Just Chasing MayBen Jones - B Pauling2328-1
4/1
13/10
6yo who made it 2-12 over hurdles when winning in good style here (2m4f, good) in June, also effective on soft/good to soft, not bred for fences but he's in good hands and is respected on his debut in this sphere.
Let's Sail AwayStan Sheppard - T Lacey5991-2
4/1
13/10
Lightly raced point winner (2m4f, good to soft) who won easily over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) in March and was a promising second on last month's chase debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good), where he was clear with the 10-11 favourite, open to further improvement, firmly in calculations.
King Of The StoryBenjamin Poste - P Gundry78-411
5/1
6/4
9yo who returned to form to post two convincing wins over C&D (good) last month, also effective on good to soft ground, he's now on a career-high mark following an 8lb rise for last time, and this is a hotter race, but he had bundles to spare and could still be ahead of the handicapper.
JeudideeC Gethings - K Bailey & M Nicholls363-12
6/1
17/10
Course novice hurdle winner (good to soft) who won over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in May, runner-up over this C&D (good) since and the first and third have both won subsequently, strong claims.
En AvantS Bowen - O Murphy1180/3
8/1
11/5
Won over hurdles in 2023 on first two runs for this yard (2m/2m5f, soft/good to soft) and he returned from a long absence with a close third of five over fences at Uttoxeter (2m, good, 16-1) last month, he could build on that very encouraging run now back up in trip and he's on the shortlist.
Sleeping SatelliteJ J Burke - F O'Brien/277-6
9/1
12/5
Tailed off over fences last year on final two runs for Donald McCain and he wasn't back to his best over hurdles on last month's stable debut, however, he may have needed that run and this point, bumper and novice hurdle winner, who went close in a chase last May, is not written off.
Midnight JewelLily Pinchin - C E Longsdon7-5217
10/1
13/5
Short-headed at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in June then went one better at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm), and he was in the mix at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last time until making a bad mistake at the second-last fence, has won on good to soft and over hurdles here, could have a part to play.
IsocrateR P McLernon - J & A O'NeillP-3142
10/1
13/5
Won at Warwick (2m4f, good) in June and bounced back from lesser run when 4l second to Zacony Rebel over this C&D (good) in first-time cheekpieces (retained), effective on soft ground earlier in career, could be involved.
GlajouC O'Farrell - N P Mulholland2314/4
10/1
13/5
Won over C&D (good to soft) in September and returned from a long absence with very creditable fourth of nine at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good, 22-1) last month, could improve for that comeback run and is one to consider.
Zacony RebelJames Bowen - S-J Davies-55919
16/1
15/4
10yo who won by 4l in first-time blinkers (retained since) over C&D (good) last month, of interest on that form but that's been his sole high point this year and he was well beaten back here (2m, good) 11 days ago.
Byzantine EmpireJack Tudor - J L Flint3P-655
33/1
10/1
Two-time chase winner who won off this mark over hurdles here last July, however, he's been well beaten over fences and on the Flat on his four outings this year and needs a major turnaround.
CollinghamTabitha Worsley (3) - J Coulson3-1456
40/1
12/1
Eight-time hurdle winner, the last two in claimers in the spring, his three chase starts haven't been devoid of promise but he was only sixth of nine at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) last time and needs something extra.
Raindance QueenJames Best - W De Best-Turner7P-P34
40/1
12/1
One of her better runs when 16l fourth of 13 to King Of The Story over C&D last month but this maiden is even further out of the handicap this afternoon and is hard to fancy.
