Class & Speed Card

CLASSIC MAESTRO successfully recorded a double over the smaller obstacles when scoring by over three and a half lengths over 2m1f at Newcastle last time, and he is now making his chase debut. If Jennie Canidish's gelding can produce that form over fences, he could prove very hard to beat. Brulure Noire can be forgiven his latest effort at Leicester when sent off at odds-on, as he may not have relished conditions, and could bounce back. Of the remainder, Doyouknowwhatimean appeals most.

CLASSIC MAESTRO is improving all the time, overcoming errors when scoring with something in hand at Newcastle last week, and the hat-trick beckons off the same mark if taking to fences at the first attempt. Doyouknowwhatimean is feared most ahead of Unit Sixtyfour.

Highly progressive hurdler CLASSIC MAESTRO could be even better now over fences, having finished third in a point last January.

Point-to-point winner HIDDEN HISTORY ran a race full of promise when hitting the frame at Newbury on his Rules debut and he would have learned a great deal from that experience. He can find enough improvement to shed his maiden tag over hurdles, while Home Free placed in two bumpers before being beaten into third on his hurdles debut at Huntingdon last month. He could progress to get closer, while any market confidence behind the Ben Pauling-trained Scotch On Da Rocks would be interesting.

There was plenty to like about HIDDEN HISTORY's opening effort over hurdles at Newbury last month and he can build on that promise with victory. Home Free looks the obvious danger unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding returning Ben Pauling point winner Scotch On Da Rocks.

Scotch On Da Rocks is the dark one but the obvious candidates are HOME FREE and Hidden History.

Even though ANNIE MAGIC was well beaten into third in this grade at Warwick last month, that still looks like the best piece of recent form on offer and she was dropped 1lb. Jeremy Scott's mare also has the combination of a tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time and that could eke out more. So Said I's mark continues to drop and, if the first-time blinkers can have the desired effect, she could have a say. Swincombe Fleat takes a drop in grade and can beat Lazy Sunday home for third.

All of these have question marks hanging over them, but ANNIE MAGIC shaped much better than first time up over fences when third at Warwick last month and, with the return to shorter looking in her favour, she makes most appeal. Last year's winner Lazy Sunday isn't the type to stay down for too long and is feared most.

None of these have advanced their claims in recent outings but LAZY SUNDAY gets the vote ahead of Annie Magic.

MAJOR FORTUNE was most impressive when landing a hat-trick over C&D earlier this month. A 7lb penalty looks far from insurmountable for the Dan Skelton-trained gelding and he should take all of the beating. San Pedro escapes a penalty for his ready victory in a conditional jockeys' event at Plumpton recently and the seven-year-old isn't taken lightly. Twp Stori could find some improvement now faced with a stiffer test of stamina and he may fare best of the remainder.

MAJOR FORTUNE won easily here last week and a 7 lb penalty is unlikely to prevent him making it 4 in a row if showing up in similar form again. Last year's winner San Pedro also had plenty in hand when scoring last week and can give Dan Skelton's charge most to do.

San Pedro and MAJOR FORTUNE (nap) are both due to go up 6lb in future handicaps but the latter is preferred.

Galway Mahler appreciated the less-testing conditions when opening his account over fences at Huntingdon last month. Although a 7lb rise in the handicap seems more than fair for that victory, the softer ground here may prove the seven-year-old's undoing. With that in mind, the more solid proposition appears to be the in-form TWENTY TWENTY, who backed up his Wincanton triumph in December with a solid third the following month. C&D scorer Ramore Will could also have a say.

CAMULUS has hinted at a bigger effort in his time with Christian Williams and he's made a significant move to a stable enjoying a terrific season, so he gets the nod over recent winner Galway Mahler. Moodofthemoment is a danger if he can build on his latest effort, although he lacks consistency.

Venetia Williams' horses often run well after an absence and CAMULUS could be on a handy mark on his first run for his new yard.

There was plenty of encouragement to be taken from WISE GUY's handicap bow when weakening into third at Huntingdon earlier this month. An extended 2m3f trip appeared to stretch his stamina that day and compensation could await the five-year-old on this return to 2m. Double Click travelled with a lot more verve in the first-time cheekpieces at Leicester latest and the Flemensfirth gelding may give the selection most to think about. Bridge completes the shortlist.

DOUBLE CLICK found improvement for first-time cheekpieces at Leicester a month ago and, if the headgear continues to have a positive effect, he should take the beating. Bridge is a solid alternative and Arabescato is an interesting handicap debutant on just his second outing for his current stable.

Jim Boyle's TELLMESOMETHINGOOD went close at Plumpton before contesting a much stronger race than this at the meeting here last month.
