Exeter Race 3 - Unibet Middle Distance Series Veterans' Handicap Chase

LE LIGERIEN (3) displayed best form during December winning by 5.5L a lower level 4000m veterans handicap chase at Lingfield. Ticks plenty of boxes. Leading player. STONER'S CHOICE (2) ran creditably last month when 3.5L second contesting a 4200m handicap hurdle at Kempton. Enjoys quicker going and arrives unexposed over fences. Holds appeal. ANNSAM (1) is a former Listed chase winner. Drops sharply in grade after pulling up attempting a 4800m premier handicap chase at Ascot. Warrants a market check. THE WIDDOW MAKER (5) brings winning course and distance form. May make the frame.

Useful type. Freshened for 31 days. Last start pulled up at Ascot on February 15 over 4780m. Before that finished fourth in a small field at Ascot on January 18 over 4780m, 9 len behind In D'or carrying 77kg at $9.50. Fought on last time. Capable enough and is worth including.

Useful type. Last outing finished second of 12 starters at Kempton Park on February 22 over 4200m, 3.5 len behind Saint Anapolino carrying 73.5kg at $11. Run before finished seventh of 11 runners at Ascot on January 18 over 3860m, 25 len behind Altobelli carrying 71.5kg at $34. Sure to improve again. Can return to the winner's list.
