2.30 at Fontwell - a class 5 handicap chase

We have Hinton Indiana running off a mark of 96 .......his 3 handicap wins have come off 80, 84 and 91

But looking at the Quotes in the Racing Post I see that after he won a novice hurdle in 2011 Nicky Henderson was quoted as saying that he's a big chasing type who could be a Gold Cup horse in time.

think it's fair to say he's been a disappointment.........moreover all his best form has been on good or good to firm and he's only had one outing in a Point (pulled up) in almost 2 years. And he's the second favourite with all the horses at longer odds being well out of form, it's a very poor race

The favourite is not one to trust having failed to win in 14 attempts under rules but he does drop in class having finished 2nd last time out, finishing well to be beaten under a length in a class 4. He's won on Soft and acts on Heavy

short price favourite but looks a good thing..........

Font 2.30 - Shannan Star - win at 6/5 bog wm hill

3.10 Leopardstown: Hidden Cyclone EW @ 28/1 

The old boy has probably allot to do off top weight but at this price can't go unbacked with 4 placec at 1/4 odds. He is still as good as ever finishing an excellent third in the Fighting Fifth at Newcastle following up on a solid Punchestown success in October. He has performed with credit in these type of big handicaps in the past and in fact his record over 2 miles is pretty impressive. So with a clear round of jumping he should be in the shake-up at least.
