Adrian Flux Bar Opening Today Novices’ Handicap Chase

Runners: 3 runners

Type: Chase Turf

Surface: Turf

Weather: Showers

Form: 4654-1 D

Last run: 22 days

W: 12st 0lb

6 yo Gelding

OR: 100

Form & Verdict

Unplaced over hurdles but justified favouritism in good style on last month's Huntingdon chasing debut; that wasn't much of a contest and he's 6lb higher but it's recent form; could win again.

J: Gavin Sheehan

T: Jamie Snowden

Comprehensive well-backed winner of last month's chasing debut here (3m, good); jumping not always great, and the form has taken some knocks already, but 6lb rise for that major career-best effort looks lenient; case decent, assuming the drop back in trip is coped with.

7 yo Mare

OR: 96

Form & Verdict

Both wins gained here, including a C&D chasing success in March; absent since April so has fitness to prove, while she is one of a few in this line-up that likes to race prominently; still has strong claims.

J: Bryony Frost

T: Lucy Wadham

Hurdle/chase winner at Fakenham in the spring and didn't look suited by a right-handed track when second at Huntingdon in April when last seen; ought to be a strong contender off this mark and with yard among the winners.

Form & Verdict

Proved he stays well when winning a 3m2f Southwell handicap hurdle in February (first time in cheekpieces); good effort next time but well beaten final two starts in the spring; headgear missing for chasing debut and a bit to prove; usually makes the running.

Verdict

Regarde has the advantage of proven fitness and form but the race he won at Huntingdon didn’t seem to amount to much. Dual course winner BRANDISOVA can make her ability around here pay dividends.[Jonathan Neesom]
