Special John
SPECIAL JOHN is very much a young stayer to keep on the right side of and he's taken to complete the hat-trick. De Legislator remains of interest having been shuffled back at a crucial stage at Kelso, while the progressive Express Surprise is also bidding for a 3-timer.

Generally struggled since winning this last year but is 7 lb lower as a result and some encouragement over an inadequate trip at Ludlow last time.

Point/bumper/maiden hurdle winner who completed the set when seeing off 12 rivals in Ffos Las handicap chase in October.

Took well to fences last season and easily bagged his second success in 3-runner handicap chase at Plumpton in March. Good seconds at Newbury/Plumpton since but current mark seems to sum him up now.

Fairly useful chaser for Gary & Josh Moore who left his opening pair of exploits for new yard well behind in a refitted visor when winning at Wetherby 6 weeks ago, holding on gamely.

Veteran who ended a long losing run when scoring at Fakenham in October and improved on that form when taking 6-runner handicap (29.1f, soft) at same course under this rider 4 weeks ago.
