9/4

Useful hurdler/chaser for Nicky Henderson who won on C&D hunter debut in April 2023. Pulled up in this race last year on his only subsequent start under Rules but he did win a point 19 days ago.

Form: 42-45P1

Amenon¹²

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Henry Bailey⁽⁷⁾| T: Henry Bailey| OR: 99| D

9/1

Fair hurdler/chaser at best. Lost his way in Ireland but found a weak race to open his account in this sphere at Huntingdon (3m, good to soft) last May. Should be sharper for a recent run in a point.

Form: 46P-164

Cooldine Bog^v⁷

Age: 12| Weight: 11-12| J: Miss Amber Jackson-Fennell⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss A Jackson-fennell| OR: 93| D

11/1

Won a small-field point last month but has struggled to make an impact in hunters and could only manage a well-held fifth at Leicester last Friday.

Form: P4P215

Go Go Geronimo^t,v1²⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr T Chatfeild-Roberts⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Kelly Morgan| OR: 109| D

8/13

Multiple point winner who posted fairly useful form when runner-up in a pair of hunters in early 2022. Not at that level when third at Stratford last May but arrives in form from points and probably the one to beat.

Form: 132122

Forecasts

Go Go Geronimo (8/13), Janika (9/4), Amenon (9/1), Cooldine Bog (11/1)

GO GO GERONIMO has been in reasonable form in the pointing field lately and can make it fifth time lucky in hunters, most likely at the main expense of former C&D scorer Janika.
