    Race Analysis

    KDEUX SAINT FRAY (3) enhanced his career record three weeks ago scoring by 3L among this chase company on soft ground tackling the trip at Cheltenham on second chase attempt. Open to further progress and ticks plenty of boxes. Leading contender. PLEASINGTON (1) went well on seasonal return last month when a close third in this chase grade over 1m7f at Wetherby. Big claims. CAPTAIN BUTLER (5) goes chasing for the first time following a 3. 25L runner-up effort in a 2m4f soft ground handicap hurdle at Ayr. Progress likely. GUARD THE MOON (4) might feature running for a notable stable on first chase start. Worth a market check.
