NAP – Best selection of the evening

THE NAP (BEST BET) RUNS AT CHEPSTOW ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON!

Chepstow 4.25 Soaring Glory (1/1)

Smart type who made a very promising start in bumpers last year, winning his first two and beating a good horse in Kid Commando at Ascot before chasing home Israel Champ in a Listed contest on final start; exciting hurdling prospect.

I’m really looking forward to the racing from Chepstow on Friday and our best bet goes in the Novice Hurdle in the shape of SOARING GLORY for Jonjo O’Neill. This 5yo has looked potentially useful in bumpers and is open to considerable improvement now going hurdling. His second to Israel Champ shows he’s got a big engine and if he translates that over obstacles he should make a winning start. Bravemansgame cost £370,000 after winning his sole point and actually finished third to the selection at Ascot before failing to back that up in sixth behind him again next time. He retains potential now hurdling and looks the logical choice to chase the favourite home.

Chepstow 4.25 Soaring Glory (1/1)

NB – Second best selection of the day

THE NEXT BEST (SECOND BEST BET) WON AGAIN YESTERDAY AND IS NOW CHASING A FIVE-TIMER!

Kempton 5.40 Dandys Derriere (5/4)

Lightly raced sort who looked potentially useful when winning impressively at Wolverhampton on just his second start; improved to chase home New Mandate at Sandown and while he wasn’t great last time this is much easier.

The NB won again yesterday so we are now chasing a FIVE-TIMER on Friday. It’s becoming the new NAP! We head to Kempton and DANDYS DERRIERE is expected to prove hard to beat for Brian Meehan and Martin Dwyer. He sets the standard here and with the promise of more to come in a first-time tongue-strap he should have too much for them here. Thapa Vc was sent off at 100/1 on debut but ran well in fifth and can improve. Looks one of the dangers to the selection. Kartvelian also showed ability on debut and can do better so should be fighting it out in behind the favourite for a place. Sepoy gelding Ronan Accuser is probably the most interesting newcomer so keep an eye on the market.

NEXT BEST

Kempton 5.40 Dandys Derriere (5/4)
