Atomic Rumble^t⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 115

16/1

Won twice last summer but handicapper seemingly had measure since. Sixth at Ffos Las latest a fair run over 2m4f but still a few doubts even with handicapper easing the burden.

Form: 0-11776

Lough Ryn^t1⁷³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: T Scudamore| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 114

25/1

Yet to make the frame in six career starts and beaten a long way latest at Ascot. Cheekpieces now tried but need to make dramatic difference.

Form: 4/845-69

Rosemary Russet^t²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: N D Fehily| T: H Fry| OR: 114| BF

11/2

Yet to win over hurdles but second four times including latest 12L defeat in a 3m Taunton handicap. Gets 1lb back for that so once more has to enter calculations and placed effort again more than likely.

Form: 276242

Firebird Flyer^v1⁸⁸

Age: 12| Weight: 11-10| J: Isabel Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 113

33/1

Last win came in the 2016 Midlands National but he's failed to complete almost fifty per cent of his subsequent starts. Well handicapped but latest start suggests his enthusiasm might be waning.

Form: F889-2P

Lady Markby²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: D A Jacob| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 113

25/1

Market Rasen winner in February 2017 over 2m2½f on soft going off mark of 109. Was absent more than a year afterwards but shaped well (second) at Uttoxeter in May. Questionable efforts since though and safer to bypass.

Form: 392R96

Some Can Dance¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Harrison Beswick⁽⁷⁾| T: S Drinkwater| OR: 112

6/1

Improved effort when stepped up to 3m1f latest at Carlisle as he gained a first career success. 8lb rise makes life tougher here but still quite unexposed as a stayer so not ruled out.

Form: 582361

J'Ai Froid³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Max Kendrick⁽⁵⁾| T: B I Case| OR: 108| BF

10/1

Unplaced in six starts to date and although quite well fancied he could only finish midfield latest in first handicap at Newcastle. More needed here.

Form: 52-9547

March Is On⁸²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Jonjo O'Neill Jr.⁽⁵⁾| T: Jonjo & A O'Neill| OR: 108

3/1

After two thirds he took his form to new levels latest when a narrow second of 13 at Warwick. Upped 5lb for that effort so life only gets tougher but that first race since July so open to more improvement and highly respected.

Form: 15-8332

Vango De Vaige⁸⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: T J O'Brien| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 107| CD

8/1

C&D breakthrough two starts back before struggling here next on heavy ground. Perhaps that can therefore be forgiven now and gets 2lb back which is beneficial. Certainly one of the more likely sorts here.

Form: P6P-315

Summit Like Herbie⁵⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Jamie Bargary| T: N A Twiston-Davies| OR: 106| C

16/1

Maybe there was a hint of what was to come when he won on his bumper debut despite not looking straightforward. Majority of his hurdles runs have been blighted by quirky behaviour; ran well enough last time but hard to trust overall.

Form: 156-602

Ataguiseamix⁸²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Lucy Gardner⁽³⁾| T: Mrs S Gardner| OR: 105

20/1

Hinted at ability without seriously threatening the last twice at Taunton but now upped quite significantly in trip which might just help. Plenty to prove but one of the more interesting runners.

Form: 2/PP-358

Mogestic⁴⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-13| J: Daniel Sansom⁽⁵⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 102| C

80/1

Five-time winner scored twice last summer but struggled since. Tailed off at Plumpton latest and hard to fancy now.

Form: 1155P7

Bact To Black^p⁴⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Rex Dingle⁽⁵⁾| T: R Walford| OR: 101| D

6/1

Upped 4lb here for narrow Lingfield win over this distance; a career first. Up in grade now so improvement required but could easily be that he is now progressing.

Form: 526-631

Tudors Treasure³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: C Gethings| T: R Stephens| OR: 95

20/1

Relatively well handicapped on very best form . Solid claims on the merits of the gelding's latest start when finishing fourth in similar company at Kempton. Poor recent completion rate can boost his odds for a place.

Form: 55-FFP4

Forecasts

March Is On (3/1), Rosemary Russet (11/2), Some Can Dance (6/1), Bact To Black (6/1), Farm The Rock (8/1), Vango De Vaige (8/1), J'Ai Froid (10/1), Atomic Rumble (16/1), Summit Like Herbie (16/1), Tudors Treasure (20/1), Ataguiseamix (20/1), Flo'sboy Sam (20/1), Lough Ryn (25/1), Lady Markby (25/1), Firebird Flyer (33/1), Mogestic (80/1)

Fiendishly difficult this one but preference is for recent C&D winner VANGO DE VAIGE whose latest effort on bottomless ground can be forgiven. March Is On ran his best race to date latest and rates a danger as does Farm The Rock whose bid for a hat-trick came up short latest.
