1.20 Sandown – MADE FOR YOU (1pt win – 100/30 with bet365)
MADE FOR YOU was perhaps in need of the run after a 75-day break when weakening into a 5-1 third of six at Leicester last time, though still fared best of those to come from off the pace. Olly Murphy’s nine-year-old has a solid record in handicap hurdles on right-handed tracks, recording form figures of 11112252123 (5-11) and is taken to go two places better.
5.30 Chelmsford – THE DEFIANT (2pt win – 4/1 Bet365)
THE DEFIANT has a solid record on Polytrack in Class 5 or lower company, recording form figures of 1114217313 (5-10) for a profit of £15.83 to a £1 level stake at SP. I suggested that we might be getting there a race too soon when he was a 16-1 third at Lingfield earlier this month on his return from a 106-day break and he was a comfortable and well backed winner on his sole previous Class 5 course outing.
