In depth

Verdict

These limited novice handicap chases are difficult to get a handle on with hurdle ratings used to assess newcomers to fencing. Master Debonair was a classy novice hurdler but has showed little since and connections will hope the combination of a move to the Fry yard and fences generate improvement. The market should reflect his chance. Dock Road is intriguing as he goes chasing after just a couple of runs and a lengthy absence but UP FOR PAROL is preferred. Yet to jump a fence in public, he's fit from his reappearance in the Persian War when a fair third and appears fairly treated. The remainder can all have a case argued for them, with Shakem Up'arry the most interesting.
