Forecast: 5/2 Luccombe Down , 3/1 Omid , 9/2 Skylander , 6/1 Optimistic Bias , 7/1 Factor Fifty , 10/1 Mr Mulliner , 12/1 Volcanic
Last Updated: 26 Jan 2017 13:33:40
To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Luccombe Down is likely to be a very popular selection following a hat-trick of wins already this season, but a 10lb rise in the ratings for his latest win will make life tougher for the six-year-old. Similar comments apply to OMID, although the son of Dubawi was hugely impressive when winning at Cartmel last time out by 17 lengths and a 11lb rise may underestimate him. It also worth noting that his last success prior to that came over this C&D in August 2015. Others to note are Optimistic Bias, Skylander and Volcanic.
Top Tip:
Omid
(6)
Watch out for:
Luccombe Down
(2)
SKYLANDER's win at Worcester last time was more comfortable than the margin suggests and, given he's still leniently treated based on his chasing exploits, he's worth a chance to follow up at the expense of Luccombe Down, who bids for a four-timer, with the unreliable Omid not totally discounted.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
In a race that lacks strength in depth, it is hard to oppose FOR GOODNESS SAKE, who has been running consistently well of late over hurdles. A win a Market Rasen in May was followed by two places in similar contests the following month and she has since made the frame in a couple of contests on the Flat. The main danger looks to be Lucy Mc because of the weight she gets from the selection, but she will need to improve to be successful today. Katie's Hen looks to be the next best but she has 19lb to find with the selection based on official ratings.
Top Tip:
For Goodness Sake
(1)
Watch out for:
Lucy Mc
(7)
This looks a match between FOR GOODNESS SAKE and Lucy Mc, with the in-form Warren Greatrex's filly narrowly preferred.

You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
ANTI COOL has improved a ton for the application of a visor and won with plenty in hand last time at Southwell. Connections have wisely turned him out again quickly under a 7lb penalty, which may yet underestimate how much he had in hand on that occasion, and he could prove difficult to beat if in the same form here. Reverse The Charge is consistent and shouldn't be out of the frame, while Blake Dean has to be considered on his chasing debut.
Top Tip:
Anti Cool
(3)
Watch out for:
Reverse The Charge
(5)
ANTI COOL is firmly on the right path now and could make light work of a 7 lb penalty for his recent Southwell victory, when seeming to have bags in hand. He's an obvious selection ahead of Poetic Lord and Blake Dean, who's still unexposed for his current stable.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
GABRIAL THE GREAT's jumping is improving with each run and a return to hurdling can help David Pipe's charge to claim a second victory in his last four starts. Good ground should suit the son of Montjeu and the seven-year-old can make the long journey worthwhile. Mighty Missile has first-time blinkers applied, while Jokers And Rogues showed much improvement over the spring for Kenneth Slack and it would be no surprise to see him refreshed following a 152-day break.
Top Tip:
Gabrial The Great
(2)
Watch out for:
Jokers And Rogues
(6)
JOKERS AND ROGUES was another success story for the Ken Slack yard in the spring and can pick up where he left off on his return. Jacks Last Hope has thrived since fitted with a visor and is an obvious danger, while Gabrial The Great's recent chase form provides hope that he'll fare better than when last seen over timber.

2015: (6 ran) Welsh Bard , Age 6 , Wgt 11-6 , SP 5/2 - Wayne Hutchinson / D McCain Jnr
Forecast: 13/8 Degooch , 7/4 The Backup Plan , 11/4 Dursey Sound , 12/1 Rough Justice
Last Updated: 26 Jan 2017 13:33:40
To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Dursey Sound would be a danger to all from his current rating if he could rediscover his best form and it would not be the biggest surprise if he were to do so. That said, the safer pick looks to be THE BACKUP PLAN, who only found one too good in a similar event at Bangor last month and that form has been boosted with the third running well since then. A 1lb rise for that effort looks fair and both of his wins so far in his career have come at this venue. Degooch found the step up in trip too much for him last time but he had previously been successful at Uttoxeter over a similar trip to this. Rough Justice will need to improve on recent performances.
Top Tip:
The Backup Plan
(4)
Watch out for:
Dursey Sound
(1)
THE BACKUP PLAN ran his best race of the campaign when runner-up at Bangor recently, doing best of those ridden close to the pace, and Donald McCain's dual-course winner could well be ready to strike. Degooch has also been shaping well lately and rates the chief threat.

VIC'S LAST STAND has looked a different animal since switched to handicap company and it was hard not to be impressed by the manner of her 12-length victory over the extended 2m3f here last time. Officially 6lb well-in under a 7lb penalty, she will be well fancied to complete the double. Amongst the dangers are Irish raider Shamat, who wears cheekpieces for the first time, and Market Rasen runner-up Pixiepot. Steady Major and four-time course scorer Hi Dancer add further spice to the race.
Top Tip:
Vic's Last Stand
(3)
Watch out for:
Shamat
(2)
The drop in trip is a slight worry for VIC'S LAST STAND but she had plenty in hand here last week and could have too much for this opposition if ridden in similarly positive fashion. The reliable Pixiepot is likely to be competitive again, while Hi Dancer was in good heart when last seen at the start of the summer and won't be far away if turning up in similar form after a break.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Dan Skelton boasts an impressive 35% strike-rate with his Sedgefield runners over the last five seasons (45% with hurdlers alone) and it looks a tip in itself that he brings just one horse, SAND BLAST, up north from his Warwickshire base today. The five-year-old backed up his Worcester success with solid placed efforts both at Uttoxeter and Stratford and he is expected to prove too good for these rivals, despite a slightly lacklustre effort at Southwell yesterday. Doitforjoe landed a Southwell maiden yesterday and looks the biggest threat, ahead of Crakehall Lad and Our Reward.
Top Tip:
Sand Blast
