Horse Racing Preview: Key Runners to Watch
Here’s a look at some of the key runners in this race, with recent form and insights:
Runner 1: Irish point runner-up who scored over hurdles at Ffos Las in January. Shaped well on his chasing debut after 9 months off when a fading fourth of 8 in a handicap at Lingfield (20f, good) 22 days ago. Remains with potential.
Runner 2: Got off the mark over hurdles in a novice at Fontwell (21.8f) 19 months ago.Off since, so has his fitness to prove now going chasing.
Runner 3: Won 3 claiming chases in France and comes here on a hat-trick after back-to-back chasing successes at Ffos Las last month. Up 6 lb but scored comfortably over 19f on the latter occasion so not taken lightly.
Runner 4: Resumed winning ways at Sedgefield in December but only fourth of 5 in a handicap chase there (21f, good to soft) when last seen out 8 months ago. Has won off a break so not discounted on his return.
