Nick Gifford's Koenigsstern gets in here off just a two lb higher mark than he carried when finishing runner-up at Warwick over two and a half miles last time out. I am hopeful that the extra three furlongs of today's trip will suit him.

Andy Irvine's Godot was pulled up on his seasonal debut in a Conditional Jockeys' Handicap at Ascot last month, but the nine-year-old could bounce back today. He normally runs well here at Lingfield, where he has yet to finish outside the first three in four career starts. His last win came over this C&D off just a lb lower mark in December 2024. He is a sound each-way bet here.

Nick Gifford could have a good day at Lingfield today, including winning the Surrey National with his progressive son of Soldier of Fortune, Aworkinprogress, who completed a five-timer over fences by winning his seasonal debut at Uttoxeter in November. He then finished a disappointing fifth when sent off 15-8 favourite in the Welsh Grand National Trial at Chepstow at the beginning of December. I don't know why he ran so badly that day, but I think if he had skipped that race and was coming here with his unbeaten record over fences still intact, he would be a lot shorter price today.

Christian Williams always seems to be among the winners in the first couple of months of the year, and he can take this for the second year in a row with Planned Paradise, who was an easy three-and-a-half-length winner of it twelve months ago off a seven-pound lower mark. He finished third over an inadequate two-and-a-half miles at Ludlow last month.

Ben Pauling's horses are in a rich vein of form at the moment, as shown by his 21% strike rate in the last two weeks. He can take this year's renewal of the Fleur de Lys Chase with Handstands, who ran well for a long way in the Betfair Chase over three miles one furlong at Haydock, where he only fell away on the run-in when last seen in November. Today's shorter trip will suit him better, and he has undergone wind surgery since. Although giving eight lbs to last year's winner Protektorat will be difficult, I think Pauling's seven-year-old is capable of doing it.

Jamie Snowden has his string running well at the moment. He has a 21% strike rate in the last fortnight. He can have another winner here with Audacious Annie, who has shown huge improvement since being fitted with cheekpieces in a two-mile, five-furlong handicap at Warwick in November, where she could have won but for a mistake at the last. Last time out, she failed to stay the extended three-mile trip at Kempton. The drop in trip on this sharp track should suit her front-running style.

Venetia Williams, by her high standards, is having a poor season so far, but she could win this year's renewal of the Peter Marsh Chase with her course specialist and four-time C&D winner Royale Pagaille, who won this race in 2021 and 2022. Now a twelve-year-old and carrying top weight of twelve stone, I still think he could roll back the years this afternoon around his favourite course.

Tom Lacey's Operation Manna has had a stop-start career. After winning five of his twelve starts, he made his belated chase debut at the age of ten on his seasonal return a month ago in a three-mile handicap at Exeter, where he stayed on strongly to finish second. He goes in here off the same mark of 125, and the extra couple of furlongs in today's trip should help.

Mark Walford's Empty Nest is back down to the same mark of 94 that he won off over this C&D last March. On his only other run over this C&D, he finished a half-length second in January of last year. Clearly he likes it here and is worth taking a chance on today.

Martin Keighley's Turndlightsdownlow has shown a lot of improvement since going handicapping. The six-year-old followed two comfortable wins at Kempton over two miles five furlongs by going down by just three quarters of a length to the upwardly mobile Kikijo at Sandown over two miles seven furlongs last time. Despite a seven lb rise in the handicap, he has a great chance here with the excellent Freddie Keighley once again taking off his seven lb claim.

The Harriet Dickin-trained The Grey Man only won one of his eight races over timber. He finished in a respectable fourth place on his seasonal debut at Fflos Las in October. Today he goes over fences for the first time. Off an opening mark of 102 and with Tabitha Worsley taking off her three lb claim, he has a chance if he takes to the larger obstacles.

Fergal O’Brien sends just one runner on the 280-mile trip to Newcastle, and that is Is This For Real. Tony Bloom's six-year-old gelding won a decent bumper at Kelso last season and finished fourth on his hurdling debut at Market Rasen before filling the same position but finishing much closer to the winner at Taunton in December. A couple of jumping mistakes proved costly there, particularly when he was in contention down the straight and would have finished a lot closer at the line but for a mistake at the last. If he can cut out the errors, he has a great chance of getting off the mark over timber here.

The Warren Greatrex-trained Premier was a decent winner of a flat nursery at Bath as a two-year-old back in 2024. He was backed into even-money favouritism when third at Plumpton on his handicap hurdle debut in November, but he put things right next time out when comfortably winning a big-field novice handicap at Taunton. He is eight lbs higher in the weights here, but that is counterbalanced by Will Featherstone's six lb claim.

Rod Millman's Tadreeb was completing a hat-trick of wins over today's C&D when winning this race twelve months ago. He has run that well since, and that was his last win to date, but he did show signs of a return to form here before Christmas, before disappointing at Southwell last time. However, as he has won five of his eleven races over this C&D, I expect a much better showing from him today.

Hansard has since franked that form by finishing second in the Grade 2 Wayward Lad Novices’ Chase at Kempton over Christmas.

If the trip is no issue, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him get compensation for his backers here this afternoon, with Sam Twiston-Davies taking over in the saddle.
