That is the best rating in this race and was backed up by a good topspeed figure.
It does belt the odd fence and it will need to jump around here but given a solid round of jumping,it will go very close.
Robbie goes well here and wont be far away but is off a career high mark now.
Hi George is lightly raced but is 0w-1p-7r in this grade and unseated its rider last time.
Back Roc Dapsis 12pts at 4.5 at various bookies-4th(-12pts) Didnt jump well enough.
105 Doncaster-Trainer John Quinn has a fine 10 wins from 23 runs record with his hurdlers here in the last 5 years and holds good prospects of improving that record with Kashmir Peak.This horse has only had 8 starts over hurdles and looks to still be improving.Its 1 out of 1 at this track and is 2w-0p-4r in fields of 9 or less like this.
First Mohican makes its handicap debut and is probably the danger.Im no big fan of the jockey but as an unexposed horse,it has to be respected.
Nicky Henderson has won this race twice in the last 3 years,so on that basis,Laudatory is feared but isnt at its best on very soft ground.
Back Kashmir Peak 12pts at 4.5 at Various bookies(Accept 4.0)-Won(+42pts)Given a perfect ride and stayed on well.(DT+30pts)
140 Doncaster-Forgotten Gold appeals to me as the value in a pretty tight race.
It ran well last time,getting close to last seasons best.Is 3w-2p-9 in fields of 9 or less and 2w-2p-5r when retuning to the track within 28 days like today.
Night of Milan won this race last year may well have been teed for a repeat after a couple of quiet runs over hurdles but it probably prefers slight better ground.
Grandads Horse should run well but its trainer is 0 from 18 with his chasers here and that has to be a worry.
Herdsman ran just okay on its seasonal debut but has won second time out for the last 2 seasons,it could be the main danger.
Back Forgotten Gold 10pts at 5.0 at various bookies(Accept 4.3)-4th(-10pts)Money came late but was very one paced.(DT+20pts)
325 Domcaster-Quite a few have questions to answer here and there isnt many that can be seriously fancied.
Serenity Now is a fair enough favourite after a good run on its handicap debut last time.If it repeats that effort then it will be tough to beat but I dont see why the gap in prices is so big between it and Light The City,who finished just behind it last time.
This horse hasnt had many chances itself over hurdles and is 2w-1p-7r in small fields and 2w-1p-4r in December.
Back Light The City 7pts at 6.5 at various bookies(Accept 5.0)-UP(-7pts)Small profit on the day(DT+13pts)
Monthly Total-6.25pts
