Ascot Race 2

Copybet Novices' Limited Handicap Chase (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $36,254

RARE EDITION (2) Romped home to win last start in a chase at Uttoxeter. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. RISKINTHEGROUND (3) Pushed past some when 5th last run in a chase at Wincanton but will be down in distance. Tracking very well this preparation. Should be in the finish. GIDLEIGH PARK (1) First up after 36 weeks and was a comprehensive winner by just short of 8L first up last preparation in a hurdle at Exeter. Top record so far. Not out of this. BAD (4) Looked good when 2nd last start in a chase at Ascot. Should muster plenty of early speed. Could find a place.
