Buddy Holly
12/1
TALK TO THE MAN looked a good prospect when going in at the first time of asking over hurdles at Taunton recently and is fancied to build on that here and continue Paul Nicholls' fine record in this useful novice. Irish challenger The Big Clubman has the form to play a big part though and rates a major threat, with Buddy Holly and Big Bert appealing as the pick of the rest in the battle for minor honours.

Race Hints

Specific Pace Hint: Buddy Holly could be advantaged by a prominent position which looks likely in this field: Of the better-fancied horses, The Big Clubman is most likely to be ridden furthest from the pace.
Individual Price Hint: Laurier Des Obeaux traded at 25% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 3 starts.
