Chelt 2.45 - Rock The World - win at 5/2 bog wm hill

2 mile novice chase

Only 4 runners here but it's a tricky little race to get a grip on

Qewy makes his fencing debut and was probably the best of these over hurdles, finishing 5th in the Supreme and 3rd in an Aintree grade 2 last year after winning a classy novice race at Newbury. His yard are in tremendous form. But he is flat bred and that's usually a worry when horses go chasing. He's also only won on soft ground to date. I suspect he might go off favourite but he looks a bit chancy as to whether he'll be as good over fences.

Sizing Codelco is the outsider of the party. He won a Beginners event at odds on in Ireland last time by 8L but had the fortune of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th favourites all falling. These 'Sizing' horses are usually pretty good but he looks like the worst of these

Paul Nicholl's Dormello Mo has been running through the summer with 6 outings at Newton Abbot. On official figures he's the best in at todays weights and has shown some smart form. But can't help but that summer form at NA is probably not that great in the scheme of things and he has been beaten twice and UR once so it's not as though he was unbeatable even at NA.

That leaves my selection. He's already won a grade 3 over in Ireland and the horse he beat has won 3 grade races since. Found 20F on soft ground too much last time and the return to a shorter trip on good ground should suit
