If You Say Run winning at Worcester today (not as pictured) might have been returned at only 4/6 but it signalled the start of the betting season and I went 'all in' (all that was in the Corals account, anyway) to upgrade the ammunition for Wincanton next week.Paul Nicholls aims at the Chepstow meeting (tomorrow and Saturday) to begin serious operations but he was ready for the extra Wincanton meeting this week and it is time to get involved a bit at this auspicious time of year because if he continues with a strike rate like that, they'll all be going off at tight odds and, let's face it, there is no such thing as a cert so cramped prices make it harder and one needs to be picky.
But Silver Forever in the last at Chepstow tomorrow looks like one and is the saver while attempting a treble with The Young Master in the Veterans Chase and Scaramanga in the 4.30.
