1.30 Concept Colours Noel Byrne Memorial Rated Novice Chase 2m 180yd

Pure Steel looks to have plenty in his favour as he seeks a second course success. Over a trip close to this, and in testing conditions, he was a taking winner of a similar race here in November when readily seeing off Coral River. The six-year-old drops back in trip after failing to figure behind Kappa Jy Pyke and subsequent scorer Jacob’s Ladder in a Grade 3 novice chase here a month ago.
