Form: 11-1221

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Fern O'Brien⁽⁵⁾| T: M Osborne| OR: 111

14/1

Hereford maiden chase winner for Olly Murphy in January 2021 but struggled under Rules since and recent point exploits don't sugest he's likely to fare much better on hunter debut.

5/1

Only minor impact in a couple of hunter chases in Ireland in 2021 but was a fair hurdler at the start of his career and has won several points since joining this stable.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Miss Olive Nicholls⁽⁷⁾| T: G Nicholls| OR: 122

11/8

Juvenile hurdle winner back in 2020. Three point wins more recently and made a promising start to his hunter career when second over 3m at Exeter last month. Hooded first time. Hard to beat.

Form: 1/21112

Sine Nomine¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr John Dawson| T: Fiona Needham

2/1

Showed some promise when fourth on Cheltenham hunter debut last April. Back to winning ways in the pointing field recently and likely to give a good account of herself here.

Forecasts

Viroflay (11/8), Sine Nomine (2/1), Precious Bounty (5/1), Kaproyale (8/1), Port Of Mars (14/1)

VIROFLAY made an encouraging start to his hunter chase career when second at Exeter and should take a bit of stopping here. Sine Nomine, a point winner this month, shaped nicely on her previous hunter chase outing last spring and can give the selection most to think about.
