Market Rasen Race 4 - Chris Coley Bem Celebration Handicap Chase (Gbb Race)
A DEFINITE GETAWAY (4) bids for a hat-trick following a victory by a neck over 5000m at Hereford. Leading contender. CAN'T BEAT HISTORY (5) seeks a four-timer on the back of a comfortable 8L win in a 5000m Warwick hurdle. Dangerous switching to fences. CHOOSETHENEWS (1) could prove capable of improvement in view of a 15L fourth tackling 4000m at Newcastle. GIOVANNI CHANGE (6) rates each-way.

Impressive in recent runs. Last outing won by a head this track on April 20 over 4790m defeating Morfee carrying 70.5kg at $3.50 in a steeplechase. The start before that; finished second in a small field at Wetherby on March 28 over 4800m, a neck behind Mixedwave with 72.5kg at $6. Definite winning chance. Hard to fault on his recent form.
