Verdict

A few in with a squeak but MR MCWHINNY has won 4 of his last 5 starts in this discipline and having run well when finding one too strong over hurdles last month, Tom Ellis' 8-y-o can quickly regain the winning thread back chasing. Two To Tango is proving consistent this season, so heads up the opposition, with last-time-out winner Rangatira Jack rounding off the shortlist on return.

7	Thrived since joining current yard. Cruised clear to make it a hat-trick (fourth win from last 5 chase starts) in a small-field event at Newton Abbot (21f) in September and ran well despite being unable to continue his winning sequence over hurdles last time. Fancied to be bang there again. 1st Pick 7 Mr Mcwhinny (Ire) Jockey: Jack Andrews Trainer: Tom Ellis J: Jack Andrews T: Tom Ellis	100	-	-	-	34%

3	Fitted with cheekpieces when finally getting off the mark at Stratford (19f) in March. Placed in 4 of 5 starts since, possibly unlucky not to collect at that venue last month (untidy leap at the last). Should go well again. 2nd Pick 3 Two To Tango Jockey: Charlie Todd Trainer: Emma Lavelle J: Charlie Todd T: Emma Lavelle	95	-	-	-	17%

10	Down the weights and bolted up in 3-runner event at Warwick (2½m, good) when last seen in May, under pressure a fair way out but responding well. Returns from just 2 lb higher but doesn't have much of a record fresh. 3rd Pick 10 Rangatira Jack Jockey: Sean Houlihan Trainer: Linda Blackford J: Sean Houlihan T: Linda Blackford	97	-	-	-	15%
