GET Real looks the answer to a tricky poser at Ascot tomorrow.

Though the sport4cast.com Handicap Chase has a small field, it has a select line-up and appears to be a tough race to call.

But on balance course specialist Get Real must be the selection given hisrecord of four wins from five starts over this track and distance.

He looked right back to form when winning at Punchestown in May and thehandicapper has not gone to town despite that success and kept him on a rating of 153, the handicap mark from which he won at this course last December.

Provided he is allowed to dominate, Get Real will prove an extremely tough opponent to beat.

Noel Chance's hopes of running Ready to Rumble in a maiden hurdle at Down Royal's big meeting were dashed when the fixture had to be put back a week due to the heavy rain.

But the trainer looks to have found an ideal substitute event for his promising young charge in the Michael Hatt Memorial Novices' Hurdle.

Judged on his fine efforts in National Hunt Flat races last season this sturdy gelding looks just the type to do well in staying novice hurdles this winter.

He was an unlucky second to Patriarch at Newbury on his debut before being well held in the Weatherbys Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival. He then returned to his best when a two-and-a-half-length third to Winning Jenny in a valuable event at Fairyhouse in April.

He may have been unlucky to come up against an above-average opponent inKarratha on his hurdling debut at Chepstow last month and can get off the mark here.

Down at Exeter, Behrajan looks a straightforward selection to lift the Tripleprint Novices' Chase.

Henry Daly's strapping five-year-old made a fine impression on his chasing debut at Wetherby and could go to the top of the tree over fences.

With that Wetherby run likely to have brought him on, Behrajan can maintain his unbeaten record over the larger obstacles.
