13:40 Fontwell Although seven look set to go to post it’s fair enough to say that it looks a two horse race. Solighoster and Bolving set the standard and it’s hard to look anywhere else. Of the two I have to go with the Noel Fehily ridden contender who looks marginally more consistent than his market rival. Of the rest of the pack both Versifer and Jeds Gamble could out run their large odds but sadly with only places for the first two home I think it’ll be difficult to separate the leading market duo. SOLIGHOSTER (WIN) – NAP
15:10 Fontwell Sticking with Fontwell and it’s interesting to note Champion Jockey Richard Johnson doesn’t have many rides today but comes to the meeting to ride the Phillip Hobbs trained St Saviour. When headgear was applied on his penultimate start he did well so I’m hoping the application of blinkers will bring about improvement. Not the most consistent runner but 8/1 looks quite a generous price we should get stuck into. Noel Fehily is a jockey that I’m a huge fan of and the fact he rides the favourite can’t be ignored. He looks to be on the most likely winner and I couldn’t put you off backing him I just hope we’ve found a decent rival at a much better price. ST SAVIOUR (E/W)
