The Grand Sefton Chase moves to a November slot and is now the first race of the jumps season over Aintree’s famous Grand National fences. More attention is now on the 2m 5f handicap and a field of 14 horses, whose connections have big ambitions. The race takes place on Saturday, 6 November (2:15).

All of the last eight winners were race-fit. Six of the last seven successful horses had been on the Grand National course before. There is also an age profile for the Grand Sefton Handicap Chase to bear in mind. Only two horses younger than eight have ever won the contest. Five of the last ten victor...
The Grade 2 Elite Hurdle over an extended 1m 7f is the feature race at Wincanton on Saturday, 6 November (3:35).

Paul Nicholls has a record seven wins in the race but none after 2015. This used to be a handicap but the cream usually rises to the top in the Elite Hurdle. Six of the last eight winners had an official rating of 149 or higher. Daryl Jacob has been the jockey to follow with five victories in the last decad...
