Apologies first for the delay in todays tips... technical problems i'm affraid!!
Anyway, we are here now and all set for a bumper Saturday. Great to see Doncaster the go ahead with lots of Cheltenham clues are on offer there today.
Doncaster 15:00 - Saintstaire
2m, Class 2 Handicap Chase - Good
Paul Nicholls charge Saintstaire, followed up a win at Newbury with a gallant 2nd behind O'Toole over fences at Cheltenham last time. That performance was even more impressive given that he was conceeding 21lb to the winner and beat Maljimar (back in 4th) who has since come out and won so impressively. The more than capable Liam Heard takes off a handy 3.
UP 9/2
Hampered when all ready beaten 2 out meant there was no way back for Saintsaire today. Slow jumps at most of the obstacles meant this just wasnt a going day for Paul Nicholls charge.
Sandown 15:10 - Hobbs Hill
2m 4f, Class 1 Novices' Chase - Soft, Good to Soft In the Back Straight
Backing Charlie Egerton's imposing Bay Gelding at odds against is just to good an offer to turn down. Impressive on every outing this year, this 9 year old is going from strength to strength. Today's trip and ground will be ideal and the selection is taken to get the better of Paul Nicholls high class Silverburn.
