HELLO JUDGE (2) was a good 1. 75L winner of a course and distance handicap chase before placing second the next start tackling the same track and trip. Can bounce back making seasonal reappearance. BUSTY BOY (1) hopes to turn three runner-up efforts into a win after placing second most recently attempting the Highland National Handicap Chase at Perth during April. Could go one better. ALSHADHIAN (7) disappointed missing by 6L placing second in a 2m1/2f handicap chase at Worcester. Steps up in trip for this assignment. FORGED WELL (4) cannot be discounted. Holds winning form at this venue making chase debut.
