Race Tip

FRESH KICKS (3) begins his chasing career representing top connections. Second beaten 4. 5L on latest run attempting a Ludlow hurdle. Likes to make the running and could take some pegging back. HE KNOWS BETTER (4) conversely brings plenty of chasing experience already. Scored at Southwell (2m4 1/2f) getting the best of the argument on the run-in and is a chance to follow up. CAPTAIN BELLAMY (1) missed narrowly over course and distance in December. Held an official excuse for a reversal since and is a regular to the venue which could be an asset. EL CAPITAINE (2) is taking on decent company this season. Needs a return to his best however is very capable.
