WEIGHTWATCHER: SECRET TRIX won off a handicap mark of 129, his rating is now down 9lb to 120. LONGEST TRAVELLER: FADED FANTASY & TOP COEUR trained by Christian Williams, Bridgend, 154 miles.

With his sights lowered, SECRET TRIX is fancied to record a fourth course victory. It’s hard to knock Tiger Orchid’s consistency and he’s likely to be in the mix again, while Mammies Boy shaped as though back in form last time, without looking entirely straightforward.

REGAL RENAISSANCE produced an errant round of jumping when resuming winning ways at Ludlow on her latest outing, yet she knuckled down well to outbattle the runner up on that occasion. Now starting out for a new yard boasting a healthy strike rate over jumps last season with Sean Bowen booked, she appeals as a big player again. I Am The Moon takes narrow preference over That’s Nice to emerge next best.

BEORMA appeals as the type to run up a sequence judged on her efforts in a tongue tie of late so she’s hard to get away from. Bowling Shane showed improved form switched to a handicap at Ffos Las last month and can improve further now stepping up in trip, with recent winner Brionywells another possible threat if coping with the drop back in distance.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: CLEVER RELATION trained by Christian Williams, Bridgend, 154 miles.

A trappy-looking handicap to conclude the card. JUSTUS produced a much stouter finishing effort than usual when second at Hexham on his latest start and, with that form having substance, he could prove to be answer from the same mark. Ask A Sainte is weighted to reverse C&D form with Genbu, and that pair head up the opposition.
