Port Isaac, beaten at odds-on on his debut, was also dropping back in trip. He again showed a tendency to drift when coming under pressure.
Actually, Port Isaac started at 9-1 on his debut! |

A modest bunch in modest form with the glaring exception being TITIAN BOY, who would have won easier here last time but for a mad mid-race blunder and he can complete a hat-trick. Duhallowcountry is hard to trust but has it in him to threaten.[Alistair Whitehouse-Jones]

An interesting novice chase in which useful recruits Zamdy Man and Westren Warrior have the form to go very well but there are doubts about both on account of this trip while the latter would also be ideally served by slower ground.
The chase that Westren Warrior ran it at Kelso clearly doesn't count. |

NO FURTHER rain is wanted at Chepstow, with an inspection called at 8am on Thursday for Friday's meeting.
The track is waterlogged in places, and clerk of the course Keith Ottesen said: "We've had 47mm since last Friday. We could do with no further rain, it is due to be clear for part of today, but then more rain is forecast for early on Thursday morning, bringing another ten to 12mm, hence the inspection. "That rain then clears through but another front with blustery showers is due Thursday night, and then from mid-morning Friday more rain is forecast. "We could do without any rain but that's very unlikely. If we have a dry day and night then we can take stock." Officials at Wincanton have not called an inspection for Friday's card but are monitoring the situation, with the going heavy, soft in places and more rain forecast. All very helpful except that Wincanton's meeting is Thursday not Friday. |

ELIDOR just did enough to edge out old rival Wall Of Fire and resume winning ways. His excellent rider was at his best, but being 22lb better off than when beaten 7l on his final outing last year in the Doncaster Cup made the difference. It was his first win out of handicap company and a Cup campaign may be on his agenda now.
How the heck can you confuse the Doncaster Cup with the Mallard handicap? |

MARSH PRIDE Comment..."Chased leaders, ridden along well over 2f out, soon driven and weakened" Analysis...."hit a flat spot 3f out before doing some encouraging late work" At least one of them got it right. |

Mr J J O'Neill - there are clearly two jockeys of this name with one riding in Ireland and one the U.K. The RP stats have morphed these two individuals into one.

To be fair most of the jockeys riding for J J O'Neil can have such contrasting attitudes to their rides that it's not difficult to think that it's actually two different riders. |

Yesterday's seller at Worcester.
Race analysis says no bids for winner; Talk of the Tracks refers to the winner going to the Sheila Lewis yard. Having attended and witnessed the auction I can definitely confirm that there was bidding. Went for 4,400 gns from memory. How can such a simple, factual, matter be misreported? |

In the Truckers Tangle form, the point jockey in the formbook is listed as one 'S Baragry'.
I'd bet long odds on that's a typo for Bargary. |

Not this time. He's Shane Baragry, son of owner/trainer/breeder/ex-amateur-jockey Jerry.
