Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Monday; Landofhopeandglory in the Roscommon 19:50. Compare odds and bet.
Roscommon stages a cracking novice chase for the time of year this evening, in which Townshend sets the standard.
Quite whether he can concede a massive 23lbs to smart juvenile hurdler LANDOFHOPEANDGLORY (7:50) is another matter and preference is for the latter.
A high-class Flat performer, he wouldn’t be an obvious chaser on breeding, but he possesses plenty of size and the weight allowance makes him extremely appealing. If he jumps soundly, he ought to be tough to beat on today’s terms.
Peregrine Run, who regular readers might remember I was keen on ahead of the Coral Cup in March, could be the best long term prospect in the field, but he will come into his own over further and on quicker ground.
Monday’s selection:
7:50 Roscommon – Landofhopeandglory; 7/4 Skybet
