Verdict
CHASERS CHANCE has finally got his act together and already has a C&D win to his name this term. Paul Henderson's Irish import may still be on the right side of the handicapper and is fancied to complete the hat-trick. Henry San has been placed at Bangor and Chepstow since being handed a race at Stratford and shouldn't be far away again while Knapp Bridge Boy easily beat Roll The Dice at Exeter though, like Ludlow score Sum Laff, has more on his plate here. Fairy Rath and Sentimentaljourney probably need to improve again to land this but can't be left out of the reckoning.
