9/2

A fair winner over 14f on the level for David Pipe back in 2021. Showed similar form over hurdles and fences since and very much one to consider now starting out for new yard after 8 months off.

Forecasts

Marioento (6/5), Nibras Gold (9/2), Sisterandbrother (6/1), Freddy Robinson (15/2), Whatacracker (10/1), Prince Achille (11/1), Encircle (12/1), Dr Rio (16/1)

MARIOENTO shaped as if this step up in trip would suit when a good recent fifth at Doncaster so edges the vote from James Owen's new recruit Nibras Gold who is handily weighted on his return from an absence. In-form pair Freddy Robinson and Prince Achille both need factoring in too.
