10/3

Raised his game equipped with blinkers over hurdles, producing a dominant display when doubling his tally at Market Rasen (23f) last July. Seen only twice since, shaping much better than distance beaten suggests on return at Cheltenham last month. Interesting chase debutant.

5/1

Emphatic winner of 19.3f Catterick handicap hurdle in February 2022. First run since and seemed to find a combination of the trip (3m) and absence all too much when pulled up 4 out on chase debut at Wetherby in March and this should reveal more.

The Wrekin²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Alice Stevens⁽⁷⁾| T: H D Daly| OR: 113

5/4

Three-time winner of novice hurdles in 2021. Missed whole of last year but stepped up with each outing since returning, displaying plenty of encouragement when second on chase debut at Ludlow (23.8f) 24 days ago. Open to improvement in this sphere.

Form: 756/632-

Supervisor¹⁷¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-7| J: Ned Fox⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 99| BF

3/1

Low-mileage 9-y-o who remains a maiden but going best and looked likely winner prior to departing 4 out at Ludlow (20f) in November. Absent subsequently but he's evidently on a good mark and definite claims if seeing out this 3m trip.

Forecasts

The Wrekin (5/4), Supervisor (3/1), Landen Calling (10/3), Universal Folly (4/1), Inishbiggle (5/1), Farouk De Cheneau (5/1)

An interesting race despite the small field with the narrow vote in favour of SUPERVISOR. He again shaped well (looked likely winner) when falling 4 out when last seen at Ludlow in November and, in the hope this trip doesn't stretch him, he can prove his mark a lenient one. Universal Folly should appreciate this step back up in trip and is feared, with The Wrekin also worth a second look.
