Jump Racing ~ Wednesday 2nd November

[Falbrav]

SALBERTO 1.15 Chepstow. 0.5 points each way. Debutant and so hard to know what to expect, but bred to go on this heavy ground (Alberto Giacometti (IRE) — Ipsala (FR) (Quart De Vin (FR )) and is expected to make up into a useful horse. Been doing fine enough at home and so with the ground being a question to answer for most, and us being massive odds on the exchange (110+ available), I think we're worth a nibble. 66/1 Stan James.

Re: Jump Racing ~ Wednesday 2nd November 1.50 Chepstow - 1.5pts e/w Capdalight @ 10/1 (Bet365) - 1/4 odds Richard Johnson is an eyecatching jockey booking for this horse, and I feel 10/1 represents excellent each-way value for a horse who has shown plenty of promise in his hurdling runs to date. He has thrived since Paul Henderson took control of him, finishing 2nd, 4th, 1st and 4th in 4 runs during the summer for his new yard. He did have excuses for his defeats - finishing 2nd to a well handicapped horse, too keen over 3f further than today's trip, and being hampered/trip being a little bit too short last time out. His win came impressively over today's trip at Ffos Las by 8l. He's got some of the most solid form in the field, and so long as he settles fairly well, is fit after a little break, and handles the ground, has a huge chance.
