Leicester Race 6 - Pointing Pointers Dick And Pam Saunders Novices' Hunters' Chase

JUST LUCKY SIVOLA (4) is a fascinating recruit to the sphere having previously been seen as a progressive hurdler last season while with the Paul Nicholls stable. There is scope to take well to fences and rates highly against this lineup. PAUL MARVEL (6) chased home a well-touted Nicholls-trained contender on previous start which was a pleasing return under rules. Cheekpieces applied and is in the mix. Stablemate ST CUTHBERT'S CAVE (1) provided fine form prior to underperforming in a Ludlow contest last month. May well bounce back. IDEAL DU TABERT (3) is yet to score under rules. Holds ability to get involved. Something for the Multiples: BEST MATE DAVE (2)

Second-up today. Freshened for 61 days. Fresh up after nine months didn't finish the race at Alnwick on December 13 over 4000m. Previously second-up finished third in a small field at Sheriff Hutton on January 25 2025 over 4800m, 9 len behind Camdonian with 76kg. Fitter for run. Hard to fault on his best form.
