RIMINI looks to have every chance here having gone close when third at Fontwell a week ago. This lower grade race is much less competitive and David Rees' charge has won off a higher mark over fences. Water Garden has been well beaten in novice events so far but it would be no surprise to see a big improvement now handicapping, while Hector's House showed a bit more at Chepstow last time and could figure. Waldsee made the frame on quick ground at Worcester back in June and Hurricane Electric has a second at Fontwell early in the year to his credit but both look worth opposing today.
