8/13

Won 3 times over hurdles for Charlie Longsdon in 2023. Yet to match that form for his new yard this term but he was running well when unseated rider 3 out in 2m2f Kempton handicap chase 9 days ago. Leading claims off an unchanged mark.

Form: 7-8533U

The Gypsy Davey²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Adam Wedge| T: Evan Williams| OR: 109| BF| C

5/2

Winless over fences after 8 attempts but has consistently reached the frame and shaped as if in need of the run after 5 months off in 2m Chepstow handicap last time. Not discounted with that run under his belt.

Form: 222434

Gris Majeur³³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: J J Burke| T: Sheila Lewis| OR: 105| C| D

9/2

A fair winner at 22f over hurdles but he has been pulled up on his last two starts here in this sphere. Needs to take a big step forward.

Forecasts

Everyonesgame (8/13), The Gypsy Davey (5/2), Gris Majeur (9/2), Red Hugh (7/1)

EVERYONESGAME looks to have been found a very good opportunity to gain compensation for his late Kempton departure and get off the mark in this sphere. The Gypsy Davey should take a step forward from his Chepstow fourth after a lay-off and can follow home Emma Lavelle's 8-y-o ahead of fencing newcomer Red Hugh.
