25/1

Gradually warmed to his task under a more forceful ride when capitalising on much-reduced mark at Wincanton (25f, heavy) in December. Backed that up when third from 5 lb higher mark over C&D a month later. Should be competitive again.

9/1

Bettered form he showed over hurdles when making a winning chase debut at Huntingdon (19.9f) in October. Not so good at Uttoxeter a month later but bit more like it when fourth at Doncaster (19f) 45 days ago. Step up in trip may help now.

Form: 23-3164

Age: 9| Weight: 11-11| J: M Goldstein| T: G & J Moore| OR: 97

80/1

Career best when winning 5-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (25.7f, good, 6/5) 2 years ago but showed nothing on first run since at Fontwell last month. This ought to reveal more.

Form: 3PU21/P

Dusautior^p1,t¹⁰⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Henry Brooke| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 91| DWS

5/2

Winning Irish pointer who offered little in trio of quick-fire novice/maiden hurdle runs late last year. However, longer trip promises to suit now handicapping with his good yard boasting a good record in this sphere. Cheekpieces added to tongue tie. Had wind op.

Form: 133-809

Galway Mahler^p,t²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Ben Jones| T: K Jewell| OR: 91| CD

10/3

Improved model in recent months, opening his account over C&D in January and followed up in good style at Lingfield (23.5f, heavy) 3 weeks ago, always holding on. Expected to be bang there again up 5 lb.

Form: PP3P11

Supasunrise^p²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Finn Lambert⁽⁵⁾| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 90| C

10/1

Course winner who doubled career tally at Warwick (20f) in November and largely gave his running subsequently, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Hereford (20.9f) 4 weeks ago. Steps back up in trip now.

Form: 31P224

Martalmix'jac^p,t¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Alex Edwards| T: Mrs M Rowley| OR: 87

17/2

Largely held form since opening chase account at Stratford (19.5f) in the autumn, proving his stamina when bagging 4-runner Leicester handicap chase (22.7f) 15 days ago. Not dismissed up 3 lb.

Form: 522621

Doyens De Ante^p,t⁵⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Charlie Hammond| T: M Young| OR: 86| CD

28/1

In good form last spring, winning back-to-back handicaps at Chepstow/over C&D. Behind when unseating at Fontwell in May though, and offered little back from 8 months off when pulled up at Hereford (25.2f) in January. May well be sharper for that now returned to this venue.

Form: 21-14UP

Family Pot^p,t²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: C Brace| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 83| D

11/1

Form has been up and down so far this term but fallen in weights and step back in right direction when third at Hereford (20.9f) last month, shaping as though this step back up in trip would suit. One to bear in mind again.

Form: 3-37003

Est Illic^p⁵⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-8| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: S-J Davies| OR: 80| D

12/1

Pair of 2m wins at the end of 2020 but has drawn a blank since. Seemed to only consent to run on when race was all but over when third of 10 in handicap at Leicester (22.7f) in January and others more appealing on balance.

Form: 3-62P43

Deja Rouge^p,t1³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Lee Edwards| T: Kate Hazard| OR: 79

250/1

Regressive form for Gordon Elliott and offered little for present stable, including on chase debut here (19.8f) 5 weeks ago.

Form: P5-PP0P

Boys Of Wexford^p²²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: David Noonan| T: Henry Oliver| OR: 78

15/2

Immediate improvement for the switch to fences last term, scoring on debut in this sphere at Uttoxeter and placed next 3 starts. Low-key efforts initially this term but much more like it (in first-time cheekpieces) when third at Market Rasen (19f) 3 weeks ago. Not discounted from this lowly mark.

Form: 3-P4P63

Bolberry Down^p,t⁴⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Rex Dingle| T: K Jewell| OR: 73

40/1

Poor/unreliable maiden hurdler who has offered little both starts over fences 6 months apart.

GALWAY MAHLER has looked an improved model in recent months, following up his C&D success in January at Lingfield 3 weeks ago, and his latest weight rise shouldn't be enough to prevent another bold bid to complete the hat-trick. Fellow last-time-out winner Martalmix'jac and Twenty Twenty are others to consider. Boys of Wexford is another needing to be factored in following a much better effort at Market Rasen 3 weeks ago.
