fintron Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 3.50 Exeter Royal Hilarity is 15 lbs higher than when winning at Folkestone in January but when raised in class and upped in the weights he struggled last time out off this mark. However, he is back down in grade here and looked to be improving prior to that run so a win may not be beyond him with only 9 chase starts to his name. Laudamus won a handicap hurdle at the course four years ago when taking full advantage of Timmy Murphy unseating at the last. He confirmed that he acts around here over the chase course too though, and battled gamely when going down by only a short head to Rosie All Over in December off a 5 lb lower mark. He hasn't won over fences yet but has several placed efforts to suggest he has ability and the only negative about him really is that he pulled up when last seen. He is turned out again fairly quickly, which may suggest nothing serious is wrong, and with some solid course form I'll back him, but will have the Peter Bowen runner too for added insurance. 65 % stake Laudamus 9/1 Blue Sq 35 % stake Royal Hilarity 15/2 Paddy's.
