OPTIMISED has looked a horse on the up in point-to-points in recent starts and he is taken to register a first hunter chase victory in this small field contest. Garde Ville was a winner at this venue two weeks ago and he can claim second ahead of Unioniste who should appreciate the return to hunter chases.
