BALLYLINCH (5) followed up a win at Sedgefield with a 12L second in a 3m3 1/4f handicap chase at the same venue. Looks capable of registering his third career win. ELLEON (8) returned to action with a 2.5L third in a 2m7 3/4f novices' handicap chase at Newcastle five weeks ago. Strong claims of delivering a victory. OCEANS RED (6) enters calculations following a 1.5L second in a 3m1f handicap hurdle at Huntingdon just over a month ago. CRIXUS'S ESCAPE (3) is another to consider following a 6.8L third in a 3m3 1/4f handicap chase at Sedgefield last month.
