Forecasts
Red River (6/5), Darius Des Bois (9/4), Coup De Pinceau (7/2), Theclockisticking (7/2), Head To The Stars (10/1)
A strong looking novices' chase in which it would be dangerous too dismiss any of the five runners. Both Coup De Pinceau and Theclockisticking were found lovely races in which to be introduced to their respective chasing careers. However, although a degree of proficiency and experience has been established, a 6lb winners penalty is also incurred. Wind surgery and a step up in trip proved beneficial for Darius Des Bois over hurdles but fellow chasing newcomer RED RIVER is of more interest. Absent since winning at Musselburgh in February, this ultra-progressive novice hurdler (145-rated) remains an intriguing prospect over fences for the much respected Kim Bailey.
