2.45 Bangor preview

Sage Monkey was in the course of running a disappointing race when falling at the last fence at Worcester, and at 9/2 doesn't represent much value to bounce back.
He'd won at Bangor prior to that but appeared to have been caught out by a 5lb rise in the weights last time. Plenty needs to be taken on trust now.
A few of these are making their debuts over fences and the one that I like from these is Champion Chase, who should've strengthened up over the summer and enjoy the chasing game.
BONOBO is the horse that I feel is overpriced at 8/1, however, and this 10-year-old is worth backing to put his experience to use.
He ran in a relatively hot race for the grade three starts back when finishing third to Skilled.
Next time out he was running well and would've been no worse than second in a race that wasn't run to suit when unseating his rider at the second last.
This was followed by a comfortable victory over hurdles at Newton Abbot, which represented a nice confidence booster in an admittedly poor contest.
Today he is back over fences off a mark 104, which I feel is one he can win off, and at the prices he's worth chancing.
Recommended bets
1pt win Bonobo 2.45 Bangor at 8/1
