Goose Chase could be the answer to our second race with Aviation, Donya One and Courageously all holding formbook claims. Invariably well backed, Goose Chase hasnt quite shown all the ability that his backers had quite hoped for but today's track and perhaps more pertinently, today's trip should be right up his street. The handicapper has not sought to be mischievous after his most recent start. Aviation represents the yard who won this last year with a 40/1 outsider. He ran as if this extra furlong should not go amiss when finishing second at Brighton to Saxon Lil. Donya One takes a first bow into handicap company. The way she stayed on in a six furlong Lingfield race suggested a mile would be up her street and now it is a case as to whether Luca Cumani or the handicapper will come out on top. Courgeously has a solid formbook claim on a run over course-and-distance in May. He is proving hard to win with and will doubtless finish close up again. Wujood's better form is on soft while the visor is tried on the once-promising Look At The Stars.Topiary Ted is watched in the market for clues. However, his second in a Newmarket maiden is beginning to increasingly look like a fluke performance. Bamzooki finished close up to Royal York hero Enforcer last term. She did not show too much on a seasonal appearance but is another now eligible for handicaps. A trappy affair with many questions posed by the newcomers. Goose Chase can account for earlier losses accrued.
