Ladbrokes Pendil Novices' Chase (Grade 2) (GBB Race)

Completed the hat-trick over hurdles when making all in a 3-runner course novice in April and looked a natural when winning a match race on chase bow at Warwick on return. In trouble a long way out over C&D last month but bounced back in no uncertain style when adding to tally at Musselburgh.

Winner of 3 of his 5 hurdles starts following a wind op last term and having undergone another tweak to his breathing, he got back on the up in no uncertain fashion when a ready winner of 2m handicap at Sandown 3 weeks ago. Tongue tie returns back up in trip and the one to beat.

Fairly useful novice hurdler and already a better chaser, leaving chase bow/return well behind when winning at Newbury in December, impressing in all respects and value for extra over the result. Reported to have bled following a fall over C&D since but remains open to progress all the same.

Irish point winner who was successful twice over hurdles last season and she cemented an excellent start to her chase career when landing 6-runner listed event against her own sex at Huntingdon a fortnight ago. Limit not yet reached.
