Wincanton Race 3 - Horatio's Garden Novices' Handicap Chase (Gbb Race)

TOUQUET (1) looks to be in peak form having gained consecutive wins including a good success by 1.5L six weeks ago at Huntingdon. Very little between these runners on the ratings however he is the pick on form. HAAS BOY (3) made a pleasing start representing Chester Williams only to disappoint when last seen. Can be given close consideration as better than that effort and more is expected. A GREAT EXCUSE (4) was well held last time out at Catterick. Needs to take form to a new level if being competitive against this field. SAGE GREEN (2) is quickly turned out having finished fourth two weeks ago. Cannot be dismissed.

Racing well. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Last start won by 1.5 len Huntingdon on January 22 over 3300m slow going defeating Kahavari carrying 73kg at $4.30 in a steeplechase. The start before that; won by 2.75 len Huntingdon on December 22 over 3300m defeating Grain Trade with 75.5kg at $5 in a steeplechase. Promising galloper. It would be brave to go against him.

Useful gelding. Last start made ground from midfield; finished fourth of 12 runners at Warwick on February 20 over 3200m, slow track; 4 len behind Kenzoko with 72.5kg at $4.50. Before that finished second of 10 runners at Kempton Park on February 2 over 3200m, 12 len behind Gooloogong carrying 71kg at $15. Definite winning chance. Must be a chance.

Start before finished second of 12 starters at this track on December 26 over 3000m, 0.8 len behind Queenie St Clair with 76.5kg at $5. Hard to have on recent efforts.
