Selected odds by:

Eceparti¹⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 105

17/2

Losing run is mounting up and well below par when a remote fourth at Warwick last time, going in snatches. Others arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 3F-3234

Airtothethrone^t²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Charlie Price⁽³⁾| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 104| BF

7/2

Placed in both Irish points and bright start under Rules, unsurprisingly improving for switch to chasing when narrowly on top close home at Taunton (23f) in December. Good second at Chepstow last time. Another bold show likely.

To Be Sure⁴³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 100| BF| CD

9/1

Hasn't covered himself in glory in 4 starts over fences this season, finishing a well-held seventh at Chepstow last time. Cheekpieces worn on that occasion are left off.

Form: 14-3P47

Patient Owner¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: David Noonan| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 92| BF

6/1

Promise when placed on first 2 chase starts and big player if a very poor run at Chepstow last time can be forgiven. The cheekpieces he wore then are quickly discarded.

Form: 66-523P

Reign Suepreme^p¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: James Best| T: Mrs N S Evans| OR: 91| D

20/1

Point winner. Hasn't progressed as might have bene hoped under Rules but latest Plumpton third was a step back in the right direction and gives him something to build on.

Form: 3PPB83

Twilight Glory^p,t³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 86| BF| D

7/1

Career best when winning 12-runner handicap chase at Lingfield (23.5f, good) in February but not in anything like the same form when a distant third at Wincanton since. Bounce back needed.

Form: 6-65213

Bucks Dream^t³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Ben Jones| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 85

2/1

Placed twice in 3m handicap hurdles here this year and capable of playing a prominent role if taking to fences at the first time of asking.

Form: 34-6363

Gibberwell^b1¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: Max Kendrick| T: J Coulson| OR: 80

12/1

Won a maiden hurdle in Ireland in autumn 2020 but has failed to make a siginificant impact in handicaps hurdles/chases for this yard, pulling up at Hereford last time.

Form: P794FP

Forecasts

Bucks Dream (2/1), Airtothethrone (7/2), Patient Owner (6/1), Twilight Glory (7/1), Eceparti (17/2), To Be Sure (9/1), Gibberwell (12/1), Reign Suepreme (20/1), Tudors Treasure (25/1)

AIRTOTHETHRONE looks the most solid one here on the back of a good second at Chepstow 3 weeks ago. Patient Owner ran a stinker last time but will be a threat if back to the level he showed in similar events prior to that. Peter Bowen chase newcomer Bucks Dream completes the shortlist.
