Found improvement on first start back with this stable when readily making all at Warwick in December. Poor efforts at Lingfield and Kempton since, though, and probably best watched for now.

50/1
Now 12 lb lower than for his latest win in a handicap chase at Hereford in November 2020, but pulled up on 3 of his last 4 starts and now has plenty to prove. Cheekpieces enlisted.

Runner-up first 2 starts switched to fences this season, including over 22.5f here in December. Disappointing at Taunton later that month, but given a break since and he has to enter calculations.

Largely below par last season and failed to build on encouraging C&D reappearance effort for new yard when fourth at Warwick (25.4f). Still, this drop back in trip may help and he's now 4 lb lower.

Has improved for the switch to fences the last twice, latterly scoring in decisive fashion at Warwick (2½m). More needed up 8 lb in this tougher race, but he's unexposed in this sphere

7/1
Positive chase debut when second of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (2½m) in November. However, hasn't found much at the business end on his next 2 starts and now tried in blinkers.

Came good with pair of 3m chase wins in the mud at Bangor last May. Ultimately well held when runner-up Chepstow (26.2f) 3 weeks ago, but 2 lb lower here and he's certainly not without hope.

Forecasts

Mille Sussurri (5/2), Coupdebol (3/1), Neil The Legend (9/2), The Dubai Way (6/1), Twotwothree (13/2), Loch Garman Aris (13/2), Honorary Colonel (7/1), Town Parks (50/1)

Verdict

There's a chance that LOCH GARMAN ARIS was still in need of the run when a distant second at Chepstow last time, which was his first completion of the current campaign, and he could be the answer to an open and tricky-looking contest. With Twotwothree due to run at Doncaster on Friday, Mille Sussurri and The Dubai Way are nominated as the main dangers, though Coupdebol also warrants respect.
