The uphill finish will only help Stay Away Fay (2.25) because stay is exactly what he does and he's becoming a favourite horse that I'll be glad to see and see win again.
The other big race is the classy novice hurdle where Mr. Henderson's Southoftheborder (1.50) is thought highly of and will set out to justify that against Insurrection who dotted up for Mr. Nicholls first time over hurdles but I'd be getting no price at all about this double if they didn't have anything to beat. Those two would do me fine.
Elsewhere, Gary Moore sends his better prospects to Sandown and maybe Hudson de Grugy (1.15) can get the trebles and 4-timer off to a good start at 5/1. In the last, if everything else has gone in, Immortal (3.35) is due for Mr. Henderson by now although he does have to deny West End Boy, of which I am part owner - a very, very small part as part of the Coral Racing Club, who goes for a hat-trick and Nicholls, Moore, Skelton and Tizzard which makes it a much more competitive event than 6/4 fav would suggest it is. I only hope the short price is for good reasons.
So, let's hope the ground passes its examination.
