Winless in his last five starts, with a pulled-up effort in recent form and a seventh last time out, Barton Sky faces a stiff task on our figures — ranked 11 of 13 — though he has run over today's trip before and the 24-day break at least suggests he returns fresh.

Chanceawetmorning fell last time out, which tempers enthusiasm, though he was fourth two starts back and a winner five starts back, and has run over today's going before; the 166 lb burden is a stiff ask for a runner ranked seventh of thirteen.

Runner-up last time out after an eighth two starts back, Fort Dino did win three starts back and has experience of today's going in his favour, though carrying 166 lb and an eighth-of-thirteen rating suggest he faces a stiff task from the middle of the pack.

SR 103 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.
Landed a win two starts back but hasn't raced in over 960 days, making his return the defining question; he has run over today's trip and a rating of 119 gives him claims, yet the lengthy absence and a hefty 166 lb ask leave plenty to prove.

Jarrive De Mee has experience of today's distance and going, and his two wins three and four starts back underline his class, with our rating of 129 marking him a leading threat in this field; the concern is a 419-day absence, which makes his return to fitness the key question.

Largy Hill arrives on the back of back-to-back wins and has experience of today's going, while our rating of 121 marks him as a genuine danger in this field; the single concern is that he returns from a lay-off of over 945 days, and fitness must be the question.

Consistent without being a winner of late, Love Me Tender nevertheless appeals as the one to beat here — rated highest of the 13 runners, he has experience of today's trip and conditions, and returns after 58 days carrying 166 lb, though connections will be keen to see him convert placed efforts into something more.

Love Me Tender (SR:131, 6/4) is the highest-rated horse in the field by a clear margin over Largy Hill (SR:124) and I Will Be Baie (SR:121), and crucially carries the same weight as every rival at 11-12 — so the SR advantage translates directly without any weight offset. The Mullins yard is running four horses here, but this one is their #1 signal: it carries Harry Cobden (22% career strike rate, the most accomplished jockey in the race), has steamed in 38% in the market — the only horse in the field with meaningful market support — and at 5 years old it is the youngest and most likely to be progressive. The form string 3345-4 shows consistent placed efforts and this is its chase debut in a beginners' context where its hurdle ability (SR:131) should be class-superior. Mullins at 26% strike rate with a steamer ridden by Cobden is an extremely strong combination.
Each-way alternative: Largy Hill.
Main danger: I Will Be Baie — I Will Be Baie (SR:121, 10/3) has a form figure of '1' in its recent string and is the second Mullins runner with Paul Townend aboard (38% career strike rate), suggesting it is the yard's second string and capable of exploiting any jumping error from Love Me Tender on chase debut.
⚖Case against4clamped▾
Chase debut (form string 3345-4 is all hurdles) — schooling over fences is unproven and a jumping error at a chase obstacle can end any chance immediately.
Mullins runs four horses here; I Will Be Baie (SR:121) is ridden by Paul Townend (38% strike rate), who outranks Cobden within this yard and has drifted 38% suggesting connections may not be confiden…
Form reading '3345-4' shows no win in six starts and most recently a 4th — no recent racecourse win to anchor confidence at a price as short as 6/4 in a beginners' chase.
HG flag 't' (tongue tie) on a horse making its chase debut adds a combined unknown — new discipline plus headgear flag suggests the trainer is still managing something with this horse.
