1834 Novices' Handicap Chase (GBB Race)
2m 6f 108y
Going: Good
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneCLEMENCIA gets the nod following a decisive victory at Huntingdon over 2m4f. The step up to an extended 2m6f shouldn't be too daunting for the six-year-old, given he won by five lengths on his last outing, but his last success does find him 6lb higher in the handicap. Found On has been given a 5lb rise for his recent victory at Market Rasen, where he floored competition and won by 21 lengths. The going on that occasion was good to soft, so he may prefer the ground a little softer than this but still looks the biggest threat to the selection. Shetland Bus will need to find extra to get on terms.
