Kelso Race 5 - Komatsu Forest Novices' Handicap Chase

DEFYING GRAVITY (5) would have made a successful chase debut at Perth last time (4800m) were it not for a bad last-fence mistake. William Maggs keeps the ride. Given a chance to atone. PLAY BY THE RULES (6) is yet to score in eight fences outings. Brought down last time and still early days racing for his current in-form yard. Leading contender. KILLYBEGS JET LADY (4) holds ability though often finds one too good. Second beaten 4.75L in a Hexham chase three weeks ago and cannot be dismissed. LADIES WELL (3) was a hurdle winner in Ireland last August. Shown little otherwise. Could be of some interest on reappearance.
