Howard Pearl 80th Classic Novices' Handicap Chase

Off time: 15:20 | Winning time: 6m 1.66s

Vision De Maine^t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Jack Tudor| T: D Pipe| OR: 96| D

1/1

Irish point winner who justified strong support and left his hurdles form behind when making a successful chase debut in 3m Uttoxeter handicap on return last month. Plenty of size about him and the type to progress well beyond this level.

Form: 1/2707-1

Coconut Twist^b1²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: Harry Reed| T: Daisy Hitchins| OR: 95| D

7/1

Point winner and made a successful chase debut at Newton Abbot (21f) in May. Has shaped as if still in form since and sterner headgear tried now.

Form: 163246

Kap Chidley^t¹⁹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr Edward Vaughan⁽⁷⁾| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 92

8/1

Unreliable maiden but has slipped to a good mark judged on a couple of bits of form and first time back might be the time to catch him.

Form: 25743-5

Caeruleum^t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Harry Kimber| T: R Walford| OR: 88

3/1

Has a race like this in him judged on the pick of his efforts and ran creditably on his comeback at Fontwell 3 weeks ago. One to note for in-form yard.

Form: 24522-3

Outback Frontiers⁵³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Brendan Powell| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 81

20/1

Scored over hurdles at Stratford in July but set a lot to do at Newton Abbot last time. Stamina to prove now chasing.

Form: 0-47126

Ballygelly^t²³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: James Best| T: Mrs E Bishop| OR: 73| D

11/1

No promise in 3 runs over hurdles at the start of the year but had won a point before that. Upped markedly in trip for chase debut.

Form: 21708-

Captain Copper^t²⁰¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Conor Ring| T: R Potter| OR: 67

50/1

Little form under Rules.

Form: 5P8P5P-

Design Flaw^p⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Lorcan Murtagh| T: Cynthia Woods| OR: 62

200/1

Looks of little account.

Form: 3P5-88P

Forecasts

Vision De Maine (1/1), Caeruleum (3/1), Coconut Twist (7/1), Kap Chidley (8/1), Ballygelly (11/1), Outback Frontiers (20/1), Captain Copper (50/1), Design Flaw (200/1)

VISION DE MAINE looked one to keep firmly on side when making a successful start over fences at Uttoxeter on his return and can win again. Caeruleum is feared most ahead of Kap Chidley.
