Race Tip

The in-form CALIMYSTIC (5) arrives seeking a hat-trick after a fine win at Sandown Park four weeks ago. This jumping test looks perfect for him and looks to continue the good run for his stable. BUMPY EVANS (6) is a free going sort who has been kept fresh for a summer campaign and if getting a free lead he could prove hard to stop. KAP OUEST (7) got off the mark over fences at Exeter four weeks ago by 5L and should be fine going around this tight track. Market will guide to the strength of his chance. NICKELFORCE (8) had been consistent and gained a deserved success at Wincanton in November. Major player.
