Wincanton Race 2

Betmgm Agatha Christie Mares' Novices' Chase (Listed) (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $64,575

BLUEY (1) arrives a two-time chase winner. The seven-year-old is proven on heavy going with a good 4.75L second over 3400m at Exeter preceding a 1L success in a 4000m mares handicap chase at Windsor a month ago. Leading player. QUEENS GAMBLE (5) has experience in this grade providing a distant third in the 3400m Listed Yorton Mares Novices Chase at Bangor-on-Dee prior to a 7L third tackling 4000m at Musselburgh two weeks ago. Makes appeal. KILBARRY SAINT (3) was a smart second in this race last year when competing at Exeter. Drops in standing following a fifth among G2 company at Cork (Ireland) two months ago. Might feature. PRESENTING A QUEEN (4) rates next best.

Recent form hard to fault. Freshened for 29 days. Last start raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 1.0 len Windsor on January 16 over 4000m slow track defeating Largy Force carrying 76kg at $4 in a steeplechase. Before that finished second in a small field at Exeter on December 18 over 3500m, on a wet track; 5 len behind Hollygrove Cha Cha carrying 73.5kg at $2.60. Capable of better showing. In form and will take some stopping.

Last run tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 0.8 len Ffos Las on January 30 over 4800m in the wet defeating Astronomic View carrying 74kg at $6.50 in a steeplechase. Start before made ground from midfield; finished sixth of 9 runners at Windsor on January 16 over 4000m, slow track; 14 len behind Bluey carrying 65kg at $23. Needs to do more. Not sure the good recent form will stack up this time.
