wasn't himself at Exeter last month for whatever reason but hasn't done much wrong otherwise and put up a useful effort to land this good prize; in touch, shaken up 3 out, chased leaders straight, found plenty to lead close home, affirming that he should be suited by 23f+; will remain of plenty of interest and has a good future, not least as he'll surely make an even better chaser next season.

beat subsequent EBF Final winner Brave Vic at Plumpton when last seen and confirmed all that promise making handicap debut back from 9 weeks off, putting up a useful effort in going down narrowly; prominent, travelled well, led before 2 out, ridden when challenged last, kept on well, caught close home; he's bound to go well again, either kept to this sphere or returned to chasing, likely to be even better back over fences if his physique is any guide.

has hardly put a foot wrong this season and produced best effort to date back in a handicap; prominent, travelled fluently, every chance when pushed along 2 out, kept on; sure to go well again and, like the pair that beat him, has the make-up of at least as good a chaser when the time comes.

had no problem with the longer trip and ran well despite leaving the impression the switch from uncompetitive mares novices to a big-field handicap came as a bit of a shock to the system, all to her credit that she managed to get involved in view of that; held up, jumped none too fluently, travelled smoothly, headway 3 out, chased leaders 2 out, kept on; likely to benefit from this experience and open to further improvement, well up to winning a handicap from this mark.

A competitive handicap staged for horses that didn't make the cut at Cheltenham and the form looks pretty strong among the 4 novices that pulled clear, each of that quartet having plenty to recommend them both short and long term; the pace was fair but no better and quite a few were never involved, the fourth about the only one to threaten from behind.
