Hat-trick (2m-extended 2m3f) before the break included two C&D wins in July, latest when scoring convincingly off an 8lb lower mark and the runner-up has run well since; this mark demands more but he's thriving and a bold bid can be expected for the four-timer.

6 yo Mare

OR: 86

Form & Verdict
Maiden who is not living up to her pedigree but seemed to enjoy front-running role and ran best race yet when clear second of ten in Worcester handicap chase (2m, good) 12 days ago; must be considered after that effort.

10st 6lb

J: Sam Twiston-Davies

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Hasn't lived up to her excellent jumping pedigree and she's now 0-9 after finishing a well-held second at Newton Abbot; can jump to the right so this track should suit better, but she's not overly convincing.

J: James Turner

T: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies

Modest maiden hurdler; yet to offer much in two runs in this sphere, hooded when a well-held third of four in 2m4f handicap here 25 days ago; lots more is required from 2lb out of the handicap.

4 yo Filly

OR: 101

Form & Verdict
Made all in mares' maiden hurdle here (2m1f, good) last summer and came second on her next three appearances; absent since October but her 12lb weight-for-age allowance will be handy on this chasing debut.

Keen-going front-runner who has made the frame on all six hurdling starts, most notably when winning by 8l at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in August; has her limitations but can cope if the ground is good to soft here (untested on anything slower) and ought to make another bold bid.
