11st 11lb |
Makes his stable debut on a reduced mark but his form for Charlie Longsdon went the wrong way this year and he has plenty to prove. |

11st 10lb |
Now 10lb lower than when winning over hurdles last summer but was last of four on chasing debut in July, and his finishing effort over hurdles last month was disappointing; swaps blinkers for refitted visor here; needs to up his game. |

12th Nov 2024 Good 2m 7f 129y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Thorough stayer with nine wins on his CV; not an easy one to predict nowadays and failed to build upon his encouraging seasonal debut when never dangerous at Chepstow last month but has his headgear switched today and is too well handicapped to rule out. |

11st 10lb |
Veteran with nine wins to his name and, with cheekpieces back on, he ran well for a long way at Warwick 17 days ago (good to soft); that was encouraging after a lengthy break but he's no certainty to be as good again. |

Absent since below-par third at Southwell in November; awarded the race at Newton Abbot (3m2f; now 4lb higher) two starts earlier; heed the market signals on return to action. |

Betting Forcast
11/8 Moon King, 6/1 Innisfree Lad, 6/4 Jens Boy, 33/1 Uncle Henry, 6/1 Dalileo
Verdict
JEN’S BOY comes here at the top of his game so is taken to make light of a 4lb rise for his Newton Abbot victory and follow up at the chief expense of Worcester winner Moon King. C&D scorer Innisfree Lad has gone well when fresh so can’t be ruled out on his return.[Peter Entwistle]
