The Hollinwell is a useful staying chaser at best and landed Southwell jumpers' bumper penultimate start. Let down by jumping at Cheltenham latest and has temperament issues, but is on a dangerous mark.
Rey Nacarado has continued his progression over fences this term, runner-up to Giles Cross at Fontwell (3½m) before winning at Newbury (3¼m) in December. Pulled up at Haydock latest, but claims if bouncing back
Bellflower Boy won 4 times in 2010/11 and further improvement with hurdling wins at Warwick in December/January (25f). Not discredited at Cheltenham latest, and potentially well treated returning to fences.
Chamirey Dual chase winner in early-2011, but done little this season aside from a very muddling second in a cross-country event at Cheltenham in December, folding tamely and well beaten in recent starts.
Night In Milan is a quirky sort who has made the frame on all 4 chase outings, best effort coming at Newcastle (3m) penultimate start. Not as good last time, but needs considering despite having stamina to prove.
Heez A Steel is not the most fluent of jumpers but managed fifth in 2011 Scottish National. Potentially thrown in now, and signs of a revival at Ayr penultimate start (unseated latest).
Belmore Baron was a lightly-raced novice hurdler who immediately showed improved form on chase debut when winning 27f handicap here recently. Not most straightforward, but clearly open to improvement over fences.
Esme Rides A Gaine is a moody sort who won handicap here (27f) this time last year. Running consistently this season, placed on last 4 starts, but hard to fancy from 19 lb out of the weights.
Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Bellflower Boy
2. Rey Nacarado
3. Belmore Baron
Timeform View: Bellflower Boy has improved markedly over hurdles recently, and it looks worth chancing that he can do the same from a tempting mark back over fences. Ray Nacardo and Belmore Baron are also respected.
