With the meeting at Ayr tomorrow abandoned the only remaining jumps fixture is at Plumpton.
There is an interesting novice chase at 1.35. Francoek and Numide were both decent hurdlers but as yet have not shown the aptitude for fences that their connections light have hoped for. Either could come good here and of course the Paul Nicholls runner Mahonia has to be respected but in search of some value my selection is Shoreacres. A winner of a bumper at Plumpton he was 7th in the Supreme Novices Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and his stable is in good form.
When AP McCoy rides for trainer Charlie Egerton it is usually worth noting and tomorrow McCoy is on recent Ludlow winner Abbeviallian in the 2.05.
