Exeter 2.05
(Robin) RISK AND ROLL -: A competitive Handicap Chase over 2 miles and 3 furlongs and a few exposed and more than a few unexposed ones in here. This could be a race to follow in terms of form lines, especially as we now are seeing proper winter ground. CREEP DESPOIS may need a confidence boost after being trampled on last time, SIRUH DU LAC is a prominent racer who has enough form in the conditions and over Course to be a huge threat. I just feel its style of running exposes it to something that can hunt it up the hill. Molineaux and Dusky Lark probably need better Going so the main pick is RISK AND ROLL. A horse from France bought along steadily in the classic Paul Nicholls style, only time it encountered this type of Going so far in UK it hammered a decent field and although bare form suggests has a bit to find, the conditions will be the same as for the facile win referred to. Of the remainder I will have a "mention" bet on TOWN PARKS who is decent value and interesting in the conditions. Kerry Lee has been hampered more than anyone by the incredibly dry Autumn, a yard renowned for mud lovers, horse has had a run and string are finally on their grass gallop, so a better run is expected here and should be one to track and follow.
