Fingers crossed for Haydock inspection.

If Haydock passes a second inspection at 10.30am then look forward to The Blue Square Gold Cup Chase at 3.35 which has the first six finishes in The Welsh National contesting this. Dream Alliance won that race and although Silver by Nature and Le Beau Bai, who finished second and third respectively that day, are likely to be joint favourites.Interestingly, there hasn’t been a winning favourite in the last seven runnings of this race and with this stat in his favour Dream Alliance has the class to win again.
At the same track in The Joseph Heler Cheese Hurdle at 2.30 Souffleur ran his best race for some time at Ascot a month ago and will appreciate this 3m 1f trip.
Selections:
Souffleur, 2.30 Haydock e/way 10/1.
Dream Alliance, 3.35 Haydock win 7/1.
