Windsor Race 2

Fitzdares Royal Windsor Novices' Limited Handicap Chase (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $40,590

VINCENZO (3) finished third attempting a G2 novices hurdle at Chepstow in October. Rates a potentially smart recruit to fences. Can go well from this mark if jumping soundly. HELNWEIN (1) was progressive over hurdles last term. Did little wrong when second at Warwick on recent chasing debut. Leading chance. TEDLEY (2) has won twice from four outings over fences. Goes well for this rider. Lacks the potential of some rivals. Not lightly dismissed. Chasing debutant THE FAMOUS FIVE (4) posted a respectable comeback at Newbury hurdling. Might do better switching to the larger obstacles.

Useful type. Last start finished second of 10 starters at Newbury 4yo+ STPLE HCP (C3) on November 29 over 3300m, 0.8 len behind Kalif Du Berlais carrying 68kg at $13. The run before finished second in a small field at Wincanton 4yo+ STPLE HCP (C3) on November 9 over 4000m, 2.75 len behind Beau Balko with 74kg at $1.80. Looks a key chance on best and expected to go close.
