RACE DESCRIPTION Selling races exist as an outlet for connections to sell their horses. Any horse that wins a ‘seller’ such as thisrace, is automatically put up for public auction in the Winners’ Enclosure at the end of the race and goes to the highest bidder. The auction is often well worth seeing, so make sure to head that way after the race.

TIMEFORM VIEW Missed all of 2019 and 2020 but proved he still has something to offer with back-to-back selling/claiming victories at Leicester this season. Likely remains in form after runner-up effort at Catterick last time. Step back up in trip will suit. Star RatingHHHHH BHA 114 2 CLEARANCE (GB) (155) (6000) 12/36-F3

TIMEFORM VIEW Lightly raced in this sphere since landing a Stratford seller in 2019. Ended autumn Flat campaign on a low note for this yard but he should be a factor at this level. Star RatingHHHII BHA 112 3 DIS DONC (FR) (22) (6000) 334454

TIMEFORM VIEW Successful over hurdles in Ireland, but that was 4 years ago and well below his best over fences in 2022. Didn’t show much back over timber in a claimer 3 weeks ago, either. Star RatingHHHII BHA 101 4 INSTANT REPLAY (IRE) (5) (6000) U10353

TIMEFORMVIEWBagged his fourth win at Sedgefield in September. Not at that level since and better known as a chaser, but this is a drop in class. Likely type. Star RatingHHHHI BHA 101 (-1) 5 VANDERBILT (IRE) (13) (6000) 424043
