THE ADVISOR - Hereford 2.20 Handicap Chase - Class 4 - 3miles 1 furlong - 11 run - Good to Soft

 

Kraqueline was an impressive winner for the in-form Kerry Lee team last week but a step up in trip and 7lbs penalty and somewhat deeper opposition just put me off at the price. Sciroccos Dream and Lazy Sunday should both be winning races this season but may well need this seasonal debut run on past evidence. Porter in The Park is an interesting and improving type for Emma Lavelle and one I have just added to the TRACKER, I think the yard has a better option today but PitP is one to follow.  I think Aimee Se Sivola is more a spring horse and will need the run and the same logic after a close look at the past form suggests that Head And Heart may also need this.

 

SADIE HILL is in the TRACKER and the early price is very appealing. It's got a P2P background, needed seasonal debut run and will improve for it and won second time out last season, a mark of 88 makes it worth a small shrapnel bet if you want that option.

 

My clear top 2 rated though are HARRYS HOTTIE who ran an eye catching Chase debut last time, one crucial error meant a win was out of the question but the way the horse recovered and finished well was very illuminating. With a clear round it can go very close. DO YOU THINK is a Course and Distance winner, won this race in 2022 off a mark of 97, runs off 102 here with a good 7lbs Claimer and this lightly raced type is normally best fresh and can make a bold follow up bid.
