Verdict

WISENFURST improved on his seasonal debut to score well last time and with a little more progression should follow up in this Novice Handicap Chase ahead of Rudinero and Hoof It Harry. The pick's well held second behind Lord Gunnerslake on his return now looks a lot better with his conqueror going on to score twice since and as he wasn't stopping when getting on top last time so his mark rise looks a fair one. Rudinero has 16 lengths to find on the pick after their last meeting but this step up in trip might help him be closer along with the weight swing in his favour. Hoof It Harry has a couple of pounds removed for his placed effort last time and Richard Johnson looks an interesting booking while Great Ocean Road ran a solid race on his handicap debut and can kick on under the same mark. This looks competitive but Wisenfurst seems to be improving and can follow up.
