A compact novices limited handicap chase to round off the Saturday Newbury action, with all four of the runners having plenty of positive attributes on their CV's. However, we will focus upon the selection
SOLIGHOSTER. He has proved himself to be a real mud-lark in winning a bumper (Newcastle), a pair of novice hurdles (Fontwell and Towcester), and a 3m novices chase (Ffos Las). Although well beaten at Market Rasen latest; he probably paid the price for throwing it down to the winner Barney Dwan, but he jumps exceptionally well and that's more than can be said of the error prone
Rocklander. With conditions expected to be truly attritional by this stage of the afternoon, Solighoster is a most confident selection to make it 2 from 3 over fences.
