Race Tip

Just three runners contest. The Joe Tizzard-trained HORS JEU (2) could go one better after recording a nose second under Richard Patrick at Hereford two weeks ago. Big chance up in trip. Three-time hurdling winner STAR OF AFFINITY (1) rates the main danger following a solid second at Wincanton with Brendan Powell aboard in November. Worth considering as makes for plenty of appeal off an unchanged mark. WHERE'S CATO (3) opened her chasing account at the first time of asking when a 1. 75L winner over 2m7 3/4f at Huntingdon last month. Now two from three among this company. Warrants respect dropping back in distance.
