Sun Racing The Home Of Racing Novices' Handicap Chase

Consistent and effective up to 2m4f on good and soft, he performed to his level last time when second beaten 6½l by a well-handicapped rival off 99 — just 1lb higher here, he rates a solid each-way threat.

Consecutive victories have her building momentum, handling this trip and ground effectively; her latest success was authoritative — 12 lengths clear off a mark 11lb lower — and now chasing a treble, the form reads well for her chances here.

Struggling to make his mark over hurdles, he was beaten 41 lengths in a novice contest at Uttoxeter last time and the pattern of falls and pulled ups gives little confidence; handles 2m on good ground but needs a dramatic upturn to feature here.

Consistent in placing and comfortable on this trip and going, the first-time tongue-tie is an interesting addition to help sharpen his closing effort; Fontwell was a run compromised by jumping lapses and probably served as a prep, so a livelier showing is on the cards.

Well held at Worcester last time and yet to show much promise under rules, he sits at the foot of the field on our figures; the first-time tongue-tie offers a possible angle but a substantial turnaround in form looks required.
