Ascot
1.15 O’Faolain’s Boy looks the type to make a chaser.
1.50 Grey Gold and Pendra are the two I like in this.
3.35 Rolling Star, Chatterbox, Irish Saint, Pine Creek, Dell’ Arca and Swing Bowler form my short list. Rolling Star acts on nsoft ground and comes here on the back of a win. Chatterbox was runner up at Newbury last time out and may well improve for that run. Irish Saint was a faller in that Newbury race. He is a chaser in the making and may need a bit further than this. P9ne Creek is a course and distance winner and was 6th at Cheltenham on his last start. Dell’ Arca was most impressive when winning at Cheltenham on his British debut last month. The mare Swing Bowler was 3rd in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury last season and makes her seasonal debut here. This is an open race with Dell’ Arca and Chatterbox my preferences.
