RSA Chase
- 2.10pm
- Run over fences
- Novice chasers i.e. new chasers who didn’t win a chase in the previous year.
- Run over 3 miles so stamina is essential for these younger horses
This promises to be an absolute cracker of a race. More of That is seen as the classy horse in the race and with a previous win in the World Hurdle it’s hard to argue against that. He then started his career over fences with two impressive wins but he hasn’t been seen since mid December.
Excuses have been made (including ground concerns) for the lack of a run out since then but I would have major concerns as a result. This race is usually won by a dour stayer and a tough horse (Don Poli, Lord Windermere etc) and I would be concerned that More of That is not that type of horse so the price is too short for me.
I am torn between Blaklion and NO MORE HEROES. Blaklion is a very tempting price at 10/1 in an 8 runner field – he will jump and stay and he has form over this course and distance. I wouldn’t put anyone off backing him but I have to side with No More Heroes. His form in Ireland is very strong and I think he will have the toughness and the class to get this done. I wouldn’t be surprised if Blacklion ran him very close at a nice price though.
Recommendation:
- NO MORE HEROES – 2pts win at 5/2 (Ladbrokes)
