Monday Double...

Newton Abbot 15:50 - Kaldouas
3m 2f, Class 3 Handicap Chase, Good

A winner last time out over two and a half miles and under the champ, we pick Mr. Nicholls' runner to do the job this afternoon. The black gelding has yet to prove he stays this distance but you could only be impressed by the way he demolished his opposition last time out. He does however carry top weight and there are a couple of elder statesmen in the line up who have proved they do get this trip, but their time must surely have past. Our selection should have the class to prevail. (Early Price 5/2)


Newton Abbot 16:20 - Akram
2m 1f, Class 4 Handicap Hurdle, Good

We're hoping A P McCoy brings home the double today onboard Akram, another last time out winner under the champ! With some very useful flat form to his name a few seasons back, this bay gelding by Night Shift holds outstanding claims in this line up. Last time outs victory would have been a confidence booster as he looks to double up today. (Early Price 11/8)
