Ian Williams

He has won two hurdle races and a chase from 2m to 2m 3f on ground varying from good to soft to heavy. Won on his latest outing in a chase when 5-2jt-fav at Towcester over 2m 3f (soft) last month, beating Ballyoliver by 3/4l. Carries a 7lb penalty today for that success.

Jan Faltejsek
G A Charlton

A winner of a NH flat race at 2m on good to firm ground, but that win was over two years ago. Finished 10l behind Mr Syntax when fourth of 7 at 2-1fav on his latest outing in a chase here over 2m 1f (good) in March.

Race Verdict

UPTHEMSTEPS responded positively to the application of blinkers (worn again tonight) when beating subsequent winner Ballyoliver in similarly testing conditions at Towcester eight days ago and, with that confidence booster under his belt, he is fancied to defy a 7lb penalty and complete a quickfire double. Pen Dorada looks the obvious danger on the formbook, but Freddie Brown is no forlorn hope off bottom-weight either. South O' The Border has yet to convince over fences.

Selection: Upthemsteps        Danger: Pena Dorada        Alternative: Freddie Brown
