After a relatively quiet period at the start of the month there are good races to be found at both Ascot and Haydock Saturday.
At Ascot the feature is the Clarence House G1 Chase with 8 to run and a cast headed by Finian's Rainbow. He has answered all questions so far and is on 7/4 for this. Al Ferof is 11/4, Somersby and Wishful Thinking on 6/1, and we can't resist a little something on Forpaddydeplasterer at 14/1.
Earlier the Warfield Mares Hurdle Gr 2 has 11 runners. Our Girl Salley won well at Leopardstown in December and Kentford Grey Lady won at Kempton. Watch out for Tara Rose - maybe not this time but she's improving.
The Holloway's Hurdle Gr 2 looks a good thing for Royal Charm at 4/7. At the moment there are still 24 in the race but this number may diminish.
At Haydock the Champion Hurdle Trail G2 only has 5 runners and by far the best of these is Celestial Halo.
The Peter Marsh Chase Gr 2 has Bold Ransom on 5/1, Consigliere 6/1 and we may go for Mon Mome 8/1.
