Doncaster 4.25 1 Chancery - 1/2 point each way @ 13/2 /

Newbury 8.40 12 Singing Sands - 1/2 point each way @ 14/1

I think CHANCERY has a great chance in the 4.25 at Doncaster, the long straight should

suit him ideally and although not the horse he was David O'Meara is a master at placing regressive horses

to good effect. Many in this race would be happier with more cut in the ground whereas the selection is

far more ground versatile, and should burst on to the scene in the final furlong or so.

At Newbury in the

8.40, another track with a long straight; the somewhat enigmatic SINGING SANDS may benefit from a

drop to 7 furlongs. This looks like a "bridle horse" often travelling very well in to a race and then finding

very little, so the step down in trip and a race where it can get plenty of cover should be ideal and in

Jamie Spencer, probably the best option to coax the horse home with one late telling 100 yard run.

I would see Diable D'Or as a big danger but a draw in stall3 looks tricky and Another Boy is one due to

return to form, who could be the biggest danger.
