Oneway must defy top weight of 11st 10lb if he is to emerge triumphant in Saturday's Victor Chandler Chase - but handler Mark Rimell is unconcerned by his welter burden.

The 10-year-old has not won for almost two years, but after enduring a troubled campaign last season, he has shown marked signs of a revival and chased home Voy Por Ustedes at Kempton last time.

"I'm not that worried about giving the weight away," Rimell said with regard to the upcoming Ascot test.

"He's got the weight for a reason and that's because he's a good horse.

"He carries weight every day. He's a big strong horse and I'd rather have more weight and less opposition than the other way round."

After a disappointing reappearance at Cheltenham in November, Oneway bounced back to form when third behind Kauto Star in the William Hill - Tingle Creek Chase.
