RACE SUMMARY

UCANAVER holds the edge on form and has less on her plate than when fifth in a Listed event at Taunton so Anthony Honeyball’s mare gets the nod. Rock of Fame has also shown a fair level of form and rates a big threat though, while both Universal Brook and Jen’s Georgie showed enough last time after returning from absences to suggest they can’t be ruled out either.

RACE SUMMARY

Plenty are in with a shout. POTTLERATH is a reliable sort who comes here at the top of his game so he gets the nod in his bid for a breakthrough victory. Several have their first go in a handicap and David Pipe’s Shot Boii is fancied to emerge best now his stamina is drawn out. In-form duo Auenwirbel and Dr Des also need considering.

RACE SUMMARY

Back at the scene of his cosy reappearance success in October, DESQUE DE L’ISLE could be the answer. He has contested higher-grade handicaps than this on his 3 subsequent starts and the return to a left-handed track will be very much in his favour. File Illico demonstrated a willing attitude at Wetherby and is next on the list ahead of Rose Sea Has. 1-2-3: 1.DESQUE DE L’ISLE (FR) 2.FILE ILLICO (FR) 3.ROSE SEA HAS (FR) KEY colours

RACE SUMMARY

There should be better to come from NATTY NIGHT and Ben Lilly, both of whom were pretty useful on the level and make their handicaps debuts in this sphere off potentially handy marks.

Marginal preference is for Natty Night, who appeared to have a bit left up his sleeve when landing a Taunton maiden last month. Fontana Ellissi and Jaunty Viking are others with claims in a competitive handicap.

FIFTH RACE 3.20 ABOUT THREE MILES (2M 7F 177YDS) FOR FIVE YRS OLD AND UPWARDS

THE CAZOO HANDICAP STEEPLE CHASE (CLASS 5) Total race value £12400 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £4590, 2nd £2296, 3rd £1147, 4th £574, 5th £280, 6th £280, 7th £280, 8th £280.

(Penalty Value £5990.60) Weights raised 3lb and paragraph 34 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): E Williams (43 wins from 309 runners, 14%) runs BROOKSWAY FAIR TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): V Williams (7 wins from 21 runners, 33%) runs JURYS OUT WEIGHTWATCHER: NO QUARTER ASKED won off a handicap mark of 93, his rating is now down 7lb to 86.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: HATCHET JACK trained by P Henderson, Whitsbury, 216 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

Course scorer BROOKSWAY FAIR has the potential for better back over fences so he’s the suggestion in this big-field handicap. Powerful Position will be a threat if cutting out the jumping errors which have held him back since his C&D success in November. Kestrel Valley and Son of Oz are also on the shortlist.

RACE SUMMARY

PAGEANT MATERIAL was really strong at the finish when winning a 2m novice at the track a month ago and with the prospect of lots more to come over this sort of trip, her opening mark may underestimate her. Checkitsme escapes a penalty for last week’s win and has to be feared, while it will be interesting to see whether Rock On Rita is backed again.
