Richard Newland Racing Novices' Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Off time: 14:05 | Winning time: 6m 8.8s

Chief Black Robe³³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Tom Broughton⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 115

8/13

Much improved when opening his account over fences for new yard at Market Rasen (23.8f) and made very light work of winning next 2 starts at Newton Abbot. Outstanding claims of completing 4-timer.

Form: 222-111

Tiger Orchid^p¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Charlie Hammond| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 115| CD

3/1

Won twice over hurdles last season and produced a career best when making a winning start over fences over C&D 12 days ago. Must be respected.

Form: 513-641

Moon King^b,t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Cian Chester⁽¹⁰⁾| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 111| CD

12/1

Doubled his tally over hurdles here (23f) last summer. Better for return when fifth at Newton Abbot (26.5f, good) 13 days ago, looking decidedly awkward with his usual tongue strap left off. Tongue tie back on for chase debut.

Form: 196P-35

Hardy Boy¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Lorcan Williams| T: B Pauling| OR: 108| BF

13/2

Dual hurdles winner who opened his account at the third attempt over fences when successful at Huntingdon (19.9), despite again jumping none too fluently. Lost all chance when whipping around at the start here 12 days ago.

Form: 46-321P

Forecasts

Chief Black Robe (8/13), Tiger Orchid (3/1), Hardy Boy (13/2), Moon King (12/1)

CHIEF BLACK ROBE continues to thrive, winning all 3 starts over fences for this yard, and he still looks ahead of his mark despite another rise. Tiger Orchid is the obvious threat having made a winning chase bow over C&D 12 days ago.
