Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr Robbie David⁽⁷⁾| T: Daisy Hitchins| OR: 99| D

7/2

Deservedly got his head back in front when capitalising on a lower hurdles mark at Stratford (18.7f, heavy) in October. Made the frame on 2 of his 3 starts since, albeit seeming to find the test inadequate when third of 5 in handicap chase at Leicester (15.9f) 3 days ago.

16/1

10-y-o who evidently isn't the force of old but tumbled in the weights and best effort for present yard when second of 8 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (19.2f) 26 days ago, collared final 100 yds but clear of rest. Respected with a repeat.

Abaya Du Mathan^p,t¹⁰

Age: 12| Weight: 11-8| J: Jack Hogan⁽³⁾| T: G Hanmer| OR: 93| CD

12/1

Veteran who capitalised on some mercy from the assessor when winning 7-runner C&D handicap at the start of the month. Struggled to make an impact in a stronger race when fifth of 8 in handicap chase at Hereford (2m) 10 days ago but this rates more suitable.

You Say Nothing¹²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: Jack Tudor| T: Christian Williams| OR: 88| D

11/1

Exploits decidedly mixed since last win and he again ran poorly when pulled up in handicap chase at Exeter (19.2f) 12 days ago. Handicapper has relinquished his grip further but he needs to display more positive signs before becoming of interest.

Stick With Me Sam^t1³³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: C O'Farrell| T: T R Gretton| OR: 84

14/1

Related to plenty of winners and pair of handicap hurdle exploits not devoid of encouragement. However, discouraging start in this sphere when sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Lingfield (16f, good to soft) on debut over fences 33 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

Form: 686-746

Johnny Mac^p1,t²⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-12| J: Stan Sheppard| T: M Sheppard| OR: 83| D

13/2

Completed a hat-trick for his current yard at Leicester in January but yet to scale same heights so far this term, third of 5 in handicap chase at Leicester (15.9f, soft) 26 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

Pescatorius^p,t³^{(ex 7)}

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Bradley Harris⁽³⁾| T: H Dickin| OR: 75| D

11/4

Getaway gelding who capitalised on falling mark to shed maiden tag in 6-runner handicap chase at Catterick (15.7f, good) 3 days ago, jumping on 3 out and eased late on. Needs considering under a penalty.

Form: P7-0771

14/1

Has improved for the switch to chasing, striking at Ffos Las and Plumpton last autumn. Went close again in 4-runner handicap chase at Doncaster (19f) in March but below form when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Fontwell later that month but not ruled out on return.

J'habite En France^b,t³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Harry Bannister| T: B I Case| OR: 79

5/1

Regressive over hurdles and offered little both starts over fences upon returning this winter. Needs to step up plenty.

Form: U40-PP6

Lonimoss Bareliere^b,t⁵⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Harry Reed| T: B R Summers| OR: 72

50/1

Long-standing maiden who excelled himself from out of the weights when second at Stratford in July. However, exploits have been predictably mixed both starts since and he's likely to find a few too good again.

Forecasts

Pescatorius (11/4), Begin The Luck (7/2), J'habite En France (5/1), Johnny Mac (13/2), Robins Field (10/1), You Say Nothing (11/1), Abaya Du Mathan (12/1), Ideallko (14/1), Stick With Me Sam (14/1), Ballywood (16/1), Lonimoss Bareliere (50/1)

PESCATORIUS was well served by a switch to positive tactics/return to 2m when shedding the maiden tag over fences at Catterick 3 days ago and he could be the way to go in his follow-up bid under a penalty. Ballywood, following an encouraging second at Market Rasen, and Abaya du Mathan are others to consider.
