Haydock

Today, November 23, 2024ChaseClass 13m1fSoft

AHOY SENOR is a risky betting proposition due to his suspect jumping, but he looked as good as ever ridden more patiently than usual when third under top weight in the Old Roan at Aintree on his comeback last month and could be worth chancing. The obvious threat is Grey Dawning, who was the leading British-trained novice last season and should have even more to offer this term. Haydock specialist and defending champion Royale Pagaille completes the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Took really well to fences last term, bagging his third win in Grade 1 Turners Chase at the Cheltenham Festival and posting a solid third in Manifesto Novices Chase at Aintree final run. Most likeable sort who hasn't reached his ceiling.

    Verdict
    Not seen since falling 3 out in the Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham in January but he claimed the scalp of Bravemansgame on his return in this 12 months ago, further enhancing his superb record at this venue. Another big run could well be on the cards.

    Verdict
    Not a fluent jumper of fences but top-class on his day and shaped as if as good as ever when third in Old Roan at Aintree on return 4 weeks ago, leaving the impression he'd have pushed the winner closer had he been asked for his effort sooner under a more patient ride than usual. High on shortlist.

    Verdict
    Smart mare who arrives on the back of an excellent second season over fences, winning 3 times, notably the Grade 2 Mares' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival. Excuses in the Grand National final start and she's not taken lightly.

    Smart French chaser but seems better over hurdles (winner of the Cleeve Hurdle in 2022/23) and looks up against it at this level.

    Verdict
    Top-class chaser excellently ridden to win the King George at Kempton on Boxing Day. All the better for return when narrowly failing to add another Grade 1 to his CV in the Kauto Star at Down Royal 3 weeks ago and should be in the mix once more.

    Verdict
    Winner of the Brown Advisory Novices' Chase at the 2023 Cheltenham Festival. Came up short at the top level last season but back to his best when making all in the Charlie Hall at Wetherby 3 weeks ago. Will find this harder to dominate.

    Verdict
    King George winner in 2022 but went winless when not operating at his best last term, including when runner-up in this and the King George at Kempton. Just a respectable comeback in the Charlie Hall at Wetherby 3 weeks ago and opposable at this level nowadays. Blinkers now fitted.

    Verdict
    High-class chaser who got back to winning ways in Grade 2 Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham in January and similar form despite shaping as if the drop in trip was against him when fourth in the Ryanair. Excuses in Grand National and Punchestown Gold Cup last 2 starts but career best is required here.
