Bet With Tote On Racing & Sports Handicap Chase

Handicap chase debutante; 2-10 over hurdles (both wins on good ground) and rated 4lb higher in that sphere; not many positives to take from three beginners' chase runs on soft at 15.5f-2m2f; this trip more suitable but needs the forecast rain to miss.

Killarney beginners' chase winner (23.5f, yielding); 100-30 favourite on handicap chase debut at Down Royal in November (3m, gd-yld) and was under pressure but in contention when falling two out (Battle Of Mirbat won); off since and returns with yard in hot form; ground versatile and could go well.

Gained third chase win off 5lb lower at Down Royal in November; some decent runs in defeat since including when a 12.5l fourth of 13 at Leopardstown on latest (28.5f, yld-sft); this trip more suitable; place shout but may need more help from the handicapper to get his head back in front.

Decisive winner of handicap chase at Wexford (25.5f, good) last July off 4lb lower; pulled up both starts since returning from a break, in the Ulster National and over the banks at Punchestown; this more suitable but others arrive in better form.

1-7 over hurdles and rated 117; earned an opening chase mark of 115 and could only manage a 25l fifth of 10 in first handicap in this sphere at Down Royal (3m2f, good); eased 2lb; best hurdles form on yielding to soft and heavy so rain would enhance her prospects.
