Venetia Williams trains Newsboy's nap, Heros, at Plumpton on Monday

HEROS is expected to take his tally over fences to 2-2 with a win in the BetGoodwin Supports UK Racing Novices’ Handicap Chase (1.15) at Plumpton on Monday.

A two-time winner when trained in France, the six-year-old failed to find the target in seven attempts over hurdles for Venetia Williams last season.

But my selection dropped a stone in the weights as a result, and took advantage when making his debut over the larger obstacles at Taunton 18 days ago.

Sent off the 5-2 favourite in a field of eight, Charlie Deutsch’s mount jumped soundly en route to a two-and-three-quarter-length margin from Non Stop.

The British Horseracing Authority handicapper has reacted with a 6lb rise in the weights but that may not be enough to stop Heros, still 8lb shy of his peak rating and with plenty more to come in this sphere, from going in again.

Plumpton specialist I SEE YOU WELL gets the vote to rack up a seventh success at the East Sussex course by landing the BetGoodwin Handicap Chase (2.15).

Seamus Mullins’ stable favourite came home well beaten at Ascot last time but is better judged on his course-and-distance second to Blade Runner the time before and a reproduction of that run would make the 10-year-old hard to beat.
