Prolific winner since joining this yard, winning for seventh time in 3m2f handicap at Sedgefield 25 days ago. Up 5 lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood.

A fairly useful 26f chase winner at his best but off 9 months before plled up in handicap chase (12/1) at Newcastle (23.4f, good) 52 days ago. Has something to prove now.

5/1
A three-time winner last season, scoring at Doncaster in November. 9/2, only fifth of 6 in handicap chase at Warwick (24f, good) 40 days ago. Needs a subsequent wind op to spark improvement.

10/1
It's now 15 runs since his last win in 2022 but he recorded a creditable third of 11 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (24f, good to soft) 38 days ago. Back up in trip and needs considering.

13/8
Much improved on the back of breathng surgery when getting off the mark over fences in 7-runner handicap at Southwell (24.3f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Scored with plenty in hand there so a player despite taking a 6 lb weights rise with this longer distance also a positive.

Forecasts

Fever Dream (13/8), Planned Paradise (9/2), Stans The Man (5/1), My Gift To You (13/2), Chemical Warfare (9/1), Fern Hill (10/1), Ali Star Bert (18/1), Milan Bridge (28/1)

16:50 Fakenham - 6 May 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

FEVER DREAM opened his chasing account in some style at Southwell last month and can defy a 6 lb weight rise with this longer trip also a likely plus for Christian Williams' 7-y-o. Stablemate Planned Paradise is next on the list off a handy-looking mark, with Chemica Warfar and My Gift To You also worthy of consideration.
