Won off a higher chase mark for Dan Skelton last summer but, following a ten-month break, was soundly beaten over hurdles for new stable in May; others in the line-up have much less to prove.

Form & Verdict
Went close over 2m5f at Uttoxeter last month and bettered that performance when very creditable fourth in valuable 2m race there a fortnight ago; competes off same mark here and can make a bold bid from the front.

Form & Verdict
Quickened clear on run-in for ready hurdle success here (2m1f, good) last week and has now won six times (twice over fences) since joining Robbie Llewellyn in March last year; obvious contender on return to chasing.

J: Charlie Price

T: Robbie Llewellyn

Capitalised on a reduced mark over hurdles here (2m1f, good) ten days ago when back from a break; he wasn't running well over fences towards the end of last year but he's a three-time chase winner who is able to run off the same mark as for that recent hurdle win, so is entitled to respect.

J: Mr James King

T: Robbie Llewellyn

Nine-time winner over jumps, including over C&D last July; out of form over hurdles and fences afterwards but the booking of James King catches the eye and, having dropped to a career-low mark, this 11yo could be a player back from a break.

J: Charlie Price

T: Robbie Llewellyn

Nine jumps wins (three over C&D); not firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in October but last month's modest fourth behind The Grey Man at Leicester (1m7f, heavy) was a step back in the right direction and he's too well handicapped to rule out.

Form & Verdict
Signed off for Greenall/Guerriero stable with respectable fourth in selling handicap hurdle in May but was pulled up over C&D when back over fences for last month's stable debut and has become a hard horse to predict.

T: Alexandra Dunn

Hurdle/chase winner in Ireland in spring 2022; took big step back in right direction when fourth in selling handicap hurdle for the Greenall and Guerriero yard last month but has a lot more on his plate on today's stable debut; seems versatile regarding ground.

Verdict

There could still be more to come from In This World, who opened his chasing account at Worcester last month, but OPENING BID was a commendable fourth off today’s mark in a competitive race at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago and is selected in the hope he can dominate from the front here. Feel The Pinch reverts to chasing after a ready course hurdle win last week and is also a key player.[Chris Wilson]
