BetVictor 'Jump Starter' Chase (Novices' Limited Handicap)

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: L P Aspell| T: Evan Williams| OR: 119

Was good enough to win from 11lb higher over hurdles last year, but has not been as good over fences so far. 2m and soft ground suits and if he could reproduce his Taunton effort from January now 3lb lower he would have a squeak.

Form: F55634

San Pedro De Senam^b1²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 119| D

Best effort over fences was a wide margin win at Plumpton (2m1f, heavy) in January. Disappointed next time and failed to complete latest, but on a handy looking mark if he can go clear with first-time blinkers added to sharpen his focus.

Form: 82313U

No Dice^t⁷¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 116

0-7 over fences and weakened out of it on stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, heavy) when last seen in December. Reasonably well treated if he could recapture/better some of his Irish form, but does have a bit to prove.

Form: 443F3-5

Lake Field^t1¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls| OR: 115| BF

Backed up a wide margin Newbury win (2m½f, soft) with another success under a penalty at Catterick in December. Also went well at Haydock next time before disappointing at Ludlow. Tongue strap now fitted and there may still be more to come from him.

Form: 0-21136

Free Stone Hill^t¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: David England| T: D Skelton| OR: 113| C| D

Ran well a number of times over hurdles/fences in 2017 without managing to win and looks well handicapped on that basis from today's mark. Disappointed on reappearance at Huntingdon, however and probably wants better ground than this.

Form: 352F30

Forecasts

The Gipper (13/8), No Dice (15/8), Free Stone Hill (2/1), San Pedro De Senam (11/1), Lake Field (12/1)

A race where holes can be picked in the cases of all the quintet and the suggestion is SAN PEDRO DE SENAM, who looks well treated if the blinkers can get his mind on the job. The Gipper and Lake Field also both sport first-time headgear, which muddies the waters to some extent. They look to have claims too, while No Dice can't be ruled out.
