Master Overseer 1.10 @3.50 Betfred Some top yards in this Novices Hurdle and this can go to David Pipe;s horse. This horse won an above average NH Flat race at Fontwell in March over 2m 2 1/2 f on heavy ground in convincing fashion in the hands of AP. Looking at the field Hobbs fields 3 horses which I'm really not enthused about on what they have achieved so far and to be honest the horse Richard Johnson rides you would think is the one the stable fancy most! however if anything I think he may have got on the wrong horse for the stable here as I think Coolock is probably the one who has the better chance in this race and could get some place money at a price. Nicholls horse won a dire Bumper on good to firm in May. a race which all those behind have done nothing to advertise the form since and throw into the fact that this horse has to prove it will like the ground points me to leave this well alone! All the other runners seem to me to be very average and Pipe's horse which is owned by big spending owner Thomas Barr should take this! Should it fail to take to hurdling at it's first attempt then an each way saver on Hobbs Coolock @26.00 Betfred :ok .

Re: Chepstow 28/11/07 Museo 1.45 @2.25 Betfred Short price here for this Irish raider! however it really ought to take this judged on its form. The trainer has only had one forray to these shores this year which resulted in a win for a horse called Third Level Tom at Exeter in May which it won fairly convincingly! Very interesting Irish challenger who signed off last year with a Flat win and shaped well when in first third of field in Naas maiden hurdle last month; prominent for long way when upped in grade latest and disappointing if he cannot go close at this lower level. It will be interesting to see how Merchent Paddy performs in the first as this is also from the same stable. :ok .
