Exciting times ahead for all National Hunt enthusiasts with this two day Chepstow fixture signalling a resumption of the traditional autumn/winter fun and games. The majority of the leading yards are represented in the opener with Nicholls, Hobbs, O'Neill, Tizzard and Skelton amongst those with potentially useful hurdles prospects. The Skelton trained Captain Simon is unbeaten under rules after landing a Taunton bumper in April, but that form has yet to be really put to the test, whilst the deubtant Vango De Vaige might be the type to do better with a run or two under his belt. DYNAMITE DOLLARS was disappointing on his final start in a bumper, but his earlier form reads well (most notably at Cheltenham), and whilst perhaps not the best long term prospect in this race, it is surely significant that he is the pick of various entries from Ditcheat.
