Todays Sadexo Clarence House Chase a Grade 1 at Ascot looks an intriguing race. Sire De Grugy is the one I like. He has form on heavy going when he won a Novices event at Lingfield 14 months ago on only his third chase start. He has gone on to win 7 of his 10 chases to date, finishing second in two of the others and the only time he was kept out of the frame was when making far too many mistakes in the John Smith's Maghull Novices' Chase at Aintree. He is still prone to making the odd error as when seeing off the reopposing Somersby at Sandown in December, Somersby does go well at this venue but he was beaten fair and square by Sire De Grugy last time out and will need help from the ground if he is to turn the tables here. Hidden Cyclone has a good record over these shorter distances but looks to have a little to find with Sire in my opinion. Sire De Grugy is currently an easy 7/4 shot at several Bookmakers right now and looks the bet to me, he is trading at just 2.5 on Betfair!!
