Warwick Race 1 - Watch On Racing Tv Novices' Chase (Gbb Race)

The G2 Novices Hurdle winning DEAFENING SILENCE (2) continued his progressive chase record when 3.25L second tackling a 4800m novices limited handicap chase a month ago at Windsor. Leading player. DESTROYTHEEVIDENCE (1) made a winning chase debut tackling this trip during October at Chepstow prior to a good Newbury runner-up effort two outings ago. Makes for appeal. HILLCREST (3) is a former G2 hurdle winner. Unseated the rider contesting the rescheduled 3800m G2 Towton Novices Chase at Ffos Las. Not discounted.

Recent form hard to fault. Freshened for 35 days. Last outing finished second in a small field at Windsor on January 17 over 4850m, slow track; 3.5 len behind Herakles Westwood with 71kg at $7. The start before that; finished fourth in a small field at Cheltenham on December 13 over 4130m, 40 len behind Jango Baie carrying 71.5kg at $9. Capable of better showing. Recent form suggests a big run is on the cards.
