Day 2 Summary
The best winner being Presenting Percy who absolutely hosed up in the RSA. A brilliant winner for Pat Kelly and Davy Russell at 11/4.
Get on him for the Gold Cup next year now if you’re a fan.
In the feature race the Queen Mother Champion Chase Altior looked in trouble mid-race and turning in and Douvan mid-race looked as if he was flying before he unfortunately hit the deck. Fortunately, both horse and jockey were ok.
Despite looking in trouble Altior provided a gutsy run to beat Min in the end with ease by 7 lengths.
The second coming of Jesus Christ aka Samcro was fairly impressive in the opener. Even more impressive when you consider he lost a shoe during the race!
Auvergnat also placed in the cross country finishing the top of the JP clan in the race. He ran well but just never quite got into the same gears as the front pair towards the finish. Tiger Roll was handy throughout the race and hopefully those who read the guides followed the advice out of the Gordon Elliot yard I picked up at the Middleton Cheney preview night from Tom Messenger.
Acey Milan ran well in the Bumper picking up a place in fourth.
Le Breuil looked to be travelling well in the Coral cup but didn’t find anything turning in off the bridle and looks like a smaller field might suit, I still think he has a big race in him though.
Lisp fell when out the back in the Fred Winter and didn’t ever look likely to feature.
Onto tomorrow and hopefully another day of profit. Tips have just been distributed for every race to subscribers.
