Chepstow Race 4

Noahs Ark Childrens Hospital Charity Handicap Chase

Prize Money: $21,586

Form of a BILLYTHEREALBIGRED (10) chasing debut victory at Bangor took a notable boost when the second and third-placed horses went on to score next-time-out. The handicapper is due to add the Oli and Josh Guerriero trained four-year-old a further 0.5kg in the weights and he can remain unbeaten with fences before that kicks in. RANGE (1) was still travelling within himself when falling at the fifth on his chasing debut at this track last month. Could prove the main danger providing the mishap has not produced any negative effects. TOMMYS CHARM (7) won a maiden hurdle over course and distance last season. Likely well-schooled for this introduction to fences. HEROS DE ROMAY (5) completes the shortlist.

Racing second-up today. First-up after seven months to post a big 14 len win. Bangor-On-Dee 4yo+ STPLE HCP (C4) on October 29 over 4100m slow going defeating Immortal Fame with 70.5kg at $3.30 in a steeplechase. Previously second-up didn't finish the race at Hereford 3yo HDLE HUNT (C4) on October 24 2023 over 3200m. Strips fitter and is again a top chance.
