Paul Ferguson has two selections from Chepstow for us on Tuesday; Alfie Spinner in the 3.40 and Barney Cool at 5.40 Compare odds.
A really interesting card at Chepstow on Tuesday, where Paul Nicholls saddles a couple of interesting runners in both divisions of the novice hurdle for Graham Wylie and J P McManus also has a couple of interesting handicappers lining up in the shape of Well Hello There, who won last week, and chasing debutant Fishoutofwater.
The 3m novice chase is a cracking contest, too, and Alfie Spinner (3:40) may be up to landing the prize for Nick Williams, who is set to saddle Diamond Harry in Saturday’s Charlie Hall Chase at Wetherby.
A useful handicap hurdler, the six-year-old has always looked a chaser and could improve now he goes over the larger obstacles.
David Pipe’s Barney Cool (5:40) looked a useful prospect when winning at Fontwell in May and could be up to defying a penalty in the bumper under Tom Scudamore.
The four-year-old, who should appreciate the more galloping track and the longer trip, looked rather green on debut and can be expected to be more streetwise this time around.
Tuesday’s selections:
3:40 Chepstow Alfie Spinner
5:40 Chepstow Barney Cool
