stage in Lincolnshire National subsequently and he's worth another chance on balance.

Form: 30P-51P

Forecasts

City Chief (1/1), Jet Plane (13/8), Coconut Splash (5/1)

JET PLANE was on the backfoot from an early stage in last month's Lincolnshire National at Market Rasen, yet it was hard not to be impressed with his facile C&D victory previously and he gets the narrow vote to bounce back with the prospect of better still to come in this sphere. City Chief, who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests on his respective return/chase debut at Exeter, can emerge as the chief danger.
