Harry Cobden J Paul Nicholls, Ditcheat T B Mr J. Contou Carrere & Mr Y. Broca Morson Group S TIMEFORM VIEW Smart chaser. 7/2, reported breathing problem when pulled up in Manifesto Novices’ Chase at Aintree (19.9f, good to soft) won by Millers Bank. Is the class act in this field and goes well fresh, so should be tough to beat. TFRHHHHH BHA153

David Noonan J Mrs Jane Williams, South Molton T B Mr Bruno Vagne Culverhill Farm Racing S TIMEFORM VIEW Fairly useful hurdler who showed improved form to make a winning chase debut in Exeter novice in December.

Probable S.P.’s: 8-11 Pic D’orhy (FR), 11-4 Kissesforkatie (IRE), 9-1 Legends Ryde (GB), 11-1 Gladiateur Allen (FR)

PLAY SMARTER PIC D’ORHY is best in small fields and his mettle probably won’t be tested much in this, so he’s fancied to make all. Kissesforkatie is an interesting newcomer to chasing and Legends Ryde can’t be completely ruled out for all he has plenty to find with the selection.
