5/1
Winner of novice hurdles at Southwell and Stratford on summer ground. Not at her best in two runs this term and she needs to bounce back. Yard are 12-54 with horses making their chasing debuts in novice handicaps.

20/1
His three career victories came in back to back races in 2014 and he paid a heavy price as a result. Appeared to be finding his right level at Leicester over Christmas but has been off the track since. Probably best watched unless the market indicates otherwise.

5/1
Beat a professional loser at Plumpton and soundly beaten here last time. Looks to have enough to do at the weights unless tackling these larger obstacles brings out more.

7/1
Made all to land a couple of races last year but has never looked that straightforward. Makes his chasing debut and if he is fainthearted this new discipline may find him out.

Age: 8|  Weight: 11-2| J: Adrian Heskin| T: M Pitman| OR:  110
6/1
Has the most chasing experience of these but has finished last in small fields on his last two starts. Jumping has been untidy at times and best effort came in the mud,when forcing a 1/7 shot to pull out all the stops at Leicester in March.

5/4
Makes chasing debut having landed a couple of low key affairs in effortless style. Latest victory received a boost when the runner-up scored on Sunday. Stable are 3-4 with their chasers in the last two weeks and took this in 2016.

Forecasts

Defining Year (5/4), Adrrastos (5/1), Avispa (5/1), Spoilt Rotten (6/1), Mr Kit Cat (7/1), Exitas (20/1)

Verdict

Adrrastos has more scope than all of his rivals and should find races over the larger obstacles but his handicap mark appears harsh judged on what he has achieved. Avispa represents a yard that do well with this type in these races but she has been below form this term. DEFINING YEAR arrives in better shape than all of his rivals and steps up in class for his chasing debut. He has had his confidence boosted by two effortless victories in minor company and, if taking to this new career, will take all the beating.
