Chepstow Race 4 - Lsl Racing 'National Hunt' Mdn Hurdle (Gbb Race) (Div 2)
A SIGHT TO SEA (1) looked one to follow winning by 6L a point last November. Absent since and now joins the leading Skelton stable. Could be one to follow under rules. THE LIGHTMAKER (9) managed to place both outings in national hunt flat races last campaign. Brings plenty of potential to this debut over obstacles. Should be up to the task. JERRY THE DREAMER (4) landed a point-to-point at the second attempt in January and moved to the Neil Mulholland yard. Expected to make his presence felt. POTTER (7) is another point winner who clocked in fourth attempting a 3200m hurdle for this stable recently. May build upon that now.
