Race Tip

CHALE CHALO (4) is racing consistently with two wins and two placed efforts last six attempts including losing out by 0. 5L placing second at Southwell AW on New Years Day. May go one better. FLIGHT CONTROL (3) was a good 3. 25L winner on debut at this venue before running third here. Then finished fifth on most recent appearance. Might bounce back making handicap debut. THREE NON BLONDES (1) was a good 3. 25L winner of a handicap at Wolverhampton but proved unable to follow up when fifth at Newcastle AW. Expected to challenge. FRENCH AFFAIR (7) cannot be discounted after placing second two starts back.
