3/1
Successful 3 times over hurdles and notched second win in this sphere when accounting for 6 rivals at Perth (2½m, soft) in September. Creditable placed efforts both outings since and this step back up in trip rates a likely plus here.

5/2
Four-time point winner who surpassed his hurdles form when making a winning handicap chase debut at Wetherby (24.2f) 21 days ago, only prevailing inexperience preventing him running out a more decisive winner. Remains unexposed and big shout up 6 lb.

Struck at the second time of asking for Evan Williams in 2m Hereford novice hurdle last month. Struggled to make an impact returned to this sphere when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Plumpton (19.8f) 12 days ago. Steps back up in trip now.

6/4
No great shakes over hurdles/on the Flat in Ireland but has upped his game for new yard, gaining reward for string of runners-up efforts when winning 5-runner handicap chase at Ludlow (23.8f) 24 days ago, leading approaching last and drawing clear on Flat. Player once more.

9/1
Won twice here earlier this year, latterly a C&D handicap in March and ended campaign with solid fourth of 9 in handicap chase (3/1) at Bangor (24.1f, soft) in April. Looked rusty and never figured after 7 months off when pulled up at Uttoxeter (20f, heavy) 5 weeks ago.

Forecasts

Superbolt (6/4), Latenightrumble (5/2), Peejaybee (3/1), Wild Side Of Life (5/1), Nine Nine Nine (9/1), D'jo Dela Barriere (16/1)

13:25 Leicester - 28 December 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

LATENIGHTRUMBLE found only prevailing inexperience preventing him running out an even more decisive winner when taking a 10-runner handicap chase at Wetherby 21 days ago, and with further progress in the offing, he makes plenty of appeal in his follow-up bid. Fellow last-time-out winner Superbolt heads up the dangers, with Wild Side of Life another not dismissed lightly having been well backed on his chase debut at Musselburgh 4 weeks ago.
