Newton Abbot Race 5 - William Hill Hcp Chase (Gbb Race)

MUSKERRY ROCK (2) improved his form finishing runner up both starts for the stable and a race of this nature looks well within his grasp. Could prove very hard to beat. BELGARUM (3) disappointed over course and distance three weeks ago. Seemed back to his best during the spring and cannot be taken lightly. Worth giving another chance. PRESENTANDCOUNTING (1) is a thoroughly likeable veteran who makes the long trip to Devon. Deserves the utmost respect tackling this realistic assignment. SLANEY OPERA (5) was given wind surgery prior to finishing well held at Bangor-On-Dee. Not out of it if well supported.
