DAVID'S WELL (5) managed to take his record to three wins from as a many starts in the chasing sphere gaining a success at Haydock last time out. Booking of Harry Cobden for this progressive Chris Gordon trained six-year-old catches the eye and he can complete a four-timer. Top weight JPR ONE (1) shaped well when eased in grade at Ascot last time out and could provide a major bid back up 1kg with the first-time cheekpieces worn last start retained. COUNTRY MILE (4) was a course hurdling winner and may get involved now switching to handicaps following two fair efforts tackling fences. EXCELERO (6) completes the shortlist.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up finished third in a small field at Exeter in the G2 Haldon Gold Cup on November 7 over 3500m, 22 len behind Thistle Ask carrying 74kg at $4.30. Second-up sat on the pace then finished third of 10 starters at Ascot on November 22 over 3400m, 2.25 len behind Calico with 73.5kg at $4.30. Definite winning chance. Ideally placed return to winning form.

Second-up today. Fresh up after eight months came from midfield; finished fourth of 8 runners at this track on November 14 over 4000m, slow track; 22 len behind Eldorado Allen with 76kg at $4.50. Previously second-up pulled up at Kelso on December 8 2024 over 3400m. Fitter for that outing and is expected to do much better.

Racing second-up today. First-up after nine months came from midfield and won by a neck this track on November 16 over 3200m slow track defeating Torneo with 68.5kg at $8 in a steeplechase. Previously second-up finished fourth of 8 starters at Ascot on November 23 2024 over 3400m, 20 len behind Martator carrying 72.5kg at $10. Can feature again after that bright return.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming finished sixth of 9 runners at this track on October 24 over 3200m, 19 len behind Calico carrying 64.5kg at $41. Second-up settled back and ran on when finished eighth of 11 starters at this track on November 16 over 3200m, on slow going 27 len behind Triple Trade carrying 71kg at $17. This looks too tough.

Expected Settling Position: Backmarker
