Morning Spiritp57

11/2
Has dipped to an attractive mark, now 9 lb below that off which he opened his chase account at Carlisle in November 2022. However, he hasn't really threatened since and he finished well held after 4 months off at Stratford in March.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-13| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| OR:  117| CD
5/2
Hurdle winner who stepped up on chase debut when scoring over C&D in January and quickly dispelled a lesser effort when runner-up in a first-time visor at Doncaster (3m) in March. Possibilities if headgear has desired effect once more.

Son Of The Sommeb46
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-11| J: Harry Bannister| T: T Lawes| OR:  115
4/1
Hurdles/chase winner who ran again ran well on stable debut when second of 8 in handicap chase at Newbury (22.4f) in March. The way he kept on then suggests this return to 3m will suit and he's worth considering.

Taste The Fearb14
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-8| J: Luke Scott(5)| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR:  112| CD
3/1
Well-served by fitting of first-time blinkers when cashing in off much-reduced mark over C&D 2 weeks ago, asserting from 3 out. Rider's claim off sets his weight rise and big shout provided headgear has desired effect once more.

4/1
Irish point winner who made a winning debut over hurdles at Hexham (20f) back in the autumn. Hasn't kicked on from that subsequently, including when fourth of 5 on chase debut at Huntingdon (23.6f) in March.

100/1
Successful twice in 3m handicap chases here in early-2022. Form patchy since and has temperament issues these days, so hard to fancy returning to the larger obstacles from miles out of the weights after a 4-month break.

Forecasts

Ernest Gray (5/2), Taste The Fear (3/1), Minella Double (4/1), Son Of The Somme (4/1), Morning Spirit (11/2), Lough Salt (100/1)

17:12 Southwell - 7 May 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

TASTE THE FEAR was perked up no end by the fitting of blinkers when cashing in off his much-reduced mark over C&D 2 weeks ago. With his rider's claim off setting his rise in weights, he looks a live player again provided the headgear has the desired effect once more. Son of The Somme, back up in trip, and Ernest Gray are others to consider.
