8.20 Stratford 3m4f chase

Interesting race brings some decent pointers into play - Horsham lad is a very good favourite based on its only run over park fences that was on soft ground and only 3m--
O'brien has another in the race in the shape of Bradley who only got going late at Cheltenham and this track will help it over the extra distance - If the race was at Cheltenham I would def side with this one of the two he jumped the fences well for a hunter

Glacial Call was in tremendous form at Exeter where she booted away from them and looks an out and out stayer, any money will be significant from this yard they dont punt often but
.
The joker in the pack tonight is definitely Hemington from the Scudamore yard -ran in this last year making enough of a stumble at the last to halt its momentum - stays forever and loves the ground - finished an honourable third that day behind Dennis the legend and Bob Bites back 7l clear of the 4th.
Interest to me was it was punted last run at Plumpton where he was quite well supported and had run a decent trial for this race finishing 4th on the 15th of march.
he comes with a health warning as he misses them out but am assured this is the race they have targeted for him. Currently you can get 26/1 betfair and he was as high as 50 and is steadily being taken.
Last year the favourite fell so the form a bit misleading with all three in the frame at double figures.
My selection is Hemington each way soon as he will end up around the 14/1 mark if he's on song

Good Luck - Bob
