Race preview

Newcomer Belguardo is related to plenty of winners, both on the Flat and over hurdles, and is well worth a market check ahead of his first run, but THE PLUMBER seems the more sensible option. He was only beaten a neck at Market Rasen on his first start under Rules last month and any improvement could see him get off the mark. Nigel Twiston-Davies runs both five-year-old Awesome Foursome and four-year-old Uncle Arthur, who are full-brothers bred and owned by their trainer, with a narrow preference for the older of the pair.
