12/1

Disappointed on final start for David Bridgwater at Uttoxeter (3m) in the spring and similarly offered little returning from 8 months off for present yard at Kempton (3m) over Christmas. Had wind op ahead of this and betting may prove an informative guide.

Form: UP23-7P

Wake Up Early^p³³

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Charlie Hammond| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 115

3/1

Bright start for this yard last spring, adding to his tally at Market Rasen (27.5f) in May. Posted a good second of 5 in handicap chase at Wincanton (25.1f, good) 33 days ago so needs considering.

1/1

Won a 3m handicap hurdle at Ascot in November and made a successful switch to fences at Doncaster (3¼m). Very good third in North Wales National at Bangor since. Player nudged up just 1 lb. Engaged 4.10 Haydock Wednesday.

10/3

Both career wins have been registered over this C&D, the latest in first-time blinkers a month ago when scoring by 32 lengths. Pulled up last time though so needs to get back on track.

Forecasts

The Questioner (1/1), Wake Up Early (3/1), Sir Apollo (10/3), Captain Tommy (12/1)

THE QUESTIONER has taken well to fences and looks the way to go on the back of his very good Bangor third. Wincanton runner-up Wake Up Early appeals as the one to give the selection most to do.
