Get Great Odds At VBET Handicap Chase

Off time: 18:20 | Winning time: 5m 10.55s

Bridle Loanan²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Joshua Moore| T: G & J Moore| OR: 114

8/1

Doubled chase tally at Fontwell (19.5f) in December but underwhelming efforts have followed, last of 4 in a Plumpton handicap (19.7f) last month. Not the easiest to weigh up on that basis.

Rebel Royal¹⁴⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| OR: 113| C| D

6/5

Both career victories have come on good or faster and possible longer trips/softer ground caught him out at Exeter in November. Returns fresh with yard in good form, so one to consider.

Form: 1P-P408

Mortens Leam²²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Luca Morgan⁽⁵⁾| T: M Hawker| OR: 112| D

9/4

Signed off for last season with a Wetherby win. Plenty of creditable efforts in defeat this campaign, drop-out tactics not the order of the day when midfield at Carlisle last month. Not discounted.

Form: 234P86

Statistical⁴²²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs H Cobb| OR: 107| CD

50/1

Tramore maiden chase winner who landed a C&D match race (rival fell first) in April 2019. Pulled up the following month (final start for Emma Lavelle) and failed to complete in points since.

Form: 1P1/PPP-

Full Trottle^t⁴⁰

Age: 12| Weight: 11-1| J: Alexander Thorne⁽⁵⁾| T: J Mason| OR: 106| D

12/1

Prolific winning hunter chaser but returned from a lengthy absence to finish well held in 2 handicaps before Christmas. Fell at Fontwell (19.5f) in March but not entirely dismissed.

Form: 121/85F

Fresno Emery⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: James Best| T: R Walford| OR: 105

6/1

Fair winning hurdler who ran well when third over 18f here in October. Disappointed at Wincanton in November and fell early (on back of a wind op) at Exeter last month. Not one to write off.

Form: 303-30F

Forecasts

Rebel Royal (6/5), Mortens Leam (9/4), Fresno Emery (6/1), Bridle Loanan (8/1), Full Trottle (12/1), Statistical (50/1)

REBEL ROYAL wasn't at his best in a pair of 3m handicaps at Exeter back in November but this rates a much more suitable assignment now returning fresh from a break and he may be up to capitalising on his career-low mark. Fresno Emery and Mortens Leam head up the dangers.
