Will Divy get back to good form over hurdles?
"Squadron has run consistently well in three attempts over fences, especially last time out at Taunton behind two progressive types. This race looks an easier contest in which to get his head in front and the market suggests it could well be his day."
Today's movers come from the meetings at Taunton and Huntingdon.
We start at Huntingdon in the 13:40 Handicap Hurdle over three miles and two furlongs where the George Baker-trained Divy is now trading at [7.2] from [19.50]. He was a smart bumper horse when winning twice and started off well over hurdles but has since lost his way which is why this market support is of interest. He has been given a break since his last run and is also down 5lbs from then, and runs against lower class opposition today. These factors seem to have alerted some people that a good run is expected.
We stay at Huntingdon and Squadron has been receiving some good support into [5.2] from [7.4] in the 14:40 Handicap Chase over 3m. Alan King's charge is having his fourth race over the larger obstacles having proved himself a very useful hurdler in his day. He has run consistently well in three attempts over fences, especially last time out at Taunton behind two progressive types. This race looks an easier contest in which to get his head in front and the market suggests it could well be his day.
Finally we go to Taunton for the day's negative. Lord Singer has been on the drift this morning from [3.50] out to ]4.70] in the 16:30 Handicap Chase over 2m. Gary Moore's horse won last time out but has been raised seven pounds for it, while in his two runs previous to that win he failed to finish and also fell. The penalty along with his inconsistency and tendency to jump left seems to have given punters plenty of reason to look elsewhere in this race for the winner.
Recommended Bets:
Back Divy @ [7.2] Huntingdon 13:40
