    Race Analysis

    BACKMERSACKME (9) rebounded in style from a below par effort two runs back to land the G3 Leopardstown Handicap Chase in impressive fashion tackling 2m5 1/2f on latest appearance. Unexposed tackling staying trips and represents shrewd connections who won this 2024 renewal. NEWTON TORNADO (12) bounced back from a Newbury mishap with a dominant 6L handicap chase success at Doncaster attempting 3m. Commands respect. WADE OUT (1) resumed delivering a solid fourth in the G2 Hampton Novices Chase at Windsor trying 3m1/2f. Advances in journey with cheekpieces applied. Likely to feature. ONE BIG BANG (4) cannot be discounted advancing significantly in distance on the back of a creditable third over an inadequate 2m3f at Doncaster.
