’ARRY TO SHINE IN FINAL THIRD

WINNER MACHINE

- BY DANNY HALL

THE Harry Redknappow­ned (right) SHAKEM UP’ARRY had little more than a ‘penalty kick’ on his winning return at Ffos Las.

Last season, though, he ran with credit against some high-class novices like the subsequent Supreme Novices’ winner Shishkin — and a mark of 130 may just under-estimate him in the Betfair Handicap Hurdle (1 (1.50).

WHO DARES WINS is best known for his big Flat-race wins in the No Northumber­land Plate and the Queen Alexandra Stakes, but he has been third in a Coral

Cup and fifth in a Pertemps Final — and the Betfair Exchange Stayers Handicap Hurdle (2.25) has a £45,000 first prize to tempt in-form connection­s.

Tom Symonds had a spell in early-november with four winners from five runners which suggests SONG FOR SOMEONE, his stable star, will be spot-on for his comeback in the Grade 2 Coral Hurdle (2.40) at Ascot.

He was a gutsy winner of the Kingwell Hurdle at Kempton — also Grade 2 — when last seen in February.
