Deafening Silence
DEAFENING SILENCE bumped into a thrown-in rival on return and shaped really well when third in the Welsh National last time, arguably just paying the price late for pressing on with the Gold Cup-bound Haiti Couleurs. He can gain a deserved first win of the season here, though Myretown remains potentially very well treated if his jumping holds up trying this marathon trip for the first time. Holokea is steadily progressive and can make his presence felt in this higher grade.

Looked smart prospect when landing the Ultima in good style at last season's Cheltenham Festival. Prone to the odd mistake, though, and that has held him back both starts this term, in front and yet to be asked for an effort when blundering 3 out in the Peter Marsh here. Remains open to progress.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHaydock Park3m 1f 125yGood to SoftChase4/6Newbury3m 1f 214yGood to SoftChaseF/24Cheltenham3m 1fGood to SoftChase1/24Kelso2m 7f 96ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/4Windsor3m 53ySoft (Good to Soft in places)ChaseF/6- 5Deafening SilenceJ: Harry SkeltonT: Dan Skelton4215-23Age 97/27/210/3

Goes well in the mud, including a Warwick novice success last season. Good reappearance second behind a handicap blot in the Rehearsal at Newcastle and shaped well again when third in the Welsh National after Christmas, the only one to keep tabs with the winner when that one pressed on.

Smart staying chaser who most recently scored at Uttoxeter last February. In the firing line for a long way when fifth of 17 in the Welsh National at Chepstow (30.6f, good to firm) 49 days ago and he holds solid claims from 2 lb lower mark.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosChepstow3m 6f 136yGood to SoftChase5/17Aintree3m 1f 188ySoftChasepu/13Sandown Park3m 4f 146yGoodChase6/19Aintree4m 2f 74yGood to SoftChasepu/34Uttoxeter3mSoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/8- 9HolokeaJ: James BowenT: Mickey Bowen2-21222Age 78/110/19/1

Confirmed the promise of his chase debut when getting off the mark at Ffos Las in October. Has continued to shape well in finishing runner-up all 3 starts since, collared only by Neo King's late surge in a 16-runner event at Windsor 4 weeks ago. Can continue on the upgrade.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWindsor3m 4f 162ySoftChase2/16Cheltenham3m 1f 56yGood to SoftChase2/8Uttoxeter3m 2f 13ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/8Ffos Las3m 1f 60ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/13Worcester2m 7fGoodChase2/8- 4Richmond LakeJ: Brian HughesT: Donald McCain2P8-322Age 108/19/115/2

Regular in these staying handicaps and he arrives in decent form, placed for the third time this season when runner-up in the Peter Marsh here (25.6f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Others rate as likelier winners but he can give another good account.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHaydock Park3m 1f 125yGood to SoftChase2/6Aintree2m 3f 200ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/6Bangor-on-dee3m 30ySoftChase3/7Aintree3m 210yGoodChase8/12Cheltenham3m 1fGood to SoftChasepu/24- 8Rivers CornerJ: Freddie GingellT: Joe Tizzard12-3331Age 89/19/110/1

Better than ever sporting a first-time tongue stap when easily winning 7-runner handicap chase at Wincanton (26.7f, heavy, 11/4) 30 days ago. This will be tougher from 9 lb higher but stamina is clearly his strong suit and he's worth a crack at this grade.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWincanton3m 2f 162yHeavy (Soft in places)Chase1/7Newbury3m 1f 214yGood to SoftChase3/6Sandown Park3m 4f 146yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase3/6Exeter2m 3f 48yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase3/9Newbury2m 7f 86yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase2/6- 6Git MakerJ: Gavin SheehanT: Jamie Snowden/030-3PAge 109/115/28/1

Placed in Kim Muir at the Cheltenham Festival and Scottish Grand National in spring 2024. Hasn't reached the same heights since and ran no sort of race when pulled up in the Welsh National last time.

Lightly-raced sort who has tasted success over both hurdles and fences and he's resumed from an absence in reasonable heart, a very patient ride possibly not suiting ideally when fifth in the Tommy Whittle here (25.6f) in December. Career best needed this time, however.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHaydock Park3m 1f 125ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase5/12Bangor-on-dee3m 30yHeavy (Soft in places)Chase4/8Kelso2m 7f 96ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase3/4Wetherby3m 45yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase1/4Carlisle1m 7f 207ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase3/7- 7Grand GesteJ: Danny McMenaminT: Joel Parkinson & Sue Smith4P-221PAge 712/110/111/1

Has proved a different proposition switched to fences this season, finding just one too good at Carlisle and Newcastle prior to easily landing the Tommy Whittle at Haydock (25.6f, good to soft). Too bad to be true at Doncaster last time and it'd be no surprise to see him get back on track.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDoncaster2m 7f 214ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chasepu/8Haydock Park3m 1f 125ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/12Newcastle2m 4f 19yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase2/10Carlisle2m 4f 198yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase2/12Wetherby3m 26ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Hurdlepu/12- 11Neo KingJ: James TurnerT: Evan Williams32-2261Age 814/114/112/1

Narrow second in the Southern National in November and produced an improved effort when finally getting off the mark in a 16-runner handicap chase at Windsor (28.7f, soft, 16/1) 27 days ago by 1½ lengths from Holokea. Ben Jones replaced by 5-lb claimer but not fully discounted despite 9 lb rise.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWindsor3m 4f 162ySoftChase1/16Kelso4m 90ySoftChase6/11Fontwell Park3m 3f 149yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase2/11Ffos Las3m 3f 208yGoodChase2/3Exeter3m 6f 153yHeavy (Soft in places)Chase2/8- 1Top Of The BillJ: Toby McCain-MitchellT: Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies/4P1-19Age 1025/125/128/1

Has proved temperamental but he signed off last term with success at Ffos Las and returned from 8 months off with a comfortable all-the-way victory over 25f here. Not in the same mood in the Tommy Whittle last time though and others rate as more solid propositions.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHaydock Park3m 1f 125ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Chase9/12Haydock Park3m 1f 125yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Chase1/10Ffos Las2m 7f 177yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase1/8Sandown Park3m 4f 146yHeavyChasepu/10Carlisle2m 3f 210yGood to Soft (Good in places)Chase4/4
