M J Quinlan (3)
K Burke
Placed in two chases from 11 starts. Fell at the 8th when 8-1 at Fontwell over 3m 2f (soft) in a chase won by Bring It On Home in December last year on his latest outing.
PACHA D'OUDAIRIES has proved himself a model of consistency of late, finishing a fine second at Newton Abbot most recently, and he rates a solid bet to lay down another bold challenge. Reymysterio took a crashing fall at Fontwell when last seen back in December but his previous form gives him a shout, while The Boss and Normally are both better than they showed last time and could be capable of getting involved.
