Jolyjump¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Caoilin Quinn| T: G & J Moore| OR: 100| CD

5/1

Made second start over fences a winning one over C&D in November. Hasn't managed to reproduce that form in 3 outings since but claims if a return to Southwell sparks a revival.

Form: 4413P4

Harel Du Marais¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: S Bowen| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 100| CD

5/4

Back to form to take advantage of a reduced mark on his C&D stable debut a fortnight ago. Raised 5 lb but retains handicapping scope on old form.

Form: 55-4631

Chestnut Pete^t¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: Shane Quinlan⁽³⁾| T: Katy Price| OR: 96

40/1

Fair maiden hurdler/chaser for Sophie Leech but no show in 2 comeback runs for new yard recently, including 28 lengths last of 6 to Harel Du Marais over C&D 14 days ago.

Form: U/222-96

Gwennie May Jem³²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Harry Skelton| T: D Skelton| OR: 80

13/8

Made a promising start to his chase career when second of 9 in 2m Leicester handicap last month. Open to improvement and leading claims for top stable.

Form: 774342

Eric Carmen^p,t¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-6| J: Jack Hogan⁽³⁾| T: G Hanmer| OR: 78| C

9/1

Unreliable individual. Got off the mark over fences at Bangor last month but only sixth over hurdles here since.

Form: 2P4316

Forecasts

Harel Du Marais (5/4), Gwennie May Jem (13/8), Jolyjump (5/1), Eric Carmen (9/1), Chestnut Pete (40/1)

GWENNIE MAY JEM has the potential to build on his recent Leicester chase debut and is narrowly preferred to last-time-out C&D scorer Harel du Marais.
