Doncaster Race 5 - Virgin Bet Novices' Handicap Hurdle

CAPTAIN COOL (4) cannot be faulted for his consistency. Was again thereabouts when beaten 5L into fourth last start and providing second outing after a short break is entitled to now strip fitter. Bound to be on the scene. CHEVINGTON (3) returned from a mighty absence with a good second in a big field over Christmas. Must back that up however holds potential for improvement after only five hurdle starts. THE RESDEV TYKE (2) bids for a hat-trick. Certainly respected though continues climbing in the weights now. TILEHURST (1) arrives after a six month absence. Yet to miss the placings in three hurdle starts. Possibilities. Something for the Multiples: NEW INVENTION (8)

Freshened for 43 days. Last run finished seventh of 8 starters at Market Rasen on January 16 over 3700m, 44 len behind Hold The Serve carrying 72kg at $126. The run before finished 11th of 13 runners at Newbury on December 17 over 3270m, 59 len behind Kadastral carrying 71.5kg at $126. Gets a chance to win. Right in the mix if anywhere near his best.
