5/4

Successful over hurdles at Wetherby in December 2021 and made a winning return/chase debut at Bangor (20.3f, heavy) in November, albeit left in front soon after last. Just a fair fourth at Exeter next time and let down by jumping at Haydock since but this looks a good chance to bounce back.

4/1

Successful in handicap chases at Fontwell and Huntingdon last season, though ended the campaign with a couple of below-par efforts and similar story in 3 starts over hurdles/fences this winter.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr James King| T: O Murphy| OR: 110

7/4

Workmanlike when getting off the mark over fences at Worcester in June. Failed to build on that since, though offered something to work on under considerate handling when third at Uttoxeter after 7 months off and big shout in this field.

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Ms Laura Ward⁽⁷⁾| T: N B King| OR: 91

14/1

Fair 2m hurdles winner last season but he arrives out of sorts (poor debut over fences in December).

Forecasts

Garincha (5/4), Fabrique En France (7/4), Alto Alto (3/1), Luckofthedraw (4/1), Go Fox (14/1)

GARINCHA shaped as if still in decent heart before falling at the ninth at Haydock last time and this looks a good opportunity for him to resume winning ways. Fabrique En France caught the eye on his comeback at Uttoxeter and is a clear next best.
