Home Free can stay ahead of the handicapper

Home Free (Ire)

• J: Harry Skelton
• T: Dan Skelton
• F:

Home Free shaped with promise when runner-up on his chasing debut at Hexham in May and he has shown better form to win both starts after returning from a break.

Home Free, who had been given a breathing operation prior to his reappearance, got off the mark over fences at Uttoxeter with more in hand than the margin of a neck would suggest and he followed up in emphatic fashion at Ayr four weeks ago, drawing 11 lengths clear after impressing with how well he jumped and travelled.

He has a 10 lb higher mark to contend with here but he still looks fairly treated based on that wide-margin win, and he has the Timeform 'p' to show he's likely to improve further over fences.

One Big Bang will relish step back up in trip

One Big Bang (Ire)

• J: C. M. Hogan
• T: James Owen
• F:

One Big Bang failed to win in Ireland but showed improved form to justify strong support in a handicap hurdle over this course and distance in March on his first start for James Owen, staying on strongly to score by eight lengths.

He then had little trouble following up in a novice hurdle at Uttoxeter on his final start of the campaign, but impressed with how readily he brushed aside his main rival, winning with more in hand than the margin of two and a quarter lengths would suggest.

One Big Bang was unable to complete the hat-trick on his return in a novice hurdle at Newton Abbot last month, but he ran his best race yet trying to give away a lot of weight over a trip shorter than ideal. He steps back up in trip and returns to handicap company on a good mark - he's 3 lb clear on Timeform's weight-adjusted ratings.

Hititi can build on promising comeback effort

Hititi (Fr)

• J: Brian Hughes
• T: Robert Walford
• F:

Hititi is rated higher over hurdles than fences - both with the BHA and with Timeform - but he showed enough when runner-up on his return to chasing at Chepstow last month to suggest he can prove as good over the larger obstacles.

Hititi found a last-time-out winner a length too strong at Chepstow but he pulled four and a half lengths clear of the third, showing that his lower chase mark underestimates him.

He's gone up 3 lb but still looks well treated on his hurdles form and he remains open to improvement after only four starts over fences, as denoted by the Timeform 'p' attached to his rating. Brian Hughes is a notable jockey booking.
