Harlem Soul³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Beau Morgan| T: S Hosie| OR: 100

15/2

Successful twice in Wincanton in December 2022 but more miss than hit since and he's opposable.

Form: 6436U8-

Phil De Pail^p1,t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 100

4/1

Hasn't shown a great deal in 3 starts since returning from a lengthy absence in February but makes his chase debut for a yard in flying form. Interesting in a change of headgear.

Form: P23/350-

Hobie¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: J Martin| T: David Dennis| OR: 94| D

15/2

Irish point winner who landed a 2m Worcester maiden hurdle last May. Bettered previous efforts in this sphere when runner-up at Taunton (21.7f, good) recently and definite chance if able to build on that here.

Form: 4P5P52-

The Late Legend^b,t¹⁴⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-3| J: Lewis Stones| T: T H Weston| OR: 89| CD

20/1

Pulled up on each of his last 3 starts and he makes little appeal.

Form: 607P/PP-

Supasunrise^v1³²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: Finn Lambert⁽³⁾| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 89| C

4/1

Largely creditable efforts since latest success over 2½m here in November, putting in a better round of jumping than is often the case when third at Hereford last time. Claims if responding well to the first-time visor.

Form: P22443-

Toad Of Toad Hall²¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Ned Fox| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 84

25/1

Successful twice at Fontwell last year but he ran poorly there when last seen in October and he's none too reliable.

Form: P/P151P-

The Knot Is Tied^p,t²³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: Alice Stevens| T: R Potter| OR: 84

25/1

Fair winner over hurdles who returned to form from out the blue to open chase account at Lingfield (2m, good to soft) in December 2022. Form has dipped badly since, though, and little impact in 2 starts on the Flat last monh.

Form: PP25/P6-

Time For A Pint⁸⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Benjamin Macey⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 84| D

11/8

Irish point winner who justified support to open his account over fences at the second attempt at Catterick (25.2f, soft) in January. Shade disappointing when only fourth at Hereford last time but he's a key player nonetheless.

Form: 5551U4-

Forecasts

Time For A Pint (11/8), Phil De Pail (4/1), Supasunrise (4/1), Hobie (15/2), Harlem Soul (15/2), Kooky (12/1), Dunworley (16/1), The Late Legend (20/1), The Knot Is Tied (25/1), Toad Of Toad Hall (25/1)

Though rather disappointing at Hereford last time, TIME FOR A PINT left the impression that there was better to come when opening his chase account at Catterick in January and he is well worth another chance. Hobie and Supasunrise complete the shortlist.
