Leg 1 Selections: Harjo

HARJO has a really smart pedigree and is related to former smart chaser Master Of The Hall. He made a really promising start to his career under rules when making the unbeaten Maximilian pull out all the stops on hurdles debut at Carlisle. The winner has won again since, so the form has been strongly advertised and, with plenty more to come, he can go one better.

Leg 2 Selections: Kateira

KATEIRA made an impressive start to her career on debut at Huntingdon and then ran a good race when fifth of 20 in the Aintree Bumper next time. Dan Skelton trained the winner of this race last year, so this has clearly been a plan and she’s strongly fancied to make a winning start over hurdles at the expense of Hidden Beauty.

Leg 3 Selections: Bear Ghylls

BEAR GHYLLS ran a huge race when third on his return/chase debut in the Listed Colin Parker Chase at Carlisle, only giving way after the final fence. That was his first start in over twenty months so it was a good effort in defeat, especially given the winner Beauport and second Millers Bank are high-class horses.

Leg 4 Selections: Croagh Patrick

CROAGH PATRICK is consistent and ran another solid race when second at Carlisle last time. He remains on the same mark for this race and should make another bold bid here. It’ll come as a surprise if he couldn’t get himself into the frame again with a few of these having something to prove.

Leg 5 Selections: The Changing Man

THE CHANGING MAN beat a couple of good horses at Chepstow last time as the second and third are rated at least 117+. He has gone up seven pounds but he’s still extremely well-handicapped based on that latest piece of form and he’s strongly fancied to land the hat-trick.

Leg 6 Selections: Punctuation

PUNCTUATION took his form to another level when joining this yard last season, winning both starts, including at Newbury on his final outing of the last campaign. He will be fancied to land the hat-trick by many here with more to come this term.
