Verdict

As you would expect in a veterans’ chase there are a few of these who have seen better days although the handicapper is now giving them a chance. Loose Chips would certainly fit into that category but he’s going to have to bounce back from some poor starts to get involved. Bob Ford has his quirks but has run consistently of late and the same label of being less than straightforward could be applied to Water Wagtail. The booking of Jonjo O’Neill Jnr catches the eye for Uhlan Bute but he’ll have to show more spark. Troubled Soul deserves to win a race but the handicapper appears to have her in his grip so HIGH COUNSEL is taken to follow up his Hereford win off 6lb higher.
  1. High Counsel
  2. Troubled Soul
  3. Bob Ford
