DOCTOR’S ORDERS
DOCTOR KEN (3.15) is the prescription in the TrollopeBellew Memorial Handicap Chase at Taunton.
Olly Murphy’s gelding stayed upwardly mobile over fences when second to Gold Cup Bailly at Ayr. The sevenyear-old was staying-on strongly over 2m 4f so he can defy a welter-burden up in trip.
LIBBERTY HUNTER (3.45) can run riot for Evan Williams in the Jackson-Stops Hurdle.
The gelding improved for the drop to two miles when decisively defeating Crebilly at Chepstow. That was a strong contest so the seven-year-old can take full advantage of a fair opening mark.
MILADYGRACE (4.15) can turn on the charm for Martin Keighley in the Chetwood Chase. The mare remains nicely unexposed over 2m 4f after slamming Imperial Pride at Market Rasen.
COASTGUARD STATION (2.35) can come to our rescue in the RhinoBet Chase at Southwell. Henry Oliver’s horse was unlucky to encounter the talented Haddex Des Obeaux
at Doncaster. The gelding is open to plenty more progress so he can strike down in class for his thriving yard.
FASHIONELLE (3.05) looks a smart recruit for Fergal O’Brien in the bumper. The four-year-old was a cracking second to Taras Halls on debut for Rae Guest at Huntingdon. The youngster learned plenty so she can put that experience to good use.
BERTIE BLUE (3.35) can shade the RhinoBet Handicap Hurdle for Emma Lavelle. The gelding took another step forward when giving Ioupy Collonges most problems at Chepstow.
PADDY’S FANCY (4.05) can claim the novices’ handicap hurdle for Greenall & Guerriero. The four-year-old ran another stormer when third to Malaita over two miles at Carlisle. The filly was doing all her best work late so can extend her yard’s terrific run over 2m 4f.
WALK IN THE STORM
(5:05) can breeze to victory for Ian Williams in the staying hurdle. The six-year-old was an excellent second to Atjima
on her first run over 2m 4f at Ffos Las. The mare was strong at the finish so can take this step up to three miles in her stride.
