Champagnesuperover^t⁵⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Beau Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: O Murphy| OR: 123

10/11

Dual chase winner at around 3m in spring 2022. Missed 18 months but best effort since when winning veterans event at Hereford (25.2f, soft) a couple of months ago. Has to give an out-of-sorts rival 20 lb but strongly fancied to do so.

Form: 40U3U1

Stormin Crossgales²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: R T Dunne| T: C & A Pogson| OR: 123

10/11

Landed back-to-back small-field handicap chases at Doncaster/Southwell at up to 20f around the turn of the year but has completely lost his way since. Gets plenty of weight from Champagnesuperover but hard to see him getting the better of that rival.

Form: 411PP3

Forecasts

Stormin Crossgales (10/11), Champagnesuperover (10/11)

CHAMPAGNESUPEROVER was value extra when landing a veterans event at Hereford when last seen a couple of months ago and, although he's forced to give his sole rival stacks of weight, Olly Murphy's charge is fancied to register a fourth victory over the larger obstacles.
