THERE is some cracking action over the jumps on Friday.
It was a tough choice for ‘Race of the Day’ but we’ve had good look at the Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase (2.15) at Exeter and picked out a best bet.
There is plenty of chasing potential on show in the opener on Devon National day.
Springfield Fox won easily in the mud on his handicap debut at Chepstow last month.
The handicapper has stepped in, but a 10lb rise could be within reach for this lightly-race seven-year-old.
If first-time blinkers spark Know The Score back to life he wouldn’t be out of this.
Similar comments apply to Midnight Tune who is fitted with cheekpieces after her Haydock flop. She had previously been progressive.
But OVER TO SAM looked a stayer to follow at Plumpton last time.
He is very lightly-raced for his age, with injury limiting him to just five career starts so far.
He gave weight and a beating to some smart rivals on his return from a long lay-off at the Sussex track, keeping on dourly.
This stiff track will suit, testing ground is fine and he is likely a good deal better than his current mark.
