Stan Sheppard Tom Lacey
55732- Draw 0 OR 117 RPR 122 TS 115 +0.0% EV +13.0% Edge Data 55%

Has four wins over hurdles but is still looking for first chase success; has gone close on last two starts when placed; this drop back in trip may not suit as he looks a stayer in the making but he's not out of this.

/3533- Draw 0 OR 117 RPR 0 TS 0 +-34.0% EV +-5.5% Edge Data 64%

Has shown solid form in at least three of his four races over fences without winning; the handicapper has given him a chance on this return from a three-month break; both first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces go on and any improvement should see him go close.

Bumper winner and has three wins over hurdles; got off the mark on the return to fences when a convincing winner at Southwell (2m4f, good) last month; up 7lb but looks sure to give another bold account.

Has three wins over fences but was beaten 28l when fourth of five finishers at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) four weeks ago on his return from a winter break; still 6lb higher than for his last success and others look better handicapped.

Won four times for the Skeltons but, following a good second on his stable debut here (2m4f, heavy) in December, he has been pulled up on three of his last four starts; hard to fancy.

Ex-French where all his winning was on heavy ground; difficult to assess on his British debut and the betting is probably the best guide to his chance.

Yet to get off the mark over fences in five starts; cheekpieces worn last time are retained; steps back in trip but is getting expensive to follow.

Got off the mark over hurdles in a maiden at Exeter (2m2f, good to firm) in October and ran well when third at Ascot the following month; steps up in trip on his chasing debut and should run well.

Won twice over fences last summer, including over C&D; won a couple of points last month and looks reasonably treated on this return to fences; not out of this.
