Victorian Windows Novices' Handicap Chase

Two wins from 23 starts under rules and not seen in this sphere since 2015. Been running to a respectable level in point-to-points recently and on a fair mark but the concern would be that all his best efforts have come on soft or heavy ground and he would look unlikely to get that here.

Won a point-to-point last year but is a 12-race maiden under rules. Went close last time at Uttoxeter, just failing to reel in the winner and that was his best effort over fences to date. 5lb rise for that a little harsh but in form at least and will get similar conditions once again.

Yet to win in nine starts and soundly beaten on his latest three efforts. Needs to show more spark and sort his jumping errors out before he can be considered.

Multiple point-to-point winner back in 2014/2015 but interrupted career since. Bounced back to form last time at Wincanton, winning a four-runner contest, but drop back in trip probably isn't ideal and ground may not be as quick.

Won a Plumpton novices' hurdle in November but has struggled badly in handicaps since and pulled up last time on chase debut. Drop back in trip could help but more needed.

Unplaced on all seven starts and she has beaten very few home in those efforts. Pulled up last time and impossible to fancy from well out of the handicap.
