Chepstow Race 2 - Free Tips On Attheraces.com Mdn Hurdle (Gbb Race)
Plenty of potential amongst this line-up. NEW RULES (7) starts out for the Paul Nicholls team after winning his sole attempt in points by an impressive 6L last November (4800m). Every possibility he could be smart. RED ACRES MAX (10) made an encouraging opening in national hunt flat races scoring at the second start against a small field at Carlisle (3400m) in March. Keep a close eye on him. COOL CUSTOMER (2) brings vital track experience taking a jumpers flat here by 1.75L providing latest appearance in March (3200m). Key contender. PITCH AND TOSS (9) represents the Skelton yard. Touch underwhelming on debut in February (3200m). Better expected now.

Facing the starter for the third time today. At debut, ran on from midfield; finished fourth of 9 runners at Worcester on September 4 over 3200m, 18 len behind Dark Tide Rising with 67.5kg at $9. Second-up raced on the speed and boxed on steadily finished fourth of 8 starters at Stratford-On-Avon on October 5 over 3200m, 7 len behind Gypsy Sky with 68kg at $12. Might find this a bit tough.
