Sky Sports Racing Novices' Limited Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Off time: 14:52 | Winning time: 6m 20.62s

Switch Hitter²⁰⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Bryony Frost| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 132| BF

2/1

Improved form when narrowly taking 8-runner handicap hurdle at Kempton in March. Fell before the race took shape back there a month later but he's a point winner so interesting on chase debut.

Form: 5/2181F-

Outonpatrol³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Adrian Heskin| T: A King| OR: 127

15/8

Hurdles winner who was well backed when making a successful chase debut at Ludlow. Went in again at that venue over 23.8f a month ago and up just 2 lb for that.

Form: 8-14231

No Anxiety²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 125| CD

6/4

Has made an encouraging start over fences, winning at Uttoxeter in May and better than ever back from a break when landing 3-runner C&D handicap a month ago. Up 5 lb.

Form: 33-1231

Forecasts

No Anxiety (6/4), Outonpatrol (15/8), Switch Hitter (2/1)

SWITCH HITTER takes on a pair of last-time-out winners in No Anxiety and Outonpatrol on reappearance, but he's a chaser on looks and won his point, so could easily hit the ground running over fences.
