Begin The Luck
A number of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for BEGIN THE LUCK to go one better than his good recent Wincanton second and end a losing run. Gore Point wasn't seen to ideal effect when fourth at Worcester last time and rates the main danger ahead of Gerard Mentor.

Scored twice over hurdles at Newton Abbot in the summer and did too much too soon when fourth in handicap chase at Worcester (16.5f, good to soft) 43 days ago.

Refitted with cheekpieces when a good second of 8 in handicap chase at Wincanton (20.2f, good) 7 days ago.

Ex-Irish maiden hurdler/chaser who could never land a blow dropped to 2m when sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Warwick (16.2f, soft) 8 days ago.
