Races PRB Newbury - ENG

Returns from a 334-day spell. Finished off last prep with a win in a steeplechase (4100m) at Musselburgh, scoring by 4 lengths. Reliable jumper with seven wins to his name from 19 appearances. Set to run well again while fresh.

Disappointed when fifth in a steeplechase (5000m) at Cheltenham first-up from a spell. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another try.

Was unplaced first-up two starts back in a steeplechase (4700m) at Chepstow. Improved and filled a minor prize last start in a steeplechase (4000m) at this track, beaten 2 lengths. On his best jumping form is sure to prove hard to beat.

Resumes today for a new stable. No cheque here.

Kicked off this campaign well in a steeplechase (4800m) at Ascot four weeks ago, finishing second. Will prove tough to beat.

Opened the campaign with a solid third in a steeplechase (4000m) at Warwick then last start saluted in a steeplechase (3900m) at Wetherby 29 days ago. Ideally placed to win again.

Eight-year-old gelding who returns from a break. Finished off last campaign when seventh in a G1 steeplechase (6000m) at Auteuil. Resuming in tougher grade. Needs to find best to be competitive here.

Back from a break of seven months. Wound up last campaign with a fourth in a steeplechase (4800m) at Uttoxeter, beaten 27 lengths. Has ability and worth including.

Had just three runs last campaign and went to the paddock a winner, scoring over 4850m in a steeplechase at Exeter. Can return with a strong run.

Seven-year-old fresh from a spell. Has won first-up before and rarely runs a bad race when fresh. Should be primed for another solid outing. Among the chances.

Returns from a lay-off. Last went to the races eight months ago when he did not complete the course in a hurdle (4800m) at Cheltenham. In the mix if he is anywhere near right.
