Verdict
The four-year-old Aviles was due to run in the 1.00 at Fontwell yesterday. NO RISK WITH LOU, a winner between the flags and over hurdles, made all and stayed on strongly to make a successful chasing debut at Huntingdon and an 8lb rise looks manageable. Red Windsor made the early running but was soon beaten on his chasing bow at Fontwell but winning bumper and hurdler Gitche Gumee goes well fresh so the lack of a run won't be a problem for his debut over fences. Kotmask did well over timber and will be better for last month's chasing debut at Kempton while Bonarc has won off a higher mark over hurdles in Ireland.
