Newbury Race 4 - Coral John Francome Novices' Chase (Grade 2) (Gbb Race)

Runner-up in the G1 Challow Novices Hurdle last year WENDIGO (6) concluded the season with a good fifth attempting the 4800m G1 Spa Novices Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Returned delivering a promising chase debut second over 4000m at Worcester a month ago where the winner has scored at Listed level since. Top chance. Having gained a G1 placing REGENT'S STROLL (5) won a maiden hurdle at this meeting last year and recorded an excellent 0.5L second in the 4000m G1 Mersey Novices Hurdle at Aintree. Main danger. KINGSTON PRIDE (3) made a winning chase debut scoring by 2.75L a 4000m beginners chase at Perth last month. Makes appeal. Last start Ascot winner NO QUESTIONS ASKED (4) might feature.

Racing second-up today. First-up after seven months finished second of 14 starters at Cheltenham on October 25 over 4000m, 2.25 len behind Zurich with 74.5kg at $8.50. Previously second-up made some head-way from midfield; finished second in a small field at Haydock Park on December 4 over 3100m, on slow going 8 len behind Royal Infantry carrying 73kg at $2.40. Will strip fitter but needs to go up a notch.
